In his groundbreaking work on pair correlation, Montgomery analyzed the distribution of the differences $\gamma'-\gamma$ between ordinates $\gamma$ of the nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function, assuming the Riemann Hypothesis. In…

In this manuscript we analyse the behaviour of the probability density function of the sum of $N$ deterministic variables generated from the triangle map of Casati-Prosen. For the case in which the map is both ergodic and mixing the…

The Bernoulli convolution associated to the real $\beta>1$ and the probability vector $(p_0,..,p_{d-1})$ is a probability measure $\eta_{\beta,p}$ on $\mathbb R$, solution of the self-similarity relation…

In the paper we obtain new estimates for binary and ternary sums of multiplicative characters with additive convolutions of characteristic functions of sets, having small additive doubling. In particular, we improve a result of M.-C. Chang.…

We study the probability, $P_S(t)$, of a cluster to remain intact in one-dimensional cluster-cluster aggregation when the cluster diffusion coefficient scales with size as $D(s) \sim s^\gamma$. $P_S(t)$ exhibits a stretched exponential…

We study the asymptotic behavior of the sums of divisors when the integers are modelled with the Bernoulli random walk; We prealably study the correlation properties of the corresponding system.

We study discrete expressions of the form $$ T_n(g)=\sum_{i=1}^n a_i g(S_i), \qquad S_i=\sum_{j=1}^i a_j, $$ where $a_i>0$ and $\sum_{i=1}^n a_i=1$. If $g:[0,1]\to\mathbb{R}$ is a decreasing integrable function, we have $$ \sum_{i=1}^n a_i…

For each $s\in \mathbb R$ and $n\in \mathbb N$, let $\sigma_s(n) = \sum_{d\mid n}d^s$. In this article, we give a comparison between $\sigma_s(an+b)$ and $\sigma_s(cn+d)$ where $a$, $b$, $c$, $d$, $s$ are fixed, the vectors $(a,b)$ and…

The S-measure construction from nonstandard analysis is used to prove an extension of a result on the intersection of sets in a finitely-additive measure space. This is then used to give a density-limit version of a representation theorem…

We consider the sequential composite binary hypothesis testing problem in which one of the hypotheses is governed by a single distribution while the other is governed by a family of distributions whose parameters belong to a known set…

We solve multiple conjectures by Byszewski and Ulas about the sum of base $b$ digits function. In order to do this, we develop general results about summations over the sum of digits function. As a corollary, we describe an unexpected new…

Simpson's Paradox is a well-known phenomenon in statistical science, where the relationship between the response variable $X$ and a certain explanatory factor of interest $A$ reverses when an additional factor $B_1$ is considered. This…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of the classical Dedekind sums $s(s_k/t_k)$ for the sequence of convergents $s_k/t_k$ $k\ge 0$, of the transcendental number \BD \sum_{j=0}^\infty\frac {1}{b^{2^j}},\ b\ge 3. \ED In particular, we show that…

Let $s_q(n)$ denote the sum of the digits in the $q$-ary expansion of an integer $n$. In 2005, Melfi examined the structure of $n$ such that $s_2(n) = s_2(n^2)$. We extend this study to the more general case of generic $q$ and polynomials…

Correlation functions in concentrated ionic systems are studied within the mesoscopic theory at the level of the Gaussian approximation. The previously neglected fluctuation contribution to the inverse charge-charge correlation function is…

IIt is demonstrated that the entropy of statistical mechanics and of information theory, $S({\bf p}) = -\sum p_i \log p_i $ may be viewed as a measure of correlation. Given a probability distribution on two discrete variables, $p_{ij}$, we…

Inspired by a question asked on the list {\tt mathfun}, we revisit {\em Kempner-like series}, i.e., harmonic sums $\sum' 1/n$ where the integers $n$ in the summation have ``restricted'' digits. First we give a short proof that $\lim_{k \to…

We consider the generalized Thue-Morse sequences $(t_n^{(c)})_{n\ge 0}$ ($c \in [0,1)$ being a parameter) defined by $t_n^{(c)} = e^{2\pi i c s_2(n)}$, where $s_2(n)$ is the sum of digits of the binary expansion of $n$. For the polynomials…
