This paper proposes a variational principle for the solutions of quantum field theories in which the ``trial functions'' are chosen from the algebra of asymptotic fields, and illustrates this variational principle in simple cases.

Let $\mathcal{A}$ denote a finite set of arithmetic progressions of positive integers and let $s \geq 2$ be an integer. If the cardinality of $\mathcal{A}$ is at least 2 and $U$ is the union formed by taking certain arithmetic progressions…

The Hardy--Littlewood prime $k$-tuples conjecture has long been thought to be completely unapproachable with current methods. While this sadly remains true, startling breakthroughs of Zhang, Maynard, and Tao have nevertheless made…

A recast of the standard residue-class analysis of the 3x+1 (Collatz) map in terms of two elementary operators on arithmetic progressions. The resulting calculus (i) splits any progression into its even and odd subsequences in a single…

We prove $q$-variation estimates, $q>2$, on $\ell^{p}$ spaces for averages along primes (with $1<p<\infty$) and polynomials (with $\big| \frac1p - \frac12 \big| < \frac{1}{2(d+1)}$, where $d$ is the degree of the polynomial). This improves…

For fixed coprime polynomials $U,V \in \mathbb{F}_q [T]$ with degrees of different parities, and a general polynomial $A \in \mathbb{F}_q [T]$, define the arithmetic function $S_{U,V} (A)$ to be the number of representations of $A$ of the…

Let $P(a,q)$ be the least prime in the arithmetic progression $\{n\equiv a(mod\ q)\}$. In this note, when $q$ has bounded cubic part and $(a,q)=1$, we combine the Heath-Brown's method and the Burgess's bounds for L-functions to obtain $…

We study the distribution of partition parts in arithmetic progressions and find asymptotic results that capture all exponentially growing terms. This is accomplished by studying the behavior of non-modular Eisenstein series that appear in…

Let $\mathcal{F}=\{A_1,A_2,\ldots,A_k\}$ be a collection of finite arithmetic progressions, where each $A_d$ is an initial segment of the set $D_d=\{d,2d,3d,\ldots\}$ of consecutive multiples of a positive integer $d$. Let $m(\mathcal{F})$…
