Let $f : \mathbf{N} \rightarrow \mathbf{C}$ be a bounded multiplicative function. Let $a$ be a fixed integer (say $a = 1$). Then $f$ is well-distributed on the progression $n \equiv a \pmod{q} \subset \{1,\dots, X\}$, for almost all primes…
Let $B$ be the set of odd integers that are sums of two coprime squares. We prove that the trigonometric polynomial $S(\alpha;N)=\sum_{b\in B,b\leq N} e(b\alpha)$ satisfies \[ \frac{S(\alpha; N)}{N/\sqrt{\log N}}<<_{A,A'} \frac{1}{\phi(q)}…
Suppose that $f(z)$ is a transcendental entire function and that the Fatou set $F(f)\neq\emptyset$. Set $$B_1(f):=\sup_{U}\frac{\sup_{z\in U}\log(|z|+3)}{\inf_{w\in U}\log(|w|+3)}$$ and $$B_2(f):=\sup_{U}\frac{\sup_{z\in…
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…
We obtain new bounds of exponential sums modulo a prime $p$ with sparse polynomials $a_0x^{n_0} + \cdots + a_{\nu}x^{n_\nu}$. The bounds depend on various greatest common divisors of exponents $n_0, \ldots, n_\nu$ and their differences. In…
We construct a non - improved exponential bounds for distribution of normed sums of i.,i.d. random variables with random numbers of summand.
Let $A(s) = \sum_n a_n n^{-s}$ be a Dirichlet series with meromorphic continuation. Say we are given information on the poles of $A(s)$ with $|\Im s| \leq T$ for some large constant $T$. What is the best way to use such finite spectral data…
We show that if an exponential sum with multiplicative coefficients is large then the associated multiplicative function is "pretentious". This leads to applications in the circle method, and a natural interpretation of the local-global…
In this paper, we study the linear mapping which sends the sequence $x=(x_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ to $y=(y_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ where $y_n = \sum_{k=1}^\infty f(n/k)x_k$ for $f: \mathbb{Q}^+ \to \mathbb{C}$. This operator is the…
We consider upper exponential bounds for the probability of the event that an absolute deviation of sample mean from mathematical expectation p is bigger comparing with some ordered level epsilon. These bounds include 2 coefficients {alpha,…
Let $f\colon\mathbb{N}\rightarrow\mathbb{N}_0$ be a multiplicative arithmetic function such that for all primes $p$ and positive integers $\alpha$, $f(p^{\alpha})<p^{\alpha}$ and $f(p)\vert f(p^{\alpha})$. Suppose also that any prime that…
Sign changes in sums of arithmetic functions and their inverses are a subtle topic with room to grow new results. Suppose that $S_f(x) := \sum_{n \leq x} f(n)$ is the summatory function of some arithmetic function $f$ such that $f(1) \neq…
We establish the limiting distribution of $\frac{{(\log \log x)}^{1/4}}{\sqrt{x}} \sum_{n\le x}\alpha(n)$ where $\alpha$ is a Steinhaus random multiplicative function, answering a question of Harper. The distributional convergence is proved…
Let S be a subset of the unit disk, and let F(s) denote the class of completely multiplicative functions f such that f(p) is in S for all primes p. The authors' main concern is which numbers arise as mean-values of functions in F(s). More…
Recently, the authors showed that for every irrational number $\alpha$, there exist infinitely many positive integers $n$ represented by any given positive definite binary quadratic form $Q$, satisfying $||\alpha n||<n^{-(1/2-\varepsilon)}$…
Let $f$ be a $C^{2+\epsilon}$ expanding map of the circle and $v$ be a $C^{1+\epsilon}$ real function of the circle. Consider the twisted cohomological equation $v(x) = \alpha (f(x)) - Df(x) \alpha (x)$ which has a unique bounded solution…
We study sums of a random multiplicative function; this is an example, of number-theoretic interest, of sums of products of independent random variables (chaoses). Using martingale methods, we establish a normal approximation for the sum…
