The anti-maximum principle for the homogeneous Dirichlet problem to $-\Delta_p u = \lambda |u|^{p-2}u + f(x)$ with positive $f \in L^\infty(\Omega)$ states the existence of a critical value $\lambda_f > \lambda_1$ such that any solution of…

Let $u_n$ be a fixed non-degenerate binary recurrence sequence with positive discriminant, $w$ a fixed non-zero integer and $p_1,p_2,\dots,p_s$ fixed, distinct prime numbers. In this paper we consider the Diophantine equation $u_n+u_m=w…
In this paper, we obtain a sharp upper bound for the sum of the first $k$-th eigenvalues for this Dirichlet problem of poly-Laplacian with any order, which is viewed as an extension of the result due to Cheng and Wei (Journal of…
Let $d(n)$ be the number of divisors of $n$, let $$ \Delta(x) := \sum_{n\le x}d(n) - x(\log x + 2\gamma -1) $$ denote the error term in the classical Dirichlet divisor problem, and let $\zeta(s)$ denote the Riemann zeta-function. Several…

In Diophantine approximation, inhomogeneous problems are linked with homogeneous ones by means of the so-called Transference Theorems. We revisit this classical topic by introducing new exponents of Diophantine approximation. We prove that…
Let $(u_n)_{n \geq 0}$ be a non-degenerate Lucas sequence, given by the relation $u_n=a_1 u_{n-1}+a_2 u_{n-2}$. Let $\ell_u(m)=lcm(m, z_u(m))$, for $(m,a_2)=1$, where $z_u(m)$ is the rank of appearance of $m$ in $u_n$. We prove that…
Let D be a Dyck path chosen uniformly from the set of Dyck paths with 2n steps. We prove that the sequence of the exponential moments of the maximum of D normalized by the square root of n converges in the limit of infinite n, and therefore…
We consider the supercritical elliptic problem -\Delta u = \lambda e^u, \lambda > 0, in an exterior domain $\Omega = \mathbb{R}^N \setminus D$ under zero Dirichlet condition, where D is smooth and bounded in \mathbb{R}^N, N greater or equal…
In this article, we give an asymptotic bound for the exponential sum of the M\"obius function $\sum_{n \le x} \mu(n) e(\alpha n)$ for a fixed irrational number $\alpha\in\mathbb{R}$. This exponential sum was originally studied by Davenport…
We study the continuous part of the Dirichlet spectrum $\mathbb{D}$ and improve the best previously published upper bound for the ray-origin constant $\delta$. Building on and refining V. A. Ivanov's approach, we introduce a Cantor-type set…
Haken proved that every resolution refutation of the pigeonhole formula has at least exponential size. Groote and Zantema proved that a particular OBDD computation of the pigeonhole formula has an exponential size. Here we show that any…
We prove a lower bound on the eigenvalues $\lambda_k$, $k\in\mathbb{N}$, of the Dirichlet Laplacian of a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ of volume $V$: $$ \lambda_k \geq C_n\bigg( \delta\frac{k}{V}\bigg)^{2/n} $$ where $\delta$…
Let lambda_1, \lambda_2, \lambda_3, \lambda_4 be non-zero real numbers, not all negative, with \lambda_1/\lambda_2 irrational and algebraic. Suppose that \mathcal{V} is a well-spaced sequence and \delta >0. In this paper, it is proved that…
