In the article, a notion "logarithmically absolutely monotonic function" is introduced, an inclusion that a logarithmically absolutely monotonic function is also absolutely monotonic is revealed, the logarithmically complete monotonicity…

Let $\omega(n)$ denote the number of distinct prime factors of $n$. Assuming a suitably uniform version of the prime $k$-tuples conjecture, we show that the number \begin{align*} \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{\omega(n)}{2^n} \end{align*} is…

For a field $K$, and a root $\alpha$ of an irreducible polynomial over $K$ (in some algebraic closure) the number of roots of $f(x)$ lying in $K(\alpha)$ is studied here. Given such an $f(x)$ of degree $n$ for which $r$ of the roots are i n…

A classical problem in analytic number theory is to study the distribution of fractional part $\alpha p+\beta$ modulo 1, where $\alpha$ is irrational and $p$ runs over the set of primes. We consider the subsequence generated by the primes…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero, let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group over $k$ and let $\mathfrak{g}$ be its Lie algebra. Let $k(G)$, respectively, $k(\mathfrak{g})$, be the field of $k$-rational functions on $G$,…

Let $(a_n)_{n\geq 0}$ be an arbitrary sequence and $(a_{\lfloor n/k \rfloor})_{n\geq 0}$ its dual floor sequence. We study infinite series and finite generalized binomial sums involving $(a_{\lfloor n/k \rfloor})_{n\geq 0}$. As applications…

It follows from the Golod--Shafarevich theorem that if R is an associative algebra given by n generators and $d<\frac{n^2}{4}\cos^{-2}(\frac{\pi}{k+1})$ quadratic relations, then R is not k-step nilpotent. We show that the above estimate is…

We construct a Dirac morphism and prove that if this Dirac morphism is invertible, then the isomorphism conjecture for non-connective algebraic K-theory holds true.

Let G be a connected linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field k, and let H be a connected closed subgroup of G. We prove that the homogeneous variety G/H is a rational variety over k whenever H is solvable, or when dim(G/H)…

Motivated by questions on the ranges of commutators of dilated floor functions and one posed in Problem 27327 from Gazeta Matematic\u{a}, we investigate the precise ranges of certain generalized polynomials depending on a real parameter and…

Let $(\alpha,\mathcal{N}_{\alpha})$ and $(\beta,\mathcal{N}_{\beta})$ be two canonical number systems for an imaginary quadratic number field $K$ such that $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are multiplicatively independent. We provide an effective lower…

We show that various aspects of k-automatic sequences -- such as having an unbordered factor of length n -- are both decidable and effectively enumerable. As a consequence it follows that many related sequences are either k-automatic or…

Let $\mathbb K$ be a perfect field of characterstic $p\ge 0$ and let $R\in \mathbb K(x)$ be a rational function. This paper studies the number $\Delta_{\alpha, R}(n)$ of distinct solutions of $R^{(n)}(x)=\alpha$ over the algebraic closure…

Let $k({\bf x})=k(x_1,\ldots ,x_n)$ be the rational function field, and $k\subsetneqq L\subsetneqq k({\bf x})$ an intermediate field. Then, Hilbert's fourteenth problem asks whether the $k$-algebra $A:=L\cap k[x_1,\ldots ,x_n]$ is finitely…

A graph construction that produces a k-regular graph on n vertices for any choice of k >= 3 and n = m(k+1) for integer m >= 2 is described. The number of Hamiltonian cycles in such graphs can be explicitly determined as a function of n and…

In this paper we continue work in the direction of a characterization of rational period functions on the Hecke groups. We examine the role that Hecke-symmetry of poles plays in this setting, and pay particular attention to non-symmetric…

We introduce and study the number of tilings of unit height rectangles with irrational tiles. We prove that the class of sequences of these numbers coincides with the class of diagonals of N-rational generating functions and a class of…

In this paper we work with a series whose coefficients are the Euler characteristic of Chow varieties of a given projective variety. For varieties where the Cox ring is defined, it is easy to see that in this case the ring associated to the…

We prove the existence of a Quillen Flat Model Structure in the category of unbounded complexes of h-unitary modules over a nonunital ring (or a $k$-algebra, with $k$ a field). This model structure provides a natural framework where a…

An Introduction to Hopf algebras as a tool for the regularization of relavent quantities in quantum field theory is given. We deform algebraic spaces by introducing q as a regulator of a non-commutative and non-cocommutative Hopf algebra.…
