The Erd\H{o}s-Hooley Delta function is defined for $n\in\mathbb{N}$ as $\Delta(n)=\sup_{u\in\mathbb{R}} \#\{d|n : e^u<d\le e^{u+1}\}$. We prove that $\sum_{n\le x} \Delta(n) \ll x(\log\log x)^{11/4}$ for all $x\ge100$. This improves on…
For integer $n\geqslant 1$ and real $u$, let $\Delta(n,u):=|\{d:d\mid n,\,{\rm e}^u<d\leqslant {\rm e}^{u+1}\}|$. The Erd\H{o}s--Hooley Delta-function is then defined by $\Delta(n):=\max_{u\in{\mathbb R}}\Delta(n,u).$ We improve a recent…
For integer $n\geqslant 1$ and real $u$, let $\Delta(n,u):=|\{d:d\mid n,\,{\rm e}^u<d\leqslant {\rm e}^{u+1}\}|$. The Erd\H{o}s--Hooley Delta-function is then defined by $\Delta(n):=\max_{u\in{\mathbb R}}\Delta(n,u).$ We improve the current…
We provide new upper bounds for sums of certain arithmetic functions in many variables at polynomial arguments and, exploiting recent progress on the mean-value of the Erd\H os-Hooley $\Delta$-function, we derive lower bounds for the…
We prove a totally explicit bound for short sums of certain non-negative arithmetic functions satisfying a general growth condition, and apply this result to derive two explicit estimates for the Erd\H{o}s-Hooley $\Delta$-function in short…

For integer $n$ and real $u$, define $\Delta(n,u):= |\{d : d \mid n,\,{\rm e}^u <d\leqslant {\rm e}^{u+1} \}|$. Then, put $ \Delta(n):=\max_{u\in{\mathbb R}} \Delta(n,u).$ We provide uniform upper and lower bounds for the mean-value of…
We study the extent to which divisors of a typical integer $n$ are concentrated. In particular, defining the Erd\H{o}s-Hooley $\Delta$-function by $\Delta(n) := \max_t \# \{d | n, \log d \in [t,t+1]\}$, we show that $\Delta(n) \geq (\log…
Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we provide uniform upper bounds with explicit main terms for moduli of $\left(\cL'/\cL\right)(s)$ and $\log{\cL(s)}$ for $1/2+\delta\leq\sigma<1$, fixed $\delta\in(0,1/2)$ and for functions in…
If $$ \Delta(x) \;:=\; \sum_{n\leqslant x}c_n - Cx\qquad(C>0) $$ denotes the error term in the classical Rankin-Selberg problem, then we obtain a non-trivial upper bound for the mean square of $\Delta(x+U) - \Delta(x)$ for a certain range…
Let A be a finite subset of an abelian group (G, +). Let h $\ge$ 2 be an integer. If |A| $\ge$ 2 and the cardinality |hA| of the h-fold iterated sumset hA = A + $\times$ $\times$ $\times$ + A is known, what can one say about |(h -- 1)A| and…
We prove tight estimates for averages of the twisted Hooley $\Delta$-function over arbitrary number fields.
Let $d(n)$ be the number of divisors of $n$, let $$ \Delta(x) := \sum_{n\le x}d(n) - x(\log x + 2\gamma -1) $$ denote the error term in the classical Dirichlet divisor problem, and let $\zeta(s)$ denote the Riemann zeta-function. Several…
Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we provide uniform upper and lower bounds with explicit main terms for $\log{\left|\cL(s)\right|}$ for $\sigma \in (1/2,1)$ and for functions in the Selberg class. In particular, we focus on the…
This paper improves the bound on $|S(T)|$. The main result is to show that $|S(T)|\leq 0.111\log T + 0.275\log\log T + 2.450$, which is valid for all $T\geq e$.
We obtain optimal lower bounds for moments of theta functions. On the other hand, we also get new upper bounds on individual theta values and moments of theta functions on average over primes. The upper bounds are based on bounds of…
We provide explicit upper bounds of the order $\log t/\log\log t$ for $|\zeta'(s)/\zeta(s)|$ and $|1/\zeta(s)|$ when $\sigma$ is close to $1$. These improve existing bounds for $\zeta(s)$ on the $1$-line.
We investigate the extreme values of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$. On the 1-line, we obtain a lower bound evaluation $$\max_{t\in[1,T]}|\zeta(1+\i t)|\ge {\rm e}^\gamma(\log_2T+\log_3T+c),$$ with an effective constant $c$ which…
Helfgott proved that there exists a $\delta>0$ such that if $S$ is a symmetric generating subset of $SL(2,p)$ containing 1 then either $S^3=SL(2,p)$ or $|S^3|\geq |S|^{1+\delta}$. It is known that $\delta\geq 1/3024$. Here we show that…
Let $[q] = \{0,1,\ldots,q-1\}$, let $\Delta[q]$ denote the simplex of probability measures on $[q]$, and let $\gamma$ denote the Lebesgue measure normalized on $\Delta[q]$. We prove that for any symmetric monotone function $f \colon[q]^n…
