We consider the equality of the values of the $n$th and $k$th elementary symmetric polynomials of $n$ not necessarily distinct positive integers. For $k < n$, we prove that this equation always has a solution, but only finitely many…
Consider a random simplex $[X_1,\ldots,X_n]$ defined as the convex hull of independent identically distributed random points $X_1,\ldots,X_n$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n-1}$ with the following beta density: $$ f_{n-1,\beta} (x) \propto…
We consider random trigonometric polynomials of the form \[ f_n(t):=\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}} \sum_{k=1}^{n}a_k \cos(k t)+b_k \sin(k t), \] where $(a_k)_{k\geq 1}$ and $(b_k)_{k\geq 1}$ are two independent stationary Gaussian processes with the…
Let $f$ be a transcendental meromorphic function in the complex plane $\mathbb{C}$, and $a$ be a nonzero complex number . We give quantitative estimates for the characteristic function $T(r,f)$ in terms of $N(r,1/(f^l(f^{(k)})^n-a))$, for…
Let $H_n$ be the $n$-th harmonic number and let $v_n$ be its denominator. It is well known that $v_n$ is even for every integer $n\ge 2$. In this paper, we study the properties of $v_n$. One of our results is: the set of positive integers…
Every k entries in a permutation can have one of k! different relative orders, called patterns. How many times does each pattern occur in a large random permutation of size n? The distribution of this k!-dimensional vector of pattern…

We investigate here the representability of integers as sums of triangular numbers, where the $n$-th triangular number is given by $T_n = n(n + 1)/2$. In particular, we show that $f(x_1,x_2,..., x_k) = b_1 T_{x_1} +...+ b_k T_{x_k}$, for…
We generalize the polynomial Szemer\'{e}di theorem to intersective polynomials over the ring of integers of an algebraic number field, by which we mean polynomials having a common root modulo every ideal. This leads to the existence of new…
The relationship between a stable multivariable polynomial $p(z)$ and the Fourier coefficients of its spectral density function $1/|p(z)|^2$, is further investigated. In this paper we focus on the radial asymptotics of the Fourier…
