We establish a characterization (under some natural conditions) of those orders in Dedekind domains which allow a transfer homomorphism to a monoid of zero-sum sequences. As a consequence, the inclusion map to the Dedekind domain is a…

In this paper, we analyze the set of all possible aggregate distributions of the sum of standard uniform random variables, a simply stated yet challenging problem in the literature of distributions with given margins. Our main results are…

We introduce a natural definition for sums of the form \[ \sum_{\nu=1}^x f(\nu) \] when the number of terms x is a rather arbitrary real or even complex number. The resulting theory includes the known interpolation of the factorial by the…

Zeckendorf's Theorem states that any positive integer can be written uniquely as a sum of non-adjacent Fibonacci numbers. We consider higher-dimensional lattice analogues, where a legal decomposition of a number $n$ is a collection of…

We prove the uniqueness of a translation invariant extension to non integer order classical symbols of the ordinary discrete sum on $L^1$-symbols, which we then describe using an Hadamard finite part procedure for sums over integer points…

We give explicit, polynomial-time computable formulas for the number of integer points in any two-dimensional rational polygon. A rational polygon is one whose vertices have rational coordinates. We find that the basic building blocks of…

In this paper, we present new objects, quilts of alternating sign matrices with respect to two given posets. Quilts generalize several commonly used concepts in mathematics. For example, the rank function on submatrices of a matrix gives…

We introduce some new higher dimensional generalizations of the Dedekind sums associated with the Bernoulli functions and of those Hardy sums which are defined by the sawtooth function. We generalize a variant of Parseval's formula for the…

A categorification of the Beilinson-Lusztig-MacPherson form of the quantum sl(2) was constructed in the paper arXiv:0803.3652 by the second author. Here we enhance the graphical calculus introduced and developed in that paper to include…

We provide a uniform bound on the partial sums of multiplicative functions under very general hypotheses. As an application, we give a nearly optimal estimate for the count of $n \le x$ for which the Alladi-Erd\H{o}s function $A(n) =…

Using techniques introduced by D. Mayer, we prove an extension of the classical Gauss-Kuzmin theorem about the distribution of continued fractions, which in particular allows one to take into account some congruence properties of successive…

Finite trigonometric sums appear in various branches of Physics, Mathematics and their applications. For p; q to coprime positive integers and r we consider the finite trigonometric sums involving the product of three trigonometric…

Using the theory of metaplectic forms,we study the asymptotic behavior of cubic exponential sums over the ring of Eisenstein integers. In the first part of the paper, some non-trivial estimates on average over arithmetic progressions are…

For a given family $(G_i)_{i \in \N}$ of finitely generated abelian groups, we construct a Dedekind domain $D$ having the following properties. \begin{enumerate} \item $\Pic(D) \cong \bigoplus_{i \in \N}G_i$. \item For each $i \in \N$,…

We obtain several asymptotic formulas for the sum of the divisor function $\tau(n)$ with $n \le x$ in an arithmetic progressions $n \equiv a \pmod q$ on average over $a$ from a set of several consecutive elements from set of reduced…

For an odd integer $d > 1$ and a finite Galois extension $K/\mathbb{Q}$ of degree $d$, G. L\"{u} and Z. Yang \cite{lu3} obtained an asymptotic formula for the mean values of the divisor function for $K$ over square integers. In this…

Zeckendorf proved that any integer can be decomposed uniquely as a sum of non-adjacent Fibonacci numbers, $F_n$. Using continued fractions, Lekkerkerker proved the average number of summands of an $m \in [F_n, F_{n+1})$ is essentially…

We give an abstract categorical treatment of Plonka sums and products using lax and oplax morphisms of monads. Plonka sums were originally defined as operations on algebras of regular theories. Their arities are sup-semilattices. It turns…

We propose (and prove under some restrictions) that the square class of the central value of the $L$-function of an everywhere unramified symplectic Galois representation is given by a universal cohomological formula. This phenomenon is…
