In this paper we study lower ramification numbers of power series tangent to the identity that are defined over fields of positive characteristics $p$. Let $g$ be such a series, then $g$ has a fixed point at the origin and the corresponding…
For $a,b>0$ with $a\neq b$, we define M_{p}=M^{1/p}(a^{p},b^{p})\text{if}p\neq 0 \text{and} M_{0}=\sqrt{ab}, where $M=A,He,L,I,P,T,N,Z$ and $Y$ stand for the arithmetic mean, Heronian mean, logarithmic mean, identric (exponential) mean, the…
The article presents mathematical generalization of results which originated as solutions of practical problems, in particular, the modeling of transitional processes in electrical circuits and problems of resource allocation. However, the…
In this paper we consider polynomial representability of functions defined over $Z_{p^n}$, where $p$ is a prime and $n$ is a positive integer. Our aim is to provide an algorithmic characterization that (i) answers the decision problem: to…
We provide novel simple representations of strategy-proof voting rules when voters have uni-dimensional single-peaked preferences (as well as multi-dimensional separable preferences). The analysis recovers, links and unifies existing…
We obtain a measure theoretical characterization of polynomials among rational functions on $\mathbb{P}^1$, which generalizes a theorem of Lopes. Our proof applies both classical and dynamically weighted potential theory.
We survey a collective achievement of a group of researchers: the PCP Theorems. They give new definitions of the class \np, and imply that computing approximate solutions to many \np-hard problems is itself \np-hard. Techniques developed to…
A new characterization for power function distributions is obtained which is based on products of order statistics. This result may be considered as a generalization of some recent results for contractions. We note that in this new result…
The problem of finding formulas for sums of powers of natural numbers has been of interest to mathematicians for many centuries. Among these is Faulhaber's well-known formula expressing the power sums as polynomials whose coefficients…
The author proves that for $0.9985 < \gamma < 1$, there exist infinitely many primes $p$ such that $[p^{1/\gamma}]$ has at most 5 prime factors counted with multiplicity. This gives an improvement upon the previous results of…
It is shown that the p-summing norm of any operator with n-dimensional domain can be well-aproximated using only ``few" vectors in the definition of the p-summing norm. Except for constants independent of n and log n factors, ``few" means n…
Let $\omega_0, \omega_1,\ldots, \omega_n$ be a full set of outcomes (letters, symbols) and let positive $p_i$, $i=0,\ldots,n$, be their probabilities ($\sum_{i=0}^n p_i=1$). Let us treat $\omega_0$ as a stop symbol; it can occur in…
The $L^{p,\infty}$ quasi-norm of functions on a measure space can be characterized in terms of their pairing with normalized characteristic functions. We generalize this result to the case of the outer $L^{p,\infty}$ quasi-norms for…
The uninorms with continuous underlying t-norm and t-conorm are characterized via an extended ordinal sum construction. Using the results of [18], where each uninorm with continuous underlying operations was characterized by properties of…
Let $\mathcal{P}_r$ denote an almost-prime with at most $r$ prime factors, counted according to multiplicity. In this paper, it is proved that, for $0.989<\gamma<1$, there exist infinitely many primes $p$ such that…
We show that if A is a subset of Z/pZ (p a prime) of density bounded away from 0 and 1 then the A(Z/pZ)-norm (that is the l^1-norm of the Fourier transform) of the characterstic function of A is bounded below by an absolute constant times…
The problem to determine an explicit one-parameter power form representation of the proper Zolotarev polynomials of degree $n$ and with uniform norm $1$ on $[-1,1]$ can be traced back to P. L. Chebyshev. It turned out to be complicated,…
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…
The concept of p-ordering for a prime p was introduced by Manjul Bhargava (in his PhD thesis) to develop a generalized factorial function over an arbitrary subset of integers. This notion of p-ordering provides a representation of…
The paper continues the line of model-theoretic characterizations for versions of intuitionistic logic previously achieved by the author, further generalizing them. This results in a model-theoretic characterization of expressive powers of…
