Let $W(m,n;\underline{\psi })$ denote the set of ${\psi }_1,...,{\psi }_n$–approximable points in ${ℝ}^{mn}$. The classical Khintchine–Groshev theorem assumes a monotonicity condition on the approximating functions $\underline{\psi }$. Removing monotonicity from the Khintchine–Groshev theorem is attributed to different authors for different cases of $m$ and $n$. It can not be removed for $m=n=1$ as Duffin–Schaeffer provided the counter example. We deal with the only remaining case $m=2$ and thereby remove all unnecessary conditions from the Khintchine–Groshev theorem. ...

Suppose that $f$ is a primitive Hecke eigenform or a Mass cusp form for ${\Gamma }_0\left(N\right)$ with normalized eigenvalues ${\lambda }_f\left(n\right)$ and let $X>1$ be a real number. We consider the sum $${𝒮}_k\left(X\right):=\sum _{n<X}\sum _{n=n_1,n_2,...,n_k}{\lambda }_f\left(n_1\right){\lambda }_f\left(n_2\right)...{\lambda }_f\left(n_k\right)$$ and show that ${𝒮}_k\left(X\right){\ll }_{f,ϵ}{X}^{1-3/\left(2\right(k+3\left)\right)+ϵ}$ for every $k\ge 1$ and $ϵ>0$. The same problem was considered for the case $N=1$, that is for the full modular group in Lü (2012) and Kanemitsu et al. (2002). We consider the problem in a more general setting and obtain bounds which are better than those obtained by the classical result of Landau (1915) for $k\ge 5$. Since the result is valid...

Let r,m be positive integers with r > 1, m even, and A,B be integers satisfying $A+B\surd (-1)={(m+\surd (-1))}^r$. We prove that the Diophantine equation ${\left|A\right|}^x+{\left|B\right|}^y={(m²+1)}^z$ has no positive integer solutions in (x,y,z) other than (x,y,z) = (2,2,r), whenever $r>{10}^{74}$ or $m>{10}^{34}$. Our result is an explicit refinement of a theorem due to F. Luca.

We consider $N$, the number of solutions $(x,y,u,v)$ to the equation ${(-1)}^{u}r{a}^x+{(-1)}^{v}s{b}^y=c$ in nonnegative integers $x,y$ and integers $u,v\in \{0,1\}$, for given integers $a\&gt;1$, $b\&gt;1$, $c\&gt;0$, $r\&gt;0$ and $s\&gt;0$. When $gcd(ra,sb)=1$, we show that $N\le 3$ except for a finite number of cases all of which satisfy $max(a,b,r,s,x,y)\&lt;2·{10}^{15}$ for each solution; when $gcd(a,b)\&gt;1$, we show that $N\le 3$ except for three infinite families of exceptional cases. We find several different ways to generate an infinite number of cases giving $N=3$ solutions.

Let β ∈ (1,2) and x ∈ [0,1/(β-1)]. We call a sequence ${\left({ϵ}_i\right)}_{i=1}^{\infty }\in {0,1}^{\mathbb{N}}$ a β-expansion for x if $x={\sum }_{i=1}^{\infty }{ϵ}_i{\beta }^{-i}$. We call a finite sequence ${\left({ϵ}_i\right)}_{i=1}^n\in {0,1}^n$ an n-prefix for x if it can be extended to form a β-expansion of x. In this paper we study how good an approximation is provided by the set of n-prefixes. Given $\Psi :\mathbb{N}\to {ℝ}_{\ge 0}$, we introduce the following subset of ℝ: $W_{\beta }\left(\Psi \right):={\bigcap }_{m=1}^{\infty }{\bigcup }_{n=m}^{\infty }{\bigcup }_{{\left({ϵ}_i\right)}_{i=1}^n\in {0,1}^n}[{\sum }_{i=1}^n\left({ϵ}_i\right)/\left({\beta }^i\right),{\sum }_{i=1}^n\left({ϵ}_i\right)/\left({\beta }^i\right)+\Psi \left(n\right)]$In other words, $W_{\beta }\left(\Psi \right)$ is the set of x ∈ ℝ for which there exist infinitely many solutions to the inequalities $0\le x-{\sum }_{i=1}^n\left({ϵ}_i\right)/\left({\beta }^i\right)\le \Psi \left(n\right)$. When ${\sum }_{n=1}^{\infty }{2}^n\Psi \left(n\right)<\infty$, the Borel-Cantelli lemma tells us that the Lebesgue measure...

