We use the H\"{o}lder inequality for mixed exponents to prove some optimal variants of the generalized Hardy--Littlewood inequality for $m$-linear forms on $\ell _{p}$ spaces with mixed exponents. Our results extend recent results of Araujo…

The second Hardy-Littlewood conjecture asserts that the prime counting function $\pi(x)$ satisfies the subadditive inequality \begin{align*} \pi(x+y)\leqslant \pi(x)+\pi (y) \end{align*} for all integers $x,y\geqslant 2$. By linking the…

We study higher uniformity properties of the von Mangoldt function $\Lambda$, the M\"obius function $\mu$, and the divisor functions $d_k$ on short intervals $(x,x+H]$ for almost all $x \in [X, 2X]$. Let $\Lambda^\sharp$ and $d_k^\sharp$ be…

The Hardy--Littlewood inequalities for multilinear forms on sequence spaces state that for all positive integers $m,n\geq2$ and all $m$-linear forms $T:\ell_{p_{1}}^{n}\times\cdots\times\ell_{p_{m}}^{n}\rightarrow\mathbb{K}$…

It is a folklore conjecture that the M\"obius function exhibits cancellation on shifted primes; that is, $\sum_{p\le X}\mu(p+h) \ = \ o(\pi(X))$ as $X\to\infty$ for any fixed shift $h>0$. This appears in print at least since Hildebrand in…

We show that if $\lambda_1,\ldots,\lambda_k$ are algebraic numbers, then $$|A+\lambda_1\cdot A+\dots+\lambda_k\cdot A|\geq H(\lambda_1,\ldots,\lambda_k)|A|-o(|A|)$$ for all finite subsets $A$ of $\mathbb{C}$, where…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of higher order correlations $$ \mathbb{E}_{n \leq X/d} g_1(n+ah_1) \cdots g_k(n+ah_k)$$ as a function of the parameters $a$ and $d$, where $g_1,\dots,g_k$ are bounded multiplicative functions,…

We show that the expected asymptotic for the sums $\sum_{X < n \leq 2X} \Lambda(n) \Lambda(n+h)$, $\sum_{X < n \leq 2X} d_k(n) d_l(n+h)$, and $\sum_{X < n \leq 2X} \Lambda(n) d_k(n+h)$ hold for almost all $h \in [-H,H]$, provided that…

Suppose that $\{a_j\}\in \ell^1$, and suppose that for any sequence $(t_n)$ of integers there exits a constant $C_1>0$ such that $$\sharp\left\{k\in\mathbb{Z}:\sup_{n\geq 1}\left|\sum_{i\in \mathcal{B}_n-t_n}…

Let $f:\mathbb{N}\to \mathbb{D}$ be a multiplicative function. Under the merely necessary assumption that $f$ is non-pretentious (in the sense of Granville and Soundararajan), we show that for any pair of distinct integer shifts $h_1,h_2$…

We obtain new results pertaining to convergence and recurrence of multiple ergodic averages along functions from a Hardy field. Among other things, we confirm some of the conjectures posed by Frantzikinakis in [Fra10; Fra16] and obtain…

Let $p_n$ denote the $n$-th prime number, and let $d_n=p_{n+1}-p_{n}$. Under the Hardy--Littlewood prime-pair conjecture, we prove \begin{align*} \sum_{n\le X}\frac{\log^{\alpha}d_n}{d_n} \sim\begin{cases} \frac{X\log\log\log X}{\log…

Instead of a strong quantitative form of the Hardy-Littlewood prime $k$-tuple conjecture, one can assume an average form of it and still obtains the same distribution result on $\psi(x+h) - \psi(x)$ by Montgomery and Soundararajan [1].

Using recent results concerning the homogenization and the Hardy property of weighted means, we establish sharp Hardy constants for concave and monotone weighted quasideviation means and for a few particular subclasses of this broad family.…

Let $2 \leq y \leq x$ such that $\beta := \frac{\log x}{\log y} \rightarrow \infty$. Let $\omega_y(n)$ denote the number of distinct prime factors $p$ of $n$ such that $p \leq y$, and let $\mu_y(n) := \mu^2(n)(-1)^{\omega_y(n)}$, where…

We study the prime pair counting functions $\pi_{2k}(x),$ and their averages over $2k.$ We show that good results can be achieved with relatively little effort by considering averages. We prove an asymptotic relation for longer averages of…

This paper develops a hybrid likelihood (HL) method based on a compromise between parametric and nonparametric likelihoods. Consider the setting of a parametric model for the distribution of an observation $Y$ with parameter $\theta$.…

Let $x\geq 1$ be a large integer, and let $a_0<a_1<\cdots<a_{k-1}$ be a small fixed integer $k$-tuple, and let $\mu(n)\in\{-1,0,1\}$ be the periodic Mobius function. This note shows that discrete Fourier transform analysis produces a simple…

A known Hardy-Littlewood theorem asserts that if both the function and its conjugate are of bounded variation, then their Fourier series are absolutely convergent. It is proved in the paper that the same result holds true for functions on…

The objective of this paper is to obtain asymptotic results for shifted sums of multiplicative functions of the form $g \ast 1$, where the function $g$ satisfies the Ramanujan conjecture and has conjectured upper bounds on square moments of…
