In a work of Heath-Brown, it is proved that in the Pilz divisor problem, the normalized error term $\Delta_3(x)$ has a distribution function. In this paper, we prove an analogue of this result in the setting of GL(3). For a given self-dual…
We principally present reductions of certain generalized hypergeometric functions $_3F_2(\pm 1)$ in terms of products of elementary functions. Most of these results have been known for some time, but one of the methods, wherein we…
The three-point current correlation function in Euclidean spacetime for a strongly coupled system with non-Abelian global symmetry, $\langle J^a_i(x)J^b_j(y)J^c_k(z)\rangle$, is calculated from the weakly coupled AdS dual. The contribution…
For a function $f\colon \mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{N}$, define $N^{\times}_{f}(x)=\#\{n\leq x: n=kf(k) \mbox{ for some $k$} \}$. Let $\tau(n)=\sum_{d|n}1$ be the divisor function, $\omega(n)=\sum_{p|n}1$ be the prime divisor function, and…
In the paper we consider the partial sum process $\sum_{k=1}^{[nt]}X_k^{(n)}$, where $\{X_k^{(n)}=\sum_{j=0}^{\infty} a_{j}^{(n)}\xi_{k-j}(b(n)), \ k\in \bz\},\ n\ge 1,$ is a series of linear processes with tapered filter…
${\cal N} = 8$ superconformal field theories, such as the ABJM theory at Chern-Simons level $k=1$ or $2$, contain 35 scalar operators ${\cal O}_{IJ}$ with $\Delta=1$ in the ${\bf 35}_v$ representation of SO(8). The 3-point correlation…
The simultaneous QCD analysis of the $xF_3$ structure functions measured in deep-inelastic scattering by several collaborations is done up to 3--loop order of QCD. The x dependence of the higher--twist contribution is evaluated and turns…
The Taylor expansion of thermodynamic observables at a finite baryon chemical potential $\mu_B$ is an oft-used method to circumvent the well-known sign problem of Lattice QCD. Owing to the associated difficulty and limitations of precision…
Suppose $k\geqslant3$ is an integer. Let $\tau_k(n)$ be the number of ways $n$ can be written as a product of $k$ fixed factors. For any fixed integer $r\geqslant2$, we have the asymptotic formula \begin{equation*}…
We give a slight refinement to the process by which estimates for exponential sums are extracted from bounds for Vinogradov's mean value. Coupling this with the recent works of Wooley, and of Bourgain, Demeter and Guth, providing optimal…
For integers $b$ and $c$ the generalized central trinomial coefficient $T_n(b,c)$ denotes the coefficient of $x^n$ in the expansion of $(x^2+bx+c)^n$. Those $T_n=T_n(1,1)\ (n=0,1,2,\ldots)$ are the usual central trinomial coefficients, and…
This work presents a new three-operator splitting method to handle monotone inclusion and convex optimization problems. The proposed splitting serves as another natural extension of the Douglas-Rachford splitting technique to problems…
The present paper is a dissertation on the possible consequences of a conjectural bound for the so-called \thinspace modified Selberg integral of the divisor function $d_3$, i.e. a discrete version of the classical Selberg integral, where…
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.…
This paper investigates the dynamics of the iterated sum-of-divisors function $\sigma_k(m)$ and its behaviour modulo $m$, motivated by classical questions on perfect and multiperfect numbers and by the congruences $\sigma_k(m) \equiv 0…
We investigate the contribution of the full nonlinearity outside the narrow diagonal zone in the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations. We consider the off-diagonal components, including lh, hl, as well as part of the resonant block hh…
In 2007, assuming the Riemann Hypothesis (RH), Soundararajan \cite{Moment} proved that $\int_{0}^T |\zeta(1/2 + it)|^{2k} dt \ll_{k, \epsilon} T(\log T)^{k^2 + \epsilon}$ for every $k$ positive real number and every $\epsilon > 0.$ In this…
Recently, Bordell\'{e}s, Dai, Heyman, Pan and Shparlinski in \cite{Igor} considered a partial sum involving the Euler totient function and the integer parts $\lfloor x/n\rfloor$ function. Among other things, they obtained reasonably tight…
The binary sum-of-digits function $\mathsf{s}$ returns the number of ones in the binary expansion of a nonnegative integer. Cusick's Hamming weight conjecture states that, for all integers $t\geq 0$, the set of nonnegative integers $n$ such…
Let $f$ be a Steinhaus random multiplicative function, and for $\alpha\in \mathbb{R}$, let $d_\alpha$ denote the $\alpha$-divisor function. For $\alpha \in (1,2)$ we establish that $$ \mathbb{E}\bigg\{\Big|\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}\sum_{n\leq x}…
