The purpose of this paper is to investigate the distribution of zeros of entire functions which can be represented as the Fourier transforms of certain admissible kernels. The principal results bring to light the intimate connection between…

We prove that there exist infinitely many (-1,1)-Carmichael numbers, that is, square-free, composite integers n such that p+1 divides n-1 for each prime p dividing n.

Let $k\ge 1$ be an integer. A positive integer $n$ is $k$-\textit{gleeful} if $n$ can be represented as the sum of $k$th powers of consecutive primes. For example, $35=2^3+3^3$ is a $3$-gleeful number, and $195=5^2+7^2+11^2$ is $2$-gleeful.…

Let $V$ be an absolutely irreducible affine variety over $\mathbb{F}_p$. A Lehmer point on $V$ is a point whose coordinates satisfy some prescribed congruence conditions, and a visible point is one whose coordinates are relatively prime.…

We derive a generating function for the number of integer compositions of $n$ into $k$ parts (i.e., $k$-compositions of $n$) with a given number of inversions, and obtain similar results for $k$-compositions of $n$ with a given number of…

We use the convolution method for arithmetic functions of several variables to deduce an asymptotic formula for the number of $k$-tuples of positive integers with components which are pairwise non-coprime and $\le x$. More generally, we…

A Sierpi\'nski number is a positive odd integer $k$ such that $k \cdot 2^n + 1$ is composite for all positive integers $n$. Fix an integer $A$ with $2 \le A$. We show that there exists a positive odd integer $k$ such that $k\cdot a^n + 1$…

This paper deals with a Euler type integral operator involving k-Mittag-Leffler function defined by Gupta and Parihar [8]. Furthermore, some special cases are also taken into consideration.

In modern usage the Bernoulli numbers and Bernoulli polynomials follow Euler's approach and are defined using generating functions. We consider the functional equation $f(x)+x^k=f(x+1)$ and show that a solution can be derived from…

We give a short and elementary argument answering a question of Erd\H{o}s and Ingham negatively. Erd\H{o}s and Ingham showed that a Tauberian estimate they considered was equivalent to the non-vanishing of $1+\sum_{k}a_k^{-1-it}$ for any…

We compute the ring of non-induced representations for a cyclic group, $C_n$, over an arbitrary field and show that it has rank $\varphi(n)$, where $\varphi$ is Euler's totient function - independent of the characteristic of the field.…

We prove that every arithmetic progression either contains infinitely many Carmichael numbers or none at all. Furthermore, there is a simple criterion for determining which category a given arithmetic progression falls into. In particular,…

We construct certain entire function $\lambda(s)$ which for integer s coincides with the well-known Keiper-Li coefficients, i.e. $\lambda(n)={\lambda}_{n}$. This is an even function ${\lambda}(s)={\lambda}(-s)$ and has an infinitude of…

We investigate the Waring-Goldbach problem of representing a positive integer $n$ as the sum of $s$ $k$th powers of almost equal prime numbers. Define $s_k=2k(k-1)$ when $k\ge 3$, and put $s_2=6$. In addition, put $\theta_2=\frac{19}{24}$,…

We construct a $k$-fold $q$-series as a generating function of $k$-regular partitions for each positive integer $k$. The $k=1$ case is one of Euler's $q$-series identities pertaining to the partitions into distinct parts. The construction…

A classical theorem of Kempner states that the sum of the reciprocals of positive integers with missing decimal digits converges. This result is extended to much larger families of "missing digits" sets of positive integers with both…

The notion of a k-automatic set of integers is well-studied. We develop a new notion - the k-automatic set of rational numbers - and prove basic properties of these sets, including closure properties and decidability.

We analyse linear maps of operator algebras $\mathcal{B}_H(\mathcal{H})$ mapping the set of rank-$k$ projectors onto the set of rank-$l$ projectors surjectively. We give a complete characterisation of such maps for prime $n =…

We establish sharp Trudinger-Moser inequalities with logarithmic weights for the $k$-Hessian equation and investigate the existence of maximizers. Our analysis extends the classical results of Tian and Wang to $k$-admissible function spaces…

An integer $k$ is called regular (mod $n$) if there exists an integer $x$ such that $k^2x\equiv k$ (mod $n$). This holds true if and only if $k$ possesses a weak order (mod $n$), i.e., there is an integer $m\ge 1$ such that $k^{m+1} \equiv…
