For $ E\subset \mathbb{F}_q^d$, let $\Delta(E)$ denote the distance set determined by pairs of points in $E$. By using additive energies of sets on a paraboloid, Koh, Pham, Shen, and Vinh (2020) proved that if $E,F\subset \mathbb{F}_q^d $…
Erd\H{o}s, S\'ark\"ozy, and S\'os studied the asymptotics of the maximum size of a subset of $\{1,2,\ldots, N\}$ such that it does not contain $k$ distinct elements whose product is a perfect square. More generally, Verstra\"ete proposed a…
We establish an infinitesimal variant of Guo-Jacquet trace formula for the case of a central simple algebra over a number field $F$ containing a quadratic field extension $E/F$. It is an equality between a sum of geometric distributions on…
We revisit the effective Erdos-Wintner theorem for Zeckendorf expansions. Drmota and the author obtained a uniform Kolmogorov bound whose error involves $T\sum_{j>L-2h}|f(F_j)|$, which assumes absolute convergence of the linear tail $\sum_j…
In an earlier work, the authors have determined all possible weights $n$ for which there exists a vanishing sum $\zeta_1+\cdots +\zeta_n=0$ of $m$th roots of unity $\zeta_i$ in characteristic 0. In this paper, the same problem is studied in…
Let $\|\cdot\|$ denote the minimum distance to an integer. For $0<\gamma< 1$, $\theta>0$ and $(\alpha, \beta) \in \mathbb{R} \setminus \{0\} \times \mathbb{R}$ we study when \begin{equation*} \|\alpha p^{\gamma}+\beta \|<p^{-\theta},…
For functions defined via Dirichlet/generalized Dirichlet series in some half planes of the complex plane, we give a new simple elementary approach to obtain an Approximate Functional Equation(AFE for short) for the product of functions…
The main result of this paper is that for any $1/2 \leq s < 2 - \sqrt{2} \approx 0.5858$, there is a number $\sigma = \sigma(s) < s$ with the following property. Let $\delta > 0$ be small, assume that $A \subset [0,1]$ is a…
We generalize the classical Tanaka result on the finiteness of symmetry algebra for non-degenerate pseudo-product structures to the case when the completely-integrable distributions defining the pseudo-product structure are no longer…
We give a short, self-contained proof of two key results from a paper of four of the authors. The first is a kind of weighted discrete Pr\'ekopa-Leindler inequality. This is then applied to show that if $A, B \subseteq \mathbb{Z}^d$ are…
We discuss corrections to the Casimir effect at finite temperature and effective field theory. Recently, it has been shown that effective field theories can reproduce radiative corrections to the Casimir energy calculated in full QED. We…
We show explicit estimates on the number of $q$--rational points of an $F_q$--definable affine absolutely irreducible variety of the algebraic closure of the finite field $F_q$ of $q$ elements. Our estimates for a hypersurface significantly…
It was proved that whenever N is partitioned into finitely many cells, one cell must contain arbitrary length geo-arithmetic progressions. It was also proved that arithmetic and geometric progressions can be nicely intertwined in one cell…
The polynomial method has been used recently to obtain many striking results in combinatorial geometry. In this paper, we use affine Hilbert functions to obtain an estimation theorem in finite field geometry. The most natural way to state…
We estimate the number of incidences in a configuration of $m$ lines and $n$ points in dimension 3. The main term is $mn^{1/3}$ if we work over the real or complex numbers but $mn^{2/5}$ over finite fields. Both of these are optimal, aside…
This paper introduces an archimedean, locally Cantor multi-field $\mathcal{O}_{\theta}$ which gives an analog of the $p$-adic number field at a place at infinity of a real quadratic extension $K$ of $\mathbb{Q}$. This analog is defined…
Let $A$ be a simple abelian variety of dimension $g$ over the field $\mathbb{F}_q$. The paper provides improvements on the Weil estimates for the size of $A(\mathbb{F}_q)$. For an arbitrary value of $q$ we prove $(\lfloor(\sqrt{q}-1)^2…
The field of real numbers being extended as a larger commutative field, we investigate the possibility of defining a scalar product for the distributions of finite discrete support. Then we focus on the most simple possible extension (which…
Paul Erd\H{o}s posed a problem on the asymptotic estimation of decomposing 1 into a sum of infinitely many unit fractions in \cite{Erd80}. We point out that this problem can be solved in the same way as the finite case, as shown in…
This note improves the best known exponent 1/12 in the prime field sum-product inequality (for small sets) to 1/11, modulo a logarithmic factor.
