In this paper we improve the result of Akbary and Hambrook by a factor of log x by obtaining a better version of Vaughan's inequality and using the explicit variant of an inequality connected to the M\"obius function, derived by Helfgott in…

We show that a short truncation of the Fourier expansion for a character sum gives a good approximation for the average value of that character sum over an interval. We give a few applications of this result. One is that for any $b$ there…

We obtain optimal lower bounds for moments of theta functions. On the other hand, we also get new upper bounds on individual theta values and moments of theta functions on average over primes. The upper bounds are based on bounds of…

In this short note we derive, for bounded domains, an upper bound for a Friedrichs type constant in a weighted Friedrichs type inequality. This upper bound generalizes a well known upper bound of the Friedrichs constant. This upper bound is…

In this paper, we establish Brezin-Li-Yau type lower bounds for averaged sums of Dirichlet eigenvalues of the Laplacian and poly-Laplacian on bounded domains in Euclidean spaces. By deriving expansions of two binary polynomials which may be…

The idea of the restricted mean has been used to establish a significantly improved version of Markov's inequality that does not require any new assumptions. The result immediately extends on Chebyshev's inequalities and Chernoff's bound.…

This work focuses on an improved fractional Sobolev inequality with a remainder term involving the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality which has been proved recently. By extending a recent result on the standard Laplacian to the fractional…

Using the recent result of Bourgain, Demeter and Guth on Vinogradov's mean value, a number of new results about small fractional parts of polynomials and fractional parts of additive forms are obtained. These improve work of Baker, Cook,…

In this work a local inequality is provided which bounds the distance of an integral varifold from a multivalued plane (height) by its tilt and mean curvature. The bounds obtained for the exponents of the Lebesgue spaces involved are shown…

A folklore result uses the Lovasz local lemma to analyze the discrepancy of hypergraphs with bounded degree and edge size. We generalize this result to the context of real matrices with bounded row and column sums.

We apply eigenvalue interlacing techniques for obtaining lower and upper bounds for the sums of Laplacian eigenvalues of graphs, and characterize equality. This leads to generalizations of, and variations on theorems by Grone, and Grone and…

We provide a sufficient characterization for subsets $\mathcal{A}$ of the polynomial ring $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ for which partial sums of Steinhaus random multiplicative functions approach a complex standard normal distribution. This extends…

In this short note we improve the best to date bound in Godbersen's conjecture, and show some implications for unbalanced difference bodies.

Let $K$ be a finite Galois extension of $\mathbb{Q}$. We count primes in short intervals represented by the norm of a prime ideal of $K$ satisfying a small sector condition determined by Hecke characters. We also show that such primes are…

Considering some parameters and by means of an inequality of Hadamard, we derive general half-discrete Hilbert-type inequalities. Then we highlight some special cases.

Chillag has showed that there is a single generalization showing that the sums of ordinary character tables, Brauer character, and projective indecomposable characters are positive integers. We show that Chillag's construction also applies…

We use GL(2) delta method to establish the Burgess bound.

We extend some methods of bounding exponential sums of the type $\displaystyle\sum_{n\le N}e^{2\pi iag^n/p}$ to deal with the case when $g$ is not necessarily a primitive root. We also show some recent results of Shkredov concerning…

We give a uniform estimate and an inequality for solutions of an equation with Dirichlet boundary condition.

We prove an averaged version of a claim suspected to be true by Alladi, Erd\"os, and Vaaler. Qualitatively, the result states that a divisor sum of a multiplicative function, which obeys certain size constraints, derives most of its value…
