We establish the existence of a regular functional $M$-position, in the sense of Pisier, for geometric log-concave functions. This provides a functional analogue of Pisier's regular $M$-positions for convex bodies and yields uniform control…

We study a class of 2-variable polynomials called exact polynomials which contains $A$-polynomials of knot complements. The Mahler measure of these polynomials can be computed in terms of a volume function defined on the vanishing set of…

We establish the \emph{inverse conjecture for the Gowers norm over finite fields}, which asserts (roughly speaking) that if a bounded function $f: V \to \C$ on a finite-dimensional vector space $V$ over a finite field $\F$ has large Gowers…

We show that Lieb's concavity theorem holds more generally for any unitarily invariant matrix function $\phi:\mathbf{H}^n_+\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ that is monotone and concave. Concretely, we prove the joint concavity of the function $(A,B)…

In this paper necessary and sufficient conditions are deduced for the close-to-convexity of some special combinations of Bessel functions of the first kind and their derivatives by using a result of Shah and Trimble about transcendental…

We prove some new instances of a conjecture of Bachoc, Couvreur and Z\'emor that generalizes Freiman's $3k-4$ Theorem to a multiplicative version in a function field setting. As a consequence we find that if $F$ is a rational function field…

The notion of the H\"older convolution is introduced. The main result is that, under general conditions on functions L_1, ..., L_n, the function inverse to the Legendre--Fenchel transform of the H\"older convolution of L_1, ..., L_n…

Our purpose here is to give an overview of known results and open questions concerning the volume product ${\mathcal P}(K)=\min_{z\in K}{\rm vol}(K){\rm vol}((K-z)^*)$ of a convex body $K$ in ${\mathbb R}^n$. We present a number of upper…

Let $\Omega\subset \R^n$ be a bounded convex domain and $\phi\in C(\bar\Omega)$ be a convex function such that $\phi$ is sufficiently smooth on $\partial\Omega$ and the Monge--Amp\`ere measure $\det D^2\phi$ is bounded away from zero and…

We give the sharp lower bound of the volume product of $n$-dimensional convex bodies which are invariant under a discrete subgroup $SO(K)=\{ g \in SO(n); g(K)=K \}$, where $K$ is an $n$-cube or $n$-simplex. This provides new partial results…

In this research article, we formulate and prove multidimensional Widder--Arendt theorem and integrated form of multidimensional Widder--Arendt theorem for functions with values in sequentially complete locally convex spaces. Established…

The Conjecture of Lehmer is proved to be true. The proof mainly relies upon: (i) the properties of the Parry Upper functions $f_{\house{\alpha}}(z)$ associated with the dynamical zeta functions $\zeta_{\house{\alpha}}(z)$ of the…

We consider the functional given by the product of the first Dirichlet eigenvalue and the torsional rigidity of planar domains normalized by the area. This scale invariant functional was studied by P\'olya and Szeg\H{o} in 1951 who showed…

In this paper, we unify and improve existing results on characterizing strict and almost stricty convex functions via subdifferential mapping, Moreau envelope, and proximal mappings. In particular, it is shown that if a convex function is…

Following the prequel work \cite{VO3}, we prove a generalization of "Mazur's conjecture" for $L$-functions of elliptic curves in abelian extensions of imaginary quadratic fields, including the assertion that the Mordell-Weil rank of an…

We show that for multivariate Freud-type weights $W_\alpha(x)=\exp(-|x|^\alpha)$, $\alpha>1$, any convex function $f$ on $R^d$ satisfying $fW_\alpha\in L_p(R^d)$ if $1\le p<\infty$, or $\lim_{|x|\to\infty}f(x)W_\alpha(x)=0$ if $p=\infty$,…

We prove a general result relating the shape of the Euler product of an $L$-function to the analytic properties of certain linear twists of the $L$-function itself. Then, by a sharp form of the transformation formula for linear twists, we…

Given a function $f$ defined on a nonempty and convex subset of the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space, we prove that if $f$ is bounded from below and it satisfies a convexity-type functional inequality with infinite convex combinations, then…

Let $f$ and $g$ be holomorphic or Maass cusp forms for $\rm SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ and let $\chi$ be a primitive Dirichlet character of prime power conductor $q=p^n$. For any given $\varepsilon>0$, we establish the following subconvexity bound…

We investigate the log-concavity on the half-line of the Wright function $\phi(-\alpha,\beta,-x),$ in the probabilistic setting $\alpha\in (0,1)$ and $\beta \ge 0.$ Applications are given to the construction of generalized entropies…
