We introduce \emph{patterned numbers}, a digit--divisor-based classification of integers motivated by recreational mathematics. A number is defined to be patterned if at least one of its positive divisors appears as a digit in its base-10…
A discrete map based on the sum of an integer's distinct primes factors and the sum of its other factors is defined and its iteration is studied.
Using elementary linear algebra, this paper clarifies and proves some concepts about a recently introduced octonion-like associative division algebra over R. This octonion-like algebra is actually the same as the split-biquaternion algebra,…
This overview is devoted to splitting methods, a class of numerical integrators intended for differential equations that can be subdivided into different problems easier to solve than the original system. Closely connected with this class…
In this article we present pictorially the foundation of differential geometry which is a crucial tool for multiple areas of physics, notably general and special relativity, but also mechanics, thermodynamics and solving differential…
A general theory of programs, programming and programming languages built up from a few concepts of elementary set theory. Derives, as theorems, properties treated as axioms by classic approaches to programming. Covers sequential and…
We use recurrence equations (alias difference equations) to enumerate the number of formula-representations of positive integers using only addition and multiplication, and using addition, multiplication, and exponentiation, where all the…
The subject of Polynomiography deals with algorithmic visualization of polynomial equations, having many applications in STEM and art, see [Kal04]. Here we consider the polynomiography of the partial sums of the exponential series. While…
Applying Baaz's Generalization Method and a new technique to, respectively, proofs and denumerable simple graphs, diverse arithmetical patterns are observed. In particular, sufficient conditions for a number to be a divisor of a Fermat…
It is a basic introduction to differential graded Lie algebras, Maurer-Cartan equation and associated deformation functors.
Nominal logic is an extension of first-order logic which provides a simple foundation for formalizing and reasoning about abstract syntax modulo consistent renaming of bound names (that is, alpha-equivalence). This article investigates…
This paper presents a brief survey of the most important and the most remarkable inequalities involving the basic arithmetic functions.
The Lie algebras over the algebra of dual numbers are introduced and investigated.
We review some probabilistic properties of the sum-of-digits function of random integers. New asymptotic approximations to the total variation distance and its refinements are also derived. Four different approaches are used: a classical…
A semiprime is a natural number which can be written as the product of two primes. The asymptotic behaviour of the function $\pi_2(x)$, the number of semiprimes less than or equal to $x$, is studied. Using a combinatorial argument,…
A method for considering a weighted directed graph with an accuracy of up to a given partition of the set of vertices is proposed. The resulting digraph (the splitting graph) does not contain arcs inside each partition element, and the arcs…
These are the notes of my lectures at the 1996 European Congress of Mathematicians. {} Polynomials appear in mathematics frequently, and we all know from experience that low degree polynomials are easier to deal with than high degree ones.…
We give a construction of a real number that is normal to all integer bases and continued fraction normal. The computation of the first n digits of its continued fraction expansion performs in the order of n^4 mathematical operations. The…
The theory of grey systems plays an important role in science,engineering and in the everyday life in general for handling approximate data. In the present paper grey numbers are used as a tool for assessing with linguistic expressions the…
We develop a theory of multiplicative functions (with values inside or on the unit circle) in arithmetic progressions analogous to the well-known theory of primes in arithmetic progressions.
