Let $A\subset \N_{+}$ and by $P_{A}(n)$ denotes the number of partitions of an integer $n$ into parts from the set $A$. The aim of this paper is to prove several result concerning the existence of integer solutions of Diophantine equations…

For $n \geq 3,$ let $ p_n $ denote the $n^{\rm th}$ prime number. Let $[ \; ]$ denote the floor or greatest integer function. For a positive integer $m,$ let $\pi_2(m)$ denote the number of twin primes not exceeding $m.$ The twin prime…

A graph $G$ is defined encapsulating the number theoretic notion of the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic. We then provide a graph theoretic approach to the fundamental results on the coprimality of two natural numbers, through the use of…

In this short paper, I present a few theorems on sentences of arithmetic which are related to Yablo's Paradox as G\"odel's first undecidable sentence was related to the Liar paradox. In particular, I consider two different arithemetizations…

Two approximations, derived from continuous expansions of Riemann-Liouville fractional derivatives into series involving integer order derivatives, are studied. Using those series, one can formally transform any problem that contains…

In this paper, we state a conjecture on the prime factorization of numbers of the form $n!+1$, explore its implications, and compare it with empirical evidence and established results based on the $abc$ conjecture.

We translate the results of Yansong Xu into the language of~\cite{GGV1}, obtaining nearly the same formulas for the intersection number of Jacobian pairs, but with an inequality instead of an equality.

A number $n$ is practical if every integer in $[1,n]$ can be expressed as a subset sum of the positive divisors of $n$. We consider the distribution of practical numbers that are also shifted primes, improving a theorem of Guo and…

For $n\leq 1.5 \cdot 10^{10}$, we have found a total number of 1268 solutions to the Erd\"os-Sierpi\'nski problem finding positive integer solutions of $\sigma(n)=\sigma(n+1)$, where $\sigma(n)$ is the sum of the positive divisors of n. On…

In this paper, we focus on Narayana numbers which can be written as a products of four repdigits in base $g$, where $g$ is an integer with $g\geq2$. We prove that for $g$ between $2$ and $12$, there are finitely many of these numbers.…

Axiomatizing mathematical structures is a goal of Mathematical Logic. Axiomatizability of the theories of some structures have turned out to be quite difficult and challenging, and some remain open. However axiomatization of some…

We introduce the central Fubini-like numbers and polynomials using Rota approach. Several identities and properties are established as generating functions, recurrences, explicit formulas, parity, asymptotics and determinantal…

The numbers game is a one-player game played on a finite simple graph with certain "amplitudes" assigned to its edges and with an initial assignment of real numbers to its nodes. The moves of the game successively transform the numbers at…

In this article, we consider the set of points for the holding of the equality in a weighted version of Suita conjecture for higher derivatives, and give relations between the set and the integer valued points of a class of harmonic…

In this short note, we give an affirmative answer to Wu's conjecture on practical numbers, which was posed in [X.-H. Wu, {\it Special forms and the distribution of practical numbers}, Acta Math. Hungar., {\bf 160}(2020), 405-411].

Let A(n) be a $k\times s$ matrix and $m(n)$ be a $k$ dimensional vector, where all entries of A(n) and $m(n)$ are integer-valued polynomials in $n$. Suppose that $$t(m(n)|A(n))=#\{x\in\mathbb{Z}_{+}^{s}\mid A(n)x=m(n)\}$$ is finite for each…

Two types of finite series of products of harmonic numbers involving nonnegative integer powers are evaluated, also yielding two other important harmonic number identities. The recursion formulas for these sums are derived, which are easily…

We show that under the definition of computability which is natural from the point of view of applications, there exist non-computable quadratic Julia sets.

In this note, we construct and study an algebraic system similar to the natural numbers, but with noncommutative addition. The addition we introduce is a binary operation that commutes with itself in the sense of N. Durov. Neverheless, the…

Arithmetic differential equations are analogues of algebraic differential equations in which derivative operators acting on functions are replaced by Fermat quotient operators acting on numbers. Now, various remarkable transcendental…
