We use techniques of dyadic analysis in order to prove that, for every $0<s<\tfrac{1}{2}$, there exists a positive constant $\gamma(s)$ such that the inequality $$\left(\iint_{\mathbb{R}^2}|x-y|^{2s-1}|\varphi(x)||\varphi(y)|dx…

Let $M(x)$ denote the largest cardinality of a subset of $\{n \in \mathbf{N}: n \leq x\}$ on which the Euler totient function $\varphi(n)$ is non-decreasing. We show that $M(x) = (1+O(\frac{(\log\log x)^5}{\log x})) \pi(x)$ for all $x \geq…

In this article, we prove that the double inequality $$\alpha G(a,b)+(1-\alpha)C(a,b)<M(a,b)<\beta G(a,b)+(1-\beta)C(a,b)$$ holds true for all $a,b>0$ with $a\neq b$ if and only if $\alpha\geq 5/9$ and $\beta\leq…

In this paper, we consider elliptic boundary value problems with discontinuous coefficients and obtain the asymptotic optimal error estimate $\|u-u_k\|_{1,\Omega}\leqslant Ch|\ln h|^{1/2}\|u\|_{2,\Omega_1+\Omega_2}$ for triangle linear…

Given a list of N numbers, the maximum can be computed in N iterations. During these N iterations, the maximum gets updated on average as many times as the Nth harmonic number. We first use this fact to approximate the Nth harmonic number…

In this paper, we study the $L^p(\mathbb{R}^2)$-improving bounds, i.e., $L^p(\mathbb{R}^2)\rightarrow L^q(\mathbb{R}^2)$ estimates, of the maximal function $M_{\gamma}$ along a plane curve $(t,\gamma(t))$, where…

We provide representations of Euler's constant $\gamma=0.577...$ as series which converge geometrically fast (but use coefficients whose computation induces a quadratic cost). The asymptotic oscillations of these coefficients are discussed.

Let $n$ be an integer and $W_n$ be the Lambert $W$ function. Let $\log$ denote the natural logarithm so that $\delta=-W_n(-\log2)/\log2$. Given that $a$ and $r$ are respectively the first term and the constant ratio of an infinite geometric…

We define a family {$\gamma(P)$} of generalized Euler constants indexed by finite sets of primes $P$ and study their distribution. These arise from partial sums of reciprocals of integers not divisible by any prime in $P$. An apparent…

We establish that \[\sum_{m=1}^\infty \sum_{n=1}^\infty a_m \overline{a_n} \frac{mn}{(\max(m,n))^3} \leq \frac{4}{3}\sum_{m=1}^\infty |a_m|^2\] holds for every square-summable sequence of complex numbers $a = (a_1,a_2,\ldots)$ and that the…

Suppose $X$ is a uniformly distributed $n$-dimensional binary vector and $Y$ is obtained by passing $X$ through a binary symmetric channel with crossover probability $\alpha$. A recent conjecture by Courtade and Kumar postulates that…

Let $E$ be an arbitrary closed set on the unit circle $\partial \mathbb{D}$, u be a harmonic function on the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ satisfying $|u(z)|\lesssim (1-|z|)^\gamma \rho^{-q}(z)$ where $\rho(z)= \mathop{\rm dist}(z, E)$, $\gamma$,…

The aim of this paper is to develop analytic techniques to deal with certain monotonicity of combinatorial sequences. (1) A criterion for the monotonicity of the function $\sqrt[x]{f(x)}$ is given, which is a continuous analog for one…

A positive integer $n$ is called a balancing number if there exists a positive integer $r$ such that $1 + 2 + \cdots + (n-1) = (n+1) + (n+2) + \cdots + (n+r)$. The corresponding value $r$ is known as the balancer of $n$. If $n$ is a…

The sequence of 1/2-discrepancy sums of $\{x + i \theta \bmod 1\}$ is realized through a sequence of substitutions on an alphabet of three symbols; particular attention is paid to $x=0$. The first application is to show that any asymptotic…

Let $\{X_{k,i};i\geq 1,k\geq 1\}$ be an array of i.i.d. random variables and let $\{p_n;n\geq 1\}$ be a sequence of positive integers such that $n/p_n$ is bounded away from 0 and $\infty$. For $W_n=\max_{1\leq i<j\leq…

We prove that for any unweighted graph on n vertices the L1 norm of a unit electric current between the endpoints of a random edge is at most 2 log n. Furthermore, we show that on any weighted graph the spectral norm of the entry-wise…

Let $(u_n)_{n \geq 0}$ be a non-degenerate Lucas sequence, given by the relation $u_n=a_1 u_{n-1}+a_2 u_{n-2}$. Let $\ell_u(m)=lcm(m, z_u(m))$, for $(m,a_2)=1$, where $z_u(m)$ is the rank of appearance of $m$ in $u_n$. We prove that…

In 2007, A.I.Aptekarev and his collaborators discovered a sequence of rational approximations to Euler's constant $\gamma$ defined by a linear recurrence. In this paper, we generalize this result and present an explicit construction of…

We prove an inequality of the form $\gamma_n\geq C_n(\gamma_{n-1})$ giving a lower bound for the Hermite constant $\gamma_n$ in dimension $n$ in terms of $\gamma_{n-1}$. Iterating this inequality yields a new proof of the Minkowski-Hlawka…
