In this note, we give some explicit upper and lower bounds for the summation $\sum_{0<\gamma\leq T}\frac{1}{\gamma}$, where $\gamma$ is the imaginary part of nontrivial zeros $\rho=\beta+i\gamma$ of $\zeta(s)$.

We describe a method for bounding the set of exceptional integers not represented by a given additive form in terms of the exceptional set corresponding to a subform. Illustrating our ideas with examples stemming from Waring's problem for…

Notice that the square of $9376$ is $87909376$ which has as its rightmost four digits $9376$. To generalize this remarkable fact, we show that, for each integer $n\ge 2$, there exists at least one and at most two positive integers $x$ with…

If a geometry $\Gamma$ is isomorphic to the residue of a point $A$ of a shadow geometry of a spherical building $\Delta$, a representation $\varepsilon_\Delta^A$ of $\Gamma$ can be given in the unipotent radical $U_{A^*}$ of the stabilizer…

For every nonzero integer $m$ and every integer $n \ge 1$, the $n$\textsuperscript{th} harmonic number $H_n = 1 + \tfrac12 + \dots + \tfrac1n$ satisfies the identity \[ H_n \;=\; \frac{1}{m}\,\sum_{k=1}^{n} \frac{(-1)^{k+1}}{k}\, \binom{m…

We study arithmetical and combinatorial properties of $\beta$-integers for $\beta$ being the root of the equation $x^2=mx-n, m,n \in \mathbb N, m \geq n+2\geq 3$. We determine with the accuracy of $\pm 1$ the maximal number of…

In this paper, we study representation formulas for finite-horizon optimal control problems with or without state constraints, unifying two different viewpoints: the Lagrangian and dynamic programming (DP) frameworks. In a recent work [1],…

The wavelet group and wavelet representation associated with shifts coming from a two dimensional crystal symmetry group $\Gamma$ and dilations by powers of 3, are defined and studied. The main result is an explicit decomposition of the…

Let $ \lfloor {x} \rfloor $ denote the greatest integer less than or equal to a real number $x$. Given real numbers $0<\alpha_1 < \alpha_2 < \cdots< \alpha_k < 1$ satisfying a certain condition, we show that there are infinitely many…

We prove that the optimal assignment kernel, proposed recently as an attempt to embed labeled graphs and more generally tuples of basic data to a Hilbert space, is in fact not always positive definite.

In this paper we consider integers in base 10 like $abc$, where $a$, $b$, $c$ are digits of the integer, such that $abc^2 - (abc \cdot cba) \; = \; \pm n^2$, where $n$ is a positive integer, as well as equations $abc^2 - (abc \cdot cba) \;…

We investigate the average number of representations of a positive integer as the sum of $k + 1$ perfect $k$-th powers of primes. We extend recent results of Languasco and the last Author, which dealt with the case $k = 2$ [6] and $k = 3$…

An \emph{indeterminate string} $x = x[1..n]$ on an alphabet $\Sigma$ is a sequence of nonempty subsets of $\Sigma$; $x$ is said to be \emph{regular} if every subset is of size one. A proper substring $u$ of regular $x$ is said to be a…

We give formulas for the number of representations of non negative integers by various quadratic forms. We also give evaluations in the case of sum of two cubes (cubic case) and the quintic case, as well. We introduce a class of generalized…

A formula of Doetsch ({\em Math. Zeitschr.} {\bf 42}, 263 (1937)) is generalized and used to numerically invert the one-sided Laplace transform ${\hat C}(\beta)$. The necessary input is only the values of ${\hat C}(\beta)$ on the positive…

The support of a vector is the number of nonzero-components. We show that given an integral $m\times n$ matrix $A$, the integer linear optimization problem $\max\left\{\boldsymbol{c}^T\boldsymbol{x} : A\boldsymbol{x} = \boldsymbol{b}, \,…

In additive number theory, a finite set $A$ of integers is an $h$-basis for $n$ if every integer in $\{0,1,2,\ldots, n\}$ can be represented as the sum of exactly $h$ not necessarily distinct elements of $A$. This paper introduces a new…

We provide the classification of all the positive solutions to $-\Delta u=\frac{1}{u^\gamma}$ in the half space, under minimal assumption.

The paper investigates relationship between algebraic expressions and graphs. We consider a digraph called a Fibonacci graph which gives a generic example of non-series-parallel graphs. Our intention in this paper is to simplify the…

In this article, we find bases for the spaces of modular forms $M_{3}(\Gamma _{0}(40),\left( \frac{d}{\cdot }\right) )$ for $d=-4,-8,-20\text{ and }-40.$ We then derive formulas for the number of representations of a positive integer by all…
