This note concerns an extension of the good-$\lambda$ inequality for fractional integrals, due to B. Muckenhoupt and R. Wheeden. The classical result is refined in two aspects. Firstly, general nonlinear potentials are considered; and…

The $q$-analogue of an integer $m$ is given by $[m]_q=(1-q^m)/(1-q)$. Let $a$ be an integer, and let $n$ be a positive odd integer. Via discrete Fourier transforms, we establish the following two identities:…

In this paper, we sharpen and generalize Carlson's double inequality for the arc cosine function.

This note relies mainly on a refined version of the main results of the paper by F. Catrina and D. Costa (J. Differential Equations 2009). We provide very short and self-contained proofs. Our results are sharp and minimizers are obtained in…

For functions $p(z) = 1 + \sum_{n=1}^\infty p_n z^n$ holomorphic in the unit disk, satisfying $ {\rm Re}\, p(z) > 0$, we generalize two inequalities proved by Livingston in 1969 and 1985, and simplify their proofs. One of our results states…

We prove that, if $m,n\geqslant 1$ and $a_1,\ldots,a_m$ are nonnegative integers, then \begin{align*} \frac{[a_1+\cdots+a_m+1]!}{[a_1]!\ldots[a_m]!}\sum^{n-1}_{h=0}q^h\prod_{i=1}^m{h\brack a_i} \equiv 0\pmod{[n]}, \end{align*} where…

An achievement set of a series is a set of all its subsums. We study the properties of achievement sets of conditionally convergent series in finite dimensional spaces. The purpose of the paper is to answer some of the open problems…

Upper bounds for GCD sums of the form [\sum_{k,{\ell}=1}^N\frac{(\gcd(n_k,n_{\ell}))^{2\alpha}}{(n_k n_{\ell})^\alpha}] are proved, where $(n_k)_{1 \leq k \leq N}$ is any sequence of distinct positive integers and $0<\alpha \le 1$; the…

In this paper we develop a general method for improving Jensen-type inequalities for convex and, even more generally, for piecewise convex functions. Our main result relies on the linear interpolation of a convex function. As a consequence,…

For any given positive definite binary quadratic form $Q$ with integer coefficients, we establish two results on Diophantine approximation with integers represented by $Q$. Firstly, we show that for every irrational number $\alpha$, there…

Let $\mu_p$ be the generalized Gaussian distribution on $\mathbb{R}^n$ with density $e^{-\frac{|x|^p}{p}}$ multiplied by a constant depending on $p\ge 1$ and $n$, and $\alpha_p(n)$ be the largest number such that the Brunn-Minkowski type…

There have been a plethora of investigations carried out in studying inequalities for the Fourier coefficients of weakly holomorphic modular forms, for example, on the partition function. Recently, Bringmann, Kane, Rolen, and Tripp studied…

Recently the author established an improvement of the classical Vietoris sine inequality to include sine polynomials with non-monotone coefficients. In this paper two further improvements are presented admitting sine polynomials with…

We prove that the following pointwise inequality holds \begin{equation*} -\Delta u \ge \sqrt\frac{2}{(p+1)-c_n} |x|^{\frac{a}{2}} u^{\frac{p+1}{2}} + \frac{2}{n-4} \frac{|\nabla u|^2}{u} \ \ \text{in}\ \ \mathbb{R}^n \end{equation*} where…

For a complex number $x$, $\Vert x\Vert:=\min\{|x-m|:m\in\mathbb{Z}\}$. Let $k\geq 1$ be an integer, and $K$ be a number field. Let $\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_k$ be algebraic numbers with $|\alpha_i|\geq 1$ and let $d_i$ denotes the degree of…

Our main result is an abstract good-$\lambda$ inequality that allows us to consider three self-improving properties related to oscillation estimates in a very general context. The novelty of our approach is that there is one principle…

The coefficients $A_n(\alpha,\beta,\omega)$ in the Maclaurin expansion $(1+\omega z)^{\alpha}(1-z)^{-\beta}= \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} A_n(\alpha,\beta,\omega)z^n$ are studied, where $\omega,z \in \mathbb{C}$ with $|z| < |\omega|=1$, and…

We derive an asymptotic expansion with effective error bound for $u(n)$, counting the number of unimodal sequences of size $n$. We prove that $u(n)$ satisfies the higher order Tur\'{a}n inequalities for $n\geq33$ and that certain second…
