We consider the periodic dispersion generalized Benjamin-Ono equations with polynomial nonlinearity. We establish the nonlinear smoothing properties of these equations, according to which the difference between the solution and the linear…

For given set of $m$ positive numbers satisfying the conditions: $$ a_1 \geq a_2 \geq , ... \geq a_m \geq 0, $$ the inequality $$ \sum_{s=1}^{m} (-1)^{s-1}a^r_s \geq \left[ \sum_{s=1}^{m} (-1)^{s-1}a_s\right]^r, \quad r > 1, $$ was proved…

Ailon and Rudnick have shown that if $a,b \in C[T]$ are multiplicatively independent polynomials, then $\deg(\gcd(a^n-1,b^n-1))$ is bounded for all $n\ge1$. We show that if instead $a,b \in F[T]$ for a finite field $F$ of characteristic…

We make further progress towards a Kneser-type generalization of Pollard's Theorem to general abelian groups. For two sets $A$ and $B$ in an abelian group $G$, the \emph{$t$-popular sumset} of $A$ and $B$, denoted by $A+_t B$, is the set of…

Each family of Gauss hypergeometric functions $$ f_n={}_2F_1(a+\epsilon_1n, b+\epsilon_2n ;c+\epsilon_3n; z), $$ for fixed $\epsilon_j=0,\pm1$ (not all $\epsilon_j$ equal to zero) satisfies a second order linear difference equation of the…

Let $\mathcal{N}[k]$ be the multiset containing the $\binom{n-1}{k}$ products of $k$-subsets of $\{1,\ldots, n-1\}$. We show that if $n\geq (2c+3)^2$, then \begin{gather*}\left((-1)^c+\sum_{M\in \mathcal{N}[n-1-c]}M\right)\cdot(c+1)\equiv…

For a nonempty finite set $A$ of positive integers, let $\gcd\left(A\right)$ denote the greatest common divisor of the elements of $A$. Let $f\left(n\right)$ and $\Phi\left(n\right)$ denote, respectively, the number of subsets $A$ of…

The generalized Fibonacci recurrence $g_n=g_{n-k}+g_{n-m}$ was recently used to demonstrate the theoretically optimal nature of limited senescence in morphologically symmetrically dividing bacteria. Here, we study this recurrence from a…

We show that if two monic polynomials with integer coefficients have square-free resultant, then all positive divisors of the resultant arise as the greatest common divisor of the values of the two polynomials at a suitable integer.

For fixed weights w_1,...,w_n, and for d>0, we let B denote a collection of d*n balls, with d balls of weight w_i for each i=1,...,n. We consider the problem of assigning the balls to n bins with capacities C_1,...,C_n, in such a way that…

The known facts about solvability of equations over groups are considered from a more general point of view. A generalized version of the theorem about solvability of unimodular equations over torsion-free groups is proved. In a special…
