This paper proposes a class of origin-smooth approximators of indicators underlying the sum-of-negative-part statistic for testing multiple inequalities. The need for simulation or bootstrap to obtain test critical values is thereby…

For subordinators with positive drift we extend recent results on the structure of the potential measures and the renewal densities. Applying Fourier analysis a new representation of the potential densities is derived from which we deduce…

In this article densities (and their derivatives) of subordinators and inverse subordinators are considered. Under minor restrictions, generally milder than the existing in the literature, using a useful modification of the saddle point…

Let $0<\gamma_1\leq \gamma_2\leq \ldots$ denote the positive ordinates of the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta-function. A result first announced by Selberg states that there exist absolute constants $\Theta, \vartheta>0$ such that for…

We prove that for every nonnegative integer $m$ there exists an $\varepsilon>0$ such that if $\lambda\in (0,\varepsilon]$ and $x$ is sufficiently large in terms of $m$, then the number of positive integers $n\leq x$ for which the interval…

This note discusses the existence of prime numbers in short intervals. An unconditional elementary argument seems to prove the existence of primes in the short intervals [x, x + y], where y >= x^(1/2)(log x)^e, e > 0, and a sufficiently…

We associate to each non-degenerate smooth interval map a number measuring its global asymptotic expansion. We show that this number can be calculated in various different ways. A consequence is that several natural notions of nonuniform…

Let $X$ be large and let $\mathcal{P}$ denote the set of primes. Fix positive real parameters $r_1,\dots,r_s$ and a parameter $\lambda\geqslant 1$ determined by a balancing relation, and let $\mathcal{A}_{\lambda}(X)\subset[1,2X]$ be the…

The $i$-tuply $y$-densely divisible numbers were introduced by a Polymath project, as a weaker condition on the moduli than $y$-smoothness, in distribution estimates for primes in arithmetic progressions. We obtain the order of magnitude of…

In this paper, we expand on results from our previous paper "The Case Against Smooth Null Infinity I: Heuristics and Counter-Examples" [1] by showing that the failure of "peeling" (and, thus, of smooth null infinity) in a neighbourhood of…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis it is proved that, for fixed $k>0$ and $H = T^\theta$ with fixed $0<\theta \le 1$, $$ \int_T^{T+H}|\zeta(1/2+it)|^{2k} dt \ll H(\log T)^{k^2(1+O(1/\log_3T))}, $$ where $\log_jT = \log(\log_{j-1}T)$. The proof…

For "almost all" sufficiently large $N,$ satisfying necessary congruence conditions and $k\geq 2$, we show that there is an {\bf asymptotic formula} for the number of solutions of the equation \begin{align*} \begin{split}…

We prove an asymptotic formula for the number of integers $\leq x$ which can be written as the product of $k ~(\geq 2)$ distinct primes $p_1\cdots p_k$ with each prime factor in an arithmetic progression $p_j\equiv a_j \bmod q$, $(a_j,…

Let $X_1,\dots, X_n$ be i.i.d. random variables sampled from a normal distribution $N(\mu,\Sigma)$ in ${\mathbb R}^d$ with unknown parameter $\theta=(\mu,\Sigma)\in \Theta:={\mathbb R}^d\times {\mathcal C}_+^d,$ where ${\mathcal C}_+^d$ is…

Let $A$ be a set of natural numbers and let $S_{n,A}$ be the set of all permutations of $[n]=\{1,2,...,n\}$ with cycle lengths belonging to $A$. For $A(n)=A\cap [n]$, the limit $\rho=\lim_{n\to\infty}\mid A(n)\mid/n$ (if it esists) is…

Let A be a pre-defined set of rational numbers. We say a set of natural numbers S is an A-quotient-free set if no ratio of two elements in S belongs to A. We find the maximal asymptotic density and the maximal upper asymptotic density of…

The sequence of 1/2-discrepancy sums of $\{x + i \theta \bmod 1\}$ is realized through a sequence of substitutions on an alphabet of three symbols; particular attention is paid to $x=0$. The first application is to show that any asymptotic…

Let v be a multiplicative arithmetic function with support of positive asymptotic density. We prove that for any not identically zero arithmetic function f such that \sum_{f(n) \neq 0} 1 / n < \infty, the support of the Dirichlet…

We show that smooth numbers are equidistributed in arithmetic progressions to moduli of size $x^{66/107-o(1)}$. This overcomes a longstanding barrier of $x^{3/5-o(1)}$ present in previous works of Bombieri-Friedlander-Iwaniec,…

A new parametric integral is obtained as a consequence of the Riemann hypothesis. An asymptotic multiplicability is the main property of this integral.
