The Bohnenblust-Hille inequality was obtained in 1931 and (in the case of real scalars) asserts that for every positive integer $N$ and every $m$-linear mapping $T:\ell_{\infty}^{N}\times...\times\ell_{\infty}^{N}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ one…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $d$ the degree of a complex irreducible character of $G$, then write $|G|=d(d+e)$ where $e$ is a nonnegative integer. We prove that $|G|\leq e^4-e^3$ whenever $e>1$. This bound is best possible and improves on…
Here is a sample of the results proved in this paper: Let $f:{\bf R}\to {\bf R}$ be a continuous function, let $\rho>0$ and let $\omega:[0,\rho[\to [0,+\infty[$ be a continuous increasing function such that $\lim_{\xi\to…
This paper studies two classical inequalities, namely the Hausdorff-Young inequality and equal-exponent Young's convolution inequality, for discrete functions supported in the binary cube $\{0,1\}^d\subset\mathbb{Z}^d$. We characterize the…
In this paper, we establish some nontrivial and effective upper bounds for the least common multiple of consecutive terms of a finite arithmetic progression. Precisely, we prove that for any two coprime positive integers $a$ and $b$, with…
We give a new bound on the number of collinear triples for two arbitrary subsets of a finite field. This improves on existing results which rely on the Cauchy inequality. We then us this to provide a new bound on trilinear and quadrilinear…
E. Thomas was one of the first to solve an infinite family of Thue equations, when he considered the forms $F_n(X, Y )= X^3 -(n-1)X^2Y -(n+2)XY^2 -Y^3$ and the family of equations $F_n(X, Y )=\pm 1$, $n\in {\mathbf N}$. This family is…
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…
\noindent Using the techniques connected with the measure of noncompactness we investigate the neutral difference equation of the following form \begin{equation*} \Delta \left(r_{n}\left(\Delta \left(x_{n}+p_{n}x_{n-k}\right) \right)…
Let $(A_n)_{n\in \mathbb{N}}, (B_n)_{n\in \mathbb{N}} \in \mathbb{Z}^{\mathbb{N}}$ be two linear-recurrent sequences that meet a dominant root condition and a few more technical requirements. We show that the split family of Thue equations…
A new method for solving stiff boundary value problems is described and compared to other known approaches using the Troesch's problem as a test example. The method is based on the general idea of alternate approximation of either the…
We study the number of irreducible polynomials over $\mathbf{F}_{q}$ with some coefficients prescribed. Using the technique developed by Bourgain, we show that there is an irreducible polynomial of degree $n$ with $r$ coefficients…
Let G be a finite group of order n and V an irreducible representation over the complex numbers of dimension d. For some nonnegative number e, we have n=d(d+e). If e is small, then the character of V has unusually large degree. We fix e and…
We consider Diophantine inequalities of the kind |f(x)| \le m, where F(X) \in Z[X] is a homogeneous polynomial which can be expressed as a product of d homogeneous linear forms in n variables with complex coefficients and m\ge 1. We say…
We introduce a natural definition for sums of the form \[ \sum_{\nu=1}^x f(\nu) \] when the number of terms x is a rather arbitrary real or even complex number. The resulting theory includes the known interpolation of the factorial by the…
The Hardy--Littlewood inequalities for multilinear forms on sequence spaces state that for all positive integers $m,n\geq2$ and all $m$-linear forms $T:\ell_{p_{1}}^{n}\times\cdots\times\ell_{p_{m}}^{n}\rightarrow\mathbb{K}$…
Recently, De Lellis and Sz\'ekelyhidi constructed H\"older continuous, dissipative (weak) solutions to the incompressible Euler equations in the torus $\mathbb T^3$. The construction consists in adding fast oscillations to the trivial…
We present an algorithm producing all rational functions $f$ with prescribed $n+1$ Taylor coefficients at the origin and such that $\|f\|_\infty\le 1$ and $\deg f\le k$ for every fixed $k\ge n$. The case where $k<n$ is also discussed.
We estimate the norms of many matrix coefficients of irreducible uniformly bounded representations of SL(2, R) as completely bounded multipliers of the Fourier algebra. Our results suggest that the known inequality relating the uniformly…
We first recall the connection, going back to A. Thue, between rational approximation to algebraic numbers and integer solutions of some Diophantine equations. Next we recall the equivalence between several finiteness results on various…
