Let $k$ be a fixed integer. We study the asymptotic formula of $R(H,r,k)$, which is the number of positive integer solutions $1\le x,y,z\le H$ such that the polynomial $x^2+y^2+z^2+k$ is $r$-free. We obtained the asymptotic formula of $R(H,r,k)$ for all $r\ge 2$. Our result is new even in the case $r=2$. We proved that $R(H,2,k)=c_k{H}^3+O\left(H^{9/4+\epsilon }\right)$, where $c_k>0$ is a constant depending on $k$. This improves upon the error term $O\left(H^{7/3+\epsilon }\right)$ obtained by G.-L. Zhou, Y. Ding (2022).

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 establish an explicit connection between the perimeter measure of an open set $E$ with $C^1$ boundary and the spherical Hausdorff measure $S^{Q-1}$ restricted to $\partial E$, when the ambient space is a stratified group endowed with a left invariant sub-Riemannian metric and $Q$ denotes the Hausdorff dimension of the group. Our formula implies that the perimeter measure of $E$ is less than or equal to $S^{Q-1}\left(\partial E\right)$ up to a dimensional factor. The validity of this estimate positively answers a conjecture raised by Danielli,...

Motivated by the fundamental theorem of calculus, and based on the works of W. Feller as well as M. Kac and M. G. Kreĭn, given an atomless Borel probability measure $\eta$ supported on a compact subset of $ℝ$ U. Freiberg and M. Zähle introduced a measure-geometric approach to define a first order differential operator ${\nabla }_{\eta }$ and a second order differential operator ${\Delta }_{\eta }$, with respect to $\eta$. We generalize this approach to measures of the form $\eta :=\nu +\delta$, where $\nu$ is non-atomic and $\delta$ is finitely supported. We determine...

In many recent articles, medians have been used as a replacement of integral averages when the function fails to be locally integrable. A point $x$ in a metric measure space $(X,d,\mu )$ is called a generalized Lebesgue point of a measurable function $f$ if the medians of $f$ over the balls $B(x,r)$ converge to $f\left(x\right)$ when $r$ converges to $0$. We know that almost every point of a measurable, almost everywhere finite function is a generalized Lebesgue point and the same is true for every point of a continuous function....

Let ${\alpha }_i,{\beta }_i>0$, 1 ≤ i ≤ n, and for t > 0 and x = (x₁,...,xₙ) ∈ ℝⁿ, let $t•x=(t^{\alpha ₁}x₁,...,t^{\alpha ₙ}xₙ)$, $t\circ x=(t^{\beta ₁}x₁,...,t^{\beta ₙ}xₙ)$ and $\left|\right|x\left|\right|={\sum }_{i=1}^n{\left|x_i\right|}^{1/{\alpha }_i}$. Let φ₁,...,φₙ be real functions in $C^{\infty }(ℝⁿ-0)$ such that φ = (φ₁,..., φₙ) satisfies φ(t • x) = t ∘ φ(x). Let γ > 0 and let μ be the Borel measure on ${ℝ}^{2n}$ given by $\mu \left(E\right)={\int }_{ℝⁿ}{\chi }_E{(x,\phi \left(x\right))\left|\right|x\left|\right|}^{\gamma -\alpha }dx$, where $\alpha ={\sum }_{i=1}^n{\alpha }_i$ and dx denotes the Lebesgue measure on ℝⁿ. Let $T_{\mu }f=\mu \ast f$ and let $\left|\right|T_{\mu }{\left|\right|}_{p,q}$ be the operator norm of $T_{\mu }$ from $L^p\left({ℝ}^{2n}\right)$ into $L^q\left({ℝ}^{2n}\right)$, where the $L^p$ spaces are taken with respect to the Lebesgue measure. The type set $E_{\mu }$ is defined by $E_{\mu }=(1/p,1/q):\left|\right|T_{\mu }{\left|\right|}_{p,q}<\infty ,1\le p,q\le \infty$. In the case ${\alpha }_i\ne {\beta }_k$ for 1 ≤ i,k ≤ n we characterize the...

Let $X$ be the wonderful compactification of a connected adjoint semisimple group $G$ defined over a number field $K$. We prove Manin’s conjecture on the asymptotic (as $T\to \infty$) of the number of $K$-rational points of $X$ of height less than $T$, and give an explicit construction of a measure on $X\left(𝔸\right)$, generalizing Peyre’s measure, which describes the asymptotic distribution of the rational points $𝐆\left(K\right)$ on $X\left(𝔸\right)$. Our approach is based on the mixing property of $L^2(𝐆\left(K\right)\setminus 𝐆\left(𝔸\right))$ which we obtain with a rate of convergence. ...

Let $M$ be a given nonempty set of positive integers and $S$ any set of nonnegative integers. Let $\overline{\delta }\left(S\right)$ denote the upper asymptotic density of $S$. We consider the problem of finding $$\mu \left(M\right):=\underset{S}{sup}\overline{\delta }\left(S\right),$$ where the supremum is taken over all sets $S$ satisfying that for each $a,b\in S$, $a-b\notin M.$ In this paper we discuss the values and bounds of $\mu \left(M\right)$ where $M=\{a,b,a+nb\}$ for all even integers and for all sufficiently large odd integers $n$ with $a<b$ and $gcd(a,b)=1.$

Let $(X,d,\mu )$ be a metric measure space satisfying the doubling condition and an $L^2$-Poincaré inequality. Consider the nonnegative operator $ℒ$ generalized by a Dirichlet form on $X$. We will show that a solution $u$ to $(-{\partial }_t^2+ℒ)u=0$ on $X\times {ℝ}_{+}$ satisfies an $\alpha$-Carleson condition if and only if $u$ can be represented as the Poisson integral of the operator $ℒ$ with the trace in the generalized Morrey space $L^{2,\alpha }\left(X\right)$, where $\alpha$ is a nonnegative function defined on a class of balls in $X$. This result extends the analogous characterization...

Our main purpose is to establish the existence of a positive solution of the system ⎧$-{∆}_{p\left(x\right)}u=F(x,u,v)$, x ∈ Ω, ⎨$-{∆}_{q\left(x\right)}v=H(x,u,v)$, x ∈ Ω, ⎩u = v = 0, x ∈ ∂Ω, where $\Omega \subset {ℝ}^N$ is a bounded domain with C² boundary, $F(x,u,v)={\lambda }^{p\left(x\right)}[g\left(x\right)a\left(u\right)+f\left(v\right)]$, $H(x,u,v)={\lambda }^{q(x})[g\left(x\right)b\left(v\right)+h\left(u\right)]$, λ > 0 is a parameter, p(x),q(x) are functions which satisfy some conditions, and $-{∆}_{p\left(x\right)}u=-{div\left(\right|\nabla u|}^{p\left(x\right)-2}\nabla u)$ is called the p(x)-Laplacian. We give existence results and consider the asymptotic behavior of solutions near the boundary. We do not assume any symmetry conditions on the system.
