We propose an efficient computational method for finding all solutions $n\leq U$ to the Diophantine equation $a\sigma(n) = bn + c$, where integer coefficient $a,b,c$ and an upper bound $U$ are given. Our method is implemented in SageMath…

We prove that for given integers b and c, the diophantine equation x^2+bx+c=y^2, has finitely many integer solutions(i.e. pairs in ZxZ),in fact an even number of such solutions(including the zero or no solutions case).We also offer an…

In this paper we consider the Diophantine equation $x^2+q^{2m}=2y^p$ where $m,p,q,x,y$ are integer unknowns with $m>0,$ $p$ and $q$ are odd primes and $\gcd(x,y)=1.$ We prove that there are only finitely many solutions $(m,p,q,x,y)$ for…

The cohomology ring of a finite group, with coefficients in a finite field, can be computed by a machine, as Carlson has showed. Here "compute" means to find a presentation in terms of generators and relations, and involves only the…

We introduce a family of maps generating continued fractions where the digit $1$ in the numerator is replaced cyclically by some given non-negative integers $(N_1,\ldots,N_m)$. We prove the convergence of the given algorithm, and study the…

We use the method of interlacing families of polynomials introduced to prove two theorems known to imply a positive solution to the Kadison--Singer problem. The first is Weaver's conjecture $KS_{2}$ \cite{weaver}, which is known to imply…

We study integrals over Hermitian supermatrices of arbitrary size $p+q$, that are parametrized by an external field $X$ and a source $Y$, of respective size $m+n$ and $p+q$. We show that these integrals exhibit a simple topological…

We prove new results, related to the Littlewood and Mixed Littlewood conjectures in Diophantine approximation.

Recursive formulas are derived for the number of solutions of linear and quadratic Diophantine equations with positive coefficients. This result is further extended to general non-linear additive Diophantine equations. It is shown that all…

This paper analyzes the structure of the set of nodal solutions of a class of one-dimensional superlinear indefinite boundary values problems with an indefinite weight functions in front of the spectral parameter. Quite astonishingly, the…

Motivated by a question of van der Poorten about the existence of infinite chain of prime numbers (with respect to some base), in this paper we advance the study of sequences of consecutive polynomials whose coefficients are chosen…

Given the first 20-100 coefficients of a typical generating function of the type that arises in many problems of statistical mechanics or enumerative combinatorics, we show that the method of differential approximants performs surprisingly…

We study the functional equation $A\circ X=X\circ B$, where $A,$ $B$, and $X$ are polynomials over $\mathbb C$. Using previous results of the author about polynomials sharing preimages of compact sets, we show that for given $B$ its…

We classify the polynomials $f(x,y) \in \mathbb R[x,y]$ such that given any finite set $A \subset \mathbb R$ if $|A+A|$ is small, then $|f(A,A)|$ is large. In particular, the following bound holds : $|A+A||f(A,A)| \gtrsim |A|^{5/2}.$ The…

Recall that the Hilbert (Riemann-Hilbert) boundary value problem was recently solved in \cite{R1} for arbitrary measurable coefficients and for arbitrary measurable boundary data in terms of nontangential limits and principal asymptotic…

We give solutions of a Diophantine equation containing factorials, which can be written as a cubic form, or as a sum of binomial coefficients. We also give some solutions to higher degree forms and relate some solutions to an unsolvable…

We present a finite-order system of recurrence relations for a permanent of circulant matrices containing a band of k any-value diagonals on top of a uniform matrix (for k = 1, 2, and 3) as well as the method for deriving such recurrence…

Solutions to the random Fibonacci recurrence x_{n+1}=x_{n} + or - Bx_{n-1} decrease (increase) exponentially, x_{n} = exp(lambda n), for sufficiently small (large) B. In the limits B --> 0 and B --> infinity, we expand the Lyapunov exponent…

For a sequence of polynomials $\{p_k(t)\}$ in one real or complex variable, where $p_k$ has degree $k$, for $k\ge 0$, we find explicit expressions and recurrence relations for infinite matrices whose entries are the coefficients $d(n,m,k)$,…

We answer two questions of Kra, Moreira, Richter and Robertson regarding the existence of infinite sumsets of the form $B + C$ in dense and sparse sets of integers and the relation of sumsets to sets of recurrence. We then further…
