In this expositional paper, we discuss commutative algebra -- a study inspired by the properties of integers, rational numbers, and real numbers. In particular, we investigate rings and ideals, and their various properties. After, we…

Subresultant is a powerful tool for developing various algorithms in computer algebra. Subresultants for polynomials in standard basis (i.e., power basis) have been well studied so far. With the popularity of basis-preserving algorithms,…

We show that if $A=\{a_1,a_2,..., a_k\}$ is a monotone increasing set of numbers, and the differences of the consecutive elements are all distinct, then $|A+B|\geq c|A|^{1/2}|B|$ for any finite set of numbers $B$. The bound is tight up to…

A fundamental theorem of linear algebra asserts that every basis for the vector space $\mathbb{R}^n$ has $n$ elements. In this expository note we present a theorem of W. G. Leavitt describing one way in which this invariant basis number…

We prove a generalization of the author's work to show that any subset of the primes which is `well-distributed' in arithmetic progressions contains many primes which are close together. Moreover, our bounds hold with some uniformity in the…

We establish a necessary condition for pseudoprimality and a sufficient condition for primality of Fermat numbers, based on a congruence involving the exponent $(F_n-1)/4$. Moreover, in connection with P\'epin's primality test, we obtain a…

We propose a novel foundation for calculus that focuses on the notion of approximations while avoiding the use of limits altogether. Continuity is defined as approximation at a point, while differentiability is defined as approximation with…

Professor Georges Rhin considers a nonzero algebraic integer $\a$ with conjugates $\a_1=\a, \ldots, \a_d$ and asks what can be said about $\d \sum_{ | \a_i | >1} | \a_i |$, that we denote ${\rm{R}}(\a)$. If $\a$ is supposed to be a totally…

In this paper, we prove a finite basis theorem for radical well-mixed difference ideals generated by binomials. As a consequence, every strictly ascending chain of radical well-mixed difference ideals generated by binomials in a difference…

We obtain a new lower bound on the largest Sidon subset of an arbitrary finite set of integers. If $H(n)$ denotes the minimum, over all $n$-element subsets of $\mathbb Z$, of the largest Sidon subset they contain, we prove that $H(n)…

Let G be a finitely generated free, free abelian of arbitrary exponent, free nilpotent, or free solvable group, or a free group in the variety A_mA_n, and let A = {a_1,..., a_r} be a basis for G. We prove that, in most cases, if S is a…

The defect of valued field extensions is a major obstacle in open problems in resolution of singularities and in the model theory of valued fields, whenever positive characteristic is involved. We continue the detailed study of defect…

Some PARI programs have bringed out a property for the non-genus part of the class number of the imaginary quadratic fields, with respect to $(\sqrt D\,)^{\varepsilon}$, where $D$ is the absolute value of the discriminant and $\varepsilon…

We present a new set of basis functions for H(curl)-conforming, H(div)-conforming, and L2 -conforming finite elements of arbitrary order on a tetrahedron. The basis functions are expressed in terms of Bernstein polynomials and augment the…

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…

One of the fundamental problem in the theory of sorting is to find the pessimistic number of comparisons sufficient to sort a given number of elements. Currently 16 is the lowest number of elements for which we do not know the exact value.…

In this note we construct a series of small subsets containing a non-d-th power element in a finite field by applying certain bounds on incomplete character sums. Precisely, let $h=\lfloor q^{\delta}\rfloor>1$ and $d\mid q^h-1$. Let $r$ be…

We define the notion of componentwise regularity and study some of its basic properties. We prove an analogue, when working with weight orders, of Buchberger's criterion to compute Gr\"obner bases; the proof of our criterion relies on a…

We study the ultra-radical $\sqrt[{n;a;b}]{x}$, the multi-valued solution to $y^{a}=1+a x y^{b}$. Inside the convergence radius $|x|<R$, every branch is given by a Master-J power series; for $|x|\ge R$, analytic continuation requires…

Let $\eta_{g}(n) $ be the smallest cardinality that $A\subseteq {\mathbb Z}$ can have if $A$ is a $g$-difference basis for $[n]$ (i.e, if, for each $x\in [n]$, there are {\em at least} $g$ solutions to $a_{1}-a_{2}=x$ ). We prove that the…
