We improve the quantitative estimate for Roth's theorem on three-term arithmetic progressions, showing that if $A\subset\{1,\ldots,N\}$ contains no non-trivial three-term arithmetic progressions then $\lvert A\rvert\ll N(\log\log N)^4/\log…

Let $\alpha \in (0,1)$ and irrational. We investigate the asymptotic behaviour of sequences of certain trigonometric products (Sudler products) $(P_N(\alpha))_{N\in\mathbb{N}}$ with $$P_N(\alpha) =\prod_{r=1}^N|2\sin(\pi r \alpha)|.$$ More…

Let $\textbf{A}$ be a symmetric convex quadratic form on $\mathbb{R}^{Nn}$ and $\Omega\Subset \mathbb{R}^n$ a bounded convex domain. We consider the problem of existence of solutions $u: \Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n \longrightarrow…

We study one-loop corrections to the Chern-Simons coefficient $\kappa$ in abelian self-dual Chern-Simons Higgs systems and their $N=2$ and $N=3$ supersymmetric generalizations in both symmetric and asymmetric phases. One-loop corrections to…

In this paper we consider error sums of the form \[\sum_{m=0}^{\infty} \varepsilon_m\Big( \,b_m\alpha - \frac{a_m}{c_m}\,\Big) \,,\] where $\alpha$ is a real number, $a_m$, $b_m$, $c_m$ are integers, and $\varepsilon_m=1$ or $\varepsilon_m…

Inequalities for exponential sums are studied. Our results improve an old result of G. Halasz and a recent result of G. Kos. We prove several other essentially sharp related results in this paper.

For absolutely convergent series we state explicitly a one-sided summation estimate that can be viewed as the discrete analogue of the change of variable formula on the half line. This estimate is implicit in Pascal Lef\`evre's recent…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of the sequence of sine products $P_n(\alpha) = \prod_{r=1}^n |2\sin \pi r \alpha|$ for real quadratic irrationals $\alpha$. In particular, we study the subsequence $Q_n(\alpha)=\prod_{r=1}^{q_n} |2\sin \pi…

We study the distribution of normalized spacings between the fractional parts of an^2, n=1,2,.... We conjecture that if a is "badly approximable" by rationals, then the sequence of fractional parts has Poisson spacings, and give a number of…

We obtain an improvement of the Beckner's inequality $\| f\|^{2}_{2} -\|f\|^{2}_{p} \leq (2-p) \| \nabla f\|_{2}^{2}$ valid for $p \in [1,2]$ and the Gaussian measure. Our improvement is essential for the intermediate case $p \in (1,2)$,…

We establish asymptotic formulae for various correlations involving general divisor functions $d_k(n)$ and partial divisor functions $d_l(n,A)=\sum_{q|n:q\leq n^A}d_{l-1}(q)$, where $A\in[0,1]$ is a parameter and $k,l\in\mathbb{N}$ are…

In this work, we consider weighted anisotropic Hardy inequalities and trace Hardy inequalities involving a general Finsler metric. We follow a unifying approach, by establishing first a sharp interpolation between them, extending the…

In this article, we establish an improvement of the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality. Let $x, y \in \mathcal{H},$ and let $f: (0,1) \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^+$ be a well-defined function, where $\mathbb{R}^+$ denote the set of all positive real…

We develop a general method for lower bounding the variance of sequences in arithmetic progressions mod $q$, summed over all $q \leq Q$, building on previous work of Liu, Perelli, Hooley, and others. The proofs lower bound the variance by…

We provide a sufficient geometric condition for $\mathbb{R}^n$ to be countably $(\mu,m)$ rectifiable of class $\mathscr{C}^{1,\alpha}$ (using the terminology of Federer), where $\mu$ is a Radon measure having positive lower density and…

We prove a quantitative version of a sharp integral inequality by Hang, Wang, and Yan for both the Poisson operator and its adjoint. Our result has the strongest possible norm and the optimal stability exponent. This stability exponent is…

For a given positive integer $m$, let $A=\set{0,1,...,m}$ and $q \in (m,m+1)$. A sequence $(c_i)=c_1c_2 ...$ consisting of elements in $A$ is called an expansion of $x$ if $\sum_{i=1}^{\infty} c_i q^{-i}=x$. It is known that almost every…

For a fixed $\alpha$, each real number $x \in (0,1)$ can be represented by many different generalised $\alpha$-L\"uroth expansions. Each such expansion produces for the number $x$ a sequence of rational approximations $(\frac{p_n}{q_n})_{n…

We establish $C^{2,\alpha}$ estimates for PDE of the form convex $+$ a sum of weakly concave functions of the Hessian, thus generalising a recent result of Collins which is in turn inspired by a theorem of Caffarelli and Yuan.…
