Let $\mathcal{P}_r$ denote an almost-prime with at most $r$ prime factors, counted according to multiplicity. In this paper, it is proved that for $\alpha\in\mathbb{R}\backslash\mathbb{Q},\,\beta\in\mathbb{R}$ and $0<\theta<10/1561$, there…

We begin the study of list-decodable linear regression using batches. In this setting only an $\alpha \in (0,1]$ fraction of the batches are genuine. Each genuine batch contains $\ge n$ i.i.d. samples from a common unknown distribution and…

We introduce a method for showing that there exist prime numbers which are very close together. The method depends on the level of distribution of primes in arithmetic progressions. Assuming the Elliott-Halberstam conjecture, we prove that…

Let $M_n$ be the minimal position at generation $n$, of a real-valued branching random walk in the boundary case. As $n \to \infty$, $M_n- {3 \over 2} \log n$ is tight (see [1][9][2]). We establish here a law of iterated logarithm for the…

We study the number of linear extensions of a partial order with a given proportion of comparable pairs of elements, and estimate the maximum and minimum possible numbers. We also consider a random interval partial order on $n$ elements,…

Consider two problems about an unknown probability distribution $p$: 1. How many samples from $p$ are required to test if $p$ is supported on $n$ elements or not? Specifically, given samples from $p$, determine whether it is supported on at…

We study the eigenvalue problem for a system of fractional $p-$Laplacians, that is, $$ \begin{cases} (-\Delta_p)^r u = \lambda\dfrac{\alpha}p|u|^{\alpha-2}u|v|^{\beta} &\text{in } \Omega,\vspace{.1cm} (-\Delta_p)^s u =…

Let $\mathbf{P} \subset [H_0,H]$ be a set of primes, where $\log H_0 \geq (\log H)^{2/3 + \epsilon}$. Let $\mathscr{L} = \sum_{p \in \mathbf{P}} 1/p$. Let $N$ be such that $\log H \leq (\log N)^{1/2-\epsilon}$. We show there exists a subset…

We establish an unconditional asymptotic formula describing the horizontal distribution of the zeros of the derivative of the Riemann zeta-function. For $\Re(s)=\sigma$ satisfying $(\log T)^{-1/3+\epsilon} \leq (2\sigma-1) \leq (\log \log…

In this paper the existence of solutions, $(\lambda,u)$, of the problem $$-\Delta u=\lambda u -a(x)|u|^{p-1}u \quad \hbox{in }\Omega, \qquad u=0 \quad \hbox{on}\;\;\partial\Omega,$$ is explored for $0 < p < 1$. When $p>1$, it is known that…

We prove a kind of "almost all symmetry" result for the primes, i.e. we give non-trivial bounds for the "symmetry integral", say $I_{\Lambda}(N,h)$, of the von Mangoldt function $\Lambda(n)$ ($:= \log p$ for prime-powers $n=p^r$, 0…

Continuing previous study of the Beurling zeta function, here we prove two results, generalizing long existing knowledge regarding the classical case of the Riemann zeta function and some of its generalizations. First, we address the…

We consider Bernoulli nonadaptive group testing with $k = \Theta(n^\theta)$ defectives, for $\theta \in (0,1)$. The practical definite defectives (DD) detection algorithm is known to be optimal for $\theta \geq 1/2$. We give a new upper…

We present three equivalent definitions of the fractional $p$-Laplacian $(-\Delta_{\mathbb{H}^{n}})^{s}_{p}$, $0<s<1$, $p>1$, with normalizing constants, on hyperbolic spaces. The explicit values of the constants enable us to study the…

For a prime number $p$ and integer $x$ with $\gcd(x,p)=1$ let $\overline{x}$ denote the multiplicative inverse of $x$ modulo $p.$ In the present paper we are interested in the problem of distribution modulo $p$ of the sequence $$…

We specify the frontier of decidability for fragments of the first-order theory of ordinal multiplication. We give a NEXPTIME lower bound for the complexity of the existential fragment of $\langle \omega^{\omega^\lambda}; \times, \omega,…

We study $L^p$ bounds on spectral projections for the Laplace operator on compact Riemannian manifolds, restricted to small frequency dependent neighborhoods of submanifolds. In particular, if $\lambda$ is a frequency and the size of the…

We obtain a global fractional Calder\'on-Zygmund regularity theory for the fractional Poisson problem. More precisely, for $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$, $N \geq 2$, a bounded domain with boundary $\partial \Omega$ of class $C^2$, $s \in…

We consider the problem of partitioning a line segment into two subsets, so that $n$ finite measures all have the same ratio of values for the subsets. Letting $\alpha\in[0,1]$ denote the desired ratio, this generalises the PPA-complete…

In this paper we present some observations about the well-known Goldbach conjecture. In particular we list and interpret some numerical results which allow us to formulate a relation between prime numbers and even integers. We can also…
