We construct certain Rajchman measures by using integrability properties of the Fourier and Fourier-Stieltjes transforms. In particular, we state a problem and prove that it is equivalent to the known and still unsolved question posed by R.…
The Salem problem to verify whether Fourier-Stieltjes coefficients of the Minkowski question mark function vanish at infinity is solved recently affirmatively. In this paper by using methods of classical analysis and special functions we…
By using structural and asymptotic properties of the Kontorovich-Lebedev transform associated with Minkowski's question mark function, we give an affirmative answer to the question posed by R. Salem (Trans. Amer. Math. Soc., 53 (3), (1943),…
R. Salem (Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 53 (3) (1943) 427-439) asked whether the Fourier-Stieltjes transform of the Minkowski question mark function ?(x) vanishes at infinity. In this note we present several possible approaches towards the…
In this paper we investigate the Fourier-Stieltjes coefficients of the Minkowski question mark function. In 1943, R. Salem asked whether these coefficients vanish at infinity. We propose the conjecture which implies the affirmative answer…
We construct certain Rajchman measures by using integrability properties of the Fourier and Fourier-Stieltjes transforms. Further we show that Minkowski's question mark function ?(x), which is a singular monotone function, belongs to one of…
Minkowski's question mark function is strictly increasing on $[0, 1]$ and hence defines a Stieltjes measure on $[0, 1]$. A problem originating from Salem in 1943, is to determine whether the Fourier series of this measure decay to zero or…
We study the regularity of convolution powers for measures supported on Salem sets, and prove related results on Fourier restriction and Fourier multipliers. In particular we show that for $\alpha$ of the form ${d}/{n}, n=2,3,\cdots$ there…
For every natural number k we introduce the notion of k-th order convolution of functions on abelian groups. We study the group of convolution preserving automorphisms of function algebras in the limit. It turns out that such groups have…
The Fourier transform plays a central role in many geometric and combinatorial problems cast in vector spaces over finite fields. If a set admits optimal $L^\infty$ bounds on its Fourier transform (that is, it is a Salem set), then it can…
The Bernoulli numbers are fascinating and ubiquitous numbers, they occur in several domains of Mathematics like Number theory (FLT), Group theory, Calculus and even in Physics. Since Bernoulli's work, they are yet studied to understand…
This paper sets the groundwork for the consideration of families of recursively defined polynomials and rational functions capable of describing the Bernoulli numbers. These families of functions arise from various recursive definitions of…
We construct Salem sets in $\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}$ of any dimension (including $1$) which do not contain any arithmetic progressions of length $3$. Moreover, the sets can be taken to be Ahlfors regular if the dimension is less than $1$, and…
This paper is second in a series of three papers; the first of which is "Summation Formulas, from Poisson and Voronoi to the Present" (math.NT/0304187), and the third of which is "Automorphic Distributions, L-functions, and Voronoi…
Euler's solution in 1734 of the Basel problem, which asks for a closed form expression for the sum of the reciprocals of all perfect squares, is one of the most celebrated results of mathematical analysis. In the modern era, numerous proofs…
We construct Salem sets on the real line with endpoint Fourier decay and near-endpoint regularity properties. This complements a result of \L aba and Pramanik, who obtained near-endpoint Fourier decay and endpoint regularity properties. We…
In this paper, we solve the Rankin--Selberg problem. That is, we break the well known Rankin--Selberg's bound on the error term of the second moment of Fourier coefficients of a $\mathrm{GL}(2)$ cusp form (both holomorphic and Maass), which…
In this book we describe an approach through toric geometry to the following problem: "estimate the number (counted with appropriate multiplicity) of isolated solutions of n polynomial equations in n variables over an algebraically closed…
We give a reformulation of Salem's conjecture about the absence of Salem numbers near one in terms of a uniform spectral gap for certain arithmetic hyperbolic surfaces.
We identify a family of numbers for which the Bernoulli convolution is singular. Within this family we find two countable collections of Salem numbers in the interval $(1,2)$, and another Salem number and an algebraic integer that is…
