For the generalized Jacobi, Laguerre and Hermite polynomials $P_n^{(\alpha_n, \beta_n)} (x), L_n^{(\alpha_n)} (x),$\break $H_n^{(\gamma_n)} (x)$ the limit distributions of the zeros are found, when the sequences $\alpha_n$ or $\beta_n$ tend…
Let $p>1$ be a large prime number, let $q=O(\log\log p)$ and let $1\leq a<q$ be a pair of relatively prime integers. It is proved that there is a prime primitive root $u\ll (\log p)(\log \log p)^5$ such that $u\equiv a\bmod q$ in the prime…
We show that the logarithm $\log_q$ of the Frobenius morphism $x\to x^q$ is given by the formula $x\to x\log x$ (the natural logarithm). In particular, it does not depend on $q$. This is the explicit (although heuristical) formula for the…
In this paper we prove that for all degree $6$ polynomials with rational coefficients that $F(\mathbb{Z}^2) \neq \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}$. The answers a question of B. Poonen and J. S. Lew in the degree 6 case. This work builds on previous work…
Using subresultants, we modify a recent real-algebraic proof due to Eisermann of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra ([FTA]) to obtain the following quantitative information: in order to prove the [FTA] for polynomials of degree $d$, the…
We establish completely log-free bounds for exponential sums over the primes and the M\"{o}bius function. Let $0<\eta \leq 1/10$, and suppose $\alpha = a/q + \delta/x$, with $(a,q)=1$ and $|\delta| \leq x^{1/5 + \eta}/q$, and set $\delta_0…
Let $a_1$, $a_2$, and $a_3$ be distinct reduced residues modulo $q$ satisfying the congruences $a_1^2 \equiv a_2^2 \equiv a_3^2 \pmod q$. We conditionally derive an asymptotic formula, with an error term that has a power savings in $q$, for…
Let $P$ be a polynomial that depends on two variables $X$ and $Y$ and has algebraic coefficients. If $x$ and $y$ are algebraic numbers with $P(x,y)=0$, then by work of N\'eron $h(x)/q$ is asymptotically equal to $h(y)/p$ where $p$ and $q$…
Given positive real numbers, we prove two inequalities involving their potential energy and their power sums. We also prove an inequality involving the energy and the discriminant and apply it to deduce a result on totally positive…
Let $E(s, Q)$ be the Epstein zeta function attached to a positive definite quadratic form of discriminant $D<0$, such that $h(D)\geq 2$, where $h(D)$ is the class number of the imaginary quadratic field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{D})$. We denote by…
For $\alpha, \beta, \delta \in [0,1], \alpha +\beta = 1 $ we consider sets $$ {\rm BAD}^* (\alpha, \beta ;\delta) = \left\{\xi = (\xi_1,\xi_2) \in [0,1]^2: ,\inf_{p\in \mathbb{N}} \max \{(p\log(p+1))^\alpha ||p\xi_1||, (p\log (p+1))^\beta…
We study a certain class of arithmetic functions that appeared in Klurman's classification of $\pm 1$ multiplicative functions with bounded partial sums, c.f., Comp. Math. 153 (8), 2017, pp. 1622-1657. These functions are periodic and…
The primary purpose of this article is to study the asymptotic and numerical estimates in detail for higher degree polynomials in $\pi(x)$ having a general expression of the form, \begin{align*} P(\pi(x)) - \frac{e x}{\log x} Q(\pi(x/e)) +…
Let $f(x_1,\ldots,x_s)$ be a translation invariant indefinite quadratic form of integer coefficients with $s\ge 10$. Let $\mathcal{A}\subseteq \mathcal{P}\cap \{1,2,\ldots,X\}$. Let $X$ be sufficiently large. Subject to a rank condition, we…
In this paper, we present new explicit simultaneous rational approximations converging sub-exponentially to the values of Bell polynomials at the points of the form $(\gamma, 1! (2a+1)\zeta(2), 2!\zeta(3),..., (m-1)!(a+1+(-1)^ma)\zeta(m)),$…
It is shown that the $L^\alpha$-norms polynomials Rudin conjecture fails. Our counterexample is inspired by Bourgain's work on NLS. Precisely, his study of the Strichartz's inequality of the $L^6$-norm of the periodic solutions given by the…
We study separable plus quadratic (SPQ) polynomials, i.e., polynomials that are the sum of univariate polynomials in different variables and a quadratic polynomial. Motivated by the fact that nonnegative separable and nonnegative quadratic…
We generalize Dirichlet's diophantine approximation theorem to approximating any real number $\alpha$ by a sum of two rational numbers $\frac{a_1}{q_1} + \frac{a_2}{q_2}$ with denominators $1 \leq q_1, q_2 \leq N$. This turns out to be…
We consider asymptotics of planar orthogonal polynomials $P_{n,N}$ (where $\mathrm{deg}P_{n,N}=n$) with respect to the weight $$\frac{|z-w|^{2NQ_1}}{(1+|z|^2)^{N(1+Q_0+Q_1)+1}}, \quad(Q_0,Q_1 > 0)$$ in the whole complex plane. With $n,…
Let $n$ be a positive integer and $\alpha_n$ be the arithmetic function which assigns the multiplicative order of $a^n$ modulo $n$ to every integer $a$ coprime to $n$ and vanishes elsewhere. Similarly, let $\beta_n$ assign the projective…
