We prove that any finite abelian group $G$ contains a collection of not too many subsets with a special structure, so that for every subset $A$ of $G$ with a small doubling, there is a member $F$ of the collection that is fully contained in…
Numerical semigroups are cofinite additive submonoids of the natural numbers. In 2011, Keith and Nath illustrated an injection from numerical semigroups to integer partitions. We explore this connection between partitions and numerical…
The greatest integer that does not belong to $S$ is the Frobenius number of $S$ and denoted by $F(S)$. To solve the Frobenius problem means the study to find $F(S)$. The Frobenius problem have treated steadily for a long time. In this…
Let $a_1,a_2,\dots,a_k$ be positive integers with $\gcd(a_1,a_2,\dots,a_k)=1$. Frobenius number is the largest positive integer that is NOT representable in terms of $a_1,a_2,\dots,a_k$. When $k\ge 3$, there is no explicit formula in…
We study four (families of) sets of algebraic integers of degree less than or equal to three. Apart from being simply defined, we show that they share two distinctive characteristics: almost uniformity and arithmetical independence. Here,…
For a graph $G=(V,E)$, a set $S \subseteq V$ is a $[1,2]$-set if it is a dominating set for $G$ and each vertex $v \in V \setminus S$ is dominated by at most two vertices of $S$, i.e. $1 \leq \vert N(v) \cap S \vert \leq 2$. Moreover a set…
We study the number of $k$-element sets $A \subset \{1,\ldots,N\}$ with $|A + A| \leq K|A|$ for some (fixed) $K > 0$. Improving results of the first author and of Alon, Balogh, Samotij and the second author, we determine this number up to a…
We prove that for every nonempty set $\Sigma$ of integers bigger than $1$, which has at most three elements, there exists a numerical semigroup $T$ and an element $x$ of $T$ such that a natural number $n$ is the number of atoms in a…
Sidon sets are those sets such that the sums of two of its elements never coincide. They go back to the 30s when Sidon asked for the maximal size of a subset of consecutive integers with that property. This question is now answered in a…
It is well known that the set of algebraic numbers (let us call it $A$) is countable. In this paper, instead of the usage of the classical terminology of cardinals proposed by Cantor, a recently introduced methodology using \G1-based…
A numerical set $S$ is a cofinite subset of $\mathbb{N}$ which contains $0$. We use the natural bijection between numerical sets and Young diagrams to define a numerical set $\widetilde{S}$, such that their Young diagrams are complements.…
The purpose of the article is to provide an unified way to formulate zero-sum invariants. Let $G$ be a finite additive abelian group. Let $B(G)$ denote the set consisting of all nonempty zero-sum sequences over G. For $\Omega \subset B(G$),…
A systematics of the atomic nuclei in the frame of the nucleon number $A = Z + N$ and the proton-neutron difference $F = Z - N$ is considered. The classification scheme is provided by means of the non-compact algebra $sp(4,R)$. In this…
We analyze the set of increasingly enumerable additive submonoids of R, for instance, the set of logarithms of the positive integers with respect to a given base. We call them $\omega$-monoids. The $\omega$-monoids for which consecutive…
This paper is an erratum to our paper, entitled "On an application of Guth-Katz theorem", Math. Res. Lett. 18 (2011), no. 4, 691-697. Let $F$ be the real or complex field and $\omega$ a non-degenerate skew-symmetric bilinear form in the…
For given positive integers $a_1,a_2,\dots,a_k$ with $\gcd(a_1,a_2,\dots,a_k)=1$, the denumerant $d(n)=d(n;a_1,a_2,\dots,a_k)$ is the number of nonnegative solutions $(x_1,x_2,\dots,x_k)$ of the linear equation $a_1 x_1+a_2 x_2+\dots+a_k…
A set of proper subgroups is a covering for a group if its union is the whole group. The minimal number of subgroups needed to cover $G$ is called the covering number of $G$, denoted by $\sigma(G)$. Determining $\sigma(G)$ is an open…
Given a finite Borel measure $\mu$ on R n and basic semi-algebraic sets $\Omega$\_i $\subset$ R n , i = 1,. .. , p, we provide a systematic numerical scheme to approximate as closely as desired $\mu$(\cup\_i $\Omega$\_i), when all moments…
We study the number of $s$-element subsets $J$ of a given abelian group $G$, such that $|J+J|\leq K|J|$. Proving a conjecture of Alon, Balogh, Morris and Samotij, and improving a result of Green and Morris, who proved the conjecture for $K$…
We consider the statistical problem of `compressive' estimation of low rank states with random basis measurements, where the estimation error is expressed terms of two metrics - the Frobenius norm and quantum infidelity. It is known that…
