In Dolera, Gabetta and Regazzini [Ann. Appl. Probab. 19 (2009) 186-201] it is proved that the total variation distance between the solution $f(\cdot,t)$ of Kac's equation and the Gaussian density $(0,\sigma^2)$ has an upper bound which goes…
Let $G$ be a connected Lie group. In this paper, we study the density of the images of individual power maps $P_k:G\to G:g\mapsto g^k$. We give criteria for the density of $P_k(G)$ in terms of regular elements, as well as Cartan subgroups.…
It has been conjectured that the real parts of the zeros of a linear combination of two or more $L$-functions are dense in the interval $[1,\sigma^*]$, where $\sigma^*$ is the least upper bound of the real parts of such zeros. In this paper…

Consider the Mills ratio $f(x)=\big(1-\Phi(x)\big)/\phi(x), \, x\ge 0$, where $\phi$ is the density function of the standard Gaussian law and $\Phi$ its cumulative distribution.We introduce a general procedure to approximate $f$ on the…
We study the probability distribution $F(u)$ of the maximum of smooth Gaussian fields defined on compact subsets of $\R^d$ having some geometric regularity. Our main result is a general formula for the density of $F$. Even though this is an…
We define the notion of couple density $(D, \mathbf b)$ where $D$ is a non-empty subset of $\mathbb Z^{m}$ and $ \mathbf b$ a fixed element in $\{0, \cdots, q-2\}^{m};$ We determine a minimum in terms of the density of the couple…
We suggest a simple approach to calculate the local density of states that effectively applies to any structure created by an axially symmetric potential on a continuous graphene sheet such as circular graphene quantum dots or rings.…
This paper provides a mean value theorem for arithmetic functions $f$ defined by $$f(n)=\prod_{d|n}g(d),$$ where $g$ is an arithmetic function taking values in $(0, 1]$ and satisfying some generic conditions. As an application of our main…
We prove an asymptotically tight bound on the extremal density guaranteeing subdivisions of bounded-degree bipartite graphs with a mild separability condition. As corollaries, we answer several questions of Reed and Wood on embedding sparse…
We improve the best known upper bound on the density of a planar measurable set A containing no two points at unit distance to 0.25442. We use a combination of Fourier analytic and linear programming methods to obtain the result. The…
We find explicit upper bounds for the density of marginals of continuous diffusions where we assume that the diffusion coefficient is constant and the drift is solely assumed to be progressively measurable and locally bounded. In one…
We find sufficient conditions on a compactly supported function $g$, $\supp g = [a,b]$ which guarantee that the Gabor system $$\mathcal{G}(g;\alpha,\beta)=\{e^{2\pi i \beta m x}g(x-\alpha n)\}_{m,n\in\mathbb{Z}}$$ is a frame for all $\alpha…
At the present time reliably established that probability density functions of gene expression of microarray experiments possess a number of universal properties. First of all these distributions have power asymptotic and secondly the shape…
Let F be a family of subsets of {1,2,...,n}. The width-degree of an element x in at least one member of F is the width of the family {U in F | x in U}. If F has maximum width-degree at most k, then F is locally k-wide. Bounds on the size of…
We answer several questions of Erd\H{o}s regarding sequences of natural numbers $A$ whose translates $n+A$ intersect with the squarefree numbers in various specified ways. For instance, we show that if every translate only contains finitely…
The classical Crossing Lemma by Ajtai et al.~and Leighton from 1982 gave an important lower bound of $c \frac{m^3}{n^2}$ for the number of crossings in any drawing of a given graph of $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. The original value was $c=…
If $\mathscr A$ is a set of natural numbers of exponential density $\delta$, then the exponential density of all numbers of the form $x^3+a$ with $x\in\mathbb N$ and $a\in\mathscr A$ is at least $\min(1, \frac 13+\frac 56 \delta)$. This is…
We consider a class of interacting particle systems with values in $[0,\8)^{\zd}$, of which the binary contact path process is an example. For $d \ge 3$ and under a certain square integrability condition on the total number of the…
We establish mean convergence for multiple ergodic averages with iterates given by distinct fractional powers of primes and related multiple recurrence results. A consequence of our main result is that every set of integers with positive…
