We use the theory of motivic integration in order to give a geometric explanation of the behavior of some p-adic integrals.

We show that the $p$-adic valuation of the sequence of Fibonacci numbers is a $p$-regular sequence for every prime $p$. For $p \neq 2, 5$, we determine that the rank of this sequence is $\alpha(p) + 1$, where $\alpha(m)$ is the restricted…

A labelling of a graph is an assignment of labels to its vertex or edge sets (or both), subject to certain conditions, a well established concept. A labelling of a graph G of order n is termed a numbering when the set of integers {1,...,n}…

The number of $n \times n$ matrices whose entries are either -1, 0, or 1, whose row- and column- sums are all 1, and such that in every row and every column the non-zero entries alternate in sign, is proved to be $[1!4! >...…

$O(N)$ invariants are the observables of real tensor models. We use regular colored graphs to represent these invariants, the valence of the vertices of the graphs relates to the tensor rank. We enumerate $O(N)$ invariants as $d$-regular…

We study pairs of consecutive odd numbers through a straightforward indexing. We focus in particular on twin primes and their distribution. With a counting argument, we calculate the limit of an alternating sum that is equal to 1 which…

We consider the set of alternating paths on a fixed fully packed loop of size n. This set is in bijection with the set of fully packed loops of size n. Furthermore, for a special choice of fully packed loop, we demonstrate that the set of…

We consider the symmetric multiple zeta values in $\mathcal{S}_m$ without modulo $\pi^2$ reduction for indices in which $1$ and $3$ appear alternately. We investigate those values that can be expressed as a polynomial of the Riemann zeta…

We prove a conjecture of Cohn and Propp, which refines a conjecture of Bosley and Fidkowski about the symmetry of the set of alternating sign matrices (ASMs). We examine data arising from the representation of an ASM as a collection of…

In 2007, the first author gave an alternative proof of the refined alternating sign matrix theorem by introducing a linear equation system that determines the refined ASM numbers uniquely. Computer experiments suggest that the numbers…

Extending work of Bell and of Bell, Ghioca, and Tucker, we prove that for a p-adic analytic self-map f on a closed unit polydisk, if every coefficient of f(x)-x has valuation greater than that of p^{1/(p-1)}, then the iterates of f can be…

We study p-adic counterparts of stable distributions, that is limit distributions for sequences of normalized sums of independent identically distributed p-adic-valued random variables. In contrast to the classical case, non-degenerate…

Pairwise comparison matrices often exhibit inconsistency, therefore many indices have been suggested to measure their deviation from a consistent matrix. A set of axioms has been proposed recently that is required to be satisfied by any…

We use the grid consisting of bits of 3^n to motivate the definition of 2-adic numbers. Specifically, we exhibit diagonal stripes in the bits of 3^(2^n), which turn out to be the first in an infinite sequence of such structures. Our…

We estimate the frequency of singular matrices and of matrices of a given rank whose entries are parametrised by arbitrary polynomials over the integers and modulo a prime $p$. In particular, in the integer case, we improve a recent bound…

A matrix $A$ is totally positive (or non-negative) of order $k$, denoted $TP_k$ (or $TN_k$), if all minors of size $\leq k$ are positive (or non-negative). It is well-known that such matrices are characterized by the variation diminishing…

Some p-adic series with factorials are considered.

In [2], I constructed the p-adic q-integral on Zp. In this paper, we consider the properties of the p-adic invariant p-adic q-integral in the ring of p-adic integers at q=-1. Finally we give the some applications of p-adic q-integration at…

In this paper, we study some supercongruences involving the sequence $$ t_n(x)=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom{n}{k}\binom{x}{k}\binom{x+k}{k}2^k $$ and solve some open problems. For any odd prime $p$ and $p$-adic integer $x$, we determine…
