Let $f$ be a measurable function satisfying $$f(x+1)=f(x), \qquad \int_0^1 f(x) dx=0, \qquad \textrm{Var} ~f < + \infty,$$ and let $(n_k)_{k\ge 1}$ be a sequence of integers satisfying $n_{k+1}/n_k \ge q >1$ $(k=1, 2, \ldots)$. By the…

Inspired by a question asked on the list {\tt mathfun}, we revisit {\em Kempner-like series}, i.e., harmonic sums $\sum' 1/n$ where the integers $n$ in the summation have ``restricted'' digits. First we give a short proof that $\lim_{k \to…

For a function $F$ represented as $F(x)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty{f_n (x) e^{2 \pi i \lambda_n x}},$ where each $f_n$ satisfies $\operatorname{spec}(f_n) \subset [0, 1]$ and $(\lambda_n)_{n\geq 0}\subset \mathbb{R}_+$ is a lacunary sequence, we…

Let $n_j$ be a lacunary sequence of integers, such that $n_{j+1}/n_j\geq r$. We are interested in linear combinations of the sequence of finite Riesz products $\prod_{j=1}^N(1+\cos(n_j t))$. We prove that, whenever the Riesz products are…

Suppose $A \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times n}$ is invertible and we are looking for the solution of $Ax = b$. Given an initial guess $x_1 \in \mathbb{R}$, we show that by reflecting through hyperplanes generated by the rows of $A$, we can generate…

We study convergence properties of sparse averages of partial sums of Fourier series of continuous functions. By sparse averages, we are considering an increasing sequences of integers $n_0 < n_1 < n_2 < ...$ and looking at…

We show that if $\mathcal{L}_1$ and $\mathcal{L}_2$ are linear transformations from $\mathbb{Z}^d$ to $\mathbb{Z}^d$ satisfying certain mild conditions, then, for any finite subset $A$ of $\mathbb{Z}^d$, $$|\mathcal{L}_1 A+\mathcal{L}_2…

In the paper we obtain some new applications of well--known W. Rudin's theorem concerning lacunary series to problems of combinatorial number theory. We generalize a result of M.-C. Chang on L_2 (L)-norm of Fourier coefficients of a set…

Let $P_{k,m}$ denote the Poincar\'e series of weight $k$ and index $m$ for the full modular group $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$, and let $\{P_{k,m}\}$ be a sequence of Poincar\'e series for which $m(k)$ satisfies $m(k) / k \rightarrow\infty$…

We generalize the universal power series of Seleznev to several variables and we allow the coefficients to depend on parameters. Then, the approximable functions may depend on the same parameters. The universal approximation holds on…

In [16], we obtained some congruences for Lucas quotients of two infinite families of Lucas sequences by studying the combinatorial sum $$\sum_{k\equiv r(\mbox{mod}m)}{n\choose k}a^k.$$ In this paper, we show that the sum can be expressed…

In this paper we consider a question on existence of double series by generalized Walsh system, which are universal in weighted $L_\mu^1[0,1]^2$ spaces. In particular, we construct a weighted function $\mu(x,y)$ and a double series by…

A real sequence $\Lambda = \{\lambda_n\}_{n=1}^\infty$ is called $p$-generating if there exists a function $g$ whose translates $\{g(x-\lambda_n)\}_{n=1}^\infty$ span the space $L^p(\mathbb{R})$. While the $p$-generating sets were…

The series $$S_k(z)=\sum_{m=1}^{\infty}\frac{m^kz^m}{(\{array}{c} 2m m \{array})}$$ is evaluated in non-recursive closed and analytically continued beyond its domain of convergence $0\le |z|<4$ for $k=0,1,2,\...$. From this we provide a…

We show that the validity of the non-commutative Khintchine inequality for some $q$ with $1<q<2$ implies its validity (with another constant) for all $1\le p<q$. We prove this for the inequality involving the Rademacher functions, but also…

We present some promising ideas to treat the problem of making completely rigorous the development of our expression for $\lambda_d(p)$ of the monomer-dimer problem on a $d$-dimensional hypercubic lattice \begin{equation}\label{abstract1}…

We show that for a nonnegative monotone sequence $\{c_k\}$ the condition $c_kk\to 0$ is sufficient for uniform convergence of the series $\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}c_k\sin k^{\alpha} x$ on any bounded set for $\alpha\in (0,2)$, and for an odd…

We present a multidimensional generalization of Zeckendorf's Theorem (any positive integer can be written uniquely as a sum of non-adjacent Fibonacci numbers) to a large family of linear recurrences. This extends work of Anderson and…

Let $\lambda$ denote the Liouville function. The Chowla conjecture asserts that $$ \sum_{n \leq X} \lambda(a_1 n + b_1) \lambda(a_2 n+b_2) \dots \lambda(a_k n + b_k) = o_{X \to \infty}(X) $$ for any fixed natural numbers $a_1,a_2,\dots,a_k$…

We study the question of whether for each n there is another integer m with lambda(m)=lambda(n), where lambda is Carmichael's function. We give a "near" proof of the fact that this is the case unconditionally, and a complete conditional…
