In this paper, we present a refined version of the (classical) Stein inequality for the Fourier transform, elevating it to a new level of accuracy. Furthermore, we establish extended analogues of a more precise version of the Stein…

For a finite abelian group $G$ and a splitting field $K$ of $G$, let $d(G, K)$ denote the largest integer $l \in \N$ for which there is a sequence $S = g_1 \cdot ... \cdot g_l$ over $G$ such that $(X^{g_1} - a_1) \cdot ... \cdot (X^{g_l} -…

We investigate the concept of Pauli pairs and a discrete counterpart to it. In particular, we make substantial progress on the question of when a discrete Pauli pair is automatically a classical Pauli pair. Effectively, if one of the…

In this paper we develop the theory of homogeneous functions between finite abelian groups. Here, a function $f:G\longrightarrow H$ between finite abelian groups is homogeneous of degree $d$ if $f(nx)=n^df(x)$ for all $x\in G$ and all $n$…

We consider a setting where we have a ground set $M$ together with real-valued set functions $f_1, \dots, f_n$, and the goal is to partition $M$ into two sets $S_1,S_2$ such that $|f_i(S_1) - f_i(S_2)|$ is small for every $i$. Many results…

We prove an explicit formula for the Fourier transform of $f(u(t))$, given the Fourier transform of $f(t)$, assuming $f\in L^2(-\infty,\infty)$ and $u$ sufficiently well behaved. We illustrate its usefulness by calculating the Fourier…

In this paper we are concerned with a Gordan-type theorem involving an arbitrary number of inequality functions. We not only state its validity under a weak convexity assumption on the functions, but also show it is an optimal result. We…

We define lacunary Fourier series on a compact connected semisimple Lie group $G$. If $f \in L^1(G)$ has lacunary Fourier series, and vanishes on a non empty open set, then we prove that $f$ vanishes identically. This may be viewed as a…

A famous result of Freiman describes the structure of finite sets A of integers with small doubling property. If |A + A| <= K|A| then A is contained within a multidimensional arithmetic progression of dimension d(K) and size f(K)|A|. Here…

Let $n$ be a positive integer and let $G$ be a group. We denote by $\nu(G)$ a certain extension of the non-abelian tensor square $G \otimes G$ by $G \times G$. Set $T_{\otimes}(G) = \{g \otimes h \mid g,h \in G\}$. We prove that if the size…

Let $H(n) = \prod_{p|n}\frac{p}{p-1}$ where $p$ ranges over the primes which divide $n$. It is well known that if $n$ is a primitive non-deficient number, then $H(n) > 2$. We examine inequalities of the form $H(n)> 2 + f(n)$ for various…

In this paper, we show that if $(U_n)_{n\ge 1}$ is any nondegenerate linearly recurrent sequence of integers whose general term is up to sign not a polynomial in $n$, then the inequality $\phi(|U_n|)\ge |U_{\phi(n)}|$ holds on a set of…

We prove a new sum uncertainty relation in quantum theory which states that the uncertainty in the sum of two or more observables is always less than or equal to the sum of the uncertainties in corresponding observables. This shows that the…

We prove an exact analogue of Ingham's uncertainty principle for the group Fourier transform on the Heisenberg group. This is accomplished by explicitly constructing compactly supported functions on the Heisenberg group whose…

Chebotar\"ev proved that every minor of a discrete Fourier matrix of prime order is nonzero. We prove a generalization of this result that includes analogues for discrete cosine and discrete sine matrices as special cases. We establish…

Given a narrow signal over the real line, there is a limit to the localisation of its Fourier transform. In spaces of prime dimensions, Tao derived a sharp state-independent uncertainty relation which holds for the support sizes of a pure…

We show the existence of an absolute constant $\alpha>0$ such that, for every $k \geq 3$, $G:=\mathop{\mathrm{Sym}}(k)$, and for every $H \leqslant G$ of index at least $3$, one has $|H/[H,H]| \leq |G:H|^{\alpha/ \log \log |G:H|}$. This…

We describe an inequality of finite or infinite sequences of real numbers and their quotients. More precisely, we compare the quotient of H\"older functionals of two sequences of numbers with the sum of their quotients. In the last section…

An inequality, which combines the concept of completely monotone functions with the theory of divided differences, is proposed. It is a straightforward generalization of a result, recently introduced by two of the present authors.

Let $F_{n}$ be the $n$-th Fibonacci number. Put $\varphi=\frac{1+\sqrt5}{2}$. We prove that the following inequalities hold for any real $\alpha$: 1) $\inf_{n \in \mathbb N} ||F_n\alpha||\le\frac{\varphi-1}{\varphi+2}$, 2) $\liminf_{n\to…
