On The Lucas Difference Sequence Spaces Defined By Modulus Function, Murat Karakaş, Tayfur Akbaş, Ayşe M. Karakaş

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, firstly, we define the Lucas difference sequence spaces by the help of Lucas sequence and a sequence of modulus function. Besides, we give some inclusion relations and examine geometrical properties such as Banach-Saks type p, weak fixed point property.

The Weyl Bound For Dirichlet L-Functions, Matthew P. Young

NSF-CBMS Conference: L-functions and Multiplicative Number Theory

Abstract: In the 1960's, Burgess proved a subconvexity bound for Dirichlet L-functions. However, the quality of this bound was not as strong, in terms of the conductor, as the classical Weyl bound for the Riemann zeta function. In a major breakthrough, Conrey and Iwaniec established the Weyl bound for quadratic Dirichlet L-functions. I will discuss recent work with Ian Petrow that generalizes the Conrey-Iwaniec bound for more general characters, in particular arbitrary characters of prime modulus.

Extension Of A Positivity Trick And Estimates Involving L-Functions At The Edge Of The Critical Strip, Xiannan Li

NSF-CBMS Conference: L-functions and Multiplicative Number Theory

Updated schedule

Abstract: I will review an old trick, and relate this to some modern results involving estimates for L-functions at the edge of the critical strip. These will include a good bound for automorphic L-functions and Rankin-Selberg L-functions as well as estimates for primes which split completely in a number field.

High Moments Of L-Functions, Vorrapan Chandee

NSF-CBMS Conference: L-functions and Multiplicative Number Theory

Abstract: Moments of L-functions on the critical line (Re(s) = 1/2) have been extensively studied due to numerous applications, for example, bounds for L-functions, information on zeros of L-functions, and connections to the generalized Riemann hypothesis. However, the current understanding of higher moments is very limited. In this talk, I will give an overview how we can achieve asymptotic and bounds for higher moments by enlarging the size of various families of L-functions and show some techniques that are involved.

Moments Of Cubic L-Functions Over Function Fields, Alexandra Florea

NSF-CBMS Conference: L-functions and Multiplicative Number Theory

Abstract: I will talk about some recent work with Chantal David and Matilde Lalin about the mean value of L-functions associated to cubic characters over F_q[t] when q=1 (mod 3). I will explain how to obtain an asymptotic formula which relies on obtaining cancellation in averages of cubic Gauss sums over functions fields. I will also talk about the corresponding non-Kummer case when q=2 (mod 3) and I will explain why this setting is somewhat easier to handle than the Kummer case, which allows us to prove some better results.

An Effective Chebotarev Density Theorem For Families Of Fields, With An Application To Class Groups, Caroline Turnage-Butterbaugh

NSF-CBMS Conference: L-functions and Multiplicative Number Theory

This talk will present an effective Chebotarev theorem that holds for all but a possible zero-density subfamily of certain families of number fields of fixed degree. For certain families, this work is unconditional, and in other cases it is conditional on the strong Artin conjecture and certain conjectures on counting number fields. As an application, we obtain nontrivial average upper bounds on ℓ-torsion in the class groups of the families of fields.

Landau-Siegel Zeros And Their Illusory Consequences, Kyle Pratt

NSF-CBMS Conference: L-functions and Multiplicative Number Theory

Updated time

Abstract: Researchers have tried for many years to eliminate the possibility of LandauSiegel zeros—certain exceptional counterexamples to the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis. Often one thinks of these zeros as being a severe nuisance, but there are many situations in which their existence allows one to prove spectacular, though illusory, results. I will review some of this history and some of these results. In the latter portion of the talk I will discuss recent work, joint with H. M. Bui and Alexandru Zaharescu, in which we show that the existence of Landau-Siegel zeros has implications for the behavior of Dirichlet …

Arecibo Message, Joshua P. Tan

Open Educational Resources

This two week assignment asks students to interpret and analyze the 1974 Arecibo Message sent by Drake and Sagan. Week 1 introduces the concepts behind the construction of the message and engages with a critical analysis of the architecture and the contents of the message. Week 2 asks students to develop software in a Jupyter Notebook (available for free from the Anaconda Python Distribution) to interpret messages that were similar to those produced by Drake and Sagan.

Congruence Relations Mod 2 For (2 X 4^T + 1)-Colored Partitions, Nicholas Torello

Senior Theses

Let p_r(n) denote the difference between the number of r-colored partitions of n into an even number of distinct parts and into an odd number of distinct parts. Inspired by proofs involving modular forms of the Hirschhorn-Sellers Conjecture, we prove a similar congruence for p_r(n). Using the Jacobi Triple Product identity, we discover a much stricter congruence for p_3(n).

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

In this paper, we generalize the soft set tothe hypersoft set by transforming the function F into a multi-attribute function. Then we introduce the hybrids of Crisp, Fuzzy, Intuitionistic Fuzzy, Neutrosophic, and Plithogenic Hypersoft Set.
