We use bounds of character sums and some combinatorial arguments to show the abundance of very smooth numbers which also have very few nonzero binary digits.

The purpose of this note is to obtain an improved lower bound for the multidimensional Bohr radius introduced by L. Aizenberg (2000, Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society 128, 1147–1155), by means of a rather simple argument.

Let $H^\infty $ be the algebra of bounded holomorphic functions on the open unit disk, and let $\mathfrak M$ be its maximal ideal space. Let $\mathfrak M_a$ be the union of nontrivial Gleason parts (analytic disks) of $\mathfrak M$. In this paper, we study the problem of extensions of bounded Banach-valued holomorphic functions and holomorphic maps with values in Oka manifolds from Gleason parts of $\mathfrak M_a\setminus \mathbb {D}$. The resulting extensions satisfy the uniform boundedness principle in the sense that their norms are bounded by constants that do not depend on the choice of the Gleason part. The results extend fundamental results of D. Suárez on the characterization of the algebra of restrictions of Gelfand transforms of functions in $H^\infty $ to Gleason parts of $ \mathfrak M_a\setminus \mathbb {D}$. The proofs utilize our recent advances on $\bar \partial $-equations on quasi-interpolating sets and Runge-type approximations.

In this note, we revisit Ramanujan-type series for $\frac {1}{\pi }$ and show how they arise from genus zero subgroups of $\mathrm {SL}_{2}(\mathbb {R})$ that are commensurable with $\mathrm {SL}_{2}(\mathbb {Z})$. As illustrations, we reproduce a striking formula of Ramanujan for $\frac {1}{\pi }$ and a recent result of Cooper et al., as well as derive a new rational Ramanujan-type series for $\frac {1}{\pi }$. As a byproduct, we obtain a Clausen-type formula in some general sense and reproduce a Clausen-type quadratic transformation formula closely related to the aforementioned formula of Ramanujan.

We prove that there exist infinitely many coprime numbers a, b, c with $a+b=c$ and $c>\operatorname {\mathrm {rad}}(abc)\exp (6.563\sqrt {\log c}/\log \log c)$. These are the most extremal examples currently known in the $abc$ conjecture, thereby providing a new lower bound on the tightest possible form of the conjecture. Our work builds on that of van Frankenhuysen (J. Number Theory 82(2000), 91–95) who proved the existence of examples satisfying the above bound with the constant $6.068$ in place of $6.563$. We show that the constant $6.563$ may be replaced by $4\sqrt {2\delta /e}$ where $\delta $ is a constant such that all unimodular lattices of sufficiently large dimension n contain a nonzero vector with $\ell _1$-norm at most $n/\delta $.

We characterize the finite codimension sub-${\mathbf {k}}$-algebras of ${\mathbf {k}}[\![t]\!]$ as the solutions of a computable finite family of higher differential operators. For this end, we establish a duality between such a sub-algebras and the finite codimension ${\mathbf {k}}$-vector spaces of ${\mathbf {k}}[u]$, this ring acts on ${\mathbf {k}}[\![t]\!]$ by differentiation.

We prove that the uncentered Hardy–Littlewood maximal operator is discontinuous on ${BMO}(\mathbb {R}^n)$ and maps ${VMO}(\mathbb {R}^n)$ to itself. A counterexample to the boundedness of the strong and directional maximal operators on ${BMO}(\mathbb {R}^n)$ is given, and properties of slices of ${BMO}(\mathbb {R}^n)$ functions are discussed.

Let $\mathcal {F}$ denote the set of functions $f \colon [-1/2,1/2] \to \mathbb {R}_{\geq 0}$ such that $\int f = 1$. We determine the value of $\inf _{f \in \mathcal {F}} \| f \ast f \|_2^2$ up to a $4 \cdot 10^{-6}$ error, thereby making progress on a problem asked by Ben Green. Furthermore, we prove that a unique minimizer exists. As a corollary, we obtain improvements on the maximum size of $B_h[g]$ sets for $(g,h) \in \{ (2,2),(3,2),(4,2),(1,3),(1,4)\}$.

We construct pairs of residually finite groups with isomorphic profinite completions such that one has non-vanishing and the other has vanishing real second bounded cohomology. The examples are lattices in different higher-rank simple Lie groups. Using Galois cohomology, we actually show that $\operatorname {SO}^0(n,2)$ for $n \ge 6$ and the exceptional groups $E_{6(-14)}$ and $E_{7(-25)}$ constitute the complete list of higher-rank Lie groups admitting such examples.

Let K be a non-Archimedean valued field with valuation ring R. Let $C_\eta $ be a K-curve with compact-type reduction, so its Jacobian $J_\eta $ extends to an abelian R-scheme J. We prove that an Abel–Jacobi map $\iota \colon C_\eta \to J_\eta $ extends to a morphism $C\to J$, where C is a compact-type R-model of J, and we show this is a closed immersion when the special fiber of C has no rational components. To do so, we apply a rigid-analytic “fiberwise” criterion for a morphism to extend to integral models, and geometric results of Bosch and Lütkebohmert on the analytic structure of $J_\eta $.

