We establish a generalization of Bourgain double recurrence theorem by proving that for any map $T$ acting on a probability space $(X,\mathcal{A},\mu)$, and for any non-constant polynomials $P, Q$ mapping natural numbers to themselves, for…

Let $S$ be a dense subring of the real numbers. In this paper we prove a polynomial version of Van der Waerden's theorem near zero. In fact, we prove that if $p_1,\ldots,p_m \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ are polynomials such that $p_i(0) = 0$ and…

For the Gaussian and Laguerre random matrix ensembles, the probability density function (p.d.f.) for the linear statistic $\sum_{j=1}^N (x_j - <x>)$ is computed exactly and shown to satisfy a central limit theorem as $N \to \infty$. For the…

We study a certain class of arithmetic functions that appeared in Klurman's classification of $\pm 1$ multiplicative functions with bounded partial sums, c.f., Comp. Math. 153 (8), 2017, pp. 1622-1657. These functions are periodic and…

Consider a random polynomial $P_n$ of degree $n$ whose roots are independent random variables sampled according to some probability distribution $\mu_0$ on the complex plane $\mathbb C$. It is natural to conjecture that, for a fixed $t\in…

We establish several results concerning the expected general phenomenon that, given a multiplicative function $f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{C}$, the values of $f(n)$ and $f(n+a)$ are "generally" independent unless $f$ is of a "special" form.…

Consider the well-known Langevin diffusion on $\mathbb{R}^d$ $$\mathrm{d} X_t = -\nabla U(X_t)\,\mathrm{d} t + \sqrt{2}\mathrm{d} B_t, $$ and its Euler-Maruyama discretization given by $$X_{k+1}=X_k-\eta \nabla U(X_k)+\sqrt{2\eta…

The well-known Chowla and Zassenhaus conjecture, proven by Cohen in 1990, states that if $p>(d^2-3d+4)^2$, then there is no complete mapping polynomial $f$ in $\Fp[x]$ of degree $d\ge 2$. For arbitrary finite fields $\Fq$, a similar…
