Let $b\ge 2$ be an integer. We show that the set of real numbers that are Poisson generic in base $b$ is $\boldsymbol{\Pi}^0_3$-complete in the Borel hierarchy of subsets of the real line. Furthermore, the set of real numbers that are Borel…

Special kinds of continued fractions have been proved to converge to transcendental real numbers by means of the celebrated Subspace Theorem. In this paper we study the analogous $p$--adic problem. More specifically, we deal with Browkin…

To allow for Division By Zero, we develop a new algebraic structure containing addition and multiplication called an S-Extension of a Field. This unique structure extends a Field so that the equation $0\cdot s=x$ has exactly one solution…

Let $g \geq 2$. A real number is said to be g-normal if its base g expansion contains every finite sequence of digits with the expected limiting frequency. Let \phi denote Euler's totient function, let \sigma be the sum-of-divisors…

In this article, we introduce the concepts of excision and idealization for a multiplicative Lie algebra (also for a Lie algebra), which provides two new multiplicative Lie algebras (or Lie algebras) from a given multiplicative Lie algebra…

Assume that $n \geq 2$ and $B = (b_1,...,b_n)$ has distince integer entries $\geq 3.$ For $x > 0$ let $d_B(x) := (d_{b_1}(x),...,d_{b_n}(x))$ where $d_{b_i}(x) \in \{1,...,b_i-1\}$ is the leftmost digit in the base-$b_i$ positional notation…

In this paper, a new criterion is given to determine the $p-$rationality of some complex cubic number fields in terms of $ p-$divisibility of certain terms of a third-order recurrence sequence, several illustrated examples are…

We introduce the notions of a mutually algebraic structures and theories and prove many equivalents. A theory $T$ is mutually algebraic if and only if it is weakly minimal and trivial if and only if no model $M$ of $T$ has an expansion…

We give a systematic method of providing numerical evidence for higher order Stark-type conjectures such as (in chronological order) Stark's conjecture over $\mathbb{Q}$, Rubin's conjecture, Popescu's conjecture, and a conjecture due to…

From its early beginnings up to nowadays, algebraic number theory has evolved in symbiosis with Galois theory: indeed, one could hold that it consists in the very study of the absolute Galois group of the field of rational numbers. Nothing…

In this note we introduce the notion of $T^*-$extension $T^*{\mathfrak g}$ of a Lie superalgebra ${\mathfrak g}$, i.e. an extension of ${\mathfrak g}$ by its dual space ${\mathfrak g}^*$. The natural pairing induces on $T^*{\mathfrak g}$ an…

Let g be a complex simple Lie algebra and b a fixed Borel subalgebra of g. We shall describe the abelian ideals of b in a uniform way, that is, independent of the classification of complex simple Lie algebras.

We investigate integer numbers which possess at the same time the properties to be triangulars and squares, that are, numbers $a$ for which do exist integers $m$ and $n$ such that $ a = n^2 = \frac{m \cdot (m+1)}{2} $. In particular, we are…

In a previous paper with the same title, we gave an upper bound for the exponent of uniform rational approximation to a quadruple of $\mathbb{Q}$-linearly independent real numbers in geometric progression. Here, we explain why this upper…

The abc conjecture, one of the most famous open problems in number theory, claims that three positive integers satisfying a+b=c cannot simultaneously have significant repetition among their prime factors; in particular, the product of the…

In this note we introduce the notion of a transcendental group, that is, a subgroup $G$ of the topological group $\mathbb{C}$ of all complex numbers such that every element of $G$ except $ 0$ is a transcendental number. All such topological…

Let L be a finite dimensional Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic zero. Denote by U(L) its enveloping algebra with quotient division ring D(L). In 1974, at the end of his book "Algebres enveloppantes", Jacques…

In the classical sense, the set B consists of all integers which can be written as a sum of two perfect squares. In other words, these are the values attained by norms of integral ideals over the Gaussian field Q(i). G.J. Rieger (1965) and…

We establish new combinatorial transcendence criteria for continued fraction expansions. Let $\alpha = [0; a_1, a_2,...]$ be an algebraic number of degree at least three. One of our criteria implies that the sequence of partial quotients…

We study the possible Picard numbers of abelian varieties of given dimension $g$. If $R_g$ denotes the set of realizable Picard numbers, then $R_g$ is bounded by $g^2$. We show that, for $g$ at least $3$, the set $R_g$ always has gaps and…
