Recently Andrews and Bachraoui proved identities relating certain restricted partitions into distinct even parts with restricted 4-regular partitions by the theory of basic hypergeometric series. They also posed a question regarding…
The geometric and algebraic theory of monomial ideals and multigraded modules is initiated over real-exponent polynomial rings and, more generally, monoid algebras for real polyhedral cones. The main results include the generalization of…
Parity binomial edge ideals of simple undirected graphs are introduced. Unlike binomial edge ideals, they do not have square-free Gr\"obner bases and are radical if only if the graph is bipartite or the characteristic of the ground field is…
In a recent paper, the author proved that if $n\geq 3$ is a natural number, $R$ a commutative ring and $\sigma\in GL_n(R)$, then $t_{kl}(\sigma_{ij})$ where $i\neq j$ and $k\neq l$ can be expressed as a product of $8$ matrices of the form…
For a weighted tree, the Lin--Lu--Yau Ricci curvature admits an explicit formula in terms of the edge weights. Consequently, the constant-curvature equation is equivalent to an eigenvalue problem for an edge-indexed Ricci matrix $R_T$.…
A linear mapping upon real n-dimensional space, where the dimension n is odd, has a real eigenvalue-eigenvector pair. The corresponding statement for complex vector spaces holds true for any dimension n, but should be easy to demonstrate…
This is an exposition of the following `weak' Erd\H{o}s-Szemer\'edi conjecture for integer sets proved by Bourgain and Chang in 2004. For any $\gamma > 0$ there exists $\Lambda(\gamma) > 0$ such that for an arbitrary $A \subset \mathbb{N}$,…
The goal of this article is to present the graded weakly $S$-primary ideals and $g$-weakly $S$-primary ideals which are extensions of graded weakly primary ideals. Let $R$ be a commutative graded ring, $S\subseteq h(R)$ and $P$ be a graded…
By extending the notion of spin of prime ideals, we show that a short character sum conjecture implies that the set of primes raising the level of a certain even Galois representation has density 2/3, as conjectured by Ramakrishna in 1998.
We show that, for each real number $\alpha > 0$ and odd integer $k\ge 5$ there is an integer $c$ such that, if $M$ is a simple binary matroid with $|M| \ge \alpha 2^{r(M)}$ and with no $k$-element circuit, then $M$ has critical number at…
The Erdos-Straus conjecture (ESC) concerns the representation of the fraction 4/P, where P is a prime number, as a sum of three positive unit fractions. The focus here is on the case when P is congruent to 1 modulo 4. Two constructive…
The paper presents a classification of quadratic extension algebras, also known as algebras of degree 2, as well as several characterizations of quaternion algebras over a field (of characteristic not 2). The presentation is not restricted…
We show that if two continuous semi-simple \(\ell \)-adic Galois representations are locally potentially equivalent at a sufficiently large set of places then they are globaly potentially equivalent. We also prove an analogous result for…
We consider the Laplacian and its fractional powers of order less than one on the complement $\mathbb{R}^d\setminus\Sigma$ of a given compact set $\Sigma\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ of zero Lebesgue measure. Depending on the size of $\Sigma$, the…
A \emph{locally irregular graph} is a graph whose adjacent vertices have distinct degrees. We say that a graph $G$ can be decomposed into $k$ locally irregular subgraphs if its edge set may be partitioned into $k$ subsets each of which…
Let p(w) denote the probability that four random circular caps of angular radius 70deg<w<90deg cover the unit sphere S^2. An exact expression for p(w) is unknown. We give nontrivial lower bounds for p(w) when w>84deg; no improvement on the…
A prime ring $R$ with extended centroid $C$ is said to be exceptional if both $\text{\rm char}\,R=2$ and $\dim_CRC=4$. Herstein characterized additive subgroups $A$ of a nonexceptional simple ring $R$ satisfying $\big[A, [R,…
We give a characterization of the graphs with at most three trivial characteristic ideals. This implies the complete characterization of the regular graphs whose critical groups have at most three invariant factors equal to 1 and the…
We introduce a general axiomatic framework for algebras with triangular decomposition, which allows for a systematic study of the Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand Category $\mathcal{O}$. The framework is stated via three relatively simple axioms;…
When the fundamental invariant of $SLq(2)$ is expressed as $\epsilon_q = (\matrix{0 & \alpha_2 \cr -\alpha_1 & 0})$, then the deformation parameter, $q$, defining the knot algebra is $q = \frac{\alpha_1}{\alpha_2}$. We consider models in…
