We classify all groups G and all pairs (V,W) of absolutely simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules over G such that the support of the direct sum of V and W generates G, the square of the braiding between V and W is not the identity, and the Nichols…
We obtain results bounding the degree of the series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} 1/\alpha_n$, where $\{\alpha_n\}$ is a sequence of algebraic integers satisfying certain algebraic conditions and growth conditions. Our results extend results of…
Let $N$ be a fixed positive integer, and let $f\in S_k(N)$ be a primitive cusp form given by the Fourier expansion $f(z)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \lambda_f(n)n^{\frac{k-1}{2}}e(nz)$. We consider the partial sum $S(x,f)=\sum_{n\leq…
We augment the method of Wooley (2015) by some new ideas and in a series of results, improve his metric bounds on the Weyl sums and the discrepancy of fractional parts of real polynomials with partially prescribed coefficients. We also…
We show some new local smoothing estimates of the fractional Schr\"odinger equations with initial data in $\alpha$-modulation spaces via decoupling inequalities. Furthermore, our necessary conditions show that the local smoothing estimates…
In 2011, W. Lang derived a novel, explicit formula for the sum of powers of integers $S_k(n) = 1^k + 2^k + \cdots + n^k$ involving simultaneously the Stirling numbers of the first and second kind. In this note, we first recall and then…
We use a relative trace formula on GL(2) to compute a sum of twisted modular L-functions anywhere in the critical strip, weighted by a Fourier coefficient and a Hecke eigenvalue. When the weight k or level N is sufficiently large, the sum…
By a classical result of Weyl, for any increasing sequence $(n_k)_{k \geq 1}$ of integers the sequence of fractional parts $(\{n_k x\})_{k \geq 1}$ is uniformly distributed modulo 1 for almost all $x \in [0,1]$. Except for a few special…
In this paper, we obtain the maximal estimate for the Weyl sums on the torus $\mathbb{T}^d$ with $d\geq 2$, which is sharp up to the endpoint. We also consider two variants of this problem which include the maximal estimate along the…
Multiply nested finite harmonic sums $S_{a_1 ... a_n}(N)$ occur in many single scale higher order calculations in Quantum Field Theory. We discuss their algebraic and structural relations to weight {\sf w=6}. As an example, we consider the…
We introduce nil-Hecke algebras for Weyl groupoids. We describe a basis and some properties of these algebras which lead to a notion of Bruhat order for Weyl groupoids.
Recently we found necessary and sufficient conditions for the convergence at a preassigned point of the spherical partial sums of the Fourier integral in a class of piecewise smooth functions in Euclidean space. These yield elementary…
We compute the finite-dimensional Nichols algebras over the sum of two simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules V and W over non-abelian quotients of a certain central extension of the dihedral group of eight elements or SL(2,3), and such that the…
In this paper, we will present a new iterative construction for the auxiliary equation of Waring's problem, which seems a little simpler than the one of so called "smooth numbers" in papers [4] and [8], and give same upper bounds of G(k) as…
We prove mixed-norm estimates for circular averages with respect to $\alpha$-dimensional fractal measures on $\mathbb{R}^2$, using circle tangency bounds when $\alpha \in (0,1]$ and a $\delta$-discretized slicing lemma for fractals when…
Let $G(k)$ denote the least number $s$ having the property that every sufficiently large natural number is the sum of at most $s$ positive integral $k$-th powers. Then for all $k\in \mathbb N$, one has \[ G(k)\le \lceil k(\log…
We give asymptotic formulas for some average values of the Euler function on shifted smooth numbers. The result is based on various estimates on the distribution of smooth numbers in arithmetic progressions which are due to A. Granville and…
This paper offers two elementary yet precise derivations of an exact formula \[ W(n) = \sum_{i=1} ^{n} \lceil \lg i \rceil = n \lceil \lg n \rceil - 2^{\lceil \lg n \rceil} + 1 \] for the maximum number $ W(n) $ of comparisons of keys…
Let $\xi_0, \xi_1, \dots$ be i.i.d. random variables with zero mean and unit variance. We study the following four families of random analytic functions: $\sum_{k=0}^n \sqrt{\binom nk} \xi_k z^k$ (spherical polynomials), $\sum_{k=0}^\infty…
We consider quadratic Weyl sums $S_N(x;\alpha,\beta)=\sum_{n=1}^N \exp\!\left[2\pi i\left( \left(\tfrac{1}{2}n^2+\beta n\right)\!x+\alpha n\right)\right]$ for $(\alpha,\beta)\in\mathbb{Q}^2$, where $x\in\mathbb{R}$ is randomly distributed…
