It is by now clear that the naive rule for the entropy of a black hole, {entropy} = 1/4 {area of event horizon}, is violated in many interesting cases. Indeed, several authors have recently conjectured that in general the entropy of a dirty…
We consider a partially overdetermined problem for the $p$-Laplace equation in a convex cone $\mathcal{C}$ intersected with the exterior of a smooth bounded domain $\overline{\Omega}$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$($n\geq2$). First, we establish the…
We perform a bivariate Taylor expansion of the axisymmetric Green function in order to determine the exterior potential of a static thin toroidal shell having a circular section, as given by the Laplace equation. This expansion, performed…
Let $\Gamma\subseteq PSL(2,{\bf R})$ be a finite volume Fuchsian group. The hyperbolic circle problem is the estimation of the number of elements of the $\Gamma$-orbit of $z$ in a hyperbolic circle around $w$ of radius $R$, where $z$ and…
Let $\lambda$ denote the Liouville function. We prove that $$\sum_{X \leq x < 2X} \sup_{\alpha \in \mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}} \bigg\lvert\!\sum_{x \leq n < x+H} \lambda(n) e(n\alpha)\bigg\rvert = o(HX)$$ as $X\to \infty$, in the regime $H =…
The error of approximation of the $2\pi$-periodic sawtooth function $(\pi-x)/2$, $0\leq x<2\pi$, by its $n$-th Fourier polynomial is shown to be bounded by arccot$((2n+1)\sin(x/2))$. Related asymptotically tight inequalities with explicit…
The family of the Taylor series f_{\epsilon}(z)= \sum\limits_{0\leq{}n<\infty}e^{-\epsilon n^2}z^n is considered, where the parameter \epsilon, which enumerates the family, runs over ]0,\infty[. The limiting behavior of this family is…
We show that, on the Riemann hypothesis, $\limsup_{X\to\infty}I(X)/X^{2} \leq 0.8603$, where $I(X) = \int_X^{2X} (\psi(x)-x)^2\,dx.$ This proves (and improves on) a claim by Pintz from 1982. We also show unconditionally that…
We introduce a general class $F_0$ of additive functions $f$ such that $f(p) = 1$ and prove a tight bound for exponential sums of the form $\sum_{n \le x} f(n) e(\alpha n)$ where $f \in F_0$ and $e(\theta) = \exp(2\pi i \theta)$. Both…
We prove novel (local) square function/Carleson measure estimates for non-negative solutions to the evolutionary $p$-Laplace equation in the complement of parabolic Ahlfors-David regular sets. In the case of the heat equation, the Laplace…
We provide convergence rates for Krylov subspace solutions to the trust-region and cubic-regularized (nonconvex) quadratic problems. Such solutions may be efficiently computed by the Lanczos method and have long been used in practice. We…
In this paper, positive solutions to the Laplace equation with 1-dimensional circular singularities are investigated. First, we establish $L^p$ integrability estimates for such solutions $u$ near the singularities, in comparison with…
Let $B$ be the set of odd integers that are sums of two coprime squares. We prove that the trigonometric polynomial $S(\alpha;N)=\sum_{b\in B,b\leq N} e(b\alpha)$ satisfies \[ \frac{S(\alpha; N)}{N/\sqrt{\log N}}<<_{A,A'} \frac{1}{\phi(q)}…
This article focuses on Lp-estimates for the square root of elliptic systems of second order in divergence form on a bounded domain. We treat complex bounded measurable coefficients and allow for mixed Dirichlet/Neumann boundary conditions…
We consider suspension semiflows of an angle multiplying map on the circle and study the distributions of periods of their periodic orbits. Under generic conditions on the roof function, we give an asymptotic formula on the number $\pi(T)$…
Hardy showed that $\sum_{n \ioe x}\tau(n)-x(\log x +2\gamma -1)$ is not $o(x^{1/4})$. In this article, we prove that $\sum_{n \ioe x}\tau(n)(1-\frac{x}{n})-xP(\log x)=\frac{1}{4}+O \left( \frac{\log x}{x^{1/4}} \right)$, where $P$ is a…
This paper uses the convolution theorem of the Laplace transform to derive new inverse Laplace transforms for the product of two parabolic cylinder functions in which the arguments may have opposite sign. These transforms are subsequently…
Hybrid inverse problems are based on the interplay of two types of waves, in order to allow for imaging with both high resolution and high contrast. The inversion procedure often consists of two steps: first, internal measurements involving…
Let $\Delta(x)$ denote the error term in the Dirichlet divisor problem, and let $E(T)$ denote the error term in the asymptotic formula for the mean square of $|\zeta(1/2+it)|$. If $E^*(t) := E(t) - 2\pi\Delta^*(t/(2\pi))$ with $\Delta^*(x)…
Let $\Delta(x)$ denote the error term in the Dirichlet divisor problem. Our main results are the asymptotic formulas $$ \int_1^X \Delta^3(x){\rm d}x = BX^{7/4} + O_\epsilon(X^{\beta+\epsilon}) \qquad(B > 0) $$ and $$ \int_1^X…
