Let W be an infinite irreducible Coxeter group with (s_1, ..., s_n) the simple generators. We give a simple proof that the word s_1 s_2 ... s_n s_1 s_2 >... s_n ... s_1 s_2 ... s_n is reduced for any number of repetitions of s_1 s_2 >...…

We determine the p-exponent in many of the coefficients in the power series (log(1+x)/x)^t, where t is any integer. In our proof, we introduce a variant of multinomial coefficients. We also characterize the power series x/log(1+x) by…
We show that for a random polynomial \[ F(X) = \sum_{n=1}^{N} f(n) X^{n-1}, \] where $f(n)$ is a random completely multiplicative function taking values in $\{\pm 1\}$, one has \[ \limsup_{N \to \infty} \mathbb{P}\big[F(X) \text{ is…
In this paper, we consider sums of four generalized polygonal numbers whose parameters are restricted to integers with a bounded number of prime divisors. With some restriction on m modulo 30, we show that for n sufficiently large, it can…
We give an exact coefficients formula of any infinite product of power series with constant term equal to $1$, by using structures from partitions of integers and permutation groups. This is an universal theorem for various of Binomial-type…
We compute the graded rank of the cohomology of the hyperplane complement associated with a quaternionic reflection group, and observe that it factors into irreducible factors with positive integer coefficients. For an irreducible group,…

In this article we compute the $q$th power values of the quadratic polynomials $f$ with negative squarefree discriminant such that $q$ is coprime to the class number of the splitting field of $f$ over $\mathbb{Q}$. The theory of unique…
For irreducible integer polynomials $f(n)=n^d+c$ we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of $k$-th power free values taken by $f(n)$, for $n$ running up to $x$, subject to the condition $k\ge (5d+3)/9$. This improves earlier results…
A polynomial over a ring is called decomposable if it is a composition of two nonlinear polynomials. In this paper, we obtain sharp lower and upper bounds for the number of decomposable polynomials with integer coefficients of fixed degree…
For integer $k \geq 0$, let $S_k$ denote the sum of the $k$th powers of the first $n$ positive integers $1^k + 2^k + \cdots + n^k$. For any given $k$, the power sum $S_k$ can in principle be determined by differentiating $k$ times (with…
Let X be a finite set of points in R^n. A polynomial p nonnegative on X can be written as a sum of squares of rational functions modulo the vanishing ideal I(X). From the point of view of applications, such as polynomial optimization, we…
We compute the Coxeter polynomial of a family of Salem trees, and also the limit of the spectral radii of their Coxeter transformations as the number of their vertices tends to infinity. We also prove a relation about multiplicities of…
We demonstrate that there are infinitely many integers that cannot be expressed as the sum of two squares of integers and up to two non-negative integer powers of 2.

We examine the behavior of the coefficients of powers of polynomials over a finite field of prime order. Extending the work of Allouche-Berthe, 1997, we study a(n), the number of occurring strings of length n among coefficients of any power…
Using combinatorial techniques, we derive a recurrence identity that expresses an exponential power sum with negative powers in terms of another exponential power sum with positive powers. Consequently, we derive a formula for the power sum…
It is proved that all sufficiently large integers $n$ can be represented as $$n=x_1^2+x_2^3+\cdots+x_{13}^{14},$$ where $x_1,\ldots,x_{13}$ are positive integers. This improves upon the current record with $14$ variables in place of $13$.
In this paper we study the index of reducibility of powers of a standard parameter ideal. An explicit formula is proved for the extremely case. We apply the main result to compute Hilbert polynomials of socle ideals of standard parameter…
