For a fixed polynomial $\Delta$, we study the number of polynomials $f$ of degree $n$ over $\mathbb F_q$ such that $f$ and $f+\Delta$ are both irreducible, an $\mathbb F_q[T]$-analogue of the twin primes problem. In the large-$q$ limit, we…

This note is purely expository. In the course of the Kolmogorov-Arnold solution of Hilbert's 13th problem on superpositions there appeared the notion of basic embedding. A subset K of R^2 is basic if for each continuous function f:K->R…

Usually, the dynamics of linear time-invariant systems described by an integral operator of convolution type, which is defined in the Hilbert space of Lebesgue square integrable functions on the whole line. Such a description leads to…

For every Scott set F and every nonrecursive set X in F, there is a Y in F such that X and Y are Turing incomparable.

For $n\ge 1$ and $\alpha\in (-1,1)$, let $H^{\alpha,2}$ be the space of harmonic functions $u$ on the upper half space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}_+$ satisfying $$\displaystyle\sup_{(x_0,r)\in \mathbb…

We consider an aspect of the open problem: Does every square-integrable function on SU(2) have an almost everywhere convergent Fourier series? Let 0 < alpha < 1. We show that to each countable set E in SU(2) there corresponds an…

Function (linear) spaces on which an arbitrary function operates (i.e. the space is stable w.r.t. the pointwise unary operation defined by the function) were investigated, for continuous real or complex operations, by deLeeuw-Katznelson,…

We consider measurable functions $f$ on $\mathbb{R}$ that tile simultaneously by two arithmetic progressions $\alpha \mathbb{Z}$ and $\beta \mathbb{Z}$ at respective tiling levels $p$ and $q$. We are interested in two main questions: what…

The main purpose of this work is to provide the general solutions of a class of linear functional equations. Let $n\geq 2$ be an arbitrarily fixed integer, let further $X$ and $Y$ be linear spaces over the field $\mathbb{K}$ and let…

Symmetry problems in harmonic analysis are formulated and solved. One of these problems is equivalent to the refined Schiffer's conjecture which was recently proved by the author. Let $k=const>0$ be fixed, $S^2$ be the unit sphere in…

A subset $A$ of a vector space $X$ is called $\alpha$-lineable whenever $A$ contains, except for the null vector, a subspace of dimension $\alpha$. If $X$ has a topology, then $A$ is $\alpha$-spaceable if such subspace can be chosen to be…

Consider the algebra Q<<x_1,x_2,...>> of formal power series in countably many noncommuting variables over the rationals. The subalgebra Pi(x_1,x_2,...) of symmetric functions in noncommuting variables consists of all elements invariant…

In this paper we show that for every $2\leq n\in \mathbb{N}$, the statement "there is an $n$-entangled set, but there are no $n+1$-entangled sets" is consistent. We also prove some theorems which improve our understanding of entangled sets…

Double descent is a method to construct automorphic representations of classical groups. For given A-parameter $\psi$ with certain good properties, double descent constructs a space of functions orthogonal to any cuspidal representation…

Let $\phi$ be a function that maps any non-empty subset $A$ of $\mathbb{R}^2$ to a non-empty subset $\phi(A)$ of $\mathbb{R}^2$. A $\phi$-cover of a set $T=\{T_1, T_2, \dots, T_m\}$ of pairwise non-crossing trees in the plane is a set of…

This paper proves that in Size Theory the comparison of multidimensional size functions can be reduced to the 1-dimensional case by a suitable change of variables. Indeed, we show that a foliation in half-planes can be given, such that the…

Looking at some monoids and (semi)rings (natural numbers, integers and p-adic integers), and more generally, residually finite algebras (in a strong sense), we prove the equivalence of two ways for a function on such an algebra to behave…

It is shown that $2\beta_1(\G)\leq h(\G)$ for any countable group $\G$, where $\beta_1(\G)$ is the first $\ell^2$-Betti number and $h(\G)$ the uniform isoperimetric constant. In particular, a countable group with non-vanishing first…

Let $[a,b]\subset\mathbb{R}$ be a non empty and non singleton closed interval and $P=\{a=x_0<\cdots<x_n=b\}$ is a partition of it. Then $f:I\to\mathbb{R}$ is said to be a function of $r$-bounded variation, if the expression…

The pull-back, push-forward and multiplication of smooth functions can be extended to distributions if their wave front set satisfies some conditions. Thus, it is natural to investigate the topological properties of these operations between…
