Measure Theoretic Aspects of Oscillations of Error Terms

Abstract

We consider fluctuations of error terms $Δ(x)$ appearing in the asymptotic formula for a summatory function of coefficients of the Dirichlet series. These are quantified via $Ω$ and $Ω_{\pm}$ estimates. We obtain $Ω$ bounds for Lebesgue measure of the sets $$\{T\leq x \leq 2T: Δ(x)>λx^α\} \text{ and } \{T\leq x \leq 2T: Δ(x)< -λx^α\}$$ for some $α, λ>0$. Primary aim of this article is to develop a general framework to approach these problems. We rediscover several classical results in general setting with weak assumptions. Moreover, several applications of these methods have been discussed and new results have been obtained for some Dirichlet series.

Asymptotic density of k-almost primes

Landau's well known asymptotic formula $$N_k(x):=\ \mid\{n\leq x : Ω(n)=k\}\mid \ \sim \left( \frac{x}{\log x} \right) \frac{(\log\log x)^{k-1}}{(k - 1)!}\ \ (x \rightarrow \infty),$$ which also holds for $$π_k(x):=\ \mid\{n\leq x : ω(n)=k\}\mid,$$ is known to be fairly poor for $k > 1$, and when $k$ is allowed to tend to infinity with $x$, the study of $N_k(x)$ and $π_k(x)$ becomes very technical [1, Chapter II.6, $§$ 6.1, p.200]. I hope to show that the method described below provides not only a more accurate approach, but rather increases in its asymptotic accuracy as $k$ tends to infinity.

Real quadratic base changes for $\mathrm{GL}_3$ and integral periods relations

We prove a $p$-adic divisibility between the automorphic periods of a cuspidal automorphic representation of $\mathrm{GL}_3(\mathbb{Q})$ and the periods of its Arthur-Clozel's base change to some real quadratic field $E$. This generalizes earlier works of Tilouine-Urban and of Hida in the case of classical modular forms. The divisibility we prove involves a new kind of automorphic periods, defined using the middle degree of the cuspidal cohomology of $\mathrm{GL}_3(E)$, instead of the top or bottom degrees. We also investigate the Rogawski's stable base change from the quasi-split unitary group $U_E$ associated with $E$ to $\mathrm{GL}_3(E)$. In this situation, we also obtain some results toward a $p$-adic divisibility of automorphic periods.
