The paper deals with the {\it infinitesimal Hilbert 16th problem}: to find an upper estimate of the number of zeros of an Abelian integral regarded as a function of a parameter. In more details, consider a real polynomial $ H$ of degree $…

We consider a generalized Takagi function for beta-expansions with the base $1<\beta\leq2$, motivated by multifractal analysis for digit frequency sets of beta-expansions [20]. We show that it is pointwise $\alpha$-H\"older continuous for…

Many Dirichlet series of number theoretic interest can be written as a product of generating series $\zeta_{\,d,a}(s)=\prod\limits_{p\equiv a\pmod{d}}(1-p^{-s})^{-1}$, with $p$ ranging over all the primes in the primitive residue class…

It is observed that the infinite matrix with entries $(\sqrt{mn}\log (mn))^{-1}$ for $m, n\ge 2$ appears as the matrix of the integral operator $\mathbf{H}f(s):=\int_{1/2}^{+\infty}f(w)(\zeta(w+s)-1)dw$ with respect to the basis…

Let $A$ be a $0$-sectorial operator with a bounded $H^\infty(\Sigma\_\sigma)$-calculus for some $\sigma \in (0,\pi),$ e.g. a Laplace type operator on $L^p(\Omega),\: 1 < p < \infty,$ where $\Omega$ is a manifold or a graph. We show that $A$…

If $f:{\bf R}^d\to{\bf C}$ is bounded and $f$'s H\"older $\alpha$-modulus of continuity grows no faster than $(1+\vert x\vert)^M$ ($M\geq0$) then, for every $\epsilon>0$, there is a $\beta>0$ such that $f$'s H\"older $\beta$-modulus grows…

Let $I, J\subset \mathbb{R}$ be closed intervals, and let $H$ be $C^{3}$ smooth real valued function on $I\times J$ with nonvanishing $H_{x}$ and $H_{y}$. Take any fixed positive numbers $a,b$, and let $d\mu$ be a probability measure with…

We determine new bounds on the entries of Gorenstein Hilbert functions, both in any fixed codimension and asymptotically. Our first main theorem is a lower bound for the degree $i+1$ entry of a Gorenstein $h$-vector, in terms of its entry…

It is an open problem in additive number theory to compute and understand the full range of sumset sizes of finite sets of integers, that is, the set $\mathcal{R}_{\mathbf{Z}}(h,k)= \{|hA|:A \subseteq {\mathbf{Z}} \text{ and } |A|=k\}$ for…

Let $A$ be a multiplicative subgroup of $\mathbb Z_p^*$. Define the $k$-fold sumset of $A$ to be $kA=\{x_1+\dots+x_k:x_i \in A,1\leq i\leq k\}$. We show that $6A\supseteq \mathbb Z_p^*$ for $|A| > p^{\frac {11}{23} +\epsilon}$. In addition,…

Let $a>1$ be an integer. Denote by $l_a(n)$ the multiplicative order of $a$ modulo integer $n\geq 1$. We prove that there is a positive constant $\delta$ such that if $x^{1-\delta}\log^3 x = o(y)$, then $$ \frac1y \sum_{a<y} \frac1x…

We mainly establish a monotonicity property between some special Riemann sums of a convex function $f$ on $[a,b]$, which in particular yields that $\frac{b-a}{n+1}\sum_{i=0}^n f\left(a+i\frac{b-a}{n}\right)$ is decreasing while…

We prove the conjecture by Gyenge, N\'emethi and Szendr\H{o}i in arXiv:1512.06844, arXiv:1512.06848 giving a formula of the generating function of Euler numbers of Hilbert schemes of points $\operatorname{Hilb}^n(\mathbb C^2/\Gamma)$ on a…

Let $\theta$ and $\rho$ be real numbers with $0 \le \theta, \rho < 1$ and $\theta$ irrational. We show that the Hecke-Mahler series $$ F_{\theta, \rho} (z_1, z_2) = \sum_{k_1 \ge 1} \, \sum_{k_2 = 1}^{\lfloor k_1 \theta + \rho \rfloor} \,…

Given a subspace $U\subset\mathbb{C}[x_1,\dots,x_n]_d$ we consider the closure of the image of the rational map $\mathbb{P}^{n-1}\dashrightarrow\mathbb{P}^{\dim U-1}$ given by $U$. Its coordinate ring is isomorphic to $\bigoplus_{i\ge 0}…

This paper generalizes the classical Sz.-Nagy--Foias $H^{\infty}(\mathbb{D})$ functional calculus for Hilbert space contractions. In particular, we replace the single contraction $T$ with a tuple $T=(T_1, \dots, T_d)$ of commuting bounded…

In the proof of the classical Borel lemma \cite{eB} by Hayman \cite{wkH}, each continuous increasing function $T(r)\geq1$ satisfies $T\bigl(r+\frac{1}{T(r)}\bigr)<2T(r)$ outside a possible exceptional set of linear measure $2$. We note in…

We prove that, for any finite set $A \subset \mathbb Q$ with $|AA| \leq K|A|$ and any positive integer $k$, the $k$-fold product set of the shift $A+1$ satisfies the bound $$| \{(a_1+1)(a_2+1) \cdots (a_k+1) : a_i \in A \}| \geq…
