A modified Dirichlet character $f$ is a completely multiplicative function such that for some Dirichlet character $\chi$, $f(p)=\chi(p)$ for all but a finite number of primes $p\in S$, and for those exceptional primes $p\in S$, $|f(p)|\leq…
We investigate the first and second moments of shifted convolutions of the generalised divisor function $d_3(n)$.
In this paper, we consider the following $(A, B)$-polynomial $f$ over finite field: $$f(x_0,x_1,\cdots,x_n)=x_0^Ah(x_1,\cdots,x_n)+g(x_1,\cdots,x_n)+P_B(1/x_0),$$ where $h$ is a Deligne polynomial of degree $d$, $g$ is an arbitrary…
The $L$-function of exponential sums associated to the generic polynomial of degree $d$ in $n$ variables over a finite field of characteristic $p$ is studied. A polygon called the Frobenius polygon of the generic polynomial of degree $d$ in…
We extend the results obtained by E. Ntienjem to all positive integers. Let $\EuFrak{N}$ be the subset of $\mathbb{N}$ consisting of $\,2^{\nu}\mho$, where $\nu$ is in $\{0,1,2,3\}$ and $\mho$ is a squarefree finite product of distinct odd…
We extend deconvolution in a periodic setting to deal with functional data. The resulting functional deconvolution model can be viewed as a generalization of a multitude of inverse problems in mathematical physics where one needs to recover…
We estimate asymptotically the fourth moment of the Riemann zeta-function twisted by a Dirichlet polynomial of length $T^{\frac14 - \varepsilon}$. Our work relies crucially on Watt's theorem on averages of Kloosterman fractions. In the…
We study the finite dimensional spaces $V$ which are invariant under the action of the finite differences operator $\Delta_h^m$. Concretely, we prove that if $V$ is such an space, there exists a finite dimensional translation invariant…
The sequence $F_{dn+h}$ and its convolutions have (for $h=0$) been studied in a recent paper at the arxiv [arXiv:2603.08636]. The instance with general $h$ is more involved and uses Chebyshev polynomials.
In this paper, we show the existence of a transcendental function $f\in\mathbb{Z}\{z\}$ with coefficients that are almost all bounded such that $f$ and all its derivatives assume algebraic values at algebraic points. Furthermore, we…
Erd\H{o}s proved that $\mathcal{F}(A) := \sum_{a \in A}\frac{1}{a\log a}$ converges for any primitive set of integers $A$ and later conjectured this sum is maximized when $A$ is the set of primes. Banks and Martin further conjectured that…
In [arXiv:2107.01437], the authors studied the mean-square of certain sums of the divisor function $d_k(f)$ over the function field $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ in the limit as $q \to \infty$ and related these sums to integrals over the ensemble of…
Given two arithmetical functions $f,g$ we derive, under suitable conditions, asymptotic formulas with error term, for the convolution sums $\sum_{n \le N} f(n) g(n+h)$, building on an earlier work of Gadiyar, Murty and Padma. A key role in…
In this paper, we investigate shared value problems for shifts and higher-order difference operators of meromorphic and entire functions in several complex variables. Using Nevanlinna theory in $\mathbb{C}^n$, we obtain new uniqueness…
This paper considers convolution equations that arise from problems such as measurement error and non-parametric regression with errors in variables with independence conditions. The equations are examined in spaces of generalized functions…
Given a function f with an absolutely convergent Fourier series, we define the norm of f as ||f||_A = the sum of absolute values of the Fourier coefficients of f. We study the behavior of ||f^n||_A as n goes to infinity, for f of the form…
In this paper, we will prove the non-trivial bound for the weighted average version of shifted convolution sum for $GL(3)\times GL(2)$, i.e. for any $\epsilon >0$ and $X^{1/4+\delta} \leq H \leq X$ with $\delta >0$, \[…
An explicit formula for the quadratic mean value at $s=1$ of the Dirichlet $L$-functions associated with the odd Dirichlet characters modulo $f>2$ is known. Here we present a situation where we could prove an explicit formula for the…
By using the $q$-analogue of van der Corput's method we study the divisor function in an arithmetic progression to modulus $q$. We show that the expected asymptotic formula holds for a larger range of $q$ than was previously known, provided…
In this paper we prove an explicit version of a function field analogue of a classical result of Odoni about norms in number fields in the case of a cyclic Galois extensions. In the particular case of a quadratic extension, we recover the…
