We study the problem of determining elements of the Selberg class by information on the coefficents of the Dirichlet series at the squares of primes, or information about the zeroes of the functions.

We present a new algorithm to decide isomorphism between finite graded algebras. For a broad class of nilpotent Lie algebras, we demonstrate that it runs in time polynomial in the order of the input algebras. We introduce heuristics that…

Gowers norms have been studied extensively both in the direct sense, starting with a function and understanding the associated norm, and in the inverse sense, starting with the norm and deducing properties of the function. Instead of…

We give a simple and short proof of the classical Lebesgue decomposition theorem of measures via the Riesz orthogonal decomposition theorem of Hilbert spaces. The tools we employ are elementary Hilbert space techniques.

We survey the classical results of the Dirichlet Approximation Theorem.

The LU-decomposition of Lehmer's tridiagonal matrix is first guessed, then proved, which leads to an evaluation of the determinant.

We give a new and simple proof of a theorem of Garza estimating the height (or Mahler measure) of an algebraic number with real conjugates.

It is the first paper which relates Ap\'ery limits to Mahler measures.

The Mahler measure of a function on the real d-torus is its geometric mean over the torus. It appears in number theory, ergodic theory and other fields. The Fuglede-Kadison determinant is defined in the context of von Neumann algebra theory…

This text grew out of notes I have used in teaching a one quarter course on integration at the advanced undergraduate level. My intent is to introduce the Lebesgue integral in a quick, and hopefully painless, way and then go on to…

For a class of orthogonal polynomials related to the $q$-Meixner polynomials corresponding to an indeterminate moment problem we give a one-parameter family of orthogonality measures. For these measures we complement the orthogonal…

Certain generalization of Euler numbers was defined in 1935 by Lehmer using cubic roots of unity, as a natural generalization of Bernoulli and Euler numbers. In this paper, Lehmer's generalized Euler numbers are studied to give certain…

Analogs of Laguerre and Meixner orthogonal polynomials in the algebra of symmetric functions are studied. This is a detailed exposition of part of the results announced in arXiv:1009.2037. The work is motivated by a connection with a model…

We give the best possible lower bounds in order of magnitude for the number of positive and negative Hecke eigenvalues. This improves upon a recent work of Kohnen, Lau & Shparlinski. Also, we study an analogous problem for short intervals.

We prove several identities relating three-variable Mahler measures to integrals of inverse trigonometric functions. After deriving closed forms for most of these integrals, we obtain ten explicit formulas for three-variable Mahler…

In this paper, we estimate the linear independence measures for the values of a class Mahler functions of degree one and two. For the purpose, we study the determinants of suitable Hermite-Pad\'{e} approximation polynomials. Based on the…

Lehmer defined a measure $$ \mu=\sum\limits_{j=1}^J\frac{1}{\log_{10}\left(\left|\beta_j\right|\right)}, $$ where the $\beta_j$ may be either integers or rational numbers in a Machin-like formula for $\pi$. When the $\beta_j$ are integers,…

In this article we propose a revisitation of the well-known argument principle that may lead to the solution of the Riemann hypothesis. We are looking for collaborators.

We discuss a certain Riemannian metric, related to the toric Kahler-Einstein equation, that is associated in a linearly-invariant manner with a given log-concave measure in R^n. We use this metric in order to bound the second derivatives of…

This is the second part of a work devoted to the study of linear Mahler systems in several variables from the perspective of transcendence and algebraic independence. From the lifting theorem obtained in the first part, we first derive a…
