We find and prove a factorization formula for certain Macdonald Littlewood-Richardson coefficients $c_{\lambda\mu}^{\nu}(q,t)$. Namely, we consider the case that the Kostka number $K_{\mu, \nu -\lambda}$ is $1$. This settles a particular…
We study the problem of obtaining asymptotic formulas for the sums $\sum_{X < n \leq 2X} d_k(n) d_l(n+h)$ and $\sum_{X < n \leq 2X} \Lambda(n) d_k(n+h)$, where $\Lambda$ is the von Mangoldt function, $d_k$ is the $k^{\operatorname{th}}$…
We extend the Matom\"{a}ki-Radziwi\l\l{} theorem to a large collection of unbounded multiplicative functions that are uniformly bounded, but not necessarily bounded by 1, on the primes. Our result allows us to estimate averages of such a…
Let $T_1, ..., T_l: X \to X$ be commuting measure-preserving transformations on a probability space $(X, \X, \mu)$. We show that the multiple ergodic averages $\frac{1}{N} \sum_{n=0}^{N-1} f_1(T_1^n x) ... f_l(T_l^n x)$ are convergent in…
We prove a conjecture of Okada giving an exact formula for a certain statistic for hook-lengths of partitions: \frac{1}{n!} \sum_{\lambda \vdash n} f_{\lambda}^2 \sum_{u \in \lambda} \prod_{i=1}^{r}(h_u^2 - i^2) = \frac{1}{2(r+1)^2}…
Improving upon a technique of Croot and Hart, we show that for every $h$, there exists an $\epsilon > 0$ such that if $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ is sufficiently large and $|A.A| \le |A|^{1+\epsilon}$, then $|hA| \ge…
A quantitative two weight theorem for the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator is proved improving the known ones. As a consequence a new proof of the main results in [HP] and in [HPR12] is obtained which avoids the use of the sharp…
Let $ k,l \geq 2$ be natural numbers, and let $d_k,d_l$ denote the $k$-fold and $l$-fold divisor functions, respectively. We analyse the asymptotic behavior of the sum $\sum_{x<n\leq x+H_1}d_k(n)d_l(n+h)$. More precisely, let…
The Hardy-Littlewood majorant problem has a positive answer only for expo- nents p which are even integers, while there are counterexamples for all p =2 2N. Montgomery conjectured that even among the idempotent polynomials there must exist…
Newell-Littlewood coefficients $n_{\mu,\nu}^{\lambda}$ are the multiplicities occurring in the decomposition of products of universal characters of the orthogonal and symplectic groups. They may also be expressed, or even defined directly…
Let $\{a_1, . . . , a_n\}$ be a set of positive integers with $a_1 < \dots < a_n$ such that all $2^n$ subset sums are distinct. A famous conjecture by Erd\H{o}s states that $a_n>c\cdot 2^n$ for some constant $c$, while the best result known…
The second Hardy-Littlewood conjecture, that $\pi(x)+\pi(y) \geq \pi(x+y)$ for integers $x$ and $y$ with $\min\{x,y\}\geq 2$, was formulated in 1923. It continues to attract attention to this day, almost 100 years later. In 1975 Udrescu…
For a continuous Hamiltonian $H : (x, p, u) \in T^*\mathbb{R}^n \times \mathbb{R}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$, we consider the asymptotic behavior of associated Hamilton--Jacobi equations with state-constraint $H(x, Du, \lambda u) \leq…
In this paper, among other results, we improve the best known estimates for the constants of the generalized Bohnenblust-Hille inequality. These enhancements are then used to improve the best known constants of the Hardy--Littlewood…
In our joint paper with W. Fulton (math.AG/9804041) we prove a formula for the cohomology class of a quiver variety. This formula involves a new class of generalized Littlewood-Richardson coefficients, all of which surprisingly seem to be…
We consider several old problems involving the number of prime divisors function $\omega(n)$, as well as the related functions $\Omega(n)$ and $\tau(n)$. Firstly, we show that there are infinitely many positive integers $n$ such that…
We study the limiting behavior of multiple ergodic averages involving sequences of integers that satisfy some regularity conditions and have polynomial growth. We show that for "typical" choices of Hardy field functions $a(t)$ with…
In a surprising recent work, Lemke Oliver and Soundararajan noticed how experimental data exhibits erratic distributions for consecutive pairs of primes in arithmetic progressions, and proposed a heuristic model based on the…
Morrey's classical inequality implies the H\"older continuity of a function whose gradient is sufficiently integrable. Another consequence is the Hardy-type inequality $$ \lambda\biggl\|\frac{u}{d_\Omega^{1-n/p}}\biggr\|_{\infty}^p\le…
Let $\mathcal{H}^{*}=\{h_1,h_2,\ldots\}$ be an ordered set of integers. We give sufficient conditions for the existence of increasing sequences of natural numbers $a_j$ and $n_k$ such that $n_k+h_{a_j}$ is a sum of two squares for every…
