Let $\lambda$ denote the Liouville function. Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we prove that $$\int_X^{2X}\Big|\sum_{x\leq n \leq x+h}\lambda(n) \Big|^2 dx \ll Xh(\log X)^6,$$ as $X\rightarrow \infty$, provided $h=h(X)\leq…

Let $X_1,..., X_N\in\R^n$ be independent centered random vectors with log-concave distribution and with the identity as covariance matrix. We show that with overwhelming probability at least $1 - 3 \exp(-c\sqrt{n}\r)$ one has $ \sup_{x\in…

Under the assumption that the distribution of a nonnegative random variable $X$ admits a bounded coupling with its size biased version, we prove simple and strong concentration bounds. In particular the upper tail probability is shown to…

We obtain an asymptotic series $\sum_{j=0}^\infty\frac{I_j}{n^j}$ for the integral $\int_0^1[x^n+(1-x)^n]^{\frac1{n}}dx$ as $n\to\infty$, and compute $I_j$ in terms of alternating (or "colored") multiple zeta value. We also show that $I_j$…
