Let $A(s) = \sum_n a_n n^{-s}$ be a Dirichlet series with meromorphic continuation. Say we are given information on the poles of $A(s)$ with $|\Im s| \leq T$ for some large constant $T$. What is the best way to use such finite spectral data…
We obtain a uniform ergodic theorem for the sequence $\frac1{s(n)} \sum_{k=0}^n(\varDelta s)(n-k)\,T^k$, where $\varDelta$ is the inverse of the endomorphism on the vector space of scalar sequences which maps each sequence into the sequence…
Let $A\subset [1, 2]$ be a $(\delta, \sigma)$-set with measure $|A|=\delta^{1-\sigma}$ in the sense of Katz and Tao. For $\sigma\in (1/2, 1)$ we show that $$ |A+A|+|AA|\gtrapprox \delta^{-c}|A|, $$ for…
We study the Dirichlet series $F_b(s)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty d_b(n)n^{-s}$, where $d_b(n)$ is the sum of the base-$b$ digits of the integer $n$, and $G_b(s)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty S_b(n)n^{-s}$, where $S_b(n)=\sum_{m=1}^{n-1}d_b(m)$ is the summatory…
It is a well known result that for $\beta\in(1,\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2})$ and $x\in(0,\frac{1}{\beta-1})$ there exists uncountably many $(\epsilon_{i})_{i=1}^{\infty}\in {0,1}^{\mathbb{N}}$ such that…
For a positive irrational number $\alpha,$ we study the ordinary Dirichlet series $\zeta_\alpha(s) = \sum\limits_{n\geq1} \lfloor\alpha n\rfloor^{-s}$ and $S_\alpha(s) = \sum\limits_{n\geq1} (\left\lceil\alpha n\right\rceil - \left\lceil…
A More Sums Than Differences (MSTD) set is a set $A$ for which $|A+A|>|A-A|$. Martin and O'Bryant proved that the proportion of MSTD sets in $\{0,1,\dots,n\}$ is bounded below by a positive number as $n$ goes to infinity. Iyer, Lazarev,…
This note deals with the relationship between the abscissas of simple, uniform and absolute convergence for the Dirichlet series $f(s) = \sum_{n=1}^\infty a_n n^{-s}$, when the coefficients $a_n$ are either multiplicative or completely…
Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we provide uniform upper bounds with explicit main terms for moduli of $\left(\cL'/\cL\right)(s)$ and $\log{\cL(s)}$ for $1/2+\delta\leq\sigma<1$, fixed $\delta\in(0,1/2)$ and for functions in…
For any real $k\geq 2$ and large prime $q$, we prove a lower bound on the $2k$-th moment of the Dirichlet character sum \begin{equation*} \frac{1}{\phi(q)} \sum_{\substack{\chi \text{ mod }q\\ \chi\neq \chi_0}} \Big| \sum_{n\leq x}…
The Landau-Selberg-Delange method provides an asymptotic formula for the partial sums of a multiplicative function whose average value on primes is a fixed complex number $v$. The shape of this asymptotic implies that $f$ can get very small…
Let $F(s)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{a_n}{n^s}$ be a Dirichlet series in the axiomatically defined class ${\mathfrak A}^{\#}$ . The class ${\mathfrak A}^{\#}$ is known to contain the extended Selberg class ${\mathcal S}^{\#}$, as well as all…
For a given Dirichlet character $\chi (n) = e^{i \theta_n}$, we prove central limit theorems for the series $\sum_{p'} \cos \theta_{p'}$ for non-principal characters, and $\sum_{p' } \cos (t \log p')$ for principal characters, where $p'$…
The Dirichlet series $L_m(s)$ are of fundamental importance in number theory. Shanks defined the generalized Euler and class numbers in connection with these Dirichlet series, denoted by $\{s_{m,n}\}_{n\geq 0}$. We obtain a formula for the…
Assuming the Generalised Riemann Hypothesis, we prove a sharp upper bound on moments of shifted Dirichlet $L$-functions. We use this to obtain conditional upper bounds on high moments of theta functions. Both of these results strengthen…
We prove that $$ \int_1^X\Delta(x)\Delta_3(x)\,dx \ll X^{13/9}\log^{10/3}X, \quad \int_1^X\Delta(x)\Delta_4(x)\,dx \ll_\varepsilon X^{25/16+\varepsilon}, $$ where $\Delta_k(x)$ is the error term in the asymptotic formula for the summatory…
Let $d(n)$ be the Dirichlet divisor function and $\Delta(x)$ denote the error term of the sum $\sum_{n\leqslant x}d(n)$ for a large real variable $x$. In this paper we focus on the sum $\sum_{p\leqslant x}\Delta^2(p)$, where $p$ runs over…
By making use of arithmetic information inequalities, we give a strong quantitative bound for the discretised ring theorem. In particular, we show that if $A \subset [1,2]$ is a $(\delta,\sigma)$-set, with $|A| = \delta^{-\sigma},$ then…

Given a multiplicative function f satisfying |f(n)| <= 1 for all n, the authors study the problem of obtaining explicit upper bounds on the mean-value 1/x |sum_{n <= x} f(n)|.
