In this note we prove optimal inequalities for bounded functions in terms of their deviation from their mean. These results extend and generalize some known inequalities due to Thong (2011) and Perfetti (2011)
Let $f(t, y,y')=\sum_{i=0}^d a_i(t, y)y'^i=0$ be a first order ordinary differential equation with polynomial coefficients. Eremenko in 1999 proved that there exists a constant $C$ such that every rational solution of $f(t, y,y')=0$ is of…
We use an estimate of Aksoy Yazici, Murphy, Rudnev and Shkredov (2016) on the number of solutions of certain equations involving products and differences of sets in prime finite fields to give an explicit upper bound on trilinear…
In their work, Serre and Swinnerton-Dyer study the congruence properties of the Fourier coefficients of modular forms. We examine similar congruence properties, but for the coefficients of a modified Taylor expansion about a CM point…
The Hausdorff-Young inequality for Euclidean space, in its sharp form due to Beckner, gives an upper bound for the Fourier transform in terms of Lebesgue space norms, with an optimal constant. The extremizers have been identified by Lieb to…
We obtain unconditional, effective number-field analogues of the three Mertens' theorems, all with explicit constants and valid for $x\geq 2$. Our error terms are explicitly bounded in terms of the degree and discriminant of the number…
In this paper, new upper and lower bounds for the Trapezoid inequality of absolutely continuous functions are obtained. Applications to some special means are provided as well.
A famous conjecture of Erd\H os and Straus is that for every integer $n\ge2$, $4/n$ can be represented as $1/x+1/y+1/z$, where $x,y,z$ are positive integers. This conjecture was generalized to $5/n$ by Sierpi\'nski, and then Schinzel…
The nonlinear Hausdorff-Young inequality follows from the work of Christ and Kiselev. Later Muscalu, Tao, and Thiele asked if the constants can be chosen independently of the exponent. We show that the nonlinear Hausdorff-Young quotient…
In this paper we completely solve the family of parametrised Thue equations \[ X(X-F_n Y)(X-2^n Y)-Y^3=\pm 1, \] where $F_n$ is the $n$-th Fibonacci number. In particular, for any integer $n\geq 3$ the Thue equation has only the trivial…
We prove a fractional Hardy-Rellich inequality with an explicit constant in bounded domains of class $C^{1,1}$. The strategy of the proof generalizes an approach pioneered by E. Mitidieri (Mat. Zametki, 2000) by relying on a Pohozaev-type…
In this paper, we introduce a novel indefinite summation $\sum_{t} f(t)$ (or antidifference $\Delta ^{-1}f(t) $ ) formula for any given function $f$. We apply the indefinite summation formula to calculate a particular solution to a…
Let us denote by $\tau(n)$ and $\si(n)$ the number and the sum of the divisors of $n$ and by $\vfi$ Euler's function. We give effective upper bounds for $\frac{n}{\vfi(n)}$ in terms of $\vfi(n)$, and for $\frac{\si(n)}{n}$ in terms of…
We show that there are $O(B^{3/5-3/1555+\ep})$ triples $(x,y,z)$ of square-full integesr up to $B$ satisfying the equation $x+y=z$ for any fixed $\ep>0$. This is the first improvement over the `easy' exponent $3/5$, given by Browning and…
One of the first parametrised Thue equations, $$\left| X^3 - (n-1)X^2 Y - (n+2) XY^2 - Y^3 \right| = 1,$$ over the integers was solved by E. Thomas in 1990. If we interpret this as a norm-form equation, we can write this as $$\left|…
We study integer coefficient polynomials of fixed degree and maximum height $H$, that are irreducible by Dumas's criterion. We call such polynomials Dumas polynomials. We derive upper bounds on the number of Dumas polynomials, as $H$…
This paper examines various aspects related to the Cauchy functional equation $f(x+y)=f(x)+f(y)$, a fundamental equation in the theory of functional equations. In particular, it considers its solvability and its stability relative to…
Erd\H{o}s posed the question whether there exist infinitely many sets of consecutive numbers whose least common multiple (lcm) exceeds the lcm of another, larger set with greater consecutive numbers. In this paper, we answer this question…
This paper announces the discovery of an isoperimetric inequality for the area of plane regions defined by binary forms. This result has been applied subsequently in the enumeration of solutions to the Thue inequality and, given its…
We solve two long-standing open problems on word equations. Firstly, we prove that a one-variable word equation with constants has either at most three or an infinite number of solutions. The existence of such a bound had been conjectured,…
