Let $f$ be a cuspidal eigenform (holomorphic or Maass) on the full modular group $SL(2, \mathbb{Z})$ . Let $\chi$ be a primitive character of modulus $P$. We shall prove the following results: 1. Suppose $P = p^r$, where $p$ is a prime and…

We verify that $\liminf_{q\to\infty} q\cdot |q|_p\cdot ||qx||<\epsilon$ for all real $x$, small primes $p$ and relatively small $\epsilon$. This result supports the famous $p$-adic Littlewood conjecture which states that the above lower…

We show that the Cheeger constant of compact surfaces is bounded by a function of the area. We apply this to isoperimetric profiles of bounded genus non-compact surfaces, to show that if their isoperimetric profile grows faster than $\sqrt…

We study the non-uniqueness sets for solutions to the Klein-Gordon equation in 1 space dimension, for solutions whose Fourier transform is a finite complex measure absolutely continuous with respect to arc length. We show that generally, in…

The Littlewood-Richardson coefficients describe the decomposition of tensor products of irreducible representations of a simple Lie algebra into irreducibles. Assuming the number of factors is large, one gets a measure on the space of…

Inspired by several alternative definitions of continued fraction expansions for elements in $\mathbb Q_p$, we study $p$-adically convergent periodic continued fractions with partial quotients in $\mathbb Z[1/p]$. To this end, following a…

Let $p$ be a prime number and let $k\geq 2$ be an integer. In this article we study the semi-simple reductions modulo $p$ of two-dimensional irreducible crystalline $p$-adic Galois representations with Hodge-Tate weights $0$ and $k-1$ and…

Let $A\subset\left\{ 1,\dots,N\right\} $ be a set of prime numbers containing no non-trivial arithmetic progressions. Suppose that $A$ has relative density $\alpha=|A|/\pi(N)$, where $\pi(N)$ denotes the number of primes in the set $\left\{…

We define a necessary and sufficient condition on a polynomial $h\in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ to guarantee that every set of natural numbers of positive upper density contains a nonzero difference of the form $h(p)$ for some prime $p$. Moreover, we…

We consider the ASEP and the stochastic six vertex model started with step initial data. After a long time, $T$, it is known that the one-point height function fluctuations for these systems are of order $T^{1/3}$. We prove the KPZ…

Given a discrete group $\G$ and an orthogonal action $\gamma: \G \to O(n)$ we study $L_p$ convergence of Fourier integrals which are frequency supported on the semidirect product $\R^n \rtimes_\gamma \G$. Given a unit $u \in \R^n$ and $1 <…

In this paper, we study lower order terms of the $1$-level density of low-lying zeros of quadratic Hecke L-functions in the Gaussian field. Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, our result is valid for even test functions whose…

The Katz-Sarnak Density Conjecture states that the behavior of zeros of a family of $L$-functions near the central point (as the conductors tend to zero) agree with the behavior of eigenvalues near 1 of a classical compact group (as the…

Let $\delta > 1/2$. We prove that if $A$ is a subset of the primes such that the relative density of $A$ in every reduced residue class is at least $\delta$, then almost all even integers can be written as the sum of two primes in $A$. The…

The Littlewood conjecture, proven by Konyagin and McGehee-Pigno-Smith in the 1980s, states that if $A\subset \mathbb{Z}$ is a finite set of integers with $\lvert A\rvert=N$ then $\| \widehat{1_A}\|_1\geq c\log N$ for some absolute constant…

The classical Hausdorff-Young inequality for locally compact abelian groups states that, for $1\le p\le 2$, the $L^p$-norm of a function dominates the $L^q$-norm of its Fourier transform, where $1/p+1/q=1$. By using the theory of…

It is shown that solutions to the anisotropic least gradient problem for boundary data $f \in L^p(\partial\Omega)$ lie in $L^{\frac{Np}{N-1}}(\Omega)$; the exponent is shown to be optimal. Moreover, the solutions are shown to be locally…

Fix a prime $p\geq 11$. We show that there exists a positive integer $m$ such that any subset of $\mathbb{F}_p^n\times\mathbb{F}_p^n$ containing no nontrivial configurations of the form $(x,y),(x,y+z),(x,y+2z),(x+z,y)$ must have density…

Let $Z=(Z_t)_{t\geq0}$ be an additive process with a bounded triplet $(0,0,\Lambda_t)_{t\geq0}$. Suppose that for any Schwartz function $\varphi$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$ whose Fourier transform is in $C_c^{\infty}(B_{c_s} \setminus B_{c_s^{-1}}…

We prove that if A is a subset of the primes, and the lower density of A in the primes is larger than 5/8, then all sufficiently large odd positive integers can be written as the sum of three primes in A. The constant 5/8 in this statement…