We study the Diophantine equations ${(k!)}^n-k^n={(n!)}^k-n^k$ and ${(k!)}^n+k^n={(n!)}^k+n^k,$ where $k$ and $n$ are positive integers. We show that the first one holds if and only if $k=n$ or $(k,n)=(1,2),(2,1)$ and that the second one holds if and only if $k=n$.

It is shown that there is a subspace $Z_q$ of ${\ell }_q$ for $1<q<2$ which is isomorphic to ${\ell }_q$ such that ${\ell }_q/Z_q$ does not have the approximation property. On the other hand, for $2<p<\infty$ there is a subspace $Y_p$ of ${\ell }_p$ such that $Y_p$ does not have the approximation property (AP) but the quotient space ${\ell }_p/Y_p$ is isomorphic to ${\ell }_p$. The result is obtained by defining random “Enflo-Davie spaces” $Y_p$ which with full probability fail AP for all $2<p\le \infty$ and have AP for all $1\le p\le 2$. For $1<p\le 2$, $Y_p$ are isomorphic to ${\ell }_p$.

We consider the systems of hyperbolic equations ⎧$uₜₜ=\Delta \left(a(t,x)u\right)+\Delta \left(b(t,x)v\right)+{h(t,x)\left|v\right|}^p$, t > 0, $x\in {ℝ}^N$, (S1) ⎨ ⎩$vₜₜ=\Delta \left(c(t,x)v\right)+{k(t,x)\left|u\right|}^q$, t > 0, $x\in {ℝ}^N$ ⎧$uₜₜ=\Delta \left(a(t,x)u\right)+{h(t,x)\left|v\right|}^p$, t > 0, $x\in {ℝ}^N$, (S2) ⎨ ⎩$vₜₜ=\Delta \left(c(t,x)v\right)+{l(t,x)\left|v\right|}^m+k(t,x){\left|u\right|}^q$, t > 0, $x\in {ℝ}^N$, (S3) ⎧$uₜₜ=\Delta \left(a(t,x)u\right)+\Delta \left(b(t,x)v\right)+{h(t,x)\left|u\right|}^p$, t > 0, $x\in {ℝ}^N$, ⎨ ⎩$vₜₜ=\Delta \left(c(t,x)v\right)+{k(t,x)\left|v\right|}^q$, t > 0, $x\in {ℝ}^N$, in $(0,\infty )\times {ℝ}^N$ with u(0,x) = u₀(x), v(0,x) = v₀(x), uₜ(0,x) = u₁(x), vₜ(0,x) = v₁(x). We show that, in each case, there exists a bound B on N such that for 1 ≤ N ≤ B solutions to the systems blow up in finite time.

Let $D$ be a ${𝒞}^d$ $q$-convex intersection, $d\ge 2$, $0\le q\le n-1$, in a complex manifold $X$ of complex dimension $n$, $n\ge 2$, and let $E$ be a holomorphic vector bundle of rank $N$ over $X$. In this paper, ${𝒞}^k$-estimates, $k=2,3,\cdots ,\infty$, for solutions to the $\overline{\partial }$-equation with small loss of smoothness are obtained for $E$-valued $(0,s)$-forms on $D$ when $n-q\le s\le n$. In addition, we solve the $\overline{\partial }$-equation with a support condition in ${𝒞}^k$-spaces. More precisely, we prove that for a $\overline{\partial }$-closed form $f$ in ${𝒞}_{0,q}^k(X\setminus D,E)$, $1\le q\le n-2$, $n\ge 3$, with compact support and for $\epsilon$ with $0<\epsilon <1$ there...

