In 1964, Paul Erd\H{o}s published a paper settling a question about function spaces that he had seen in a problem book. Erd\H{o}s proved that the answer was yes if and only if the continuum hypothesis was false: an innocent-looking question…
This paper investigates the Erd\H{o}s distinct subset sums problem in $\mathbb{Z}^k$. Beyond the classical variance method, using alternative statistical quantities like $\mathbb{E}[\|X\|_1]$ and $\mathbb{E}[\|X\|_3^3]$ can yield better…
The note complements topological aspects of the theory of chiral algebras.
This text consists of five relatively systematic notes on Gr\"obner bases and free resolutions of modules over solvable polynomial algebras.
In this paper, we introduce the Lah-Bell numbers and their natural extensions, namely the Lah-Bell polynomials, and derive some basic properties of such numbers and polynomials by using elementary methods. In addition, we consider the…
Parallel addition, i.e., addition with limited carry propagation, has been so far studied for complex bases and integer alphabets. We focus on alphabets consisting of integer combinations of powers of the base. We give necessary conditions…
We amalgamate two generalizations of Ramsey's Theorem--Ramsey classes and the Erd\H{o}s-Rado Theorem--into the notion of a combinatorial Erd\H{o}s-Rado class. These classes are closely related to Erd\H{o}s-Rado classes, which are those from…
Orthogonal polynomials on quadratic curves in the plane are studied. These include orthogonal polynomials on ellipses, parabolas, hyperbolas, and two lines. For an integral with respect to an appropriate weight function defined on any…
This is a guide to the construction of nonlinear number fields, which includes new points not found in our earlier article ``Geometric Galois theory, nonlinear number fields and a Galois group interpretation of the idele class group''.
General revision. In particular the parts concerning involutive bases over rings have been significantly changed. In addition some proofs have been improved.
We study and describe possibilities for arities of elementary theories and of their expansions. Links for arities with respect to Boolean algebras, to disjoint unions and to compositions of structures are shown. The dynamics for arities of…
Hypercomplex numbers are unital algebras over the real numbers. We offer a short demonstration of the practical value of hypercomplex analytic functions in the field of partial differential equations.
In this paper, we prove the conjecture that if there is an odd perfect number, then there are infinitely many of them.
The set A = {a_n} of nonnegative integers is an asymptotic basis of order h if every sufficiently large integer can be represented as the sum of h elements of A. If a_n ~ alpha n^h for some real number alpha > 0, then alpha is called an…
We present an explicit subset $A\subseteq \mathbb{N} = \{0,1,\ldots\}$ such that $A + A = \mathbb{N}$ and for all $\varepsilon > 0$, \[\lim_{N\to \infty}\frac{\big|\big\{(n_1,n_2): n_1 + n_2 = N, (n_1,n_2)\in…
Euler states without proof statements about the form of prime divisors of numbers of the form aa+Nbb. See Ed Sandifer's How Euler Did It, ``Factors of Forms'', December 2005 at http://www.maa.org/news/howeulerdidit.html for a summary of the…
We continue our recent work on averages for ternary additive problems with powers of prime numbers.
We review some applications of Gr\"obner-Shirshov bases, including PBW theorems, linear bases of free universal algebras, normal forms for groups and semigroups, extensions of groups and algebras, embedding of algebras.
A conjecture regarding the structure of expander graphs is discussed.
In this paper we presents further developments regarding the enrichment of the basic Theory of Order Completion. In particular, spaces of generalized functions are constructed that contain generalized solutions to all systems of continuous,…
