A positive integer n is said to be perfect if sigma(n)=2n, where sigma denotes the sum of the divisors of n. In this article, we show that if n is an even perfect number, then any integer m<=n is expressed as a sum of some of divisors of n.

It is known that the sum of the reciprocal of integers, $\sum_n (1/n)$, and the sum of the reciprocal of primes, $\sum_n (1/p_n)$, both diverge. Here, we study a series made from primes that sums exactly to 1. We also show this sum is…

The set of prime numbers has been analyzed, based on their algebraic and arithmetical structure. Here by obtaining a sort of linear formula for the set of prime numbers, they are redefined and identified; under a systematic procedure it has…

Uniformly for small $q$ and $(a,q)=1$, we obtain an estimate for the weighted number of ways a sufficiently large integer can be represented as the sum of a prime congruent to $a$ modulo $q$ and a square-free integer. Our method is based on…

In many everyday categories (sets, spaces, modules, ...) objects can be both added and multiplied. The arithmetic of such objects is a challenge because there is usually no subtraction. We prove a family of cases of the following principle:…

We perform certain alternating binomial summations with parameters that occur in the analysis of algorithms. A combination of integral and special function and special number representations is used. The results are sufficiently general to…

For an arbitrary given $k\geq3,$ we consider a possibility of representation of a positive number $n$ by the form $x_1...x_k+x_1+...+x_k, 1\leq x_1\leq ... \leq x_k.$ We also study a question on the smallest value of $k\geq3$ in such a…

Suppose $k$ is a positive integer. In this work, we establish formulas for for the number of representations of integers by the quadratic forms $$ x_{1}^{2}+\cdots+x_{k}^{2}+l\left(x_{k+1}^{2}+\cdots+x_{2k}^{2}\right) $$ for $l\in\{2,4\}$.

In this paper we prove that there exist infinitely many integers which can be expressed as a sum of four cubes of polynomials with integer coefficients. We give several identities that express the integers 1 and 2 as a sum of four cubes of…

In this paper we consider certain quaternary quadratic forms and octonary quadratic forms and by using the theory of modular forms, we find formulae for the number of representations of a positive integer by these quadratic forms.

Polytope numbers for a polytope are a sequence of nonnegative integers that are defined by the facial information of a polytope. Every polygon is triangulable and a higher dimensional analogue of this fact states that every polytope is…

In additive number theory, a finite set $A$ of integers is an $h$-basis for $n$ if every integer in $\{0,1,2,\ldots, n\}$ can be represented as the sum of exactly $h$ not necessarily distinct elements of $A$. This paper introduces a new…

By means of $q$-series, we prove that any natural number is a sum of an even square and two triangular numbers, and that each positive integer is a sum of a triangular number plus $x^2+y^2$ for some integers $x$ and $y$ with $x\not\equiv y…
