We obtain for the Kempner series (i.e. harmonic series where certain digits are excluded from all denominators, for example the digit 9 in base 10) new representations as geometrically convergent series. The coefficients for these…
We describe a novel method for bounding the dimension $d$ of the largest simple Hecke submodule of $S_2(\Gamma_0(N);\mathbb{Q})$ from below. Such bounds are of interest because of their relevance to the structure of $J_0(N)$, for instance.…
We conjecture the full asymptotic expansion of a product of Riemann zeta functions, evaluated at the non-trivial zeros of the zeta function, with shifts added in each argument. By taking derivatives with respect to these shifts, we form a…
The Mott corrections to the higher moments of the heavy ion energy-loss distribution are calculated in a wide range of relative particle velocity on the basis of the Mott exact cross section. It is shown that the relative Mott corrections…
Two-particle correlation measurements and analysis are an important component of the relativistic heavy-ion physics program. In particular, particle pair-number correlations on two-dimensional transverse momentum ($p_t$) allow unique access…
Let $\xi_1, \xi_2, \ldots$ be independent copies of a positive random variable $\xi$, $S_0 = 0$, and $S_k = \xi_1+\ldots+\xi_k$, $k \in \mathbb{N}$. Define $N(t) = \inf\{k \in \mathbb{N}: S_k>t\}$ for $t\geq 0$. The process $(N(t))_{t\geq…
The moments of central values of families of L-functions have recently attracted much attention and, with the work of Keating and Snaith, there are now precise conjectures for their limiting values. We develop a simple method to establish…
Let $f$ and $g$ be normalized Hecke-Maass cusp forms for the full modular group having spectral parameters $t_f$ and $t_g$ respectively with $t_f,t_g\asymp T\rightarrow \infty $. In this paper we show that the Rankin Selberg $L$-function…
In this paper, we investigate the size of moments of quadratic character sums averaged over the family of fundamental discriminants. We obtain an asymptotic formula for all integer moments in a restricted range of parameters using a…
In this series we examine the calculation of the $2k$th moment and shifted moments of the Riemann zeta-function on the critical line using long Dirichlet polynomials and divisor correlations. The present paper begins the general study of…
In various papers the authors have derived asymptotics for moments of certain cotangent sums related to the Riemann Hypothesis. S. Bettin has given an upper bound for the error term in these asymptotic results. In the present paper the…
Discrete moments of the Riemann zeta function were studied by Gonek and Hejhal in the 1980's. They independently formulated a conjecture concerning the size of these moments. In 1999, Hughes, Keating, and O'Connell, by employing a random…
We compute the second moment of the Riemann zeta function for shifted arguments over a domain that extends the ones in the literature. We use the Riemann-Siegel formula for the error term in the approximate functional equation and take the…
We study one-parameter families of elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}(T)$, which are of the form $y^2=x^3+A(T)x+B(T)$, with non-constant $j$-invariant. We define the $r$\textsuperscript{th} moment of an elliptic curve to be $A_{r,E}(p) :=…
We calculate two-point functions of scalar fields of mass $m$ and their conjugate momenta at the late-time boundary of de Sitter with Bunch-Davies boundary conditions, in general $d+1$ spacetime dimensions. We perform the calculation using…
We present our methods to fit the two point correlators for light, strange, and charmed pseudoscalar meson physics with the highly improved staggered quark (HISQ) action. We make use of the least-squares fit including the full covariance…
We consider a model of first passage percolation (FPP) where the nearest-neighbor edges of the standard two-dimensional Euclidean lattice are equipped with random variables. These variables are i.i.d.\, nonnegative, continuous, and have a…
We consider an analog of a conjecture of Montgomery and Soundararajan on the moments of primes in short intervals in number fields; this analog was discussed and heuristically derived in a paper of the second author, Rodgers, and…
A recursive method is derived to calculate all eigenvalue correlation functions of a random hermitian matrix in the large size limit, and after smoothing of the short scale oscillations. The property that the two-point function is…
We prove infinitely many congruences modulo 3, 5, and powers of 2 for the overpartition function $\bar{p}(n)$ and two smallest parts functions: $\bar{\operatorname{spt1}}(n)$ for overpartitions and $\operatorname{M2spt}(n)$ for partitions…
