Given a dynamical system $(X,T)$ and a family $\mathsf{I}\subseteq \mathcal{P}(\omega)$ of "small" sets of nonnegative integers, a point $x \in X$ is said to be $\mathsf{I}$-strong universal if for each $y \in X$ there exists a subsequence…

We show that if $(a_j)_{j=0}^\infty$ is a sequence of numbers $a_j \in {\Bbb C}$ with $|a_j|=1$, and $$P_n(z) = \sum_{j=0}^n{a_jz^j}\,, \qquad n=0,1,2,\ldots\,,$$ then $(P_n)$ is NOT an ultraflat sequence of unimodular polynomials. This…

One of the most important and useful examples in discrete geometry is a finite sequence of points on the moment curve $\gamma(t)=(t,t^2,t^3,\dots ,t^d)$ or, more generally, on a {\it strictly monotone curve} in $\mathbb R^d$. These…

Let $D$ be the open unit disc in the complex plane. We denote by $\mathbb{C}$ the set of complex numbers and consider any compact set $K$ which is disjoint from $D$ and which also has connected complement. Let $A(K)$ denote all the…

We give a transform of convergent trigonometric series into equivalent convergent series and sufficient conditions for the transformed series to converge faster than the original one.

In this article, we classify (non-compact) $3$-manifolds with uniformly positive scalar curvature. Precisely, we show that an oriented $3$-manifold has a complete metric with uniformly positive scalar curvature if and only if it is…

For a subset $S$ of nonnegative integers and a vector $\mathbf{a}=(a_1,\dots,a_k)$ of positive integers, let $V'_S(\mathbf{a})=\{ a_1s_1+\cdots+a_ks_k : s_i\in S\} \setminus \{0\}$. For a positive integer $n$, let $\mathcal T(n)$ be the set…

This note deals with the relationship between the abscissas of simple, uniform and absolute convergence for the Dirichlet series $f(s) = \sum_{n=1}^\infty a_n n^{-s}$, when the coefficients $a_n$ are either multiplicative or completely…

Let $\mm_n, n=0,1,...$ be the supercritical branching random walk, in which the number of direct descendants of one individual may be infinite with positive probability. Assume that the standard martingale $W_n$ related to $\mm_n$ is…

It is an open question of Erd\H{o}s as to whether the alternating series $\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{(-1)^n n}{p_n}$ is (conditionally) convergent, where $p_n$ denotes the $n^{\mathrm{th}}$ prime. By using a random sifted model of the primes…

Let $a_n$ be the random increasing sequence of natural numbers which takes each value independently with decreasing probability of order $n^{-\alpha}$, $0 < \alpha < 1/2$. We prove that, almost surely, for every measure-preserving system…

Hypergeometric sequences are rational-valued sequences that satisfy first-order linear recurrence relations with polynomial coefficients; that is, $\langle u_n \rangle_{n=0}^\infty$ is hypergeometric if it satisfies a first-order linear…

Given lacunary sequence of integers, $n_k$, $n_{k+1}/n_k>\lambda>1$, we define a new sequence $\{m_k\}$ formed by all possible $l$-wise sums $\pm n_{k_1}\pm n_{k_2}\pm \ldots\pm n_{k_l}$. We prove if $\lambda>\lambda_l$, then any series…

We studied Ramanujan series $\sum_{q=1}^{\infty}G(q)c_q(a)$, where $c_q(a)$ is the well-known Ramanujan sum and the complex numbers $G(q)$, as $q\in$N, are the Ramanujan coefficients; of course, we mean, implicitly, that the series…

We unify the recently developed abstract theories of universal series and extended universal series to include sums of the form $\sum_{k=0}^n a_k x_{n,k}$ for given sequences of vectors $(x_{n,k})_{n\geq k\geq 0}$ in a topological vector…

An increasing sequence of integers is said to be universal for knots and links if every knot and link has a projection to the sphere such that the number of edges of each complementary face of the projection comes from the given sequence.…

A set of reals $A=\{a_1,...,a_n\}$ labeled in increasing order is called convex if there exists a continuous strictly convex function $f$ such that $f(i)=a_i$ for every $i$. Given a convex set $A$, we prove…

Let $\mathbf S \in \mathbb R^{n \times n}$ satisfy $\|\mathbf 1-\mathbf S\|_2\le\epsilon n$, where $\mathbf 1$ is the all ones matrix and $\|\cdot\|_2$ is the spectral norm. It is well-known that there exists such an $\mathbf S$ with just…

Asymptotic expansions for generalised trigonometric integrals are obtained in terms of elementary functions, which are valid for large values of the parameter $a$ and unbounded complex values of the argument. These follow from new…

An integer-valued polynomial $P(x,y,z)$ is said to be universal (over $\mathbb Z$) if each nonnegative integer can be written as $P(x,y,z)$ with $x,y,z\in\mathbb Z$. In this paper, we mainly introduce a new technique to determine the…
