In this talk, I will discuss new bounds on constrained sets of fractions. Specifically, I will discuss the answer to the following question, which arises in several areas of number theory: For an integer $k\geq2$, consider the set of $k$-tuples of reduced fractions $\frac{a1}{q1} , . . . , \frac{ak}{qk} \in I$, where $I$ is an interval around 0. How many $k$-tuples are there with $\sum_{i} \frac{ai}{qi} \in \mathbb{Z} $? When $k$ is even, the answer is well-known: the main contribution to the number of solutions comes from “diagonal” terms, where the fractions $\frac{ai}{qi}$ cancel in pairs. When $k$ is odd, the answer is much more mysterious! In joint work with Bloom, we prove a near-optimal upper bound on this problem when $k$ is odd. I will also discuss applications of this problem to estimating moments of the distributions of primes and reduced residues.[-]

The delta symbol developed by Duke-Friedlander-Iwaniec and Heath-Brown has played an important role in studying rational points on hypersurfaces of low degrees. We present a two dimensional delta symbol and apply it to establish a quantitative Hasse principle for a smooth intersection of two quadratic forms defined over $Q$ in at least ten variables. The goal of these delta symbols is to carry out a (double) Kloosterman refinement of the circle method. This is based on a joint work with Simon Rydin Myerson and Pankaj Vishe.[-]

Let $\lambda$ be the Liouville function, defined by $\lambda(n) = (-1)^{\Omega(n)}$ where $\Omega(n)$ is the number of prime factors of $n$ (with multiplicity). This completely multiplicative Let $\lambda$ be the Liouville function, defined by $\lambda(n)=(-1)^{\Omega(n)}$ where $\Omega(n)$ is the number of prime factors of $n$ (with multiplicity). This completely multiplicative function is believed to exhibit pseudo-random statistical properties. For example, its partial sums are conjectured to obey the square-root cancellation estimate $\sum_{n \leq x} \lambda(n)=O\left(x^{1 / 2+\varepsilon}\right)$; this is equivalent to the Riemann Hypothesis.

The Fourier uniformity conjecture (a close cousin of the Chowla and Sarnak conjectures) concerns the pseudo-random behaviour of the Liouville function in short intervals. In 2023, Walsh proved that, for $\exp \left((\log X)^{1 / 2+\varepsilon}\right) \leq H \leq X$,

$
\sum_{X \lt x \lt 2X} \sup _{\alpha \in \mathbb{R}}\left|\sum_{x\lt n \lt x+H} \lambda(n) e(n \alpha)\right|=o(H X)
$

as $X \rightarrow \infty$. This non-correlation estimate is expected to hold for any $H=H(X)$ tending arbitrarily slowly to infinity with $X$ : this is the Fourier uniformity conjecture.

We improve on Walsh's range, proving that the Fourier uniformity conjecture holds for intervals of length $H \geq \exp \left((\log X)^{2 / 5+\varepsilon}\right)$.[-]

Paul Erdos posed many interesting problems on the irrationality of various infinite series. We give some history and motivation for these problems. We then describe some of our recent work (conditional and unconditional) on these irrationality questions, and the tools from prime number theory we have used.

Following Zhang's breakthrough on bounded gaps between primes, much work has gone into improving upper bounds on the smallest integer which appears infinitely often as the gap between a given number of primes. Equidistribution estimates for primes in certain arithmetic progressions are a key ingredient of Zhang's proof and later work of Polymath. In this talk, I will highlight how bounded gaps and primes in arithmetic progressions are linked, and I will discuss obstacles and recent successes in using various types of old and new equistribution estimates to improve on the results of Polymath for bounded gaps between primes.[-]

Hilbert cubes in arithmetic sets - Elsholtz, Christian (Author of the conference) | CIRM H

Single angle

Let $S$ be a multiplicatively defined set. Ostmann conjectured, that the set of primes cannot be (nontrivially) written as a sumset $P\sim A+B$ (even in an asymptotic sense, when finitely many deviations are allowed). The author had previously proved that there is no such ternary sumset $P\sim A+B+C$ (with $ \left |A \right |,\left |B \right |,\left |C \right |\geq 2$). More generally, in recent work we showed (with A. Harper) for certain multiplicatively defined sets $S$, namely those which can be treated by sieves, or those with some equidistribution condition of Bombieri-Vinogradov type, that again there is no (nontrivial) ternary decomposition $P\sim A+B+C$. As this covers the case of smooth numbers, this settles a conjecture of A.Sárközy.

A cap is a point set in affine or projective space without any three points on any line. We will discuss the current state of
the art, and give an exponential improvement for the size of caps of AG(n, p), which one can think of as (Z/pZ)^n, and PG(n,p). For certain primes, 5,11,17,23,29 and 41, we improve the asymptotic growth of these caps, for example, when p=23 from (8.091...)^n to (9-o(1))^n, as n tends to infinity.
