The paper substantiates the conjecture of the asymptotic behavior of the largest distance between consecutive primes: $sup_{p_i \leq x}(p_{i+1}-p_i) \sim 2e^{-\gamma} \log^2(x)$, where $\gamma$ is the Euler constant. The Hardy-Littlewood…
We introduce a one parameter deformation of Zwegers' multivariable $\mu$-function by applying iterations of the $q$-Borel summation method, which is also a multivariate analogue of the generalized $\mu$-function introduced by the authors.…
We give the converse to Dirichlet's theorem on primes in arithmetic progressions by generalizing an old result of Guinand.
Consider an operator that takes the Fourier transform of a discrete measure supported in $\mathcal{X}\subset[-\frac 12,\frac 12)^d$ and restricts it to a compact $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^d$. We provide lower bounds for its smallest singular…
Let $\xi_0,\xi_1,\ldots$ be independent identically distributed complex- valued random variables such that $\mathbb{E}\log(1+|\xi _0|)<\infty$. We consider random analytic functions of the form…
The 1-3-5 conjecture of Z.-W. Sun states that any $n\in\mathbb N=\{0,1,2,\ldots\}$ can be written as $x^2+y^2+z^2+w^2$ with $w,x,y,z\in\mathbb N$ such that $x+3y+5z$ is a square. In this paper, via the theory of ternary quadratic forms and…
We derive a simple functional equation with two catalytic variables characterising the generating function of 3-stack-sortable permutations. Using this functional equation, we extend the 174-term series to 1000 terms. From this series, we…
We consider a two-valued function $u$ that is either Dirichlet energy minimizing, $C^{1,\mu}$ harmonic, or in $C^{1,\mu}$ with an area-stationary graph such that Almgren's frequency (restricted to the singular set) is continuous at a…
The Fractional Fourier Transform is a ubiquitous signal processing tool in basic and applied sciences. The Fractional Fourier Transform generalizes every property and application of the Fourier Transform. Despite the practical importance of…
We study the triple convolution sum of the generalised divisor functions $$\sum_{n\leq x} d_k(n+h)d_l(n)d_m(n-h),$$ where $h \le x^{1-\epsilon}$ for any $\epsilon>0$ and $d_k(n)$ denotes the generalised divisor function which counts the…
We show that the Riemann hypothesis is true if and only if the measure $$\mu=-\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{\Lambda(n)}{\sqrt{n}}(\delta_{\log n}+\delta_{-\log n})+2\cosh(x/2)\,dx$$ is a tempered distribution. In this case it is the Fourier…
We work in a discrete model of the nonlinear Fourier transform (following the terminology of Tao and Thiele), which appears in the study of orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle. The corresponding nonlinear variant of the…
The Dickman function F(alpha) gives the asymptotic probability that a large integer N has no prime divisor exceeding N^alpha. It is given by a finite sum of generalized polylogarithms defined by the exquisite recursion L_k(alpha)=-…
We consider vanishing properties of exponential sums of the Liouville function $\lambda$ of the form $$ \lim_{H\to\infty}\limsup_{X\to\infty}\frac{1}{\log X}\sum_{m\leq X}\frac{1}{m}\sup_{\alpha\in C}\bigg|\frac{1}{H}\sum_{h\leq…
Based on the definition of the Fourier transform in terms of the number operator of the quantum harmonic oscillator and in the corresponding definition of the fractional Fourier transform, we have obtained the discrete fractional Fourier…
We consider Boolean functions f:{-1,1}^n->{-1,1} that are close to a sum of independent functions on mutually exclusive subsets of the variables. We prove that any such function is close to just a single function on a single subset. We also…
Let \tau(.) be the Ramanujan \tau-function, and let k be a positive integer such that \tau(n) is not 0 for n=1,...,[k/2]. (This is known to be true for k < 10^{23}, and, conjecturally, for all k.) Further, let s be a permutation of the set…
We prove a structure theorem for multiplicative functions which states that an arbitrary bounded multiplicative function can be decomposed into two terms, one that is approximately periodic and another that has small Gowers uniformity norm…
We show that for integers $k\geq 4$ and $s\geq k^2+(3k-1)/4$, we have an asymptotic formula for the number of solutions, in positive integers $x_i$, to the inequality $\left|(x_1-\theta_1)^k+\dotsc+(x_s-\theta_s)^k-\tau\right|<\eta$, where…
Sums of the singular series constants that appear in the Hardy--Littlewood $k$-tuples conjectures have long been studied in connection to the distribution of primes. We study constrained sums of singular series, where the sum is taken over…
