Given $h,g \in \mathbb{N}$, we write a set $X \subset \mathbb{Z}$ to be a $B_{h}^{+}[g]$ set if for any $n \in \mathbb{Z}$, the number of solutions to the additive equation $n = x_1 + \dots + x_h$ with $x_1, \dots, x_h \in X$ is at most…

A set of integers $S \subset \mathbb{N}$ is an $\alpha$-strong Sidon set if the pairwise sums of its elements are far apart by a certain measure depending on $\alpha$, more specifically if $| (x+w) - (y+z) | \geq \max \{…

In this paper we construct an infinite sequence of binary irreducible polynomials starting from any irreducible polynomial $f_0 \in \F_2 [x]$. If $f_0$ is of degree $n = 2^l \cdot m$, where $m$ is odd and $l$ is a non-negative integer,…

We introduce the notion of infinitely log-monotonic sequences. By establishing a connection between completely monotonic functions and infinitely log-monotonic sequences, we show that the sequences of the Bernoulli numbers, the Catalan…

A subset $A$ of a commutative semigroup $X$ is called a $B_h$ set in $X$ if the only solutions to $a_1+\dots+a_h = b_1 + \cdots +b_h$ (with $a_i,b_i \in A$) are the trivial solutions $\{a_1,\dots,a_h\} = \{b_1,\dots,b_h\}$ (as multisets).…

The Collatz conjecture can be stated in terms of the reduced Collatz function R(x) = (3x+1)/2^m (where 2^m is the larger power of 2 that divides 3x+1). The conjecture is: Starting from any odd positive integer and repeating R(x) we…

In this paper we prove that if $A$ and $B$ are infinite subsets of positive integers such that every positive integer $n$ can be written as $n=ab$, $a\in A$, $b\in B$, then $\displaystyle \lim_{x\to \infty}\frac{A(x)B(x)}{x}=\infty $. We…

We consider the hash function $h(x) = ((ax+b) \bmod p) \bmod n$ where $a,b$ are chosen uniformly at random from $\{0,1,\ldots,p-1\}$. We prove that when we use $h(x)$ in hashing with chaining to insert $n$ elements into a table of size $n$…

In this note we prove that for every sequence $(m_q)_{q}$ of positive integers and for every real $0<\delta\leqslant1$ there is a sequence $(n_q)_{q}$ of positive integers such that for every sequence $(H_q)_{q}$ of finite sets such that…

Modulo the existence of large cardinals, there is a model of set theory in which for some set $B$ of regular cardinals, the sequence $\langle \text{pcf}^\alpha(B): \alpha \in \text{Ord} \rangle$ is strictly increasing. The result answers a…

The set of indices that correspond to the positive entries of a sequence of numbers is called its positivity set. In this paper, we study the density of the positivity set of a given linear recurrence sequence, that is the question of how…

We prove that functions continuous up to the boundary are dense in de Branges-Rovnyak spaces induced by extreme points the unit ball of $H^\infty$.

Given the congruence lattice L of a finite algebra A with a Mal'cev term, we look for those sequences of operations on L that are sequences of higher commutator operations of expansions of A. The properties of higher commutators proved so…

Motivated by the study of dynamics of interacting spins for infinite particle systems, we consider an infinite family of first order differential equations in a Euclidean space, parameterized by elements $x$ of a fixed countable set. We…

We give a new characterization of generalized B\"uchi sequences (sequences whose sequence of squares has constant second difference $(a)$, for some fixed integer $a$) of length 3 over the integers and a strategy for attacking B\"uchi's n…

We study convergence almost everywhere of sequences of Schr\"odinger means. We also replace sequences by uncountable sets.

A sequence of non-negative integers is called a B_k sequence if all the sums of arbitrary k elements are different. In this paper, we will present a new estimation for the upper bound of B_k sequences.

Periodic point sets model all solid crystalline materials whose structures are determined in a rigid form and should be studied up to rigid motion or isometry preserving inter-point distances. In 2021 H.Edelsbrunner et al. introduced an…

We show that there exists a fixed recursive function $e$ such that for all functions $h\colon \mathbb{N}\to \mathbb{N}$, there exists an injective function $c_h\colon \mathbb{N}\to \mathbb{N}$ such that $c_h(h(n))=e(c_h(n))$, i.e.,…

This short note answers a question raised by Nathanson \cite{Nath25} about "races" between iterated sumsets. We prove that for any integer $n$, there are finite sets of integers $A$ and $B$ with same diameter such that the signs of the…
