Motivated by a discrete inequality problem proposed by Duanyang Zhang as Problem 6 of the 2022 Spring NSMO, we prove a median version of Hardy's inequality. For a nonnegative function $f\in L^p(0,\infty)$, $p>1$, let $A(t)$ be the average…

We define a new rearrangement, called rearrangement by tamping, for non-negative measurable functions defined on R+. This rearrangement has many properties in common with the well-known Schwarz non-increasing rearrangement such as the…

In the thirties of the last century, I. M. Vinogradov established uniform distribution modulo 1 of the sequence $p\alpha$ when $\alpha$ is a fixed irrational real number and $p$ runs over the primes. In particular, he showed that the…

We consider a general class of sharp $L^p$ Hardy inequalities in $\R^N$ involving distance from a surface of general codimension $1\leq k\leq N$. We show that we can succesively improve them by adding to the right hand side a lower order…

In this note prove the following Berwald-type inequality, showing that for any integrable log-concave function $f:\mathbb R^n\rightarrow[0,\infty)$ and any concave function $h:L\rightarrow\mathbb [0,\infty)$, where $L$ is the epigraph of…

In this paper, we derive some new combinatorial inequalities by applying well known real analytic results like H\"{o}lder's inequality, Young's inequality, and Minkowiski's inequality to the recursively defined sequence $f_n$ of functions…

Let $0 < p < 2$. Let $\{X, X_{n}; n \geq 1\}$ be a sequence of independent and identically distributed $\mathbf{B}$-valued random variables and set $S_{n} = \sum_{i=1}^{n}X_{i},~n \geq 1$. In this paper, a supplement to the classical laws…

Typically, one expects that there are around x\prod_{p\not\in P, p <= x} (1-1/p) integers up to x, all of whose prime factors come from the set P. Of course for some choices of P one may get rather more integers, and for some choices of P…

For $p,q\geq2$, the Hardy and Littlewood inequalities for real bilinear forms, in its unified formulation, assert that there is a constant $C_{p,q}\geq1$ such that \begin{equation}…

In this paper, new upper and lower bounds for the Trapezoid inequality of absolutely continuous functions are obtained. Applications to some special means are provided as well.

We prove two inequalities for the Mittag-Leffler function, namely that the function $\log E_\alpha(x^\alpha)$ is sub-additive for $0<\alpha<1,$ and super-additive for $\alpha>1.$ These assertions follow from two new binomial inequalities,…

A pair of odd primes is said to be symmetric if each prime is congruent to one modulo their difference. A theorem from 1996 by Fletcher, Lindgren, and the third author provides an upper bound on the number of primes up to x that belong to a…

In this paper we obtain some novel identities involving trigonometric functions. Let $n$ be any positive odd integer. We show that $$\sum_{r=0}^{n-1}\frac1{1+\sin2\pi\frac{x+r}n+\cos2\pi\frac{x+r}n}…

Let k be a definable L-cardinal. Then there is a set of reals X, class-generic over L, such that L(X) and L have the same cardinals, X has size k in L(X) and some pi-1-2 formula defines X in all set-generic extensions of L(X). Two…

ABSTRACT. In this article we present a point of view that highlights the importance of finding the upper bounds for prime gaps, in order to solve the twin primes conjecture and the Goldbach conjecture. For this purpose, we present a…

We present a new form and a short full proof of explicit two-sided estimates for the distribution function F_{n,p}(x) of the binomial law from the paper published by D.Alfers and H.Dinges in 1984. These inequalities are universal (valid for…

Using an identity arising in the known Banach probability problem on matchboxes, we prove an unexpected congruence for odd prime $p:$ for $1\leq k\leq \frac{p-1}{2},\enskip \sum_{i=1}^{p-2k-1}2^{i-1}\binom{k-1+i}{k}\equiv 0\pmod p.$

We describe a new method of proving a priori bounds for positive supersolutions and solutions of superlinear elliptic PDE, based on global weak Harnack inequalities and a quantitative Hopf lemma. Novel results based on the method include:…

We prove several supercongruences involving the harmonic number of order two $H_n^{(2)}:=\sum_{k=1}^n1/k^2$. For example, if $p>5$ is prime and $\alpha$ is $p$-integral, then we can completely determine $$…

We show that the functions $\sum_{p\leq x} (\log p)/p - \log x - E$ and $\sum_{p\leq x} 1/p - \log \log x -B$ change sign infinitely often, and that under certain assumptions, they exhibit a strong bias towards positive values. These…
