Let $d,n$ be positive integers and $S$ be an arbitrary set of positive integers. We say that $d$ is an $S$-divisor of $n$ if $d|n$ and gcd $(d,n/d)\in S$. Consider the $S$-convolution of arithmetical functions given by (1.1), where the sum…

Consider a subset $A$ of $\mathbb{F}_p^n$ and a decomposition of its indicator function as the sum of two bounded functions $1_A=f_1+f_2$. For every family of linear forms, we find the smallest degree of uniformity $k$ such that assuming…

Let n be a non-null positive integer and $d(n)$ is the number of positive divisors of n, called the divisor function. Of course, $d(n) \leq n$. $d(n) = 1$ if and only if $n = 1$. For $n > 2$ we have $d(n) \geq 2$ and in this paper we try to…

We study the rate of growth of entire functions that are distributionally irregular for the differentiation operator D. More specifically, given $p \in [1,\infty ]$ and $b \in (0,a)$, where $a = \frac{1}{2 max\{2,p\}}$, we prove that there…

Let $u_\e$ be a solution to the system $$ \mathrm{div}(A_\e(x) \nabla u_{\e}(x))=0 \text{\ in} D, \qquad u_{\e}(x)=g(x,x/\e) \text{\ on}\partial D, $$ where $D \subset \R^d $ ($d \geq 2$), is a smooth uniformly convex domain, and $g$ is…

Let $(X_1,\ldots,X_n)$ be an i.i.d. sequence of random variables in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 1$. We show that, for any function $\varphi :\mathbb{R}^d\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$, under regularity conditions, \[n^…

In [7], Kwapie\'{n} announced that every mean zero function $f\in L_\infty[0,1]$ can be written as a coboundary $f = g\circ T -g$ for some $g\in L_\infty[0,1]$ and some measure preserving transformation $T$ of $[0,1]$. Whereas the original…

In this paper, we study properties of Weil height functions associated with numerically trivial divisors. It helps us to define the fractional limit of $h_E$ with respect to $h_D$ on $U$, with $D$ ample: \[ \Flim_D(E,U) :=…

We investigate the density properties of generalized divisor functions $\displaystyle f_s(n)=\frac{\sum_{d|n}d^s}{n^s}$ and extend the analysis from the already-proven density of $s=1$ to $s\geq0$. We demonstrate that for every $s>0$, $f_s$…

For a class $F$ of complex-valued functions on a set $D$, we denote by $g_n(F)$ its sampling numbers, i.e., the minimal worst-case error on $F$, measured in $L_2$, that can be achieved with a recovery algorithm based on $n$ function…

Let $f$ be a real-valued $1$-bounded multiplicative function. Suppose that the mean-value of $f^{2}$ exists, and $$\int_{0}^{1} \Big | \sum_{n \leq N} f(n)e^{2\pi i n \alpha} \Big | d \alpha\leq N^{o(1)}$$ as $N \rightarrow \infty$, then…

In this paper, we propose $\ell_p$-norm regularized models to seek near-optimal sparse portfolios. These sparse solutions reduce the complexity of portfolio implementation and management. Theoretical results are established to guarantee the…

We consider the spaces $A_p(\mathbb T)$ of functions $f$ on the circle $\mathbb T$ such that the sequence of Fourier coefficients $\fu{\f}=\{\fu{\f}(k), ~k \in \mathbb Z\}$ belongs to $l^p, ~1\leq p<2$. The norm on $A_p(\mathbb T)$ is…

This study proposes a unified stochastic framework for approximating and computing the gradient of every smooth function evaluated at non-independent variables, using $\ell_p$-spherical distributions on $\R^d$ with $d, p\geq 1$. The…

Let $p(n)$ denote the partition function. In this paper our main goal is to derive an asymptotic expansion up to order $N$ (for any fixed positive integer $N$) along with estimates for error bounds for the shifted quotient of the partition…

We study the elliptic maximal functions defined by averages over ellipses and rotated ellipses which are multi-parametric variants of the circular maximal function. We prove that those maximal functions are bounded on $L^p$ for some $p\neq…

Despite their success, kernel methods suffer from a massive computational cost in practice. In this paper, in lieu of commonly used kernel expansion with respect to $N$ inputs, we develop a novel optimal design maximizing the entropy among…

We prove $L^p$ boundedness results, $p > 2$, for local maximal averaging operators over a smooth 2D hypersurface $S$ with either a $C^1$ density function or a density function with a singularity that grows as $|(x,y)|^{-\beta}$ for $\beta <…
