Given a multiplicative function f satisfying |f(n)| <= 1 for all n, the authors study the problem of obtaining explicit upper bounds on the mean-value 1/x |sum_{n <= x} f(n)|.

For an odd integer $d > 1$ and a finite Galois extension $K/\mathbb{Q}$ of degree $d$, G. L\"{u} and Z. Yang \cite{lu3} obtained an asymptotic formula for the mean values of the divisor function for $K$ over square integers. In this…

Walfisz (1963) proved the asymptotic formula \[ \sum_{n\le x}\varphi(n) = \frac{3}{\pi^2}x^2+O(x(\log x)^{\frac{2}{3}}(\log\log x)^{\frac{4}{3}}), \] which improved the error term estimate of Mertens (1874) and had been the best possible…

Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we obtain a lower bound within a constant factor of the conjectured asymptotic result for the second moment for primes in an individual arithmetic progression in short intervals. Previous results…

We prove an averaged version of a claim suspected to be true by Alladi, Erd\"os, and Vaaler. Qualitatively, the result states that a divisor sum of a multiplicative function, which obeys certain size constraints, derives most of its value…

Assuming the generalized Riemann hypothesis and a bound for the negative discrete moments of the Riemann zeta function (resp. Dirichlet $L$-functions), we prove the existence of a logarithmic limiting distribution for the normalized partial…

Let $a>1$ be an integer. Denote by $l_a(p)$ the multiplicative order of $a$ modulo primes $p$. We prove that if $\frac{x}{\log x\log\log x}=o(y)$, then $$\frac 1 y \sum_{a\leq y}\sum_{p\leq x}\frac{1}{l_a(p)}=\log x + C\log\log…

We discuss the mean values of multiplicative functions over function fields. In particular, we adapt the authors' new proof of Halasz's theorem on mean values to this simpler setting. Several of the technical difficulties that arise over…

We investigate the second moment of a random sampling $\zeta(1/2+iX_t)$ of the Riemann zeta function on the critical line. Our main result states that if $X_t$ is an increasing random sampling with gamma distribution, then for all…

Randomized quasi-Monte Carlo, via certain scramblings of digital nets, produces unbiased estimates of $\int_{[0,1]^d}f(\boldsymbol{x})\,\mathrm{d}\boldsymbol{x}$ with a variance that is $o(1/n)$ for any $f\in L^2[0,1]^d$. It also satisfies…

In this paper, we prove that the partial sum process of general orthogonal series is a geometric 2-rough process under the same condition as in Menshov-Rademacher Theorem. For Fourier series, the condition can be improved, and an equivalent…

Let $a_n$ be the random increasing sequence of natural numbers which takes each value independently with probability $n^{-a}$, $0 < a < 1/2$, and let $p(n) = n^{1+\epsilon}$, $0 < \epsilon < 1$. We prove that, almost surely, for every…

We introduce and investigate an adaptation of Fourier series to set-valued functions (multifunctions, SVFs) of bounded variation. In our approach we define an analogue of the partial sums of the Fourier series with the help of the Dirichlet…

We study subsampling estimators for the limit variance \[ \sigma^2=Var(X_1)+2 \sum_{k=2}^\infty Cov(X_1,X_k) \] of partial sums of a stationary stochastic process $(X_k)_{k\geq 1}$. We establish $L_2$-consistency of a non-overlapping block…

We use a graph-theoretic approach which yields improvements on the known Gilbert-Varshamov (GV) bound for sum-rank-metric codes for certain parameters. In particular, we show that asymptotically $\mathbb{F}_q^{\mathbf{n} \times \mathbf{m}}$…

We prove an O(log n) bound for the expected value of the logarithm of the componentwise (and, a fortiori, the mixed) condition number of a random sparse n x n matrix. As a consequence, small bounds on the average loss of accuracy for…

We show that partial transposition for pure and mixed two-particle states in a discrete $N$-dimensional Hilbert space is equivalent to a change in sign of a "momentum-like" variable of one of the particles in the Wigner function for the…

Among the various procedures used to detect potential changes in a stochastic process the moving sum algorithms are very popular due to their intuitive appeal and good statistical performance. One of the important design parameters of a…

We consider moments of higher powers of quadratic Dirichlet character sums. In a restricted region, we give their asymptotic behavior by using de la Bret\`{e}che's multivariable Tauberian theorem. We also give the lower bound of the…

Sums of of 1-dependent integer-valued random variables are approximated by compound Poisson, negative binomial and Binomial distributions and signed compound Poisson measures. Estimates are obtained for total variation and local metrics.…
