A classical theorem of Menshov states that every measurable function can redefined on a set of arbitrarily small Lebesgue measure, so that the resulting function has uniformly convergent Fourier series. We prove that the same is true if we…

A generalized divergence theorem is established allowing for domains with inner boundaries. The normal trace of a rough integrand is not a Radon measure; rather, the boundary integral is expressed via a surface functional continuous with…

Log-concave distributions include some important distributions such as normal distribution, exponential distribution and so on. In this note, we show inequalities between two Lp-norms for log-concave distributions on the Euclidean space.…

Geometric discrepancies are standard measures to quantify the irregularity of distributions. They are an important notion in numerical integration. One of the most important discrepancy notions is the so-called \emph{star discrepancy}.…

The formulation of the variational problems for the solute transport in a fluid layer in presence of double-diffusive thermal convection is discussed. It is shown that the variational functional obtained by Strauss can be generalized and…

We study a random conductance problem on a $d$-dimensional discrete torus of size $L > 0$. The conductances are independent, identically distributed random variables uniformly bounded from above and below by positive constants. The…

We construct a continuous function on the torus with almost everywhere divergence triangular sums of double Fourier series. An analogous theorem we also prove for eccentrical spherical sums.

We show that, in toric manifolds, one can characterize the sign of the Ricci curvature in terms of the convexity of the volume functional. More generally we discuss relationships between (i) Ricci curvature and volume, (ii) totally real and…

In this note, a generalization of the Thompson transfer lemma and its various extensions, most recently due to Lyons, is proven in the context of saturated fusion systems. A strengthening of Alperin's fusion theorem is also given in this…

We consider the large deviations associated with the empirical mean of independent and identically distributed random variables under a subexponential moment condition. We show that non-trivial deviations are observable at a subexponential…

Revisiting and extending a recent result of M.Huxley, we estimate the $L^{p}\left( \mathbb{T}^{d}\right) $ and Weak-$L^{p}\left( \mathbb{T}^{d}\right) $ norms of the discrepancy between the volume and the number of integer points in…

The asymptotic correspondence between the probability mass function of the $q$-deformed multinomial distribution and the $q$-generalised Kullback-Leibler divergence, also known as Tsallis relative entropy, is established. The probability…

We verify the conjecture of [CFKRS] for the mean square near the critical point of Dirichlet L-functions for a composite modulus q. We also prove a kind of reciprocity formula when the second moment for a prime modulus is twisted by a…

In 1965 Willmore conjectured that the integral of the square of the mean curvature of a torus immersed in $R^3$ is at least $2\pi^2$ and attains this minimal value if and only if the torus is a M\"obius transform of the Clifford torus. This…

Let $C$ be an irreducible algebraic curve defined over a number field and inside an algebraic torus of dimension at least 3. We partially answer a question posed by Levin on points on $C$ for which a non-trivial power lies again on $C$. Our…

In this paper, the concept of the classical $f$-divergence (for a pair of measures) is extended to the mixed $f$-divergence (for multiple pairs of measures). The mixed $f$-divergence provides a way to measure the difference between multiple…