We prove some results in the context of isoperimetric inequalities with quantitative terms. In the $2$-dimensional case, our main contribution is a method for determining the optimal coefficients $c_1,...,c_m$ in the inequality $\delta P\left(E\right)\ge {\sum }_{k=1}^m{c}_k\alpha {\left(E\right)}^k+o\left(\alpha {\left(E\right)}^m\right)$, valid for each Borel set $E$ with positive and finite area, with $\delta P\left(E\right)$ and $\alpha \left(E\right)$ being, respectively, the $\mathrm{𝑖𝑠𝑜𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑖𝑚𝑒𝑡𝑟𝑖𝑐𝑑𝑒𝑓𝑖𝑐𝑖𝑡}$ and the $\mathrm{𝐹𝑟𝑎𝑒𝑛𝑘𝑒𝑙𝑎𝑠𝑦𝑚𝑚𝑒𝑡𝑟𝑦}$ of $E$. In $n$ dimensions, besides proving existence and regularity properties of minimizers for a wide class of $\mathrm{𝑞𝑢𝑎𝑛𝑡𝑖𝑡𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑣𝑒𝑖𝑠𝑜𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑖𝑚𝑒𝑡𝑟𝑖𝑐𝑞𝑢𝑜𝑡𝑖𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑠}$ including the lower semicontinuous extension of $\frac{\delta P\left(E\right)}{\alpha {\left(E\right)}^2}$, we...

Let $E$ and $f$ be an Eisenstein series and a cusp form, respectively, of the same weight $k\ge 2$ and of the same level $N$, both eigenfunctions of the Hecke operators, and both normalized so that $a_1\left(f\right)=a_1\left(E\right)=1$. The main result we prove is that when $E$ and $f$ are congruent mod a prime $𝔭$ (which we take in this paper to be a prime of $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$ lying over a rational prime $p\&gt;2$), the algebraic parts of the special values $L(E,\chi ,j)$ and $L(f,\chi ,j)$ satisfy congruences mod the same prime. More explicitly, we prove that, under certain conditions, ...

Let ${\mathrm{𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}}_{k\to d}$ be the following algorithmic problem: Given a finite simplicial complex $K$ of dimension at most $k$, does there exist a (piecewise linear) embedding of $K$ into ${ℝ}^d$? Known results easily imply polynomiality of ${\mathrm{𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}}_{k\to 2}$ ($k=1,2$; the case $k=1,d=2$ is graph planarity) and of ${\mathrm{𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}}_{k\to 2k}$ for all $k\ge 3$. We show that the celebrated result of Novikov on the algorithmic unsolvability of recognizing the 5-sphere implies that ${\mathrm{𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}}_{d\to d}$ and ${\mathrm{𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}}_{(d-1)\to d}$ are undecidable for each ${}_d\ge 5$. Our main result is NP-hardness of ${\mathrm{𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}}_{2\to 4}$ and, more generally, of ${\mathrm{𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}}_{k\to d}$ for all...

We show that any ${\Sigma }_s$-product of at most $𝔠$-many $L\Sigma (\le \omega )$-spaces has the $L\Sigma (\le \omega )$-property. This result generalizes some known results about $L\Sigma (\le \omega )$-spaces. On the other hand, we prove that every ${\Sigma }_s$-product of monotonically monolithic spaces is monotonically monolithic, and in a similar form, we show that every ${\Sigma }_s$-product of Collins-Roscoe spaces has the Collins-Roscoe property. These results generalize some known results about the Collins-Roscoe spaces and answer some questions due to Tkachuk [Lifting the Collins-Roscoe...
