In this paper, we construct certain infinite families of imaginary quadratic fields whose class number is divisible by a given positive integer.

Let $M$ be a subset of $\mathbb{R}^k$. It is an important question in the theory of linear inequalities to estimate the minimal number $h=h(M)$ such that every system of linear inequalities which is infeasible over $M$ has a subsystem of at…

In Pacific J. Math. 292 (2018), 223-238, Shareshian and Woodroofe asked if for every positive integer $n$ there exist primes $p$ and $q$ such that, for all integers $k$ with $1 \leq k \leq n-1$, the binomial coefficient $\binom{n}{k}$ is…

For $m=3,4,\ldots$, the polygonal numbers of order $m$ are given by $p_m(n)=(m-2)\binom n2+n\ (n=0,1,2,\ldots)$. For positive integers $a,b,c$ and $i,j,k\ge3$ with $\max\{i,j,k\}\ge5$, we call the triple $(ap_i,bp_j,cp_k)$ universal if for…

We characterise $t$-perfect plane triangulations by forbidden induced subgraphs. As a consequence, we obtain that a plane triangulation is $h$-perfect if and only if it is perfect.

We consider arrangements of n hyperplanes of codimension one in a real projective space of dimension d. Let us denote by F the maximal possible number f of connected components of the complement in the projective space of dimension d to the…

In this paper we first investigate for what positive integers $a,b,c$ every nonnegative integer $n$ can be represented as $x(ax+1)+y(by+1)+z(cz+1)$ with $x,y,z$ integers. We show that $(a,b,c)$ can be either of the following seven triples:…

We identify pairs of positive integers $(t, d)$ with the property that the integer sequence with general term $\lfloor{n^t/d\rfloor}$ contains at most finitely many primes.

An {\em eight-partition} of a finite set of points (respectively, of a continuous mass distribution) in $\mathbb{R}^3$ consists of three planes that divide the space into $8$ octants, such that each open octant contains at most $1/8$ of the…

A \emph{complete geometric graph} consists of a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane, in general position, and all segments (edges) connecting them. It is a well known question of Bose, Hurtado, Rivera-Campo, and Wood, whether there exists a…

Let $d$ and $m$ be two distinct squarefree integers and $\mathcal{O}_K$ the ring of integers of the quadratic field $K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$. Denote by $ H_K(\alpha, m)$ a quaternion algebra over $K$, where $\alpha\in \mathcal{O}_K$. In…

This paper is intended as a sequel to a paper arXiv:0803.2636 written by four of the coauthors here. In the paper, they proved a stronger form of the Erd\H{o}s-Mirksy conjecture which states that there are infinitely many positive integers…

For positive integers m and r, one can easily show there exist integers N such that for every map D:{1,2,...,N} -> {1,2,...,r} there exist 2m integers x_1 < ... < x_m < y_1 < ... < y_m which satisfy: (a) D(x_1) = ... = D(x_m), (b) D(y_1) =…

A tight Heffter array H(m,n) is an m x n matrix with nonzero entries from Z_{2mn+1} such that i) the sum of the elements in each row and each column is 0, and ii) no element from {x,-x\ appears twice. We prove that H(m,n) exist if and only…

In this paper, we prove the conjectures of Gharakhloo and Welker (2023) that the positive matching decomposition number (pmd) of a $3$-uniform hypergraph is bounded from above by a polynomial of degree $2$ in terms of the number of…

One of our result is that 5 measurable sets in $R^8$ always admit an equipartition by 2 hyperplanes. This is an instance of a general equipartition problem (formulated by B. Gr{\" u}nbaum and H. Hadwiger) which can be reduced to the…

Prime number multiplet classifications and patterns are extended to negative integers. The extension from prime numbers to single prime powers is also studied. Prime number septets at equal distance are given. It is also shown that each…

The Ehrhart polynomial of the $d$-th hypersimplex $\Delta(d,n)$ of order $n$ is studied. By computational experiments and a known result for $d=2$, we conjecture that the real part of every roots of the Ehrhart polynomial of $\Delta(d,n)$…

We are motivated by cone spherical metrics on compact Riemann surfaces of positive genus to solve a special case of the Hurwitz problem. Precisely speaking, letting $d,\,g$ and $\ell$ be three positive integers and $\Lambda$ be the…
