Inspired by a recent article on Fr\'echet spaces of ordinary Dirichlet series $\sum a_n n^{-s}$ due to J.~Bonet, we study topological and geometrical properties of certain scales of Fr\'echet spaces of general Dirichlet spaces $\sum a_n…

We study higher uniformity properties of the M\"obius function $\mu$, the von Mangoldt function $\Lambda$, and the divisor functions $d_k$ on short intervals $(X,X+H]$ with $X^{\theta+\varepsilon} \leq H \leq X^{1-\varepsilon}$ for a fixed…

We show that for any $\epsilon<1$ and any $\mathcal{T}$ `drifting away from walls', Dirichlet's Theorem cannot be $\epsilon$-improved along $\mathcal{T}$ for Lebesgue almost every system of linear forms $Y$ (see the paper for definitions).…

We show that the $L^1$ norm of an exponential sum of length $X$ and with coefficients equal to the Liouville or M\"{o}bius function is at least $\gg_{\varepsilon} X^{1/4 - \varepsilon}$ for any given $\varepsilon$. For the Liouville…

Let $[a_1(x),a_2(x),\ldots, a_n(x), \ldots]$ be the continued fraction expansion of an irrational number $x\in (0, 1)$. The study of the growth rate of the product of consecutive partial quotients $a_n(x)a_{n+1}(x)$ is associated with the…

By a classical result of Weyl, for any increasing sequence $(n_k)_{k \geq 1}$ of integers the sequence of fractional parts $(\{n_k x\})_{k \geq 1}$ is uniformly distributed modulo 1 for almost all $x \in [0,1]$. Except for a few special…

We study multiplicative functions $f$ satisfying $|f(n)|\le 1$ for all $n$, the associated Dirichlet series $F(s):=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} f(n) n^{-s}$, and the summatory function $S_f(x):=\sum_{n\le x} f(n)$. Up to a possible trivial…

For a sequence $\{a_n\}_{n \geq 1} \subseteq (0, \infty)$ and a Dirichlet series $f(s) = \sum_{n=1}^\infty a_n n^{-s},$ let $\sigma_a(f)$ denote the abscissa of absolute convergence of $f$ and let \begin{equation} \delta_a(f): =…

Consider a multiplicative function f(n) taking values on the unit circle. Is it possible that the partial sums of this function are bounded? We show that if we weaken the notion of multiplicativity so that f(pn)=f(p)f(n) for all primes p in…

Let $\Delta(x)$ denote the error term in the Dirichlet divisor problem, and let $E(T)$ denote the error term in the asymptotic formula for the mean square of $|\zeta(1/2+it)|$. If $E^*(t) := E(t) - 2\pi\Delta^*(t/(2\pi))$ with $\Delta^*(x)…
