We study discrete quasiperiodic Schr\"odinger operators on $\ell^2(\zee)$ with potentials defined by $\gamma$-H\"older functions. We prove a general statement that for $\gamma >1/2$ and under the condition of positive Lyapunov exponents,…

An absolutely convergent double series representation for the density of the supremum of $\alpha$-stable Levy process is given in [3, Theorem 2] for almost all irrational $\alpha$. This result cannot be made stronger in the following sense:…

In recent papers a number of authors have considered Borel probability measures $\mu$ in $\br^d$ such that the Hilbert space $L^2(\mu)$ has a Fourier basis (orthogonal) of complex exponentials. If $\mu$ satisfies this property, the set of…

A symmetrized lattice of $2n$ points in terms of an irrational real number $\alpha$ is considered in the unit square, as in the theorem of Davenport. If $\alpha$ is a quadratic irrational, the square of the $L^2$ discrepancy is found to be…

The Scott rank of a countable structure is a measure, coming from the proof of Scott's isomorphism theorem, of the complexity of that structure. The Scott spectrum of a theory (by which we mean a sentence of $\mathcal{L}_{\omega_1 \omega}$)…

For an irrational real $\alpha$ and $\gamma\not \in \mathbb Z + \mathbb Z\alpha$ it is well known that $$ \liminf_{|n|\rightarrow \infty} |n| ||n\alpha -\gamma || \leq \frac{1}{4}. $$ If the partial quotients, $a_i,$ in the negative…

We obtain spectral inequalities and asymptotic formulae for the discrete spectrum of the operator $\frac12\, \log(-\Delta)$ in an open set $\Omega\in\Bbb R^d$, $d\ge2$, of finite measure with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We also derive…

We present a brief survey of the methods used in deducing upper estimates for irrationality measures of the logarithm values. We particularly expose the best known estimates for $\log2$ (due to E. Rukhadze), $\pi$ (due to M. Hata) and…

In this article we derive, using the Lagrange inversion theorem and applying twice the Fa\`a di Bruno formula, an expression of the minimum of the Gamma function $\Gamma$ as an expansion in powers of the Euler-Mascheroni constant $\gamma$.…

Chiral perturbation theory in the anomaly sector for $N_f=2$ is extended to include dynamical photons, thereby allowing a complete treatment of isospin breaking. A minimal set of independent chiral lagrangian terms is determined and the…

Let $K\subset\mathbb{R}$ be a self-similar set defined on $\mathbb{R}$. It is easy to prove that if the Lebesgue measure of $K$ is zero, then for Lebesgue almost every $t$, $$K+t=\{x+t:x\in K\}$$ only consists of irrational or…

One of the most natural and challenging issues in discrete complex analysis is to prove the convergence of discrete holomorphic functions to their continuous counterparts. This article is to solve the open problem in the general setting. To…

In this paper, we introduce a notion of quantum discrepancy, a non-commutative version of combinatorial discrepancy which is defined for projection systems, i.e. finite sets of orthogonal projections, as non-commutative counterparts of set…

For a probability measure $\mu$ on $[0,1]$ without discrete component, the best possible order of approximation by a finite point set in terms of the star-discrepancy is $\frac{1}{2N}$ as has been proven relatively recently. However, if…

We find the best asymptotic lower bounds for the coefficient of the leading term of the $L_1$ norm of the two-dimensional (axis-parallel) discrepancy that can be obtained by K.Roth's orthogonal function method among a large class of test…

This paper shows how internal models for polymorphic lambda calculi arise in any 2-category with a notion of discreteness. We generalise to a 2-categorical setting the famous theorem of Peter Freyd saying that there are no sufficiently…

The theory of uniform approximation of real numbers motivates the study of products of consecutive partial quotients in regular continued fractions. For any non-decreasing positive function $\varphi:\mathbb{N}\to [2,\infty)$, we determine…

Scattering of normally incident longitudinal and transverse acoustic waves by a randomly rough surface of an elastically isotropic solid is analyzed within the small perturbation approach. In the limiting case of a large correlation length…

The Faber-Krahn deficit $\delta\lambda$ of an open bounded set $\Omega$ is the normalized gap between the values that the first Dirichlet Laplacian eigenvalue achieves on $\Omega$ and on the ball having same measure as $\Omega$. For any…
