We obtain an asymptotic formula for the L^1 norm of the exponential sum $M(\alpha) = \sum_{n\le X}\tau(n)e(n\alpha)$ where $\tau(n) = \sum_{d|n} 1$ is the divisor function. In particular, we show that it is $\sim C\sqrt{X}\log X$ with $C =…

Let $\Delta(x)$ be the error term of the Dirichlet divisor problem. The asymptotic formula of the integral $\int_1^T\Delta^k(x)dx$ is established for any integer $3\leq k\leq 9$ by an unified method. Similar results are also established for…

In this paper, we study the alternating Euler $T$-sums and $\S$-sums, which are infinite series involving (alternating) odd harmonic numbers, and have similar forms and close relations to the Dirichlet beta functions. By using the method of…

In this paper we study the Dirichlet problem corresponding to an open bounded set $D\subset \mathbb{R}^{d}$ and the operator \begin{equation*} A=\sum_{i=1}^{d}a\frac{\partial ^{2}}{\partial x_{i}^{2}} +\sum_{i=1}^{d}b_{i}\frac{\partial…

For the shifted convolution sum $$ D_h(X)=\sum_{m=1}^\infty\lambda_1(1,m)\lambda_2(m+h)V(\frac{m}{X}) $$ where $\lambda_1(1,m)$ are the Fourier coefficients of a $SL(3,\mathbb Z)$ Maass form $\pi_1$, and $\lambda_2(m)$ are those of a…

In this article, we consider the weighted partition function $p_f(n)$ given by the generating series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} p_f(n)z^n = \prod_{n\in\mathbb{N}^{*}}(1-z^n)^{-f(n)}$, where we restrict the class of weight functions to strongly…

We study the shifted convolution sum of the divisor function and some other arithmetic functions.

In this paper, we introduce a class of Dirichlet series defined in terms of the Riemann zeta-function, motivated by the study of their special values, and establish integral representations for these series. We also define an extension of…

We study the triple convolution sum of the generalised divisor functions $$\sum_{n\leq x} d_k(n+h)d_l(n)d_m(n-h),$$ where $h \le x^{1-\epsilon}$ for any $\epsilon>0$ and $d_k(n)$ denotes the generalised divisor function which counts the…

In this paper, we obtain sharp estimates for the number of lattice points under and near the dilation of a general parabola, the former generalizing an old result of Popov. We apply Vaaler's lemma and the Erd\H{o}s-Turan inequality to…

Let $\{{\bf \mathcal{Z}}_n:n\geq 1\}$ be a sequence of i.i.d. random probability measures. Independently, for each $n\geq 1$, let $(X_{n1},\ldots, X_{nn})$ be a random vector of positive random variables that add up to one. This paper…

We provide an explicit $O\left(\log^2{T}\right)$-term of the celebrated Atkinson's formula for the error term $E(T)$ of the second power moment of the Riemann zeta-function on the critical line. As an application, we obtain an explicit…

Let $V$ be a locally bounded measurable function such that $e^{-V}$ is bounded and belongs to $L^1(dx)$, and let $\mu_V(dx):=C_V e^{-V(x)} dx$ be a probability measure. We present the criterion for the weighted Poincar\'{e} inequality of…

We compute the average of a product of two shifted squares of the Riemann zeta on the critical line with shifts up to size $T^{3/2-\varepsilon}$. We give an explicit expression for such an average and derive an approximate spectral…

Let $k\in\mathbb{N}$. Wigert's divisor function $d^{\left(\frac{1}{k}\right)}(j)$ counts the number of representations of $j$ of the form $m^k+mn$ with $m\geq1 , n\geq0$. Let $\mathcal{F}_k(s)$ denote the Dirichlet series of…

We give a relatively simple proof that \[ \int _0^1\left |\sum _{n\leq x}d(n)e(n\alpha )\right |d\alpha \asymp \sqrt x.\]

In 1956, Tong established an asymptotic formula for the mean square of the error term in the summatory function of the Piltz divisor function $d_3(n).$ The aim of this paper is to generalize Tong's method to a class of Dirichlet series that…

We give asymptotics for shifted convolutions of the form $$\sum_{n < X} \frac{\sigma_{2u}(n,\chi)\sigma_{2v}(n+k,\psi)}{n^{u+v}}$$ for nonzero complex numbers $u,v$ and nontrivial Dirichlet characters $\chi,\psi$. We use the technique of…

In this work, we derive sharp non-asymptotic deviation bounds for weighted sums of Dirichlet random variables. These bounds are based on a novel integral representation of the density of a weighted Dirichlet sum. This representation allows…

The main goal in this paper is to propose a new method for deriving oracle inequalities related to the exponential weighting method. For the sake of simplicity we focus on recovering an unknown vector from noisy data with the help of a…
