In this note, we continue to highlight some applications of Theorem 1 of [3]. Here is a sample: Let $X$ be an open set in ${\bf C}^n$, $\Omega$ an open convex set in ${\bf C}$ and $f, g : X\to {\bf C}$ two holomorphic functions such that…

In this paper Euler shows how, if we have recursive functions f,g,h and an infinite sequence A,B,C,... which satisfies fA=gB+hC, f'B=g'C+h'D, f''C=g''D+h''E, f'''D=g'''E+h'''F, etc., where the primes denote an index not a derivative, then…

Let $k,a\in \mathbb{N}$ and let $p_1,\cdots,p_k\in \mathbb{Q}[n]$ with zero constant term. We show that for any finite coloring of $\mathbb{Q}$, there are non-zero $x,y\in \mathbb{Q}$ such that there exists a color which contains a set of…

Let $A \subseteq \{0,1,\dots,N\}$ be a random set in which each element is included independently with probability $p=p(N)$. Fix an integer $h \geq 2$ and a linear form $$L(x_1,\dots,x_h) := u_1x_1 + \cdots + u_hx_h.$$ We study the random…

For a function $\varphi$ in $L^2(0,1)$, extended to the whole real line as an odd periodic function of period 2, we ask when the collection of dilates $\varphi(nx)$, $n=1,2,3,\ldots$, constitutes a Riesz basis or a complete sequence in…

In this paper we derive an explicit formula for the number of representations of an integer by the sextenary form x^2+y^2+z^2+ 7s^2+7t^2+ 7u^2. We establish the following intriguing inequalities 2b(n)>=a_7(n)>=b(n) for n not equal to…

Let $A$ be a finite multiset of integers. If $B$ be a multiset such that $A$ and $B$ are $t$-complementing multisets of integers, then $B$ is periodic. We obtain the Biro-type upper bound for the smallest such period of $B$: Let…

In 1996, Michaux and Villemaire considered integer relations $R$ which are not definable in Presburger Arithmetic. That is, not definable in first-order logic over integers with the addition function and the order relation…

We introduce unitary representations of continuous groupoids on continuous fields of Hilbert spaces. We investigate some properties of these objects and discuss some of the standard constructions from representation theory in this…

We study the theory of a Hilbert space H as a module for a unital C*-algebra A from the point of view of continuous logic. We give an explicit axiomatization for this theory and describe the structure of all the representations which are…

For a semibounded sesquilinear form ${\mathfrak t}$ in a Hilbert space ${\mathfrak H}$ there exists a representing map $Q$ from ${\mathfrak H}$ to another Hilbert space ${\mathfrak K}$, such that ${\mathfrak t}[\varphi, \psi]-c(\varphi,…

If a function $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ can be represented as the sum of $n$ periodic functions as $f=f_1+\dots+f_n$ with $f(x+\alpha_j)=f(x)$ ($j=1,\dots,n$), then it also satisfies a corresponding $n$-order difference equation…

By using the space of fuzzy numbers, in e.g. [5] have been considered several complete metric spaces (called here {\bf FN}-type spaces) endowed with addition and scalar multiplication, such that the metrics have nice properties but the…

This paper presents analogous results of Hua [7][8] on numbers of representations of quivers over finite fields which respect nilpotent relations under certain assumptions. A closed formula which counts isomorphism classes of absolutely…

Let $k\ge 1,a\ge 1,b\ge 0$ and $ c\ge 1$ be integers. Let $f$ be a multiplicative function with $f(n)\ne 0$ for all positive integers $n$. We define the arithmetic function $g_{k,f}$ for any positive integer $n$ by…

A new class of 2-orthogonal polynomials satisfying orthogonality conditions with respect to a pair of linear functionals $(u_0,u_1)$ was presented in Douak K & Maroni P [On a new class of 2-orthogonal polynomials, I: the recurrence…

A piecewise linear function can be described in different forms: as an arbitrarily nested expression of $\min$- and $\max$-functions, as a difference of two convex piecewise linear functions, or as a linear combination of maxima of…

We extend our previous results on the number of integers which are values of some cyclotomic form of degree larger than a given value (see \cite{FW1}), to more general families of binary forms with integer coefficients. Our main ingredient…

We study a reconstruction problem for colorings. Given a finite or countable set $X$, a coloring on $X$ is a function $\varphi: [X]^{2}\to \{0,1\}$, where $[X]^{2}$ is the collection of all 2-elements subsets of $X$. A set $H\subseteq X$ is…

In this paper, we show that if $(U_n)_{n\ge 1}$ is any nondegenerate linearly recurrent sequence of integers whose general term is up to sign not a polynomial in $n$, then the inequality $\phi(|U_n|)\ge |U_{\phi(n)}|$ holds on a set of…
