Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be irrational real numbers and $0<\F<1/30$. We prove a precise estimate for the number of positive integers $q\leq Q$ that satisfy $\|q\alpha\|\cdot\|q\beta\|<\F$. If we choose $\F$ as a function of $Q$ we get…

Let $\tau_k(n)$ be the $k$-th divisor function. In this paper, we derive an asymptotic formula for the sum $$ \sum_{1\leq n_1,n_2, \dots, n_{\ell}\leq X^{\frac{1}{r}} \atop 1\leq n_{\ell+1}\le X^{\frac{1}{s}}}\tau_k(n_1^r+n_2^r+\dots…

A classical result in number theory is Dirichlet's theorem on the density of primes in an arithmetic progression. We prove a similar result for numbers with exactly k prime factors for k>1. Building upon a proof by E.M. Wright in 1954, we…

Using the simple properties of Riemman integrable functions, Ramanujan's formula for sum of the square roots of first n natural numbers has been generalized to include r'th roots where r is any real number greater than 1.As an application…

We develop a multigrade enhancement of the efficient congruencing method to estimate Vinogradov's integral of degree $k$ for moments of order $2s$, thereby obtaining near-optimal estimates for $\tfrac{5}{8}k^2<s\le k^2-k+1$. There are…

We investigate fractional sums of arithmetic functions over products of two or three integers, with emphasis on fixed greatest common divisors and multiplicative weights. Let $f$ be an arithmetic function satisfying $f(n) \ll n^\alpha$ for…

We establish that, for almost all natural numbers $N$, there is a sum of two positive integral cubes lying in the interval $[N-N^{7/18+\epsilon},N]$. Here, the exponent $7/18$ lies half way between the trivial exponent $4/9$ stemming from…

We give an asymptotic formula for correlations \[ \sum_{n\le x}f_1(P_1(n))f_2(P_2(n))\cdot \dots \cdot f_m(P_m(n))\] where $f\dots,f_m$ are bounded "pretentious" multiplicative functions, under certain natural hypotheses. We then deduce…

For fixed $r\geq 3$ and $n$ divisible by $r$, let ${\mathcal H}={\mathcal H}^r_{n,M}$ be the random $M$-edge $r$-graph on $V=\{1,\ldots ,n\}$; that is, ${\mathcal H}$ is chosen uniformly from the $M$-subsets of ${\mathcal K}:={V \choose r}$…

We obtain new Poisson type summation formulas with nodes $\pm \sqrt{n}$ and with weights involving the function $r_k(n)$ that gives the number of representations of a positive integer $n$ as the sum of $k$ squares. Our results extend…

A standard way to calculate the asymptotic behavior of integrals of the form \int_Wg(x)e^{-nh(x)}dx is the (continuous) Laplace asymptotic method. However, also discrete sums like \sum_{x\in W\cap\Lambda_n}g_n(x)e^{-nh_n(x)} have similar…

In this paper, we proposed an interesting problem that might be classified into enumerative combinatorics. Featuring a distinctive two-fold dependence upon the sequences' terms, our problem can be really difficult, which calls for novel…

We prove that if $f(n)$ is a Steinhaus or Rademacher random multiplicative function, there almost surely exist arbitrarily large values of $x$ for which $|\sum_{n \leq x} f(n)| \geq \sqrt{x} (\log\log x)^{1/4+o(1)}$. This is the first such…
