The problem of robustly reconstructing an integer vector from its erroneous remainders appears in many applications in the field of multidimensional (MD) signal processing. To address this problem, a robust MD Chinese remainder theorem…

Let $a_1$, $a_2$, and $a_3$ be distinct reduced residues modulo $q$ satisfying the congruences $a_1^2 \equiv a_2^2 \equiv a_3^2 \pmod q$. We conditionally derive an asymptotic formula, with an error term that has a power savings in $q$, for…

We study a topological generalization of ideal co-maximality in topological rings and present some of its properties, including a generalization of the Chinese remainder theorem. Using the hyperspace uniformity, we prove a stronger version…

A set ${\cal A} \subseteq \Set{1,...,N}$ is of type $B_2$ if all sums $a+b$, with $a\ge b$, $a,b\in {\cal A}$, are distinct. It is well known that the largest such set is of size asymptotic to $N^{1/2}$. For a $B_2$ set ${\cal A}$ of this…

In this paper, we introduce a new family of codes relevent for rank and sum-rank metrics. These codes are based on an effective Chinese remainders theorem for linearized polynomials over finite fields. We propose a decoding algorithm for…

In this paper, we establish a residue theorem for Malcev-Neumann series that requires few constraints, and includes previously known combinatorial residue theorems as special cases. Our residue theorem identifies the residues of two formal…

For a fixed rational number g, not equal to -1,0 or 1 and integers a and d we consider the set of primes p for which the order of g(mod p) is congruent to a(mod d). For d=4 and d=3 it is shown that, under the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis,…

Let $\{(A_i,B_i)\}_{i=1}^{m}$ be a collection of pairs of sets with $|A_i|=a$ and $|B_i|=b$ for $1\leq i\leq m$. Suppose that $A_i\cap B_j=\emptyset$ if and only if $i=j$, then by the famous Bollob\'{a}s theorem, we have the size of this…

An MV-algebra (equivalently, a lattice-ordered Abelian group with a distinguished order unit) is strongly semisimple if all of its quotients modulo finitely generated congruences are semisimple. All MV-algebras satisfy a Chinese Reminder…

Let $p$ be a given modulus, let $u$ be prime to $p$, and consider the linear permutation $u\cdot n\pmod p$ of the residue system modulo $p$. Writing $\langle x\rangle_p$ to denote the least nonnegative residue of $x$ modulo $p$, we say that…

We consider a problem of P. Erdos, A. M. Odlyzko and A. Sarkozy about the representation of residue classes modulo m by products of two not too large primes. While it seems that even the Extended Riemann Hypothesis is not powerful enough to…

We prove that the lonely runner conjecture holds for eight runners. Our proof relies on a computer verification and on recent results that allow bounding the size of a minimal counterexample. We note that our approach also applies to the…

For $x$ real, let $ \{ x \}$ be the fractional part of $x$ (i.e. $\{x\} = x - \lfloor x \rfloor $). The lonely runner conjecture can be stated as follows: for any $n$ positive integers $ v_1 < v_2 < \dots < v_n $ there exists a real number…

The Lonely Runner Conjecture states that if $k+1$ runners start at the same point on a unit-length circular track and run with distinct constant speeds, then each runner is at some time at least $1/(k+1)$-distant from every other runner.…

For integers a and n>0, let a(n) denote the residue class {x\in Z: x=a (mod n)}. Let A be a collection {a_s(n_s)}_{s=1}^k of finitely many residue classes such that A covers all the integers at least m times but {a_s(n_s)}_{s=1}^{k-1} does…

We propose a generic design for Chinese remainder algorithms. A Chinese remainder computation consists in reconstructing an integer value from its residues modulo non coprime integers. We also propose an efficient linear data structure, a…

A resolution of the intersection of a finite number of subgroups of an abelian group by means of their sums is constructed, provided the lattice generated by these subgroups is distributive. This is used for detecting singularities of…

Let $a$ and $m>0$ be integers. We show that for any integer $b$ relatively prime to $m$, the set $\{a^n+bn:\ n=1,\ldots,m^2\}$ contains a complete system of residues modulo $m$. We also pose several conjectures for further research; for…

In this paper, we completely determine the number of solutions to $ \operatorname{Tr}^{q^2}_q(bx+b)+c=0, x\in \mu_{q+1}\backslash \{-1\}$ for all $b\in \mathbb{F}_{q^2}, c\in\mathbb{F}_{q}$. As an application, we can give the weight…
