In this paper, we consider universal sums of generalized polygonal numbers. Fixing $m\in\mathbb{N}_{\geq 3}$, we show two finiteness theorems for universal sums of generalized polygonal numbers whose inputs have a restricted number $L$ of…

This paper derives a differential contraction condition for the existence of an orbitally-stable limit cycle in an autonomous system. This transverse contraction condition can be represented as a pointwise linear matrix inequality (LMI),…

In this work we investigate the dynamics of the nonlinear DDE (delay-differential equation) x''(t)+x(t-T)+x(t)^3=0 where T is the delay. For T=0 this system is conservative and exhibits no limit cycles. For T>0, no matter how small, an…

A general result on the explicit form of the general error locator polynomial for all cyclic codes is given, along with several results for infinite classes of cyclic codes with $t=2$ and $t=3$. From these, a theoretically justification of…

Lienard systems are very important mathematical models describing oscillatory processes arising in applied sciences. In this paper, we study polynomial Lienard systems of arbitrary degree on the plane, and develop a new method to obtain a…

This article is devoted to the investigation of limit theorems for mixed max-sum processes with renewal type stopping indexes. Limit theorems of weak convergence type are obtained as well as functional limit theorems.

Using recent developments on the theory of locally decodable codes, we prove that the critical size for Szemer\'edi's theorem with random differences is bounded from above by $N^{1-\frac{2}{k} + o(1)}$ for length-$k$ progressions. This…

In this note we present a proof of multiple recurrence for ergodic systems (and thereby of Szemer\'edi's theorem) being a mixture of three known proofs. It is based on a conditional version of the Jacobs-de Leeuw-Glicksberg decomposition…

We extend a law of the single logarithm for delayed sums by Lai to delayed sums of random fields. A law for subsequences, which also includes the one-dimensional case, is obtained in passing.

In this article we prove in a new way that a generic polynomial vector field in $\mathbb C^2$ possesses countably many homologically independent limit cycles. The new proof needs no estimates on integrals, provides thinner exceptional set…

Consider multiple sums $S_n$ on the $d$-dimensional integer grid,which are generated by i.i.d.\ random variables with a positive expectation. We prove the strong law of large numbers, the law of the iterated logarithm and the distributional…

We propose a sufficient condition of the convergence of a generalized power series formally satisfying an algebraic (polynomial) ordinary differential equation. The proof is based on the majorant method.

We establish a multivariate empirical process central limit theorem for stationary $\R^d$-valued stochastic processes $(X_i)_{i\geq 1}$ under very weak conditions concerning the dependence structure of the process. As an application we can…

We study quadratic residue difference sets, GMW difference sets, and difference sets arising from monomial hyperovals, all of which are $(2^d-1, 2^{d-1}-1, 2^{d-2}-1)$ cyclic difference sets in the multiplicative group of the finite field…

We introduce the inversion polynomial for Dedekind sums $f_b(x)=\sum x^{\operatorname{inv}(a,b)}$ to study the number of $s(a,b)$ which have the same value for given $b$. We prove several properties of this polynomial and present some…