We verify a long-standing conjecture on the membership of univalent harmonic mappings in the Hardy space, whenever the functions have a “nice” analytic part. We also produce a coefficient estimate for these functions, which is in a sense best possible. The problem is then explored in a new direction, without the additional hypothesis. Interestingly, our ideas extend to certain classes of locally univalent harmonic mappings. Finally, we prove a Baernstein-type extremal result for the function $\log (h'+cg')$, when $f=h+\overline {g}$ is a close-to-convex harmonic function, and c is a constant. This leads to a sharp coefficient inequality for these functions.

The main goal of this paper is to construct universal spaces for asymptotic dimension by generalizing to the coarse context an approach to constructing universal spaces for covering dimension using a factorization result due to Mardesic.

On all Bergman–Besov Hilbert spaces on the unit disk, we find self-adjoint weighted shift operators that are differential operators of half-order whose commutators are the identity, thereby obtaining uncertainty relations in these spaces. We also obtain joint average uncertainty relations for pairs of commuting tuples of operators on the same spaces defined on the unit ball. We further identify functions that yield equality in some uncertainty inequalities.

Let $f(z)=\sum _{n=0}^{\infty }a_n z^n \in H(\mathbb {D})$ be an analytic function over the unit disk in the complex plane, and let $\mathcal {R} f$ be its randomization:

$$ \begin{align*}(\mathcal{R} f)(z)= \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a_n X_n z^n \in H(\mathbb{D}),\end{align*} $$

where $(X_n)_{n\ge 0}$ is a standard sequence of independent Bernoulli, Steinhaus, or Gaussian random variables. In this note, we characterize those $f(z) \in H(\mathbb {D})$ such that the zero set of $\mathcal {R} f$ satisfies a Blaschke-type condition almost surely:

$$ \begin{align*}\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}(1-|z_n|)^t<\infty, \quad t>1.\end{align*} $$

We first introduce the concept of weak random periodic solutions of random dynamical systems. Then, we discuss the existence of such periodic solutions. Further, we introduce the definition of weak random periodic measures and study their relationship with weak random periodic solutions. In particular, we establish the existence of invariant measures of random dynamical systems by virtue of their weak random periodic solutions. We use concrete examples to illustrate the weak random periodic phenomena of dynamical systems induced by random and stochastic differential equations.

We study the relationship between weak* Dunford–Pettis and weakly (resp. M-weakly, order weakly, almost M-weakly, and almost L-weakly) operators on Banach lattices. The following is one of the major results dealing with this matter: If E and F are Banach lattices such that F is Dedekind $\sigma $-complete, then each positive weak* Dunford–Pettis operator $T:E\rightarrow F$ is weakly compact if and only if one of the following assertions is valid: (a) the norms of $E^{\prime }$ and F are order continuous; (b) E is reflexive; and (c) F is reflexive.

Following Faber–Pandharipande, we use the virtual localization formula for the moduli space of stable maps to $\mathbb {P}^{1}$ to compute relations between Hodge integrals. We prove that certain generating series of these integrals are polynomials.

Solving a nonsmooth and nonconvex minimization problem can be approached as finding a zero of a set-valued operator. With this perspective, we propose a novel Majorizer–Minimizer technique to find a local minimizer of a nonsmooth and nonconvex function and establish its convergence. Our approach leverages Bregman distances to generalize the classical quadratic regularization. By doing so, we generate a family of regularized problems that encompasses quadratic regularization as a special case. To further demonstrate the effectiveness of our method, we apply it on a lasso regression model, showcasing its performance.

In this article, we establish three new versions of Landau-type theorems for bounded bi-analytic functions of the form $F(z)=\bar {z}G(z)+H(z)$, where G and H are analytic in the unit disk with $G(0)=H(0)=0$ and $H'(0)=1$. In particular, two of them are sharp, while the other one either generalizes or improves the corresponding result of Abdulhadi and Hajj. As consequences, several new sharp versions of Landau-type theorems for certain subclasses of bounded biharmonic mappings are proved.

Let $(M, F, m)$ be a forward complete Finsler measure space. In this paper, we prove that any nonnegative global subsolution in $L^p(M)(p>1)$ to the heat equation on $\mathbb R^+\times M$ is uniquely determined by the initial data. Moreover, we give an $L^p(0<p\leq 1)$ Liouville-type theorem for nonnegative subsolutions u to the heat equation on $\mathbb R\times M$ by establishing the local $L^p$ mean value inequality for u on M with Ric$_N\geq -K(K\geq 0)$.
