Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over a finite field $k$, and $\ell$ a prime number different from the characteristic of $k$. In this paper we consider the problem of finding the structure of the Tate module $T_\ell(E)$ as an integral Galois…
We formulate probabilistic numerical approximations to solutions of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) as problems in Gaussian process (GP) regression with non-linear measurement functions. This is achieved by defining the measurement…
Let $n$ be a positive integer greater than $2$. We define \textit{the Proth numerical semigroup}, $P_{k}(n)$, generated by $\{k 2^{n+i}+1 \,\mid\, i \in \mathbb{N}\}$, where $k$ is an odd positive number and $k < 2^{n}$. In this paper, we…
The edge isoperimetric problem for a graph $G$ is to determine, for each $n$, the minimum number of edges leaving any set of $n$ vertices. In general this problem is NP-hard, but exact solutions are known in some special cases, for example…
A subset U of a group G is called k-universal if U contains a translate of every k-element subset of G. We give several nearly optimal constructions of small k-universal sets, and use them to resolve an old question of Erdos and Newman on…
Inspired by the Erd\"os-Turan conjecture we consider subsets of the natural numbers that contains infinitely many aritmetic progressions (APs) of any given length - such sets will be called AP-sets and we know due to the Green-Tao Theorem…
The two main approaches to the study of irreducible representations of orders (via traces and Poisson orders) have so far been applied in a completely independent fashion. We define and study a natural compatibility relation between the two…
The subset sum problem is known to be an NP-hard problem in the field of computer science with the fastest known approach having a run-time complexity of $O(2^{0.3113n})$. A modified version of this problem is known as the perfect sum…
Parameter identification problems in partial differential equations (PDEs) consist in determining one or more functional coefficient in a PDE. In this article, the Bayesian nonparametric approach to such problems is considered. Focusing on…
We consider the statistical linear inverse problem of making inference on an unknown source function in an elliptic partial differential equation from noisy observations of its solution. We employ nonparametric Bayesian procedures based on…
Linear inverse problems are ubiquitous. Often the measurements do not follow a Gaussian distribution. Additionally, a model matrix with a large condition number can complicate the problem further by making it ill-posed. In this case, the…
The numerical solution of differential equations can be formulated as an inference problem to which formal statistical approaches can be applied. However, nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) pose substantial challenges from an…
The present paper studies a Gaussian Hermitian random matrix ensemble with external source, given by a fixed diagonal matrix with two eigenvalues a and -a. As a first result, the probability that the eigenvalues of the ensemble belong to a…
Gaussian elimination (GE) is the archetypal direct algorithm for solving linear systems of equations and this has been its primary application for thousands of years. In the last decade, GE has found another major use as an iterative…
Given a graph $G=(V,E)$ with $V=\{1,2,...,k\}$, the $k$ positive integers $a_1,a_2, ...,a_k$ are $G$-wise relatively prime if $(a_i, a_j)=1$ for $\{i,j\} \in E$. In this note we consider the problem of finding the probability $A_G$ that k…
For fixed positive integers $n$, we study the solution of the equation $n = k + p_k$, where $p_k$ denotes the $k$th prime number, by means of the iterative method \[ k_{j+1} = \pi(n-k_j), \qquad k_0 = \pi(n), \] which converges to the…
On a domain of the n-dimensional Euclidean space, and for an integer k=1,...,n, the k-Hessian equations are fully nonlinear elliptic equations for k >1 and consist of the Poisson equation for k=1 and the Monge-Ampere equation for k=n. We…
Motivated by a WhattsApp message, we find out the integers $x> y\ge 1$ such that $(x+1)/(y+1)=(x\circ(y+1))/(y\circ (x+1))$, where $\circ$ means the concatenation of the strings of two natural numbers (for instance $783\circ 56=78356$). The…
Pseudo-Boolean constraints, also known as 0-1 Integer Linear Constraints, are used to model many real-world problems. A common approach to solve these constraints is to encode them into a SAT formula. The runtime of the SAT solver on such…
