For $R_{\alpha}$ being an irrational rotation of angle $\alpha$ on the one torus $\mathbb{T}$ and $\phi(x)=\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{1-x}$, we compare the behavior of the Birkhoff sum $S_N(\phi)=\sum_{k=0}^{N-1}(\phi\circ R_{\alpha}^k)(x)$ with…
In this article, we establish a geometric lower bound for the first positive eigenvalue $\lambda^{(1)}_{1}$ of the rough Laplacian acting on $1$-forms for closed $2n$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with nonvanishing Euler characteristic.…
We consider a modification of the OMM energy functional which contains an $\ell^1$ penalty term in order to find a sparse representation of the low-lying eigenspace of self-adjoint operators. We analyze the local minima of the modified…
For $s\in(0,1)$ and an open bounded set $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$, we prove existence and uniqueness of absolute minimisers of the supremal functional $$E_\infty(u)=\|(-\Delta)^s u\|_{L^\infty(\mathbb R^n)},$$ where $(-\Delta)^s$ is the…
We study two variations of the classical one-delta problem for entire functions of exponential type, known also as the Carath\'eodory--Fej\'er--Tur\'an problem. The first variation imposes the additional requirement that the function is…
In this paper, we study the spectrality and frame-spectrality of exponential systems of the type $E(\Lambda,\varphi) = \{e^{2\pi i \lambda\cdot\varphi(x)}: \lambda\in\Lambda\}$ where the phase function $\varphi$ is a Borel measurable which…
This paper presents the Gaussian subordination framework to generate optimal one-sided approximations to multidimensional real-valued functions by functions of prescribed exponential type. Such extremal problems date back to the works of…
Let $\Omega$ be an open set. We consider the supremal functional \[ \tag{1} \label{1} \ \ \ \ \ \ \mathrm{E}_\infty (u,\mathcal{O})\, :=\, \| \mathrm D u \|_{L^\infty( \mathcal{O} )}, \ \ \ \mathcal{O} \subseteq \Omega \text{ open}, \]…
Let $\beta > 1$ and the run-length function $r_n(x,\beta)$ be the maximal length of consecutive zeros amongst the first n digits in the $\beta$-expansion of $x\in[0,1]$. The exceptional set $$E_{\max}^{\varphi}=\left\{x \in…
Let $\al$ be an irrational and $\varphi: \N \rightarrow \R^+$ be a function decreasing to zero. For any $\al$ with a given Diophantine type, we show some sharp estimations for the Hausdorff dimension of the set [E_{\varphi}(\al):={y\in \R:…
Let $X=\{ X_n\}_{n\in \mathbb{Z}}$ be zero-mean stationary Gaussian sequence of random variables with covariance function $\rho$ satisfying $\rho(0)=1$. Let $\varphi:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ be a function such that…
Lehmer conjectured that Ramanujan's tau function never vanishes. As a variation of this conjecture, it is proved that \begin{equation*} \tau(n)\neq \pm \ell, \pm 2\ell, \pm 2\ell^2, \end{equation*} where $\ell<100$ is an odd prime, by…
We show that the $L^1$ norm of an exponential sum of length $X$ and with coefficients equal to the Liouville or M\"{o}bius function is at least $\gg_{\varepsilon} X^{1/4 - \varepsilon}$ for any given $\varepsilon$. For the Liouville…
We show that for many families of OPUC, one has $||\varphi'_n||_2/n -> 1$, a condition we call normal behavior. We prove that this implies $|\alpha_n| -> 0$ and that it holds if the sequence $\alpha_n$ is in $\ell^1$. We also prove it is…
We consider a variant of a problem first introduced by Hughes and Rudnick (2003) and generalized by Bernard (2015) concerning conditional bounds for small first zeros in a family of $L$-functions. Here we seek to estimate the size of the…
We discuss approximation of extremal functions by polynomials in the weighted Bergman spaces $A^p_\alpha$ where $-1 < \alpha < 0$ and $-1 < \alpha < p-2$. We obtain bounds on how close the approximation is to the true extremal function in…
In this paper we study existence, regularity, and approximation of solution to a fractional semilinear elliptic equation of order $s \in (0,1)$. We identify minimal conditions on the nonlinear term and the source which leads to existence of…
