Montgomery's conjecture and lower bound on certain Fourier transform.
Recently I have come across the following question, while meditating about Matt Young's answer to this question of mine, explaining the heuristic (or at least, one possible heuristic) behind ...

Can we extend the twisted Poisson Summation formula with functions having a singularity in zero?
The following "twisted" Poisson Summation formula for $\chi$ primitive of conductor $q$ :
$$ \sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}}\chi(n)f\left(\frac{nx}{\sqrt{q}}\right) =
\frac{A}{x}\sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}}\bar\chi(n)...

Minimizing vertical integral of a Mellin transform
Let $\eta:[0,\infty)\to [0,\infty)$ satisfy $\eta(0)=1$ and $\int_0^\infty \eta(x) dx = 1$ (say).
Write $M\eta$ for the Mellin transform of $\eta$. Let $\epsilon>0$ be small.
What is the choice of $...

Green-Tao's "Polylogarithmic bound for $r_4(N)$"
On P.23 of https://arxiv.org/pdf/1705.01703.pdf, they seemed to suggest that by the non-negativity of $\psi\big(\frac{k}{N}\big)$ for all $k$,

Uncertainty principle: minimize $\int_{-\infty}^\infty |t| |\widehat{f}(t)|^2 dt$ for $f$ of compact support
This is a question of uncertainty-principle type stemming from Eigenvalue of a convolution and a restriction?
Let $f:\mathbb{R}\to \mathbb{R}$ be even, absolutely continuous and supported in $[-\frac{...

Three optimization problems of uncertainty principle/Paley-Wiener type
Let $\phi:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ be an even function with support on $[-1,1]$. Assume that it is in $L^1\cap L^2$ and that its Fourier transform is also in $L^1\cap L^2$. Assume as well that $|\phi|...

For $\Phi$ a majorant of $1_{[-1/2,1/2]}$, how small can the total variation of $\widehat\Phi$ be?
Let $\Phi:\mathbb{R}\to \mathbb{R}$ be a real-valued, symmetric, non-negative function such that $\Phi(t)\geq 1$ for $|t|\leq 1/2$. Assume furthermore that $\Phi$ and $\widehat\Phi$ are both in $L^1\...
