AbstractWe investigate the behaviour of the function $L_{\alpha }(x) = \sum _{n\leq x}\lambda (n)/n^{\alpha }$, where $\lambda (n)$ is the Liouville function and $\alpha $ is a real parameter. The case where $\alpha =0$ was investigated by Pólya; the case $\alpha =1$, by Turán. The question of the existence of sign changes in both of these cases is related to the Riemann hypothesis. Using both analytic and computational methods, we investigate similar problems for the more general family $L_{\alpha }(x)$, where $0\leq \alpha \leq 1$, and their relationship to the Riemann hypothesis and other properties of the zeros of the Riemann zeta function. The case where $\alpha =1/2$is of particular interest.

Abstract We prove the logarithmic Sarnak conjecture for sequences of subquadratic word growth. In particular, we show that the Liouville function has at least quadratically many sign patterns. We deduce the main theorem from a variant which bounds the correlations between multiplicative functions and sequences with subquadratically many words which occur with positive logarithmic density. This allows us to actually prove that our multiplicative functions do not locally correlate with sequences of subquadratic word growth. We also prove a conditional result which shows that if the ( $\kappa -1$ )-Fourier uniformity conjecture holds then the Liouville function does not correlate with sequences with $O(n^{t-\varepsilon })$ many words of length n where $t = \kappa (\kappa +1)/2$ . We prove a variant of the $1$ -Fourier uniformity conjecture where the frequencies are restricted to any set of box dimension less than $1$ .

AbstractConditionally comonotonic risk vectors have been proved in [4] to yield worst case dependence structures maximizing the risk of the portfolio sum in partially specified risk factor models. In this paper we investigate the question how risk bounds depend on the specification of the pairwise copulas of the risk components Xiwith the systemic risk factor. As basic toolwe introduce a new ordering based on sign changes of the derivatives of copulas. This together with discretization by n-grids and the theory of supermodular transfers allows us to derive concrete ordering criteria for the maximal risks.

We investigate the classical Pólya and Turán conjectures in the context of rational function fields over finite fields 𝔽q. Related to these two conjectures we investigate the sign of truncations of Dirichlet L-functions at point s=1 corresponding to quadratic characters over 𝔽q[t], prove a variant of a theorem of Landau for arbitrary sets of monic, irreducible polynomials over 𝔽q[t] and calculate the mean value of certain variants of the Liouville function over 𝔽q[t].

Let f be an even integral weight, normalized, cuspidal Hecke eigenform over SL2(ℤ) with Fourier coefficients a(n). Let j be a positive integer. We prove that for almost all primes p the sequence (a(pjn))n≥0 has infinitely many sign changes. We also obtain a similar result for any cusp form with real Fourier coefficients that provide the characteristic polynomial of some generalized Hecke operator is irreducible over ℚ.
