A parabolic partial differential equation $u'_t(t,x)=Lu(t,x)$ is considered, where $L$ is a linear second-order differential operator with time-independent coefficients, which may depend on $x$. We assume that the spatial coordinate $x$…

The study of tilings is a major problem in many mathematical instances, which is studied in two main different approaches: when considering the existence (or obstructions to the existence) of a tiling with a given tile and the other…

Let $Q(x,y)$ be a quadratic form with discriminant $D\neq 0$. We obtain non trivial upper bound estimates for the number of solutions of the congruence $Q(x,y)\equiv\lambda \pmod{p}$, where $p$ is a prime and $x,y$ lie in certain intervals…

Given $k$ sets $\mathcal{A}_i \subseteq \mathbb{F}_q^d$ and a non-degenerate bilinear form $B$ in $\mathbb{F}_q^d$. We consider the system of $l \leq \binom{k}{2}$ bilinear equations \[ B (\tmmathbf{a}_i, \tmmathbf{a}_j) = \lambda_{i j},…

Let $F$ be a quadratic form in four variables, let $m\in\mathbb{N}$ and let $\mathbf{k}\in \mathbb{Z}^4$. We count integer solutions to $F(\mathbf{x})=0$ with $\mathbf{x}\equiv \mathbf{k}\:\mathrm{mod}(m)$. One can compare this to the…

It follows from de Bruijn's results that if a continuous or $k$-th order continuously differentiable function $F(x,y)$ is a solution of the Kurepa functional equation, then it can be expressed as $F(x,y)=f(x+y)-f(x)-f(y)$ with the…

A long-standing open problem asks if there can exist 7 mutually unbiased bases (MUBs) in $\mathbb{C}^6$, or, more generally, $d + 1$ MUBs in $\mathbb{C}^d$ for any $d$ that is not a prime power. The recent work of Kolountzakis, Matolcsi,…

Let $F$ be a binary form with integer coefficients, non-zero discriminant and degree $d \geq 3$. Let $R_F(Z)$ denote the number of integers of absolute value at most $Z$ which are represented by $F$. In 2019 Stewart and Xiao proved that…

In this note we consider the title Diophantine equation from both theoretical as well as experimental point of view. In particular, we prove that for $k=4, 6$ and each choice of the signs our equation has infinitely many co-prime positive…

Given a compact Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ without boundary of dimension $m\geq 3$ and under some symmetry assumptions, we establish existence of one positive and multiple nodal solutions to the Yamabe-type equation $$-div_{g}(a\nabla…

We obtain estimates for the number of integral solutions in large balls, of inequalities of the form $|Q(x, y)| < \epsilon$, where $Q$ is an indefinite binary quadratic form, in terms of the Hurwitz continued fraction expansions of the…

The families of simplest cubic, simplest quartic and simplest sextic fields and the related Thue equations are well known. The family of simplest cubic Thue equations was already studied in the relative case, over imaginary quadratic…

This paper gives out the general solutions of variable coefficients ODE and Riccati equation by way of integral series E(X) and F(X). Such kinds of integral series are the generalized form of exponential function, and keep the properties of…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field with $q=p^t$ elements. In this paper, we study the number of solutions of equations of the form $a_1 x_1^{d_1}+\dots+a_s x_s^{d_s}=b$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$. A classic well-konwn result from Weil yields a…

In 1946 Fine and Niven posed problem E724, asking to demonstrate that every hypercube can be tiled by any number of hypercubic tiles larger than some value. This requires only basic number theory, but the problem of finding the smallest…

We show that Euler's relation and the Taxi-Cab relation are both solutions of the same equation. General solutions of sums of two consecutive cubes equaling the sum of two other cubes are calculated. There is an infinite number of relations…

We use cubic reciprocity to prove that the equation $7x^3+2y^3=3z^2+1$ has no integer solutions. Prior to this work, it was the shortest cubic equation for which the existence of integer solutions remained open. We conclude with a list of…

We study a broad class of numerical problems that can be defined as the solution of a system of (nonlinear) equations for a subset of the dependent variables. Given a system of the form $F(x,y,z) = c$ with multivariate input $x$ and…

We solve Diophantine equations of the type $ a \, (x^3 \!+ \! y^3 \!+ \! z^3 ) = (x \! + \! y \! + \! z)^3$, where $x,y,z$ are integer variables, and the coefficient $a\neq 0$ is rational. We show that there are infinite families of such…
