Iterative equation is an equality with an unknown function and its iterates. There were not found a result on iterative equations with multiplication of iterates of the unknown function on $\mathbb{R}$. In this paper we use an exponential…

We describe efficient algorithms to search for cases in which binomial coefficients are equal or almost equal, give a conjecturally complete list of all cases where two binomial coefficients differ by 1, and give some identities for…

In this paper we consider Diophantine equations of the form $f(x)=g(y)$ where $f$ has simple rational roots and $g$ has rational coefficients. We give strict conditions for the cases where the equation has infinitely many solutions in…

We analyze, mainly using bifurcation methods, an elliptic superlinear problem in one-dimension with periodic boundary conditions. One of the main novelties is that we follow for the first time a bifurcation approach, relying on a…

We consider a self-convolutive recurrence whose solution is the sequence of coefficients in the asymptotic expansion of the logarithmic derivative of the confluent hypergeometic function $U(a,b,z)$. By application of the Hilbert transform…

We study systematically groups whose marked finite quotients form a recursive set. We give several definitions, and prove basic properties of this class of groups, and in particular emphasize the link between the growth of the depth…

We consider a class of doubly intermittent maps with critical points, unbounded derivative and regularly varying tails. Under some mild assumptions we prove the existence of a unique mixing absolutely continuous invariant measure and give…

This article resolves two related problems in Ramsey theory on the integers. We show that for any finite coloring of the set of natural numbers, there exist numbers $a$ and $b$ for which the configuration $\{a, b, ab, a(b+1)\}$ is…

Using elementary number theory we study Diophantine equations over the rational integers of the following form, $y^2=(x+a)(x+a+k)(x+b)(x+b+k)$, $y^2=c^2x^4+ax^2+b$ and $y^2=(x^2-1)(x^2-\alpha^2)(x^2-(\alpha+1)^2).$ We express their integer…

We give explicit examples of pairs of one-ended, open 4-manifolds whose end-sums yield uncountably many manifolds with distinct proper homotopy types. This answers strongly in the affirmative a conjecture of Siebenmann regarding the…

We study the Diophantine equation of type $U_n(x)=V_m(y)$, where $(U_n)_{n\geq 0}$ and $(V_m)_{m\geq 0}$ are polynomial power sums defined over a number field $K$. By applying the finiteness criterion of Bilu and Tichy, we show under…

We give conditions on the rational numbers a,b,c which imply that there are infinitely many triples (x,y,z) of rational numbers such that x+y+z=a+b+c and xyz=abc. We do the same for the equations x+y+z=a+b+c and x^3+y^3+z^3=a^3+b^3+c^3.…

In this paper, we use a variety of classical and new research methods for ternary exponential Diophantine equations and extensive use of computer calculations to study the conjecture of R. Scott and R. Styer which asserts that for any fixed…

We give a new method to calculate the universal cohomology classes of coincident root loci. We show a polynomial behavior of them and apply this result to prove that generalized Pl\"ucker formulas are polynomials in the degree, just as the…

In this paper we generalize to bivariate polynomials of Fibonacci and Lucas, properties obtained for Chebyshev polynomials. We prove that the coordinates of the bivariate polynomials over appropriate basis are families of integers…

We derive several explicit formulae for finding infinitely many solutions of the equation $AXA=XAX$, when $A$ is singular. We start by splitting the equation into a couple of linear matrix equations and then show how the projectors…

This paper concerns elliptic systems of $p$-Laplace type with complex valued coefficient and source term. We extend the real valued theory of the elliptic $p$-Laplace equation to the complex valued case. We establish the existence and…

We classify integer abc-equations c = a + b (to be defined), according to their radical R(abc) and prove that the resulting equivalence classes contain only a finite number of such equations. The proof depends on a 1933 theorem of Kurt…

We obtain the solution of the fourth order difference equation $$ x_{n+1}=\frac{ \alpha x_{n-3}}{A+B x_{n-1}x_{n-3}}$$ with the initial conditions; $x_{-3}=d,$ $x_{-2}=c,$ $x_{-1}=b,$ and $x_{0}=a$ are arbitrary nonzero real numbers,…

When searching for Calabi.Yau differential equations, often different formulas for the coefficients give the same differential equation. The coefficients are usually sums (simple, double or triple) of products of binomial coefficients. This…
