A local two-dimensional resolution of singularities theorem and arguments based on the Van der Corput lemma are used to give new estimates for the decay rate of the Fourier transform of a locally defined smooth hypersurface measure in R^3,…

In earlier papers [3,4,5,6] Gursey et al. showed development of a bilocal baryon-meson field from two quark-antiquark fields. The Hamiltonian in the case of vanishing quark masses was shown to have a very good agreement with experiments…

The results in this paper are of two types. On one hand, we construct sets of large Fourier dimension that avoid nontrivial solutions of certain classes of linear equations. In particular, given any finite collection of…

We establish an exponential error term for the renewal theorem in the context of products of random matrices, which is surprising compared with classical abelian cases. A key tool is the Fourier decay of the Furstenberg measures on the…

If a function $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ can be represented as the sum of $n$ periodic functions as $f=f_1+\dots+f_n$ with $f(x+\alpha_j)=f(x)$ ($j=1,\dots,n$), then it also satisfies a corresponding $n$-order difference equation…

Arithmetic progressions of length $3$ may be found in compact subsets of the reals that satisfy certain Fourier -- as well as Hausdorff -- dimensional requirements. It has been shown that a very similar result holds in the integers under…

The relationship between Salem numbers and short geodesics has been fruitful in quantitative studies of arithmetic hyperbolic orbifolds, particularly in dimensions 2 and 3. In this article, we push these connections even further. The…

We exhibit the first explicit examples of Salem sets in $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of every dimension $0 < \alpha < 1$ by showing that certain sets of well-approximable $p$-adic numbers are Salem sets. We construct measures supported on these sets that…

A classical result of Kaufman states that, for each $\tau>1,$ the set of well approximable numbers \[ E(\tau)=\{x\in\mathbb{R}: \|qx\| < |q|^{-\tau} \text{ for infinitely many integers q}\} \] is a Salem set with Hausdorff dimension…

Let $E \subseteq R^n$ be a closed set of Hausdorff dimension $\alpha$. For $m \geq n$, let $\{B_1,\ldots,B_k\}$ be $n \times (m-n)$ matrices. We prove that if the system of matrices $B_j$ is non-degenerate in a suitable sense, $\alpha$ is…

Given a subset of the integers of zero density, we define the weaker notion of fractional density of such a set. It is shown how this notion corresponds to that of the Hausdorff dimension of a compact subset of the reals. We then show that…

We shall study three subjects of the Jacobi-Perron Algorithm of dimension 2. First, we study the "ideal convergence". About the approximations (p_n/r_n, q_n/r_n) to (A, B) (where A and B are positive real numbers, r_n, p_n and q_n are…

These notes explore three amazing formulas proved by Abel in his 1826 Paris memoir on what we now call Abelian integrals. We discuss the first two formulas from the point of view of symbolic computation and explain their connection to…

The Basel problem, solved by Leonhard Euler in 1734, asks to resolve $\zeta(2)$, the sum of the reciprocals of the squares of the natural numbers, i.e. the sum of the infinite series: \begin{equation}…

For the multiple Fourier series of the periodization of some radial functions on $\mathbb{R}^d$, we investigate the behavior of the spherical partial sum. We show the Gibbs-Wilbraham phenomenon, the Pinsky phenomenon and the third…

The set of Salem numbers is proved to be bounded from below by $\theta_{31}^{-1}= 1.08544\ldots$ where $\theta_{n}$, $ n \geq 2$, is the unique root in $(0,1)$ of the trinomial $-1+x+x^n$. Lehmer's number $1.176280\ldots$ belongs to the…

In his deep and prolific investigations of heat diffusion, Lam\'e was led to the investigation of the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Laplace operator in an equilateral triangle. In particular he derived explicit results for the…

Leonhard Euler likely developed his summation formula in 1732, and soon used it to estimate the sum of the reciprocal squares to 14 digits --- a value mathematicians had been competing to determine since Leibniz's astonishing discovery that…
