In this paper, we study upper bounds for the degrees of polynomials with only rational roots. First, we assume that the coefficients are bounded. In the second theorem, we suppose that the primes 2 and 3 do not divide any coefficient. The third theorem concerns the case that all coefficients are composed of primes from a fixed finite set.

In the present paper, the author adopts a pretentious approach and recovers an estimate obtained by Linnik for the sums of the von Mangoldt function Λ on arithmetic progressions. It is the analogue of an estimate that Linnik established in his attempt to prove his celebrated theorem concerning the size of the smallest prime number of an arithmetic progression. Our work builds on ideas coming from the pretentious large sieve of Granville, Harper, and Soundararajan and it also borrows insights from the treatment of Koukoulopoulos on multiplicative functions with small averages.

We develop an information-theoretic approach to study the Kneser–Poulsen conjecture in discrete geometry. This leads us to a broad question regarding whether Rényi entropies of independent sums decrease when one of the summands is contracted by a 1-Lipschitz map. We answer this question affirmatively in various cases.

We prove several dimension formulas for spaces of scalar-valued Siegel modular forms of degree 2 with respect to certain congruence subgroups of level 4. In case of cusp forms, all modular forms considered originate from cuspidal automorphic representations of
