We provide a lower bound for the dimension of the vector space spanned by 1 and by the values of the Riemann Zeta function at the first odd integers. As a consequence, the Zeta function takes infinitely many irrational values at odd…

We deduce an asymptotic formula with error term for the sum $\sum_{n_1,\ldots,n_k \le x} f([n_1,\ldots, n_k])$, where $[n_1,\ldots, n_k]$ stands for the least common multiple of the positive integers $n_1,\ldots, n_k$ ($k\ge 2$) and $f$…

We answer a question of Katona and Makar-Limanov, by showing that in an abelian group of order $2h$ the $h$-element subset sums are asymptotically (as $h\to \infty$) equidistributed. In fact we prove a more general result where the order of…

For numerical semigroups with three generators, we study the asymptotic behavior of weighted factorization lengths, that is, linear functionals of the coefficients in the factorizations of semigroup elements. This work generalizes many…

We study an asymptotic formula for average orders of Goldbach representations of an integer as the sum of k primes. We extend the existing result for k=2 to a general k, for which we obtain a better error term. Moreover, we prove an…

A conjecture predicting an injective and surjective mapping $X = \displaystyle\frac{\sigma(p^k)}{p^k}, Y = \displaystyle\frac{\sigma(m^2)}{m^2}$ between OPNs $N = {p^k}{m^2}$ (with Euler factor $p^k$) and rational points on the hyperbolic…

First we give here a simple proof of a remarkable result of Videnskii and Shirokov: let $B$ be a Blaschke product with $n$ zeros, then there exists an outer function $\phi, \phi(0)=1$, such that $\|(B\phi)'\| \leq C n$, where $C$ is an…

Nadarajah and Gupta (2004) introduced the beta Fr\'echet (BF) distribution, which is a generalization of the exponentiated Fr\'echet (EF) and Fr\'echet distributions, and obtained the probability density and cumulative distribution…

The origin of deterministic diffusion is a matter of discussion. We study the asymptotic distributions of the sums $y_n(x)=\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}\psi (x+k\alpha)$, where $\psi$ is a periodic function of bounded variation and $\alpha$ an…

Gibbs random fields play an important role in statistics. However they are complicated to work with due to an intractability of the likelihood function and there has been much work devoted to finding computational algorithms to allow…

Analytical expressions are derived for the position of irreducible fractions in the Farey sequence $F_N$ of order $N$ for a particular choice of $N$. The asymptotic behaviour is derived obtaining a lower error bound than in previous results…

In this manuscript we introduce a generalisation of the log-Normal distribution that is inspired by a modification of the Kaypten multiplicative process using the $q$-product of Borges [Physica A \textbf{340}, 95 (2004)]. Depending on the…

Many natural and social systems possess power-law memory, and their mathematical modeling requires the application of discrete and continuous fractional calculus. Most of these systems are nonlinear and demonstrate regular and chaotic…

We investigate the averages of Dedekind sums over rational numbers in the set $$\mathscr{F}_\alpha(Q):=\{\, {v}/{w}\in \mathbb{Q}: 0<w\leq Q\,\}\cap [0, \alpha)$$ for fixed $\alpha\leq 1/2$. In previous work, we obtained asymptotics for…

Let $k = \mathbb{F}_{q}(T)$ be the rational function field over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$, where $q$ is a power of $2$. In this paper we solve the problem of averaging the quadratic $L$-functions $L(s, \chi_{u})$ over fundamental…

We prove that in every ring of generalised power series with non-positive real exponents and coefficients in a field of characteristic zero, every series admits a factorisation into finitely many irreducibles of infinite support, the number…

For a fixed number field $K$, we consider the mean square error in estimating the number of primes with norm congruent to $a$ modulo $q$ by the Chebotar\"ev Density Theorem when averaging over all $q\le Q$ and all appropriate $a$. Using a…

We prove a sharp upper bound for the fourth moment of the Hurwitz zeta function $\zeta(s,\alpha)$ on the critical line when the shift parameter $\alpha$ is irrational and of irrationality exponent strictly less than 3. As a consequence, we…

Let $ x\geq 1 $ be a large number, let $ [x]=x-\{x\} $ be the largest integer function, and let $ \sigma(n)$ be the sum of divisors function. This note presents the first proof of the asymptotic formula for the average order $ \sum_{p\leq…

We study two types of problems for polynomial Farey fractions. For a positive integer $Q$, and polynomial $P(x)\in\mathbb{Z}[X]$ with $P(0)=0$, we define polynomial Farey fractions as \[\mathcal{F}_{Q,P}:=\left\{\frac{a}{q}: 1\leq a\leq…
