In this paper we demonstrate that the class of basic feasible functionals has recursion theoretic properties which naturally generalize the corresponding properties of the class of feasible functions. We also improve the Kapron - Cook…

We obtain a three-parameter $q$-series identity that generalizes two results of Chan and Mao. By specializing our identity, we derive new results of combinatorial significance in connection with $N(r, s, m, n)$, a function counting certain…

We study certain double--series inequalities, which are motivated by weighted Hardy inequalities.

Elementary proofs are given for sums of Schur functions over partitions into at most n parts each less than or equal to m for which i) all parts are even, ii) all parts of the conjugate partition are even. Also, an elementary proof of a…

We introduce a self-inverse function via an integral equivalent to a two-term combination of dilogarithms. We refer to this function as a fundamental form, since there is a family of extensions of this function that satisfy similar…

Estimates for initial coefficients of Taylor-Maclaurin series of bi-univalent functions belonging to certain classes defined by subordination are obtained. Our estimates improve upon the earlier known estimates for second and third…

A characterization of multiplicative (and additive) arithmetical functions is given. Using this characterization, we show that the group of multiplicative arithmetical functions is isomorphic to the group of additive arithmetical functions.

We present a number of identities involving standard and associated Laguerre polynomials. They include double-, and triple-lacunary, ordinary and exponential generating functions of certain classes of Laguerre polynomials.

We prove a double binomial sum identity which differs from most binomial sum identities in that the summands involve the absolute value function. The identity is of interest because it can be used in proofs of lower bounds for the Hadamard…

We derive modular parametrizations for certain infinite series whose summands involve central binomial coefficients and higher-order harmonic numbers. When the rates of convergence are certain rational numbers, modularity allows us to…

We study two techniques to obtain new families of classical and general Dual-Feasible Functions: A conversion from minimal Gomory--Johnson functions; and computer-based search using polyhedral computation and an automatic maximality and…

We prove certain Nahm-type sum representations for the (odd modulus) Andrews-Gordon identities, the (even modulus) Andrews-Bressoud identities, and Rogers' false theta functions. These identities are motivated on one hand by a recent work…

We generalize and prove conjectures of Corteel and Lovejoy, related to overpartitions and divisor functions.

We derive a general formula for the product of two Dirichlet series that satisfy Hecke's functional equation. Several examples are provided to demonstrate the applicability of the formula. In addition, we discuss prior work on similar…

By using Alexander duality on simplicial complexes we give a new and algebraic proof of Dirac's theorem on chordal graphs.

We propose and investigate a bi-infinite matrix approach to the multiplication and composition of formal Laurent series. We generalize the concept of Riordan matrix to this bi-infinite context, obtaining matrices that are not necessarily…

First we prove some elementary but useful identities in the group ring of Q/Z. Our identities have potential applications to several unsolved problems which involve sums of Farey fractions. In this paper we use these identities, together…

In the paper we provide some polynomial identities for finite-dimensional algebras. A list of well known single polynomial identities is exposed and the classification of all $2$-dimensional algebras with respect to these identities is…

Looking in positive characteristic for failures of the Bertini-Sard theorem, we determine, up to birational equivalence, the separable proper morphisms of smooth algebraic varieties in characteristic two, whose fibres are non-smooth curves…

A boundary singularity is a singularity of a function on a manifold with boundary. The simple and unimodal boundary singularities were classified by V. I. Arnold and V. I. Matov. The McKay correspondence can be generalized to the simple…
