For any $n\in\mathbb{N}=\{0,1,2,\ldots\}$ and $b,c\in\mathbb{Z}$, the generalized central trinomial coefficient $T_n(b,c)$ denotes the coefficient of $x^n$ in the expansion of $(x^2+bx+c)^n$. Let $p$ be an odd prime. In this paper, we…

Consider the polynomial $f(x,y)=xy^k+C$ for $k\geq 2$ and any nonzero integer constant $C$. We derive an asymptotic formula for the $k$-free values of $f(x,y)$ when $x, y\leq H$. We also prove a similar result for the $k$-free values of…

The set $\mathcal{R}_{G}(h,k)$ consists of all possible sizes for the $h$-fold sumset of sets containing $k$ elements from an additive abelian group $G$. The exact makeup of this set is still unknown, but there has been progress towards…

Lin and Chang gave a generating function of convex polyominoes with an $m+1$ by $n+1$ minimal bounding rectangle. Gessel showed that their result implies that the number of such polyominoes is $$ \frac{m+n+mn}{m+n}{2m+2n\choose…

Let $\epsilon$ be a fixed positive quantity, $m$ be a large integer, $x_j$ denote integer variables. We prove that for any positive integers $N_1,N_2,N_3$ with $N_1N_2N_3>m^{1+\epsilon},$ the set $$ \{x_1x_2x_3 \pmod m: \quad x_j\in [1,N_j]…

For irreducible integer polynomials $f(n)=n^d+c$ we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of $k$-th power free values taken by $f(n)$, for $n$ running up to $x$, subject to the condition $k\ge (5d+3)/9$. This improves earlier results…
