Given any line in the plane, we strengthen the Littlewood conjecture by two logarithms for almost every point on the line, thereby generalising the fibre result of Beresnevich, Haynes, and Velani. To achieve this, we prove an effective…

Assuming the generalized Lindel\"{o}f hypothesis (GLH), a weak version of the generalized Ramanujan conjecture and a Rankin--Selberg type partial sum estimate, we establish the normality of the sum of coefficients of a general $L$-function…

Let $A$ be a finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field $k$. Assume $A$ is a basic connected and triangular algebra with $n$ pairwise non-isomorphic simple modules. We consider the {\em Coxeter transformation} $\phi_A(T)$…

We solve a Lehmer-type question about the Mahler measure of integer-valued polynomials.

Assuming the generalized Riemann hypothesis, we rediscover and sharpen some of the best known results regarding the distribution of low-lying zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions. This builds upon earlier work of Omar, which relies on the…

Many results in mass partitions are proved by lifting $\mathbb{R}^d$ to a higher-dimensional space and dividing the higher-dimensional space into pieces. We extend such methods to use lifting arguments to polyhedral surfaces. Among other…

We use an observation of Bohr connecting Dirichlet series in the right half plane $\mathbb{C}_+$ to power series on the polydisk to interpret Carlson's theorem about integrals in the mean as a special case of the ergodic theorem by…

The Mahler measure of a monic polynomial $P(x) = a_dx^d + a_{d-1}x^{d-1} + \dots + a_1x + a_0$ is defined as $M(P) := |a_d| \prod_{P(\alpha)=0} \max\{1, |\alpha|\}$, where the product runs over all roots of $P$. Lehmer's problem asks…

We give an upper bound for the zero order of the difference between a Mahler function and an algebraic function. This complements estimates of Nesterenko, Nishioka, and T\"opfer, among others, who considered polynomials evaluated at Mahler…

We describe a numerical technique to compute the equilibrium measure, in logarithmic potential theory, living on the attractor of Iterated Function Systems composed of one-dimensional affine maps. This measure is obtained as the limit of a…

We consider elliptic second order partial differential operators with Lipschitz continuous leading order coefficients on finite cubes and the whole Euclidean space. We prove quantitative sampling and equidistribution theorems for…

In the function field setting with a fixed characteristic, it was proven by the second and third authors that the values $\log \big|L\big(\frac12, \chi_D\big)\big|$ as $D$ varies over monic and square-free polynomials are asymptotically…

The "Mahler volume" is, intuitively speaking, a measure of how "round" a centrally symmetric convex body is. In one direction this intuition is given weight by a result of Santalo, who in the 1940s showed that the Mahler volume is…

Let $\theta$ be a Bernoulli measure which is stationary for a random walk generated by finitely many contracting rational affine dilations of $\mathbb{R}^d$, and let $\mathcal{K} = \mathrm{supp}(\theta)$ be the corresponding attractor. An…

We continue to investigate the relation between the Mahler measure of certain two variable polynomials, the values of the Bloch--Wigner dilogarithm $D(z)$ and the values $\zeta_F(2)$ of zeta functions of number fields. Specifically, we…

We count algebraic numbers of fixed degree $d$ and fixed (absolute multiplicative Weil) height $\mathcal{H}$ with precisely $k$ conjugates that lie inside the open unit disk. We also count the number of values up to $\mathcal{H}$ that the…

We provide a Mahler/Elkies-style lower bound for the average values of dynamical Green's functions on the projective line over an arbitrary valued field, and give some dynamical and arithmetic applications.

We introduce the quaternionic Mahler measure for non-commutative polynomials, extending the classical complex Mahler measure. We establish the existence of quaternionic Mahler measure for slice regular polynomials in one and two variables.…

Let $X = G/\Gamma$, where $G$ is a Lie group and $\Gamma$ is a lattice in $G$, and let $U$ be a subset of $X$ whose complement is compact. We use the exponential mixing results for diagonalizable flows on $X$ to give upper estimates for the…

Conditions for the existence of K\"ahler-Einstein metrics and central K\"ahler metrics [MS] along with examples, both old and new, are given on classes of Lorentzian $4$-manifolds with two distinguished vector fields. The results utilize…
