We prove a sharp bound for the average value of the triple product of modular functions for the Hecke subgroup \Gamma_0(N). Our result is an extension of the main result in {Bernstein&Reznikov-2004} to a fixed cuspidal representation of the…

Let $\mathcal{S}$ denote the class of functions analytic and univalent (i.e. one-to-one) in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}=\{z\in\mathbb{C}:\, |z|<1\}$ normalized by $f(0)=0=f'(0)-1$. The logarithmic coefficients $\gamma_n$ of $f\in\mathcal{S}$…

By defining $$I_n:=\int_{0}^{1}\int_{0}^{1} \frac{(x(1-x)y(1-y))^n}{(1-xy)(-\log xy)}\ dx dy$$ Sondow (see [2]) proved that $$I_n=\binom{2n}{n} \gamma+L_n-A_n$$ We prove asymptotic formula for $L_n$ and $A_n$ as $n\to\infty$, $$…

For a non-cyclic finite group $G$, let $\gamma(G)$ denote the smallest number of conjugacy classes of proper subgroups of $G$ needed to cover $G$. Bubboloni, Praeger and Spiga, motivated by questions in number theory, have recently…

Let $\Z_m$ be the group of residue classes modulo $m$. Let $s(m,n)$ and $c(m,n)$ denote the total number of subgroups of the group $\Z_m \times \Z_n$ and the number of its cyclic subgroups, respectively, where $m$ and $n$ are arbitrary…

Let $\sigma(n)$ denotes the sum of divisors function of a positive integer $n$. Robin proved that the Riemann hypothesis is true if and only if the inequality $\sigma(n) < e^{\gamma}n \log \log n$ holds for every positive integer $n \geq…

We address two questions of Simon Thomas. First, we show that for any n>2 one can find a four generated free subgroup of SLn(Z) which is profinitely dense. More generally, we show that an arithmetic group \Gamma which admits the congruence…

We specify sufficient conditions for the square modulus of the local parameters of a family of GL(n) cusp forms to be bounded on average. These conditions are global in nature and are at present satisfied for n less than or equal to 4. As…

The notion of formal Siegel modular forms for an arithmetic subgroup $\Gamma$ of the symplectic group of genus $n$ is a generalization of symmetric formal Fourier-Jacobi series. Assuming an upper bound on the affine covering number of the…

We continue and complete our previous paper `Lifts of projective congruence groups' [2] concerning the question of whether there exist noncongruence subgroups of $\SL_2(\Z)$ that are projectively equivalent to one of the groups…

We characterize sequences of positive integers (c 1 , c 2 , ..., cn) for which the (2 x 2)-matrix c 1 --1 1 0 $\times$ $\times$ $\times$ cn --1 1 0 belongs to the principal congruence subgroup of level 2 in SL(2, Z). The answer is given in…

We prove Zimmer's conjecture for co-compact lattices in ${\rm SL}(n, \mathbb C)$: for any co-compact lattice in ${\rm SL}(n, \mathbb C)$, $n \geq 3$, any $\Gamma$-action on a compact manifold $M$ with dimension: (I) less than $2n-2$ if $n…

If $G$ is a finite Abelian group, define $s_{k}(G)$ to be the minimal $m$ such that a sequence of $m$ elements in $G$ always contains a $k$-element subsequence which sums to zero. Recently Bitz et al. proved that if $n = exp(G)$, then…

Let $\Sym{n}$ denote the set of all permutations on $n$ labels. Let $c:[0, 1]^2\to [0, \infty)$ be a twice continuously differentiable function. A subfamily of the Mallows model is the Gibbs probability measures on $\Sym{n}$ such that…

We use a coin flipping model for the random partition and Chebyshev's inequality to prove the lower bound $\lim \frac{\log p(n)}{\sqrt{n}} \ge C$ for the number of partitions $p(n)$ of $n$, where $C$ is an explicit constant.

A limit group is the limit of a sequence of conjugates of the diagonal Cartan subgroup, C, of SL(3,R). We show C has 5 possible limit groups, up to conjugacy. Each limit group is determined by an equivalence class of nonstandard triangle,…

Let $\Gamma$ be a cocompact, discrete, and irreducible subgroup of $\mathrm{PSL}_{2}(\mathbb{R})^{n}$. Let $\nu$ be a unitary character of $\Gamma$. For $k\in1\slash 2\,\mathbb{Z}$, let $\sknu$ denote the complex vector space of cusp forms…

In a recent paper, Rose proves that certain generalized sum-of-divisor functions are quasi-modular forms for some congruence subgroup and conjectures that these forms are quasi-modular for $\Gamma_1(n)$. Here, we prove this conjecture.

Verifying a conjecture of Gromov we establish a generalized Margulis Lemma for manifolds with lower Ricci curvature bound. Among the various applications are finiteness results for fundamental groups of compact $n$-manifolds with upper…
