A non-classical Weyl theory is developed for Dirac systems with rectangular matrix potentials. The notion of the Weyl function is introduced and the corresponding direct problem is treated. Furthermore, explicit solutions of the direct and…
We prove a Liouville type theorem for arbitrarily growing positive viscosity supersolutions of fully nonlinear uniformly elliptic equations in halfspaces. Precisely, let $M^-_{\lambda, \Lambda}$ be the Pucci's inf- operator, defined as the…
We utilize the Wilf-Zeilberger (WZ) method to establish congruences related to truncated Ramanujan-type series. By constructing hypergeometric terms $f(k, a, b, \ldots)$ with Gosper-summable differences and selecting appropriate parameters,…
The goal of the present paper is that of defining the so-called Sturm-Liouville hierarchy of evolution equations, firstly by using the zero-curvature formalism, then by using the asymptotic properties of the Weyl $m$-functions for certain…
For the Gegenbauer weight function $w_{\lambda}(t)=(1-t^2)^{\lambda-1/2}$, $\lambda>-1/2$, we denote by $\Vert\cdot\Vert_{w_{\lambda}}$ the associated $L_2$-norm, $$ \Vert…
For an entire function $f(z) = \sum_{k=0}^\infty a_k z^k, a_k>0,$ we show that if $f$ belongs to the Laguerre-P\'olya class, and the quotients $q_k := \frac{a_{k-1}^2}{a_{k-2}a_k}, k=2, 3, \ldots $ satisfy the condition $q_2 \leq q_3,$ then…
Consider lattice paths in Z^2 taking unit steps north (N) and east (E). Fix positive integers r,s and put an equivalence relation on points of Z^2 by letting v,w be equivalent if v - w = m (r,s) for some m in Z. Call a lattice path valid if…
We prove, with a purely analytic technique, a one-side Liouville theorem for a class of Ornstein--Uhlenbeck operators ${\mathcal L_0}$ in $\mathbb{R}^N$, as a consequence of a Liouville theorem at "$t=- \infty$" for the corresponding…
The first nontrivial zeroes of the Riemann $\zeta$ function are $\approx 1/2+\pm14.13472i$. We investigate the question of whether or not any other L-function has a higher lowest zero. To do so we try to quantify the notion that the…
For functions $p(z) = 1 + \sum_{n=1}^\infty p_n z^n$ holomorphic in the unit disk, satisfying $ {\rm Re}\, p(z) > 0$, we generalize two inequalities proved by Livingston in 1969 and 1985, and simplify their proofs. One of our results states…
Let $\tau(n)$ be Ramanujan's tau function, defined by the discriminant modular form \[ \Delta(z) = q\prod_{j=1}^{\infty}(1-q^{j})^{24}\ =\ \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\tau(n) q^n \,,q=e^{2\pi i z} \] (this is the unique holomorphic normalized…
We show that there are four possibilities for the product of all elements in the multiplicative group of a quotient of the ring of integers in a number field, and give precise conditions for each of the possibilities to occur. This…
We investigate Weyl type asymptotics of functional-difference operators associated to mirror curves of special del Pezzo Calabi-Yau threefolds. These operators are $H(\zeta)=U+U^{-1}+V+\zeta V^{-1}$ and $H_{m,n}=U+V+q^{-mn}U^{-m}V^{-n}$,…
We construct a function $u \in W^{1,1}_{\mathrm{loc}} (B(0,1))$ which is a solution to $\Div (A \nabla u)=0$ in the sense of distributions, where $A$ is continuous and $u \not \in W^{1,p}_{\mathrm{loc}} (B(0,1))$ for $p > 1$. We also give a…
In this paper, we prove some supercongruences via the Wilf-Zeilberger method. For instance, for any odd prime $p$ and positive integer $r$ and $\delta\in\{1,2\}$, we have \begin{align*} \sum_{n=0}^{(p^r-1)/\delta}…
We obtain an estimate from below for the remainder in Weyl's law on negatively curved surfaces. In the constant curvature case, such a bound was proved independently by Hejhal and Randol in 1976 using the Selberg zeta function techniques.…
The theory of generalized Weyl algebras is used to study the $2\times 2$ reflection equation algebra $\mathcal{A}=\mathcal{A}_q(\operatorname{M}_2)$ in the case that $q$ is not a root of unity, where the $R$-matrix used to define…
We prove that the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the condition $\int_{2}^x\left(\pi(t)-\text{li}(t)\right)\mathrm{d}t<0$ for all $x>2$. Here, $\pi(t)$ is the prime-counting function and $\text{li}(t)$ is the logarithmic integral. This…
We consider a class of semilinear elliptic system of the form $-\Delta u(x,y)+\nabla W(u(x,y))=0,\quad (x,y)\in\R^{2}$ where $W:\R^{2}\to\R$ is a double well non negative symmetric potential. We show, via variational methods, that if the…
The transmission eigenvalue problem is a system of two second-order elliptic equations of two unknowns equipped with the Cauchy data on the boundary. In this work, we establish the Weyl law for the eigenvalues and the completeness of the…
