We introduce a general result relating "short averages" of a multiplicative function to "long averages" which are well understood. This result has several consequences. First, for the M\"obius function we show that there are cancellations…

Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we provide explicit upper bounds for moduli of $\log{\mathcal{L}(s)}$ and $\mathcal{L}'(s)/\mathcal{L}(s)$ in the neighbourhood of the 1-line when $\mathcal{L}(s)$ are the Riemann, Dirichlet and…

Hal\'asz's Theorem gives an upper bound for the mean value of a multiplicative function $f$. The bound is sharp for general such $f$, and, in particular, it implies that a multiplicative function with $|f(n)|\le 1$ has either mean value…

With the aim of treating the local behaviour of additive functions, we develop analogues of the Matom\"{a}ki-Radziwill theorem that allow us to approximate the average of a general additive function over a typical short interval in terms of…

In this note we give a short and self-contained proof that, for any $\delta > 0$, $\sum_{x \leq n \leq x+x^\delta} \lambda(n) = o(x^\delta)$ for almost all $x \in [X, 2X]$. We also sketch a proof of a generalization of such a result to…

We obtain a functional Erd\H os-R\' enyi law of large numbers for "nonconventional" sums of the form $\Sig_n=\sum_{m=1}^nF(X_m,X_{2m},...,X_{\ell m})$ where $X_1,X_2,...$ is a sequence of exponentially fast $\psi$-mixing random vectors and…

A route to evaluate exact sums represented by Dirichlet eta and beta functions, both of which are alternating and divergent at negative integer arguments, is advocated. It rests on precise polynomial extrapolations and stands as a…

We give a purely combinatorial proof for a two-fold generalization of van der Waerden-Brauer's theorem and Hindman's theorem. We also give tower bounds for a finite version of it.

We make explicit a theorem of Fromm and Goldmakher [arXiv:1706.03002], which states that one can improve Burgess' bound for short character sums simply by improving the leading constant in the P\'{o}lya-Vinogradov inequality. Towards…

We study higher uniformity properties of the von Mangoldt function $\Lambda$, the M\"obius function $\mu$, and the divisor functions $d_k$ on short intervals $(x,x+H]$ for almost all $x \in [X, 2X]$. Let $\Lambda^\sharp$ and $d_k^\sharp$ be…

We obtain positive lower bounds on the Hausdorff dimension of sets of real numbers given by expressions of the form $\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{a_n b_n}$, where $b_n$ satisfies some growth condition and $a_n$ lies in some set, possibly…

In this paper we prove some results on sum-product estimates over arbitrary finite fields. More precisely, we show that for sufficiently small sets $A\subset \mathbb{F}_q$ we have \[|(A-A)^2+(A-A)^2|\gg |A|^{1+\frac{1}{21}}.\] This can be…
