We discuss how to write down three specific natural numbers $A$, $B$, $C$ such that for any real number $r$ you've probably ever thought of, it is consistent with $\mathsf{ZFC}$ set theory that $$\def\Rb{\mathbb{R}}\def\Nb{\mathbb{N}}r =…
The relation between representations and positive definite functions is a key concept in harmonic analysis on topological groups. Recently this relation has been studied on topological groupoids. This is the second in a series of papers in…
We find all finite Ockham algebras that admit only finitely many compatible relations (modulo a natural equivalence). Up to isomorphism and symmetry, these Ockham algebras form two countably infinite families: one family consists of the…
Let $A$ be a nonempty finite set of $k$ integers. Given a subset $B$ of $A$, the sum of all elements of $B$, denoted by $s(B)$, is called the subset sum of $B$. For a nonnegative integer $\alpha$ ($\leq k$), let \[\Sigma_{\alpha}…
We take the first step toward a structure theory that includes both operations of a ring $\mathcal{R}$. More precisely, we prove a series of inverse results for the structure of sets $A\subseteq \mathbf{F}_p$ such that, under certain…
A sequence inverse relationship can be defined by a pair of infinite inverse matrices. If the pair of matrices are the same, they define a dual relationship. Here presented is a unified approach to construct dual relationships via…
We pose 100 new conjectures on representations involving primes or related things, which might interest number theorists and stimulate further research. Below are five typical examples: (i) For any positive integer $n$, there exists…
We prove an abstract criterion that a surjective convolution operator in spaces of analytic functions on convex subsets of the complex plane has a continuous linear right inverse. Considered convex sets have a countable neighborhood basis…
Farey sequences, Stern-Brocot sequences, the Calkin-Wilf sequences are shown to be generated via almost identical second order recurrence relations. These sequences have combinatorial, computational, and geometric applications, and are…
Conceiving of premises as collected into sets or multisets, instead of sequences, may lead to triviality for classical and intuitionistic logic in general proof theory, where we investigate identity of deductions. Any two deductions with…
A numeral system is an infinite sequence of different closed normal $\lambda$-terms intended to code the integers in $\lambda$-calculus. H. Barendregt has shown that if we can represent, for a numeral system, the functions : Successor,…
In this paper we prove a number of results concerning uniqueness of a meromorphic function as well as its derivative sharing one or two sets. In particular, we deal with the specific question raised in [18], [19], [20] and ultimately…
Counting functions are constructed for sums of integers raised to a fixed positive rational power. That is, given values formed by $u_1^{j/k} + u_2^{j/k} + ... + u_l^{j/k}$, $u_i \in \mathbb{Z}^+$, the number of values less than or equal to…
The balancing numbers $B_n$ ($n=0,1,\cdots$) are solutions of the binary recurrence $B_n=6B_{n-1}-B_{n-2}$ ($n\ge 2$) with $B_0=0$ and $B_1=1$. In this paper we show several relations about the sums of product of two balancing numbers of…
There are many contexts in algebraic geometry, algebraic topology, and homological algebra where one encounters a functor that has both a left and right adjoint, with the right adjoint being isomorphic to a shift of the left adjoint…

We present a versatile construction allowing one to obtain pairs of integer sets with infinite symmetric difference, infinite intersection, and identical representation functions.
We investigate how various forms of bisimulation can be characterised using the technology of logical relations. The approach taken is that each form of bisimulation corresponds to an algebraic structure derived from a transition system,…
This paper gives a coherent and comprehensive review of the results concerning the inverse Langevin L(x) and Brillouin functions B_J (x) and of the inverse of L(x)/x and B_J (x)/x. As these functions are used in several fields of physics,…
We consider $n$-sided dice whose face values lie between $1$ and $n$ and whose faces sum to $n(n+1)/2$. For two dice $A$ and $B$, define $A \succ B$ if it is more likely for $A$ to show a higher face than $B$. Suppose $k$ such dice…
