Let $E$ be the union of two real intervals not containing zero. Then $L_n^r(E)$ denotes the supremum norm of that polynomial $P_n$ of degree less than or equal to $n$, which is minimal with respect to the supremum norm provided that…
The asymptotic behaviour is studied of exponentially bounded sequences of codimensions of identities of algebras with unity. A series of algebras is constructed for which the base of the exponential increases by exactly one when an outer…
Hooley proved that if $f\in \Bbb Z [X]$ is irreducible of degree $\ge 2$, then the fractions $\{ r/n\}$, $0<r<n$ with $f(r)\equiv 0\pmod n$, are uniformly distributed in $(0,1)$. In this paper we study such problems for reducible…
In this paper, we study linear forms \[\lambda = \beta_1\mathrm{e}^{\alpha_1}+\cdots+\beta_m\mathrm{e}^{\alpha_m},\] where $\alpha_i$ and $\beta_i$ are algebraic numbers. An explicit lower bound for the absolute value of $\lambda$ is…
Given any irrational number $\alpha$, we show that for any $0<\theta<6/17$, there are infinitely many $y$-smooth (friable) numbers $n$ such that $$\|n\alpha\| < n^{-\theta},$$ where $(\log n)^C\leq y\leq n$ for some large constant $C>0$.…
Let $k\geq 1$ be a small fixed integer. The rational approximations $\left |p/q-\pi^{k} \right |>1/q^{\mu(\pi^k)}$ of the irrational number $\pi^{k}$ are bounded away from zero. A general result for the irrationality exponent $\mu(\pi^k)$…
Let $t(N)$ denote the largest number such that $N!$ can be expressed as the product of $N$ integers greater than or equal to $t(N)$. The bound $t(N)/N = 1/e-o(1)$ was apparently established in unpublished work of Erd\H{o}s, Selfridge, and…
We consider the following boundary value problem -\Delta u= g(x,u) + f(x,u) x\in \Omega u=0 x\in \partial \Omega where $g(x,-\xi)=-g(x,\xi)$ and $g$ has subcritical exponential growth in $\mathbb{R} ^2$. Using the method developed by Bolle,…
We study an exponential sum over Laplacian eigenvalues $\lambda_{j} = 1/4+t_{j}^{2}$ with $t_{j} \leqslant T$ for Maass cusp forms on $\Gamma \backslash \mathbb{H}$, where $\Gamma$ is a cofinite Fuchsian group acting on the upper half-plane…
We show that the sum function of the M\"{o}bius function of a Beurling number system must satisfy the asymptotic bound $M(x)=o(x)$ if it satisfies the prime number theorem and its prime distribution function arises from a monotone…
For an irrational $\alpha\in(0,1)$, we investigate the Ostrowski sum-of-digits function $\sigma_\alpha$. For $\alpha$ having bounded partial quotients and $\vartheta\in\mathbb R\setminus\mathbb Z$, we prove that the function $g:n\mapsto…
We discuss in this paper uniform exponential convergence of sample average approximation (SAA) with adaptive multiple importance sampling (AMIS) and asymptotics of its optimal value. Using a concentration inequality for bounded martingale…
We show that automatic sequences are asymptotically orthogonal to periodic exponentials of type $e_q(f(n))$, where $f$ is a rational fraction, in the P\'olya-Vinogradov range. This applies to Kloosterman sums, and may be used to study…
We provide optimal upper bounds on the growth of iterated sumsets $hA=A+\dots+A$ for finite subsets $A$ of abelian semigroups. More precisely, we show that the new upper bounds recently derived from Macaulay's theorem in commutative algebra…
We obtain an upper bound for the sum $\sum_{n\leq N} (a_{n}/\varphi (a_{n}))^{s}$, where $\varphi$ is Euler's totient function, $s\in \mathbb{N}$, and $a_{1},\ldots, a_{N}$ are positive integers (not necessarily distinct) with some…
In this paper we consider error sums of the form \[\sum_{m=0}^{\infty} \varepsilon_m\Big( \,b_m\alpha - \frac{a_m}{c_m}\,\Big) \,,\] where $\alpha$ is a real number, $a_m$, $b_m$, $c_m$ are integers, and $\varepsilon_m=1$ or $\varepsilon_m…
The asymptotic behavior of expressions of the form $% \sum_{t=1}^{n}f(r_{n}x_{t})$ where $x_{t}$ is an integrated process, $r_{n}$ is a sequence of norming constants, and $f$ is a measurable function has been the subject of a number of…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of a real-valued diffusion whose non-regular drift is given as a sum of a dissipative term and a bounded measurable one. We prove that two trajectories of that diffusion converge a.s. to one another at an…
We study the double sum $S_\varepsilon(X)$$=$$\sum_{\substack{d,e\le X}}\frac{\mu(d)\mu(e)}{[d,e]^{1+\varepsilon}}$, which converges even in the case $\varepsilon=0$, where $\mu$ denotes the M\"obius function and $[d,e]$ is the least common…
We investigate the sums $\sum_{n\le X, (n,q)=1}\frac{\mu(n)}{n^s}\log^k\left(\frac{X}{n}\right)$, where $k\in\{0,1\}$, $s\in\mathbb{C}$, $\Re s>0$. Our goal is to obtain explicit asymptotic estimations for these quantities. To achieve this,…
