Let $f$ be an arithmetic function satisfying some simple conditions. The aim of this paper is to establish an asymptotical formula for the quantity \[ S_f(x):=\sum_{n\leq x}\frac{f([x/n])}{[x/n]} \] as $x\rightarrow\infty$, where $[t]$ is…
We prove bounds for the absolute sum of all level-$k$ Fourier coefficients for $(-1)^{p(x)}$, where polynomial $p:\mathbf{F}_2^n \to \mathbf{F}_2$ is of degree $1$ or degree $2$.
In a recent study, H. Alzer and the author showed that the sine polynomial $$ \sum_{k=1}^{n-1} \left( \frac{n}{k} - \frac{k}{n} \right) ^\beta \,\sin(kx) > 0 $$ is nonnegative for $ x\in[0,\pi ] $, $ n\geq 2, \, \beta \geq \beta _1 :=…
In this paper we further study the relationship between convexity and additive growth, building on the work of Schoen and Shkredov (\cite{SS}) to get some improvements to earlier results of Elekes, Nathanson and Ruzsa (\cite{ENR}). In…
Let $f(z) = \sum A(n) n^{(k-1)/2} e(nz)$ be a cusp form of weight $k \geq 3$ on $\Gamma_0(N)$ with character $\chi$. By studying a certain shifted convolution sum, we prove that $\sum_{n \leq X} A(n^2+h) = c_{f,h} X +…
We construct a Cartesian product G x H for finite simple graphs. It satisfies the Kuenneth formula: H^k(G x H) is a direct sum of tensor products H^i(G) x H^j(G) with i+j=k and so p(G x H,x) = p(G,x) p(H,y) for the Poincare polynomial…
Motivated by applications in number theory, analysis, and fractal geometry, we consider regularity properties and dimensions of graphs associated with Fourier series of the form $F(t)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty f(n)e^{2\pi i nt}/n$, for a large…
We consider the problem of evaluating certain exponential sums. These sums take the form $\sum_{x_1,...,x_n \in Z_N} e^{f(x_1,...,x_n) {2 \pi i / N}} $, where each x_i is summed over a ring Z_N, and f(x_1,...,x_n) is a multivariate…
In this paper we study a family of polynomials $$S_n^{(m)}(x):=\sum_{i,j=0}^n\binom ni^m\binom nj^m\binom{i+j}ix^{i+j}\ \ (m,n=0,1,2,\ldots).$$ For example, we show that $$\sum_{k=0}^{p-1}S_k^{(0)}(x)\equiv\frac…
Let $G$ be a graph on $n$ vertices and $1 \le k \le n$ a fixed integer. The \textit{$k$-token graph} of $G$ is the graph $F_k(G)$ whose vertex set consists of all $k$-subsets of the vertex set of $G$, where two vertices $A$ and $B$ are…
We are looking for integer numbers $g_{j}$ and $x_{j}$ ($j=1,...,n$) such that the sums $T_{\pi} := \sum_{j=1}^{n} g_{j} \cdot x_{\pi\left( j\right) }$ are different for all permutations $\pi\in S_{n}$ and $\max\left\{T_{\pi}:\pi\in…
We are interested in finding an explicit estimate to the binomial sum $Q_n(x)=\sum_{k=0}^{n} k! {n\choose k}^2 (-x)^{k}$ at $x=1$ for $n=0,1,2,\ldots$. Despite of its own interest the polynomial $Q_n(x)$ is important as the denominator in…
By using computers to do experimental manipulations on Fourier series, we construct additional series with interesting properties. We construct several series whose sums remain unchanged when the $n^{th}$ term is multiplied by $\sin(n)/n$.…
We study truncation compatible families F = (F_m)_{m>=1} over Q[z] through an inverse limit formalism, and we evaluate them at the punctured cyclotomic cosine points alpha_{k,n} = cos(2 pi k/n) with the specialization z equals n-1. For…
We consider circulant graphs G(r,N) where the vertices are the integers modulo N and the neighbours of 0 are {-r,...,-1,1,...,r}. The energy of G(r,N) is a trigonometric sum of N*r terms. For low values of r we compute this sum explicitly.…
In this article, we present a geometrical proof of sum of $\cos n\varphi$ where $n$ goes from $1$ up to $m$. Although there exist some summation forms and the proofs are simple, they use complex numbers. Our proof comes from a geometrical…
We prove Berry-Esseen theorems and the almost sure invariance principle with rates for partial sums of the form $S_n=\sum_{j=0}^{n-1}f_j\circ T_{j-1}\circ\cdots\circ T_1\circ T_0$ where $f_j$ are functions with uniformly bounded…
Suppose that a continuous on the real axis $2\pi$-periodic function $f$ changes its convexity at $2s,\ s\in\Bbb N,$ points $y_i$ on each period: $-\pi\le y_{2s}<y_{2s-1}<...<y_1<\pi,$ and for the rest $i\in\Bbb Z,$ the points $y_i$ are…
We introduce a rigorous arithmetic--spectral construction associating planar geometric objects with additive prime factor statistics. Let $\mathrm{sopfr}(n)$ denote the sum of prime factors of $n$, counted with multiplicity, and define the…
The Riemann-Lebesque Theorem is commonly proved in a few strokes using the theory of Lebesque integration. Here, the upper bound $2\pi|c_k(f)|\le S_k(f)-s_k(f)$ for the Fourier coefficients $c_k$ is proved in terms of majoring and minoring…
