We use a special version of the Corona Theorem in several variables, valid when all but one of the data functions are smooth, to generalize to the polydisc and to the ball results obtained by El Fallah, Kellay and Seip about cyclicity of…

Linear forms in logarithms over connected commutative algebraic groups over the algebraic numbers field have been studied widely. However, the theory of linear forms in logarithms over noncommutative algebraic groups have not been developed…

The aim of this paper is to give linear independence results for the values of certain series. As an application, we derive arithmetical properties of the sums of reciprocals of Fibonacci and Lucas numbers associated with certain coprime…

The finite n-th polylogarithm li_n(z) in Z/p[z] is defined as the sum on k from 1 to p-1 of z^k/k^n. We state and prove the following theorem. Let Li_k:C_p to C_p be the p-adic polylogarithms defined by Coleman. Then a certain linear…

Let $K/\mathbb Q$ be a finite Galois extension. Let $\chi_1,\ldots,\chi_r$ be $r\geq 1$ distinct characters of the Galois group with the associated Artin L-functions $L(s,\chi_1),\ldots, L(s,\chi_r)$. Let $m\geq 0$. We prove that the…

Let $L(s,\chi)$ be a fixed Dirichlet $L$-function. Given a vertical arithmetic progression of $T$ points on the line $\Re(s)=1/2$, we show that $\gg T \log T$ of them are not zeros of $L(s,\chi)$. This result provides some theoretical…

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.…

Let $f$ be an entire function and $L(f)$ a linear differential polynomial in $f$ with constant coefficients. Suppose that $f$, $f'$, and $L(f)$ share a meromorphic function $\alpha(z)$ that is a small function with respect to $f$. A…

We establish new measures of linear independence of logarithms on commutative algebraic groups in the so-called \emph{rational case}. More precisely, let k be a number field and v_{0} be an arbitrary place of k. Let G be a commutative…

In the function field setting with a fixed characteristic, it was proven by the second and third authors that the values $\log \big|L\big(\frac12, \chi_D\big)\big|$ as $D$ varies over monic and square-free polynomials are asymptotically…

Let $p_1,...,p_L\in Z[x_1,...,x_d]$ be non-constant polynomials with zero constant term. The ergodic theoretical proofs of the polynomial and the IP-polynomial Szemeredi theorems as well as some of the ergodic-theoretical and combinatorial…

We describe constructions of extended formulations that establish a certain relaxed version of the Hirsch conjecture and prove that if there is a pivot rule for the simplex algorithm for which one can bound the number of steps by a…

We consider the joint value distribution of Dirichlet $L$-functions in the critical strip $\frac{1}{2} < \sigma < 1$. We show that the values of distinct Dirichlet $L$-functions are dependent in the sense that they do not behave like…

We construct a complex entire function with arbitrary number of variables which has the following property: The infinite set consisting of all the values of all its partial derivatives of any orders at all algebraic points, including zero…

Abs-smooth functions are given by compositions of smooth functions and the evaluation of the absolute value. The linear independence kink qualification (LIKQ) is a fundamental assumption in optimization problems governed by these abs-smooth…

Let $H_n =\sum\limits_{k=1}^n \frac{1}{k}$ be the $n$-th harmonic number. Euler extended it to complex arguments and defined $H_r$ for any complex number $r$ except for the negative integers. In this paper, we give a new proof of the…

The presence of symmetries is one of the central structural features that make some integer programs challenging for state-of-the-art solvers. In this work, we study the efficacy of Linear Programming (LP) hierarchies in the presence of…
