We study the Dirichlet problem for the complex Monge-Amp\`ere operator with bounded, discontinuous boundary data. If the set of discontinuities is b-pluripolar and the domain is B-regular, we are able to prove existence, uniqueness and some…
Let $f\colon\mathbb{N}\rightarrow\mathbb{C}$ be an arithmetic function and consider the Beatty set $\mathcal{B}(\alpha) = \lbrace\, \lfloor n\alpha \rfloor : n\in\mathbb{N} \,\rbrace$ associated to a real number $\alpha$, where…
We study multiplicative functions $f$ satisfying $|f(n)|\le 1$ for all $n$, the associated Dirichlet series $F(s):=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} f(n) n^{-s}$, and the summatory function $S_f(x):=\sum_{n\le x} f(n)$. Up to a possible trivial…
Let $\BS_1,...,\BS_n$ be independent identically distributed random variables each having the standardized Bernoulli distribution with parameter $p\in(0,1)$. Let $m_*(p):=(1+p+2p^2)/(2\sqrt{p-p^2}+4p^2)$ if $0<p\le 1/2$ and $m_*(p):=1$ if…
Given a truncated perturbation expansion of a physical quantity, one can, under certain circumstances, obtain lower or upper bounds (or both) to the sum of the full perturbation series by using the Borel transform and a variational…
We use an interpolative technique from \cite{abps} to introduce the notion of multiple $N$-separately summing operators. Our approach extends and unifies some recent results; for instance we recover the best known estimates of the…
We establish explicit, universal, and distribution-free bounds for the $n$-th cumulant, $\kappa_n(X)$, of a scalar random variable, controlled solely by an $n$-th order absolute moment functional $M_n(X)$. The bounds take the form…
We derive explicit upper bounds for various functions counting primes in arithmetic progressions. By way of example, if $q$ and $a$ are integers with $\gcd(a,q)=1$ and $3 \leq q \leq 10^5$, and $\theta(x;q,a)$ denotes the sum of the…
We suggest an upper bound on binomial coefficients that holds over the entire parameter range and whose form repeats the form of the de Moivre-Laplace approximation of the symmetric binomial distribution. Using the bound, we estimate the…
In this paper we propose some approaches for finding of pointwise estimates of a solution of the Dirichlet boundary value problem $-\Delta u \pm |u|^{q-1} u = 0 $, $|u|=k$ when $|x|=d<1$ and $|u|=0$ when $|x|=1$ where $x\in \Omega = \{x|…
The Mertens' first theorem gives us the following asymptotic formula \begin{equation*} \sum_{\substack{p\leq x\\ p~prime}}\frac{lnp}{p}=lnx+O(1), \end{equation*} and the Mertens' second theorem indicates that there exists a constant…
We report the finding of the new upper bound on the lowest positive integer $x$ for which the Mertens conjecture \begin{equation*} \left| \sum_{1 \leq n \leq x} \mu(n) \right| < \sqrt{x} \end{equation*} fails to hold: $x < \exp(1.017 \times…
We present quantitative versions of Bohr's theorem on general Dirichlet series $D=\sum a_{n} e^{-\lambda_{n}s}$ assuming different assumptions on the frequency $\lambda:=(\lambda_{n})$, including the conditions introduced by Bohr and…
We study weak quasi-plurisubharmonic solutions to the Dirichlet problem for the complex Monge-Am\`ere equation on a general Hermitian manifold with non-empty boundary. We prove optimal subsolution theorems: for bounded and H\"older…
A common problem in analytic number theory is to bound the sum of an arithmetic function over a set of integers. Nair and Tenenbaum found a very general bound that applies to short sums of a multivariable arithmetic function over polynomial…
In this paper an analytic expression is given for the bounds of the distribution function of the sum of dependent normally distributed random variables. Using the theory of copulas and the important Frechet bounds the dependence structure…
We study the boundary regularity of solutions to the porous medium equation $u_t = \Delta u^m$ in the degenerate range $m>1$. In particular, we show that in cylinders the Dirichlet problem with positive continuous boundary data on the…
In recent years some near-optimal estimates have been established for certain sum-product type estimates. This paper gives some first extremal results which provide information about when these bounds may or may not be tight. The main tool…
Given an arithmetic function $g(n)$ write $M_g(x) := \sum_{n \leq x} g(n)$. We extend and strengthen the results of a fundamental paper of Hal\'{a}sz in several ways by proving upper bounds for the ratio of $\frac{|M_g(x)|}{M_{|g|}(x)}$,…
We obtain nonasymptotic bounds on the spectral norm of random matrices with independent entries that improve significantly on earlier results. If $X$ is the $n\times n$ symmetric matrix with $X_{ij}\sim N(0,b_{ij}^2)$, we show that…
