For singular $n$-manifolds in $\mathbb R^{n+k}$ with a corank 1 singular point at $p\in M^n_{\mbox{sing}}$ we define up to $l(n-1)$ different axial curvatures at $p$, where $l=\min\{n,k+1\}$. These curvatures are obtained using the…

This paper presents an analysis of primitive permutation groups of degree $3p$, where $p$ is a prime number, analogous to H. Wielandt's treatment of groups of degree $2p$. It is also intended as an example of the systematic use of…

We prove a characteristic $p$ version of a theorem of Silverman on integral points in orbits over number fields and establish a primitive prime divisor theorem for polynomials in this setting. We provide some applications of these results,…

We use the arithmetic of the Kummer surface associated to the Jacobian of a hyperelliptic curve to study the primality of integers of the form $4m^2 5^n-1$. We provide an algorithm capable of proving the primality or compositeness of most…

An odd prime $p$ is called irregular with respect to Euler polynomials if it divides the numerator of one of the numbers $$E_1(0),E_{3}(0),\ldots,E_{p-2}(0),$$ where $E_n(x)$ is the $n$-th Euler polynomial. As in the classical case, we link…

Fix an integral Soddy sphere packing P. Let K be the set of all curvatures in P. A number n is called represented if n is in K, that is, if there is a sphere in P with curvature equal to n. A number n is called admissible if it is…

We consider the regular parts for basic functions of prime numbers with Riemann approximation accuracy.

The inversion of nabla Laplace transform, corresponding to a causal sequence, is considered. Two classical methods, i.e., residual calculation method and partial fraction method are developed to perform the inverse nabla Laplace transform.…

The Two-dimensional Bin Packing Problem calls for packing a set of rectangular items into a minimal set of larger rectangular bins. Items must be packed with their edges parallel to the borders of the bins, cannot be rotated and cannot…

We study the orbit of $\mathbb{R}$ under the Bianchi group $\operatorname{PSL}_2(\mathcal{O}_K)$, where $K$ is an imaginary quadratic field. The orbit, called a Schmidt arrangement $\mathcal{S}_K$, is a geometric realisation, as an…

We extend the old definition of the Apollonius circle in such a way that it results in the same curve in Euclidean geometry but will be more convenient in hyperbolic and spherical geometries. We show that there exists an Apollonius circle…

We present a generalization of Descartes' theorem for the family of polytopal sphere packings arising from uniform polytopes. The corresponding quadratic equation is expressed in terms of geometric invariants of uniform polytopes which are…

Motivated by a question in origami, we consider sets of points in the complex plane constructed in the following way. Let $L_\alpha(p)$ be the line in the complex plane through $p$ with angle $\alpha$ (with respect to the real axis). Given…

A prime sieve is an algorithm that finds the primes up to a bound $n$. We say that a prime sieve is incremental, if it can quickly determine if $n+1$ is prime after having found all primes up to $n$. We say a sieve is compact if it uses…

We present the first systematic algorithm to estimate the maximum packing density of spheres when the grain sizes are drawn from an arbitrary size distribution. With an Apollonian filling rule, we implement our technique for disks in 2d and…

The Abelian sandpile process evolves configurations of chips on the integer lattice by toppling any vertex with at least 4 chips, distributing one of its chips to each of its 4 neighbors. When begun from a large stack of chips, the terminal…

We prove the irreducibility of integer polynomials $f(X)$ whose roots lie inside an Apollonius circle associated to two points on the real axis with integer abscisae $a$ and $b$, with ratio of the distances to these points depending on the…

We classify essential algebras whose irredundant non-refinable covers consist of primal algebras. The proof is obtained by constructing one to one correspondence between such algebras and partial orders on finite sets. Further, we prove…

Computations over the rational numbers often suffer from intermediate coefficient swell. One solution to this problem is to apply the given algorithm modulo a number of primes and then lift the modular results to the rationals. This method…
