This paper presents a novel extension of the $\{1,2,3,1^{k}\}$-inverse concept to complex rectangular matrices, denoted as a $W$-weighted $\{1,2,3,1^{k}\}$-inverse (or $\{1',2',3',{1^{k}}'\}$-inverse), where the weight $W \in \mathbb{C}^{n…

In this paper we give alternate proofs of some well-known matrix inequalities. In particular, we show that under certain conditions the inequality holds \begin{align}\sum \limits_{\lambda_i\in \mathrm{Spec}(ab^{T})}\mathrm{min}\{\log…

We prove a generalization of Frieman's $3k-3$ theorem for the sumset $$ \Sigma^{l}(A_1,\ldots,A_k)=\{a_{j_{1}}+\cdots+a_{j_{l}}:\,1\leq j_{1}<\cdots<j_{l}\leq k,\ a_{j_{s}}\in A_{j_{s}}\text{ for all }s\}. $$

The following theorem is proved: Suppose $M = (a_{i,j})$ be a $k \times k$ matrix with positive entries and $a_{i,j}a_{i+1,j+1} > 4\cos ^2 \frac{\pi}{k+1} a_{i,j+1}a_{i+1,j} \quad (1 \leq i \leq k-1, 1 \leq j \leq k-1).$ Then $\det M > 0 .$…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a unital $\mathbf{C}^*$-algebra with unit $e$. We develop several inequalities for a positive linear functional $f$ on $\mathcal{A}$ and obtain several bounds for the numerical radius $v(a)$ of an element $a\in…

We show the following version of the Schur's product theorem. If $M=(M_{j,k})_{j,k=1}^n\in{\mathbb R}^{n\times n}$ is a positive semidefinite matrix with all entries on the diagonal equal to one, then the matrix $N=(N_{j,k})_{j,k=1}^n$ with…

In this paper, we prove some supercongruences concerning truncated hypergeometric series. For example, we show that for any prime $p>3$ and positive integer $r$, $$ \sum_{k=0}^{p^r-1}(3k+1)\frac{(\frac12)_k^3}{(1)_k^3}4^k\equiv…

We study the number $\nu(n)$ of representations of a positive integer $n$ by the form $x^3+y^3+z^3-3xyz$ in the conditions $0\leq x\leq y\leq z; z\geq x+1.$ We proved the following results: (i) for every positive $n,$ except for…

Newton's inequalities $c_n^2 \ge c_{n-1}c_{n+1}$ are shown to hold for the normalized coefficients $c_n$ of the characteristic polynomial of any $M$- or inverse $M$-matrix. They are derived by establishing first an auxiliary set of…

Let $A_{1}$, $A_{2}$, $...$, $A_{k}$ be strictly positive operators on a Hilbert space. This note is to show a sufficient condition of $A_{k}\geq A_{k-1}\geq\geq A_{3}\geq A_{2}\geq A_{1}$, which extends the related result before.

Given positive numbers p_1 < p_2 < ... < p_n, and a real number r let L_r be the n by n matrix with its (i,j) entry equal to (p_i^r-p_j^r)/(p_i-p_j). A well-known theorem of C. Loewner says that L_r is positive definite when 0 < r < 1. In…

Let $k \geq 3$. If a multiplicative function $f$ satisfies \[ f(a_1^3 + a_2^3 + \cdots + a_k^3) = f(a_1^3) + f(a_2^3) + \cdots + f(a_k^3) \] for all $a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_k \in \mathbb{N}$, then $f$ is the identity function. The set of…

In this paper, we prove that if $f(x)=\sum_{k=0}^n{n\choose k}a_kx^k$ is a polynomial with real zeros only, then the sequence $\{a_k\}_{k=0}^n$ satisfies the following inequalities $a_{k+1}^2(1-\sqrt{1-c_k})^2/a_k^2…

Given an integer $g$ and also some given integers $m$ (sufficiently large) and $c_1,\dots, c_m$, we show that the number of all non-negative integers $n\le M$ with the property that there exist non-negative integers $k_1,\dots, k_m$ such…

Let $S_k(m):=\sum_{j=1}^{m-1}j^k$ denote a power sum. In 2011, Kellner proposed the conjecture that for $m>3$ the ratio $S_k(m+1)/S_k(m)$ is never an integer, or, equivalently, that for any positive integer $a$, the equation $aS_k(m)=m^k$…

In this paper, we first give new generalizations for third-order Jacobsthal $\{J_{n}^{(3)}\}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ and third-order Jacobsthal-Lucas $\{j_{n}^{(3)}\}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ sequences for Jacobsthal and Jacobsthal-Lucas numbers.…

Let $\mathcal{S}$ denote the class of analytic and univalent ({\it i.e.}, one-to-one) functions $ f(z)= z+\sum_{n=2}^{\infty}a_n z^n$ in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}=\{z\in \mathbb{C}:|z|<1\}$. For $f\in \mathcal{S}$, In 1999, Ma proposed the…
