The Diophantine sums $\sum_{n=1}^N \| n \alpha \|^{-1}$ and $\sum_{n=1}^N n^{-1} \| n \alpha \|^{-1}$ appear in many different areas including the ergodic theory of circle rotations, lattice point counting and random walks, often in…

Let $1/2\leq\beta<1$, $p$ be a generic prime number and $f_\beta$ be a random multiplicative function supported on the squarefree integers such that $(f_\beta(p))_{p}$ is an i.i.d. sequence of random variables with distribution…

Let $G$ be a sofic group, and let $\Sigma = (\sigma_n)_{n\geq 1}$ be a sofic approximation to it. For a probability-preserving $G$-system, a variant of the sofic entropy relative to $\Sigma$ has recently been defined in terms of sequences…

The arithmetic average of the first $n$ primes, $\bar p_n = {1\over n} \sum_{i=1}^n p_i$, exhibits very many interesting and subtle properties. Since the transformation from $p_n \to \bar p_n$ is extremely easy to invert, $p_n = n\bar p_n -…

Let $f(n)$ be an arithmetic function with $f(n) \ll n^\alpha$ for some $\alpha\in[0,1)$ and let $\lfloor .\rfloor $ denote the integer part function. In this paper, we evaluate asymptotically the sums $$\sum_{n_{1}n_{2}\leq x}f \left(…

We consider the sum of the reciprocals of the middle prime factor of an integer, defined according to multiplicity or not. We obtain an asymptotic expansion in the first case and an asymptotic formula involving an implicit parameter in the…

We establish estimates for exact upper bounds of deviations of partial Fourier sums $S_{n-1}(f)$ on classes $W^r_{\beta,1}, r>2, \beta\in\mathbb{R},$ of $2\pi$-periodic functions whose $(r,\beta)$-derivatives in the Weyl--Nagy sense belong…

Let a continuous random process $X$ defined on $[0,1]$ be $(m+\beta)$-smooth, $0\le m, 0<\beta\le 1$, in quadratic mean for all $t>0$ and have an isolated singularity point at $t=0$. In addition, let $X$ be locally like a $m$-fold…

Let $\beta$ be any permutation on $n$ symbols and let $c(k, \beta)$ be the number of permutations that $k$-commute with $\beta$. The cycle type of a permutation $\beta$ is a vector $(c_1, \dots, c_n)$ such that $\beta$ has exactly $c_i$…

We propose modified frequentist definitions for the determination of confidence intervals for the case of Poisson statistics. We require that 1-\beta^{'} \geq \sum_{n=o}^{n_{obs}+k} P(n|\lambda) \geq \alpha^{'}. We show that this definition…

In this paper, we consider the nonasymptotic sequential estimation of means of random variables bounded in between zero and one. We have rigorously demonstrated that, in order to guarantee prescribed relative precision and confidence level,…

We prove that suitable asymptotic formulae in short intervals hold for the problems of representing an integer as a sum of a prime and a square, or a prime square. Such results are obtained both assuming the Riemann Hypothesis and in the…

The problem of integer partitions is addressed using the microcanonical approach which is based on the analogy between this problem in the number theory and the calculation of microstates of a many-boson system. For ordinary…

We give an asymptotic formula for correlations \[ \sum_{n\le x}f_1(P_1(n))f_2(P_2(n))\cdot \dots \cdot f_m(P_m(n))\] where $f\dots,f_m$ are bounded "pretentious" multiplicative functions, under certain natural hypotheses. We then deduce…

Let $F_n$ be the $n$th Fibonacci number. Let $m, n$ be positive integers. Define a sequence $(G(k,n,m))_{k\geq 1}$ by $G(1,n,m) = F^m_n$, and $G(k+1,n,m) = F_{nG(k,n,m)}$ for all $k\geq 1$. We show that $F_n^{k+m-1}\mid G(k,n,m)$ for all…

We obtain an explicit formula for the variance of the number of $k$-peaks in a uniformly random permutation. This is then used to obtain an asymptotic formula for the variance of the length of longest $k$-alternating subsequence in random…

Let $\Delta(x)$ denote the error term in the Dirichlet divisor problem. Our main results are the asymptotic formulas $$ \int_1^X \Delta^3(x){\rm d}x = BX^{7/4} + O_\epsilon(X^{\beta+\epsilon}) \qquad(B > 0) $$ and $$ \int_1^X…
