Let $K$ be a totally real field, and $r\geq 5$ a fixed rational prime. In this paper, we use the modular method as presented in the recent work of Freitas and Siksek to study non-trivial, primitive solutions $(x,y,z) \in \mathcal{O}_K^3$ of…
We use the convolution method for arithmetic functions of several variables to deduce an asymptotic formula for the number of $k$-tuples of positive integers with components which are pairwise non-coprime and $\le x$. More generally, we…
We consider the asymptotic expansion of the sum \[S_p(a;w)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty n^{-w}\e^{-an^p}\] as $a\rightarrow 0$ in $|\arg\,a|<\pi/2$ for arbitrary finite $p>$ and $w>0$. Our attention is concentrated mainly on the case when $p$ and $w$…
We investigate integers whose base $g$ expansion omits a fixed digit and which can be represented as a sum of two prime squares. In the first part of the paper, we apply the Hardy--Littlewood circle method to obtain asymptotic formulas for…
Let $s$, $\ell$ be two integers such that $2\le s\le \ell-1$, $\ell\ge 3$. We prove that a suitable asymptotic formula for the average number of representations of integers $n=\sum_{i=1}^{s} p_{i}^{\ell}$, where $p_i$, $i=1,\dotsc,s$, are…
We study the equidistribution of integers of the form $n= x_1^2 + \cdots + x_d^2$ under the arithmetic constraints given by $(\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z})^d$. The first step in addressing this problem is to construct modular forms whose Fourier…
This work aims at solving the problems with intractable sparsity-inducing norms that are often encountered in various machine learning tasks, such as multi-task learning, subspace clustering, feature selection, robust principal component…
We show that there are $O(B^{3/5-3/1555+\ep})$ triples $(x,y,z)$ of square-full integesr up to $B$ satisfying the equation $x+y=z$ for any fixed $\ep>0$. This is the first improvement over the `easy' exponent $3/5$, given by Browning and…
Let $Q(x,y)$ be a quadratic form with discriminant $D\neq 0$. We obtain non trivial upper bound estimates for the number of solutions of the congruence $Q(x,y)\equiv\lambda \pmod{p}$, where $p$ is a prime and $x,y$ lie in certain intervals…
Schur introduced the problem on the smallest limit point for the arithmetic means of totally positive conjugate algebraic integers. This area was developed further by Siegel, Smyth and others. We consider several generalizations of the…
Let $p$ be a prime number. In the early 2000s, it was proved that the Fermat equations with coefficients \[3x^p + 8y^p + 21z^p =0\quad \text{ and } \quad 3x^p + 4y^p + 5z^p=0 \] do not admit non-trivial solutions for a set of exponents $p$…
We show that both primes and smooth numbers are equidistributed in arithmetic progressions to moduli up to $x^{5/8 - o(1)}$, using triply-well-factorable weights for the primes (we also get improvements for the well-factorable linear sieve…
We show that smooth numbers are equidistributed in arithmetic progressions to moduli of size $x^{66/107-o(1)}$. This overcomes a longstanding barrier of $x^{3/5-o(1)}$ present in previous works of Bombieri-Friedlander-Iwaniec,…
We obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of ways to represent every reduced residue class as a product of a prime and square-free integer. This may be considered as a relaxed version of a conjecture of Erd\"os, Odlyzko, and…
A natural number $n$ is $y$-smooth if the greatest prime factor of $n$ does not exceed $y$. Let $s_{1}$ and $s_{2}$ are $y$-smooth numbers. We consider sums of smooth squares of the binary Titchmarsh divisor problem and give asymptotic…
In this paper, we prove some supercongruences via the Wilf-Zeilberger method. For instance, for any odd prime $p$ and positive integer $r$ and $\delta\in\{1,2\}$, we have \begin{align*} \sum_{n=0}^{(p^r-1)/\delta}…
Schroedinger's equation with the attractive potential V(r) = -Z/(r^q+ b^q)^(1/q), Z > 0, b > 0, q >= 1, is shown, for general values of the parameters Z and b, to be reducible to the confluent Heun equation in the case q=1, and to the…
In this paper, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of integral solutions to a system of diagonal equations. We obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of solutions with variables restricted to smooth numbers as well. We…
Let $p(n)$ denote the partition function. In this paper our main goal is to derive an asymptotic expansion up to order $N$ (for any fixed positive integer $N$) along with estimates for error bounds for the shifted quotient of the partition…
We consider the zero sets $Z_N$ of systems of $m$ random polynomials of degree $N$ in $m$ complex variables, and we give asymptotic formulas for the random variables given by summing a smooth test function over $Z_N$. Our asymptotic…
