We show the existence of an absolute constant $\alpha>0$ such that, for every $k \geq 3$, $G:=\mathop{\mathrm{Sym}}(k)$, and for every $H \leqslant G$ of index at least $3$, one has $|H/[H,H]| \leq |G:H|^{\alpha/ \log \log |G:H|}$. This…

Let $X_1,X_2,\ldots,X_n$ be independent random variables and $S_k=\sum_{i=1}^k X_i$. We show that for any constants $a_k$, \[ \Pr(\max_{1\leq k\leq n}||S_{k}|-a_{k}|>11t)\leq 30 \max_{1\leq k\leq n}\Pr(||S_{k}|-a_{k}|>t). \] We also discuss…

We prove that the number of unit distances among $n$ planar points is at most $1.94\cdot n^{4/3}$, improving on the previous best bound of $8n^{4/3}$. We also give better upper and lower bounds for several small values of $n$. We also prove…

In 1973, Calder\'{o}n proved that an $m \times 2$ positive semidefinite (psd) biquadratic form can always be expressed as the sum of ${3m(m+1) \over 2}$ squares of quadratic forms. Very recently, by applying Hilbert's theorem on ternary…

A classical inequality due to Bohnenblust and Hille states that for every positive integer $m$ there is a constant $C_{m}>0$ so that $$(\sum\limits_{i_{1},...,i_{m}=1}^{N}|U(e_{i_{^{1}}},...,e_{i_{m}})| ^{\frac{2m}{m+1}})…

The upper estimates for the optimal constants of the multilinear Bohnenblust--Hille inequality obtained in [J. Funct. Anal. 264 (2013), 429--463] are here improved to: {0.1cm} {enumerate} For real scalars:…

We use an interpolative technique from \cite{abps} to introduce the notion of multiple $N$-separately summing operators. Our approach extends and unifies some recent results; for instance we recover the best known estimates of the…

Let $A(s) = \sum_n a_n n^{-s}$ be a Dirichlet series with meromorphic continuation. Say we are given information on the poles of $A(s)$ with $|\Im s| \leq T$ for some large constant $T$. What is the best way to use such finite spectral data…

Let $\{u_n\}_n$ be a non-degenerate linear recurrence sequence of integers with Binet's formula given by $u_n= \sum_{i=1}^{m} P_i(n)\alpha_i^n.$ Assume $\max_i \vert \alpha_i \vert >1$. In 1977, Loxton and Van der Poorten conjectured that…

We present a large number of analytic evaluations of Euler sums, namely sums such as \begin{align} M(m,n_0,n_1,n_2, \ldots, n_t) &= \sum_{k=1}^\infty \frac{H(k)^m}{k^{n_0} (k+1)^{n_1} (k+2)^{n_2} \cdots (k+t)^{n_t}}, \nonumber \end{align}…

For a given irrational number $\alpha$ and a real number $\gamma$ in $(0,1)$ one defines the two-sided inhomogeneous approximation constant \begin{equation*} M(\alpha,\gamma):=\liminf_{|n|\rightarrow\infty}|n| ||n\alpha-\gamma||,…

For a given integer $m$ and any residue $a \pmod{m}$ that can be written as a sum of 3 squares modulo $m$, we show the existence of infinitely many integers $n \equiv a \pmod{m}$ such that the number of representations of $n$ as a sum of…

A classical result due to Frank and Seiringer asserts that for $1\leq p<\frac Ns$, there exists a sharp constant $\mathcal{C}_{N,s,p}>0$ such that $$…

In this paper, we study the best constant of the following discrete Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality, \begin{equation} \sum_{i,j,i\neq j}\frac{f_{i}g_{j}}{\mid i-j\mid^{n-\alpha}}\leq C_{r,s,\alpha} |f|_{l^r} |g|_{l^s},…

The Hardy--Littlewood inequalities for $m$-linear forms have their origin with the seminal paper of Hardy and Littlewood (Q.J. Math, 1934). Nowadays it has been extensively investigated and many authors are looking for the optimal estimates…

Let $H_t$ be the subdivision of $K_t$. Very recently, Conlon and Lee have proved that for any integer $t\geq 3$, there exists a constant $C$ such that $\text{ex}(n,H_t)\leq Cn^{3/2-1/6^t}$. In this paper, we prove that there exists a…

Let A be a finite subset of a commutative additive group Z. The sumset and difference set of A are defined as the sets of pairwise sums and differences of elements of A, respectively. The well-known inequality $\sigma(A)^{1/2} \leq…

Let $I(n,l)$ denote the maximum possible number of incidences between $n$ points and $l$ lines. It is well known that $I(n,l) = \Theta(n^{2/3}l^{2/3} + n + l)$. Let $c_{\mathrm{SzTr}}$ denote the lower bound on the constant of…

It is not known whether the Flint Hills series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{n^3\cdot\sin(n)^2}$ converges. We show that this question is closely related to the irrationality measure of $\pi$, denoted $\mu(\pi)$. In particular, convergence…
