Let X be a regular scheme, projective and flat over the integers. Let A be the constant in the conjectured functional equation for the zeta-function of X. We give a conjecture computing A in terms of Euler characteristics of derived…

We generalize a result of Matom\"aki, Radziwi{\l}{\l}, and Tao, by proving an averaged version of a conjecture of Chowla and a conjecture of Elliott regarding correlations of the Liouville function, or more general bounded multiplicative…

We put together the ingredients for an efficient operator calculus based on Krawtchouk polynomials, including Krawtchouk transforms and corresponding convolution structure which provide an inherently discrete alternative to Fourier…

Let $f(n)$ denote a multiplicative function with range $\{-1,0,1\}$, and let $F(x) = \sum_{n\leq x} f(n)$. Then $F(x)/\sqrt{x} = a\sqrt{x} + b + E(x)$, where $a$ and $b$ are constants and $E(x)$ is an error term that either tends to $0$ in…

We show that for a Steinhaus random multiplicative function $f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{D}$ and any polynomial $P(x)\in\mathbb{Z}[x]$ of $\text{deg}\ P\ge 2$ which is not of the form $w(x+c)^{d}$ for some $w\in \mathbb{Z}$, $c\in \mathbb{Q}$,…

We study \emph{unimodular fake} $\mu's$, i.e. multiplicative functions $\mathfrak f: \N \to \mathbb{S}^1 \cup \{0\} $ determined by a fixed sequence $\{\varepsilon_k\}_{k\ge 0} \subset \mathbb{S}^1 \, \cup \, \{0\}$ via the rule $\mathfrak…

A generalization of the max-plus transformation, which is known as a method to derive cellular automata from integrable equations, is proposed for complex numbers. Operation rules for this transformation is also studied for general number…

We apply the Euler--Maclaurin formula to find the asymptotic expansion of the sums $\sum_{k=1}^n (\log k)^p / k^q$, ~$\sum k^q (\log k)^p$, ~$\sum (\log k)^p /(n-k)^q$, ~$\sum 1/k^q (\log k)^p $ in closed form to arbitrary order ($p,q…

For the Fourier transform $\mathcal{F}\mu$ of a general (non-trivial) self-similar measure $\mu$ on the real line $\mathbb{R}$, we prove a large deviation estimate \[ \lim_{c\to +0} \varlimsup_{t\to \infty}\frac{1}{t}\log…

We consider a strictly stationary and ergodic sequence of random elements taking values in some Hilbert space. Our target is to study the weak convergence of the discrete Fourier transforms under sharp conditions. As a side-result we obtain…

A famous conjecture of Chowla states that the Liouville function $\lambda(n)$ has negligible correlations with its shifts. Recently, the authors established a weak form of the logarithmically averaged Elliott conjecture on correlations of…

Denote by $p(k)$ the limit, as $n \rightarrow \infty$, of the probability that a random permutation on a set of size $n$ has an invariant set of size $k$. We give an asymptotic formula for $p(k)$, showing that it is asymptotically…

We completely classify Fourier summation formulas of the form $$ \int_{\mathbb{R}} \widehat{\varphi}(t) d\mu(t)=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a(\lambda_n)\varphi(\lambda_n), $$ that hold for any test function $\varphi$, where $\widehat\varphi$ is the…

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…

A discrete Laplace transform and its inversion formula are obtained by using a quadrature of the continuous Fourier transform which is given in terms of Hermite polynomials and its zeros. This approach yields a convergent discrete formula…

Let $p$ be a sufficiently large prime number, $r$ be any given positive integer. Suppose that $a_1,\,\dots,\,a_r$ are pairwise distinct and not zero modulo $p$. Let $N(a_1,\,\dots,\,a_r;\,p)$ denote the number of…

Let $<\P > \subset \N$ be a multiplicative subsemigroup of the natural numbers $\N = \{1,2,3,...\}$ generated by an arbitrary set $\P$ of primes (finite or infinite). We given an elementary proof that the partial sums $\sum_{n \in < \P >: n…

We obtain asymptotic formulas for the $2k$th moments of partially smoothed divisor sums of the M\"obius function. When $2k$ is small compared with $A$, the level of smoothing, then the main contribution to the moments come from integers…

Extensive studies of Boolean functions are carried in many fields. The Mobius transform is often involved for these studies. In particular, it plays a central role in coincident functions, the class of Boolean functions invariant by this…

Suppose that i.i.d. random variables $X_{1}, X_{2}, \ldots$ are chosen uniformly from $[0,1]$, and let $f: [0,1] \rightarrow [0,1]$ be an increasing bijection. Define $\mu_{f}$ to be the expected value of $f(X_{i})$ for each $i$. Define the…
