We investigate some extremal problems in Fourier analysis and their connection to a problem in prime number theory. In particular, we improve the current bounds for the largest possible gap between consecutive primes assuming the Riemann…

We establish the equivalence of conjectures concerning the pair correlation of zeros of $L$-functions in the Selberg class and the variances of sums of a related class of arithmetic functions over primes in short intervals. This extends the…

In this paper, we will employ the Opial and Wirtinger type inequalities to derive some conditional and unconditional lower bounds for the gaps between the zeros of the Riemann zeta-function. First, we prove (unconditionally) that the…

In previous work it was shown that if certain series based on sums over primes of non-principal Dirichlet characters have a conjectured random walk behavior, then the Euler product formula for its $L$-function is valid to the right of the…

Let $ \Lambda $ denote von Mangoldt's function, and consider the averages \begin{align*} A_N f (x) &=\frac{1}{N}\sum_{1\leq n \leq N}f(x-n)\Lambda(n) . \end{align*} We prove sharp $ \ell ^{p}$-improving for these averages, and sparse bounds…

Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis and a pair correlation conjecture for the zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions, we establish the truth of a conjecture of Montgomery (in its corrected form stated by Friedlander and Granville) on the…

For functions $f(z)= z+ a_2 z^2 + a_3 z^3 + \cdots$ in various subclasses of normalized analytic functions, we consider the problem of estimating the generalized Zalcman coefficient functional $\phi(f,n,m;\lambda):=|\lambda a_n a_m…

By means of a Fourier optimization framework, we improve the current asymptotic bounds under GRH for two classical problems in number theory: the problem of estimating the least quadratic non-residue modulo a prime, and the problem of…

The Riemann Zeta-Function is the most studied L-function; it's zeroes give information about the prime numbers. We can associate L-functions to a wide array of objects, and in general, the zeroes of these L-functions give information about…

Montgomery in 1973 introduced the pair correlation method to study the vertical distribution of Riemann zeta-function zeros. This work assumed the Riemann Hypothesis (RH). One striking application was a short proof that at least 2/3 of…
