We find arbitrarily large configurations of irreducible polynomials over finite fields that are separated by low degree polynomials. Our proof adapts an argument of Pintz from the integers, in which he combines the methods of…

Let $K$ be a number field, let $\phi \in K(t)$ be a rational map of degree at least 2, and let $\alpha, \beta \in K$. We show that if $\alpha$ is not in the forward orbit of $\beta$, then there is a positive proportion of primes ${\mathfrak…

Let $f(x)$ be a real function which has $(n+1)$-th derivative on an interval $[a, b]$. For any point $x_0\in (a, b)$ and any integer $0\leq k\leq n$, denote by $S_{k,x_0}(x)$ the $k$-th truncation of the Taylor expansion of $f(x)$ at $x_0$,…

We establish $L^p$-type universal approximation theorems for general and non-anticipative functionals on suitable rough path spaces, showing that linear functionals acting on signatures of time-extended rough paths are dense with respect to…

Let K be a p-adic field (a finite extension of some Q_p) and let K(t) be the field of rational functions over K. We define a kind of quadratic reciprocity symbol for polynomials over K and apply it to prove isotropy for a certain class of…

In this paper, we discuss asymptotic relations for the approximation of $\left\vert x\right\vert ^{\alpha},\alpha>0$ in $L_{\infty}\left[ -1,1\right] $ by Lagrange interpolation polynomials based on the zeros of the Chebyshev polynomials of…

Recent work has shown the surprising power of low-degree sandwiching polynomial approximators in the context of challenging learning settings such as learning with distribution shift, testable learning, and learning with contamination. A…

We consider exceptional APN functions on ${\bf F}_{2^m}$, which by definition are functions that are not APN on infinitely many extensions of ${\bf F}_{2^m}$. Our main result is that polynomial functions of odd degree are not exceptional,…

We study the Lusin approximation problem for real-valued measurable functions on Carnot groups. We prove that k-approximate differentiability almost everywhere is equivalent to admitting a Lusin approximation by $C^{k}_{\mathbb{G}}$ maps.…

We establish the Level-1 and Level-3 Large Deviation Principles (LDPs) for invariant measures on shift spaces over finite alphabets under very general decoupling conditions for which the thermodynamic formalism does not apply. Such…

Given sufficiently many components, it is often cited that finite mixture models can approximate any other probability density function (pdf) to an arbitrary degree of accuracy. Unfortunately, the nature of this approximation result is…

We prove that the logarithm of an arbitrary tau-function of the KdV hierarchy can be approximated, in the topology of graded formal series by the logarithmic expansions of hyperelliptic theta-functions of finite genus, up to at most…

This paper came to existence out of the desire to understand iterations of strictly triangular polynomial maps over finite fields. This resulted in two connected results: First, we give a generalization of $\F_p$-actions on $\F_p^n$ and…

We find uniform with respect to parameter $p \ (1\leq p\leq\infty)$ upper estimations of best approximations by trigonometric polynomials of classes $C^{\psi}_{\beta,p}$ of periodic functions generated by sequences $\psi(k)$, that decrease…

We consider the problem of defining polynomials over function fields of positive characteristic. Among other results, we show that the following assertions are true. 1. Let $\G_p$ be an algebraic extension of a field of $p$ elements and…

We present a rigorous convergence analysis for cylindrical approximations of nonlinear functionals, functional derivatives, and functional differential equations (FDEs). The purpose of this analysis is twofold: first, we prove that…

We obtain matching direct and inverse theorems for the degree of weighted $L_p$-approximation by polynomials with the Jacobi weights $(1-x)^\alpha (1+x)^\beta$. Combined, the estimates yield a constructive characterization of various…

Let $\ell$ be an odd prime, $q$ an odd prime power such that $q \not\equiv 0 \pmod \ell$, and $m$ the order of $q$ in $\F_\ell^\times$. We propose an explicit $L$-polynomial of hyperelliptic function field $K:=\F_q(T,…

We establish a new asymptotic formula for the number of polynomials of degree $n$ with $k$ prime factors over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. The error term tends to $0$ uniformly in $n$ and in $q$, and $k$ can grow beyond $\log n$.…

Let $f$ be a positive multiplicative function and let $k\geq 2$ be an integer. We prove that if the prime values $f(p)$ converge to $1$ sufficiently slowly as $p\rightarrow +\infty$, in the sense that $\sum_{p}|f(p)-1|=\infty$, there exists…
