Frieze patterns, as introduced by Coxeter in the 1970's, are closely related to cluster algebras without coefficients. A suitable generalization of frieze patterns, linked to cluster algebras with coefficients, has only briefly appeared in…
This article considers the positive integers $N$ for which $\zeta_{N}(s) = \sum_{n=1}^{N} n^{-s}$ has zeroes in the half-plane $\Re(s)>1$. Building on earlier results, we show that there are no zeroes for $1\leq N\leq 18$ and for $N=20, 21,…
Coxeter defined the notion of frieze pattern, and Conway and Coxeter proved that triangulations of polygons are in bijection with integral frieze patterns. We show a $p$-angulated generalisation involving non-integral frieze patterns. We…
A sequence in the additive group ${\mathbb Z}_n$ of integers modulo $n$ is called $n$-zero-free if it does not contain subsequences with length $n$ and sum zero. The article characterizes the $n$-zero-free sequences in ${\mathbb Z}_n$ of…
We study diophantine equations of the form ${a_1 + \ldots + a_n = 0}$ where the $a_i$'s are assumed to be coprime and to satisfy certain subsum conditions. We are interested in the limit superior of the qualities of the admissible solutions…
A Friedman number is a positive integer which is the result of an expression combining all of its own digits by use of the four basic operations, exponentiation and digit concatenation. A "nice" Friedman number is a Friedman number for…
In this article, we establish a relation between the values of a frieze of type D-tile and some values of an SL2-tiling t associated with a particular quiver of type A-tilde . This relation allows us to compute, independently of each other,…
Recently there has been significant progress in classifying integer friezes and $\text{SL}_2$-tilings. Typically, combinatorial methods are employed, involving triangulations of regions and inventive counting techniques. Here we develop a…
Given a pair of distinct non-CM normalized eigenforms having integer Fourier coefficients $a_1 (n)$ and $a_2(n)$, we count positive integers $n$ with $(a_1(n), a_2(n))=1$ and make a conjecture about the density of the set of primes $p$ for…
In the work of S. Petermichl, S. Treil and A. Volberg it was explicitly constructed that the Riesz transforms in any dimension $n \geq 2$ can be obtained as an average of dyadic Haar shifts provided that an integral is nonzero. It was shown…
A classic result of Conway and Coxeter on frieze patterns has been generalized to a bijection between $p$-angulations of regular polygons and frieze patterns of type $\Lambda_p$. One of the features of Conway-Coxeter theory is a…
Let n be an integer, and consider finite sequences of elements of the group Z/nZ x Z/nZ. Such a sequence is called zero-sum free, if no subsequence has sum zero. It is known that the maximal length of such a zero-sum free sequence is 2n-2,…
We study the behavior of partially twisted multiple zeta-functions. We give new closed and explicit formulas for special values at non-positive integer points of such zeta-functions. Our method is based on a result of M. de Crisenoy on the…
Let K be a number field, let f(x) in K(x) be a rational function of degree d> 1, and let z in K be a wandering point such that f^n(z) is nonzero for all n > 0. We prove that if the abc-conjecture holds for K, then for all but finitely many…
We consider a certain class of multiplicative functions $f: \mathbb N \rightarrow \mathbb C$ and study the distribution of zeros of Dirichlet polynomials $F_N(s)= \sum_{n\le N} f(n)n^{-s}$ corresponding to these functions. We prove that the…
Let $ K $ be a number field, $ S $ a finite set of places of $ K $, and $ \mathcal{O}_S $ be the ring of $ S $-integers. Moreover, let $$ G_n^{(0)} Z^d + \cdots + G_n^{(d-1)} Z + G_n^{(d)} $$ be a polynomial in $ Z $ having simple linear…
For coprime nonzero integers $a$ and $b$, a positive integer $\ell$ is said to be {\em good} with respect to $a$ and $b$ if there exists a positive integer $k$ such that $\ell |(a^{k}+b^{k})$. Since the early 1990s, such classical good…
A nonzero rational number is called a cube sum if it is of form $a^3+b^3$ with $a,b\in \mathbb{Q}^\times$. In this paper, we prove that for any odd integer $k\geq 1$, there exist infinitely many cube-free odd integers $n$ with exactly $k$…
How many ways can we write $n$ as a sum of $3$ positive integers, no pair of which share a common factor? We express this quantity in terms of the number of solutions to a certain class of linear Diophantine equations. This allows us to…
Nontrivial pairs of zero-divisors in group rings are introduced and discussed. A problem on the existence of nontrivial pairs of zero-divisors in group rings of free Burnside groups of odd exponent $n \gg 1$ is solved in the affirmative.…
