Conductivity of unsaturated porous media to fluids is of theoretical and applied interest to mathematicians, physicists, and chemical, petroleum, civil and agricultural engineers. We explore the expression of unsaturated relative…

We have used the first 2600 nontrivial zeros gamma_l of the Riemann zeta function calculated with 1000 digits accuracy and developed them into the continued fractions. We calculated the geometrical means of the denominators of these…

Relatively little is known about the arithmetic properties of Gamma-function derivatives evaluated at arbitrary points $q\in\mathbb{Q}\setminus\mathbb{Z}_{\leq0}$. In recent work, we showed that the sequence…

We introduce a new method for studying murmurations, based on random matrix theory. With this method, we exhibit murmurations or similar phenomena: assuming ratios conjectures, for elliptic curves ordered by height, quadratic twists of a…

Global existence and boundedness of classical solutions of the chemotaxis--consumption system \begin{align*} n_t &= \Delta n - \nabla \cdot (n \nabla c), \\ 0 &= \Delta c - nc, \end{align*} under no-flux boundary conditions for $n$ and…

Gram's Law describes a pattern that frequently occurs in the distribution of the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function along the critical line. Whenever Gram's Law holds true, it reduces the difficulty of computing the…

In probability theory, there exist discrete and continuous distributions. Generally speaking, we do not have sufficient kinds and properties of discrete ones compared to the continuous ones. In this paper, we treat the Riemann zeta…

We consider linear reaction--diffusion problems with mixed Diriclet-Neumann-Robin conditions. The diffusion matrix, reaction coefficient, and the coefficient in the Robin boundary condition are defined with an uncertainty which allow…

This paper studies zeta functions of the form $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \chi(n) n^{-s}$, with $\chi$ a completely multiplicative function taking only unimodular values. We denote by $\sigma(\chi)$ the infimum of those $\alpha$ such that the…

Let $R(n) = \sum_{a+b=n} \Lambda(a)\Lambda(b)$, where $\Lambda(\cdot)$ is the von Mangoldt function. The function $R(n)$ is often studied in connection with Goldbach's conjecture. On the Riemann hypothesis (RH) it is known that $\sum_{n\leq…

Let $\Gamma\subset\mathbb{Q}^*$ be a finitely generated subgroup and let $p$ be a prime such that the reduction group $\Gamma_p$ is a well defined subgroup of the multiplicative group $\mathbb{F}_p^*$. We prove an asymptotic formula for the…

For parameters $\,c\in(0,1)\,$ and $\,\beta>0$, let $\,\ell_{2}(c,\beta)\,$ be the Hilbert space of real functions defined on $\,\mathbb{N}\,$ (i.e., real sequences), for which $$ \| f \|_{c,\beta}^2 :=…

In this paper we investigate the monotonicity properties related to the ratio of gamma functions, from which some related asymptotics and inequalities are established. Some special cases also confirm the conjectures of C.-P. Chen…

The term moderate deviations is often used in the literature to mean a class of large deviation principles that, in some sense, fills the gap between a convergence in probability of some random variables to a constant and a weak convergence…

We study the distribution of prime numbers under the unlikely assumption that Siegel zeros exist. In particular we prove for \[ \sum_{n \leq X} \Lambda(n) \Lambda(\pm n+h) \] an asymptotic formula which holds uniformly for $h = O(X)$. Such…

In this paper we relate a fundamental parameter of a random graph, its degree sequence, to a simple model of nearly independent binomial random variables. This confirms a conjecture made in 1997. As a result, many interesting functions of…

We study the problem of estimating the mean of a multivariatedistribution based on independent samples. The main result is the proof of existence of an estimator with a non-asymptotic sub-Gaussian performance for all distributions…

In 1995 Magnus posed a conjecture about the asymptotics of the recurrence coefficients of orthogonal polynomials with respect to the weights on [-1,1] of the form $$ (1-x)^\alpha (1+x)^\beta |x_0 - x|^\gamma \times a jump at x_0, $$ with…

In 1993 one of the authors formulated some conjectures on monotonicity of ratios for exponential series sections. They lead to more general conjecture on monotonicity of ratios of Kummer hypergeometric functions and was not proved from…

A landmark theorem in the metric theory of continued fractions begins this way: Select a non-negative real function $f$ defined on the positive integers and a real number $x$, and form the partial sums $s_n$ of $f$ evaluated at the partial…
