The following Proposition is a positive answer to a question about cancellations between permutations that arises in a model problem in the many body theory of Fermions. It concerns the mathematically rigorous implementation of the Pauli…
For a nonprincipal character $\chi$ modulo $D$, when $x\ge D^{\frac56+\varepsilon}$, $(l,D) = 1$, we prove a nontrivial estimate of the form $\sum_{n\le x}\Lambda (n)\chi (n-l)\ll x\exp\left(-0.6\sqrt{\ln D}\right)$ for the sum of values of…
We give a general version of cancellation in exponential sums that arise as sums of products of trace functions satisfying a suitable independence condition related to the Goursat-Kolchin-Ribet criterion, in a form that is easily applicable…
For any finite group $G$, Thompson proved that, for each $\chi\in {\rm Irr}(G)$, $\chi(g)$ is a root of unity or zero for more than a third of the elements $g\in G$, and Gallagher proved that, for each larger than average class $g^G$,…
This paper, following (Dymetman:1998), presents an approach to grammar description and processing based on the geometry of cancellation diagrams, a concept which plays a central role in combinatorial group theory (Lyndon-Schuppe:1977). The…
The quadratically divergent scalar mass is subtractively renormalized unlike other divergences which are multiplicatively renormalized. We re-examine some technical aspects of the subtractive renormalization, in particular, the mass…
For a primitive Dirichlet character $\chi$ modulo $q$, we define $M(\chi)=\max_{t } |\sum_{n \leq t} \chi(n)|$. In this paper, we study this quantity for characters of a fixed odd order $g\geq 3$. Our main result provides a further…
We discuss the generalization to global gauge anomalies of the familiar procedure for the cancellation of local gauge anomalies in effective theories of spontaneously broken symmetries. We illustrate this mechanism in a recently proposed…
We give a simple and direct proof that super-consistency implies the cut elimination property in deduction modulo. This proof can be seen as a simplification of the proof that super-consistency implies proof normalization. It also takes…
The perturbative result for the quark-mass conversion factor between the $\overline{\mathrm{MS}}$ and regularization-independent symmetric-momentum subtraction scheme (RI/SMOM) away from the chiral limit, i.e. at non-zero quark masses…
In this article, we study extreme values of quadratic character sums with multiplicative coefficients $\sum_{n \le N}f(n)\chi_d(n)$. For a positive number $N$ within a suitable range, we employ the resonance method to establish a…
In this paper, we sharpen and simplify our earlier results based on Thue's Fundamentaltheorem and use it to obtain effective irrationality measures for certain roots of polynomials of the form $(x-\sqrt{t})^{n}+(x+\sqrt{t})^{n}$, where $n…
In quantum gauge theories, anomaly cancellation severely restricts the allowed patterns of chiral charges. Here we show that, in a phenomenologically motivated framework for light minicharged particles, the anomaly cancellation conditions…
We construct new two dimensional unoriented superstring theories in two dimensions with a chiral closed string spectrum and show that anomalies cancel upon supplying the appropriate chiral open string degrees of freedom imposed by tadpole…
We examine SL(2, Z) anomalies in ten and eight-dimensional supergravities, the induced local counterterms and their realization in string theory. Composite connections play an important role in the cancellation mechanism. At the same time…
Granville and Soundararajan have recently introduced the notion of pretentiousness in the study of multiplicative functions of modulus bounded by 1, essentially the idea that two functions which are similar in a precise sense should exhibit…
Finding cliques in random graphs and the closely related "planted" clique variant, where a clique of size t is planted in a random G(n,1/2) graph, have been the focus of substantial study in algorithm design. Despite much effort, the best…
In this paper, we study the average of shifted sum for general multiplicative functions. As applications, we prove non-trivial upper bounds for weighted averages of shifted convolutions involving $GL(2)$ and $GL(3)$ Fourier coefficients…
We study both Morita cancellative and skew cancellative properties of noncommutative algebras as initiated recently in several papers and explore that which classes of noncommutative algebras are Morita cancellative (respectively, skew…
Extending the work of Bell, Matsuzawa and Satriano, we consider a finite set of polynomials $S$ over a number field $K$ and give a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a $N \in \mathbb{N}_{> 0}$ and a finite set $Z…
