Let $R$ be a commutative ring that is free of rank $k$ as an abelian group, $p$ a prime, and $SL(n,R)$ the special linear group. We show that the Lie algebra associated to the filtration of $SL(n,R)$ by $p$-congruence subgroups is…

In homotopy type theory, a natural number type is freely generated by an element and an endomorphism. Similarly, an integer type is freely generated by an element and an automorphism. Using only dependent sums, identity types, extensional…

Binary jumbled pattern matching asks to preprocess a binary string $S$ in order to answer queries $(i,j)$ which ask for a substring of $S$ that is of length $i$ and has exactly $j$ 1-bits. This problem naturally generalizes to…

Given a pair of distinct non-CM normalized eigenforms having integer Fourier coefficients $a_1 (n)$ and $a_2(n)$, we count positive integers $n$ with $(a_1(n), a_2(n))=1$ and make a conjecture about the density of the set of primes $p$ for…

Many fundamental questions in additive number theory (such as Goldbach's conjecture, Fermat's last theorem, and the Twin Primes conjecture) can be expressed in the language of sum and difference sets. As a typical pair of elements…

The investigation of primes in certain arithmetic sequences is one of the fundamental problems in number theory and especially, finding blocks of distinct primes has gained a lot of attention in recent years. In this context, we prove the…

We show that, for any $r\geq 1$, if $g_1,\ldots,g_r$ are distinct coprime integers, sufficiently large depending only on $r$, then for any $\epsilon>0$ there are infinitely many integers $n$ such that all but $\epsilon \log n$ of the digits…

In this article, we study $(\sigma, \tau)$-derivations of number rings by considering them as commutative unital $\mathbb{Z}$-algebras. We begin by characterizing all $(\sigma, \tau)$-derivations and inner $(\sigma, \tau)$-derivations of…

An m-extracting procedure produces unbiased random bits from a loaded dice with m faces. A binarization takes inputs from an m-faced dice and produce bit sequences to be fed into a (binary) extracting procedure to obtain random bits. Thus,…

We study "positive" graphs that have a nonnegative homomorphism number into every edge-weighted graph (where the edgeweights may be negative). We conjecture that all positive graphs can be obtained by taking two copies of an arbitrary…

We address the enumeration of coprime polynomial pairs over $\F_2$ where both polynomials have a nonzero constant term, motivated by the construction of orthogonal Latin squares via cellular automata. To this end, we leverage on Benjamin…

Fix a positive integer $N$ and a real number $0< \beta < 1/(N+1)$. Let $\Gamma$ be the homogeneous symmetric Cantor set generated by the IFS $$ \Big\{ \phi_i(x)=\beta x + i \frac{1-\beta}{N}: i=0,1,\cdots, N \Big\}. $$ For…

This paper presents a formalization of the theory of amicable numbers in the Lean~4 proof assistant. Two positive integers $m$ and $n$ are called an amicable pair if the sum of proper divisors of $m$ equals $n$ and the sum of proper…

We define a unified trace form $\tau$ on the cyclotomic Hecke algebras $\mathscr{H}_{n,K}$ of type $A$, which generalize both Malle-Mathas' trace form on the non-degenerate version (with Hecke parameter $\xi\neq 1$) and Brundan-Kleshchev's…

Several sequences of free cumulants that count binary plane trees correspond to sequences of classical cumulants that count the decreasing versions of the same trees. Using two new operations on colored binary plane trees that we call…

Given a set $A=\{(i_1,j_1),\ldots,(i_m,j_m)\}$ we say that $(a_1,\ldots,a_v)$ exhibits pairwise coprimality if $\gcd(a_i,a_j) = 1$ for all $(i,j)\in A$. For a given positive $x$ we give an asymptotic formula for the number of…

This work introduces a new class of symmetric matrix structures, called harmonic structures, which enable the generation of all possible directed transitions $(x_i, x_{i+1})$ over a set of $n$ symbols, without internal repetitions. Unlike…

By the classical result of Milnor and Novikov, the unitary cobordism ring is isomorphic to a graded polynomial ring with countably many generators: $\Omega^U_*\simeq \mathbb Z[a_1,a_2,\dots]$, ${\rm deg}(a_i)=2i$. In this paper we solve a…

A zero-one sequence describes a path through a rooted directed binary tree $T$; it also encodes a real number in $[0,1]$. We regard the level of the external node of $T$ along the path as a function on the unit interval, the silhouette of…

Suppose $ m,n\geq 2 $ are co prime integers. We prove certain new symmetries of the base $ n $ representation of $ 1/m $, and in particular characterize the subgroup generated by $ n $ inside $ (\mathbb{Z}/m\mathbb{Z})^\times $. As an…
