It is argued that a fuzzy version of 4-truth-valued paraconsistent logic (with truth values corresponding to True, False, Both and Neither) can be approximately isomorphically mapped into the complex-number algebra of quantum probabilities.…

The Jordan decomposition theorem states that every function $f \colon [0,1] \to \mathbb{R}$ of bounded variation can be written as the difference of two non-decreasing functions. Combining this fact with a result of Lebesgue, every function…

Diophantine approximation is the problem of approximating a real number by rational numbers. We propose a version of this in which the numerators are approximately related to the denominators by a Laurent polynomial. Our definition is…

We show that for any irrational $\alpha$ and any $\tau<8/23$ there are infinitely many $n$ which are the product of two primes for which $$\|n\alpha\|\leq n^{-\tau}.$$ We also show that for all sufficiently large $b$ there exist 3-digit…

For real $\xi$ we consider the irrationality measure function $\psi_\xi(t) = \min_{1\leqslant q \leqslant t, q\in\mathbb{Z}} || q\xi ||$, where $||\cdot||$ - distance to the nearest integer. We prove that in the case…

There is not much that can be said for all $x$ and for all $n$ about the sum \[ \sum_{k=1}^n \frac{1}{|\sin k\pi x|}. \] However, for this and similar sums, series, and products, we can establish results for almost all $x$ using the tools…

We prove that for any real polynomial $f(x) \in\mathbb{R} [x]$ the set $$ \{\alpha \in \mathbb{R}: \liminf_{n\to \infty} n\log n ||\alpha f(n)|| >0\} $$ has positive Hausdorff dimension. Here $||\xi ||$ means the distance from $\xi $ to the…

We answer a question raised by Alam and Ghosh concerning an error term for a spiralling result in Diophantine approximation by rationals in a number field. The proof relies on a generalisation of Rogers' Mean Value Theorem to algebraic…

This text is devoted to simultaneous approximation to $\xi$ and $\xi^2$ by rational numbers with the same denominator, where $\xi$ is a non-quadratic real number. We focus on an exponent $\beta_0(\xi)$ that measures the quality of such…

By extending Lv-Xin-Zhou's first layer formulas of the $q$-Dyson product, we prove Kadell's conjecture for the Dyson product and show the error of his $q$-analogous conjecture. With the extended formulas we establish a $q$-analog of…

We prove the $l^2$ Decoupling Conjecture for compact hypersurfaces with positive definite second fundamental form and also for the cone. This has a wide range of important consequences. One of them is the validity of the Discrete…

Lattice rounding in Euclidean space can be viewed as finding the nearest point in the orbit of an action by a discrete group, relative to the norm inherited from the ambient space. Using this point of view, we initiate the study of…

Let $\boldsymbol W=\{\boldsymbol W_n:n\in\mathbb N\}$ be a sequence of random vectors in $\mathbb R^d$, $d\ge 1$. This paper considers the logarithmic asymptotics of the extremes of $\boldsymbol W$, that is, for any vector $\boldsymbol…

We show how one can obtain rational approximants for $q$-extensions of the harmonic series and the logarithm (and many other similar quantities) by Pad\'e approximation using little $q$-Legendre polynomials and we show that properties of…

We propose a $q$-analog of classical plethystic conjectures due to Foulkes. In our conjectures, a divided difference of plethysms of Hall-Littlewood polynomials $H_n(\mathbf{x};q)$ replaces the analogous difference of plethysms of complete…

Let $\mathcal{A}\subset\mathbb{R}_{\geqslant1}$ be a countable set such that $\limsup_{x\to\infty}\frac{1}{\log x}\sum_{\alpha\in\mathcal{A}\cap[1,x]}\frac{1}{\alpha}>0$. We prove that, for every $\varepsilon>0$, there exist infinitely many…

Andrews and Bressoud, Alladi and Gordon, and others, have proven, in a number of papers, that the coefficients in various arithmetic progressions in the series expansions of certain infinite $q$-products vanish. In the present paper it is…

We extend the classical theorems of Khintchine and Schmidt in metric Diophantine approximation to the context of self-similar measures on $\mathbb{R}^d$. For this, we establish effective equidistribution of associated random walks on…

We prove analogues of some classical results from Diophantine approximation and metric number theory (namely Dirichlet's theorem and the Duffin--Schaeffer theorem) in the setting of diagonal Diophantine approximation, i.e. approximating…

A multiple-valued function $f:X\to {\bf Q}_Q(Y)$ is essentially a rule assigning $Q$ unordered and non necessarily distinct elements of $Y$ to each element of $X$. We study the Lipschitz extension problem in this context by using two…
