We investigate when a linear functional $L$ defined on a linear subspace $B$ of a unital commutative real algebra $A$ admits an integral representation w.r.t. a positive Radon measure supported on a closed subset $K$ of the character space…

Given $d \in \mathbb{N}$, we establish sum-product estimates for finite, non-empty subsets of $\mathbb{R}^d$. This is equivalent to a sum-product result for sets of diagonal matrices. In particular, let $A$ be a finite, non-empty set of $d…

Sufficient conditions characterizing the asymptotic stability and the hybrid $L_1/\ell_1$-gain of linear positive impulsive systems under minimum and range dwell-time constraints are obtained. These conditions are stated as…

A new sufficient condition for a list of real numbers to be the spectrum of a symmetric doubly stochastic matrix is presented; this is a contribution to the classical spectral inverse problem for symmetric doubly stochastic matrices that is…

For any real $k\geq 2$ and large prime $q$, we prove a lower bound on the $2k$-th moment of the Dirichlet character sum \begin{equation*} \frac{1}{\phi(q)} \sum_{\substack{\chi \text{ mod }q\\ \chi\neq \chi_0}} \Big| \sum_{n\leq x}…

If a sequence $(a_n)$ of non-negative real numbers has ``best possible'' distribution in arithmetic progressions, Bombieri showed that one can deduce an asymptotic formula for the sum $\sum_{n\le x} a_n \Lambda_k(n)$ for $k\ge 2$. By…

We improve the best known sum-product estimates over the reals. We prove that \[ \max(|A+A|,|AA|)\geq |A|^{\frac{4}{3} + \frac{2}{1167} - o(1)}\,, \] for a finite $A\subset \mathbb R$, following a streamlining of the arguments of Solymosi,…

An effective method for generating linear equations of maximal symmetry in their much general normal form is obtained. In the said normal form, the coefficients of the equation are differential functions of the coefficient of the term of…

We study lower bounds for the Minkowski and Hausdorff dimensions of the algebraic sum E+K of two subsets E and K of d-dimensional Euclidean space.

Given a pseudomonad $\mathcal{T} $, we prove that a lax $\mathcal{T} $-morphism between pseudoalgebras is a $\mathcal{T} $-pseudomorphism if and only if there is a suitable (possibly non-canonical) invertible $\mathcal{T} $-transformation.…

By calculating the O(\alpha_s) corrections to inclusive heavy-to-light sum rules we find model independent upper and lower bounds on form factors for B to pi and B to rho. We use the bounds to rule out model predictions. Some models violate…

In this paper, we prove the existence of positive solutions $(\lambda_1,\lambda_2, u,v)\in \R^2\times H^1(\R^N, \R^2)$ to the following coupled Schr\"odinger system $$\begin{cases} -\Delta u + \lambda_1 u= \mu_1|u|^{p-2}u+\beta v \quad…

A sequence of positive integers $(a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_k)$ is called $\ell$-additive if $a_1+a_2+\cdots+a_k=\ell a_1$ or $\ell a_k$. In this paper, we prove that for all $k\geq3$, if $n$ is sufficiently large, then every permutation of…

Let $\Lambda(n)$ be the von Mangoldt function, $x$ real and $2\leq y \leq x$. This paper improves the estimate on the exponential sum over primes in short intervals \[ S_k(x,y;\alpha) = \sum_{x< n \leq x+y} \Lambda(n) e\left( n^k \alpha…

Given a lattice $\Lambda \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, we consider its Minkowski reduced basis and the solid angle $\Omega$ spanned by the basis vectors. Such a basis satisfies strong near-orthogonality conditions, which allow us to bound from…

For a compact set $K\subset \mathbb{R}^1$ and a family $\{C_\lambda\}_{\lambda\in J}$ of dynamically defined Cantor sets sufficiently close to affine with $\text{dim}_H\, K+\text{dim}_H\, C_\lambda>1$ for all $\lambda\in J$, under natural…

For a second order differential operator $A(\msx) =-\nabla a(\msx)\nabla + b'(\msx)\nabla+ \nabla \big(\msb''(\msx) \cdot\big)$ on a bounded domain $D$ with the Dirichlet boundary conditions on $\partial D$ there exists the inverse…

Given a set $A \subseteq \mathbb{F}_p^n$, what conditions does one need to guarantee that iterated sumsets of the form $A+\cdots+A$ expand quickly (say, within $O(p)$ terms) to the whole space? When only the size of $A$ is known, such…

Let $d\in\mathbb{N}$ and $\varphi\colon(0,1)\to[0,d]$. We prove there exists a set $F\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ whose lower spectrum $\operatorname{dim}^{\theta}_{\mathrm{L}} F$ satisfies $(1-\theta)\operatorname{dim}^{\theta}_{\mathrm{L}} F =…
