We study the problem of determining which integer polynomials divide Newman polynomials. In this vein, we first give results concerning the $8438$ known polynomials with Mahler measure less than $1.3$. We then exhibit a list of polynomials…
Kummer's conjecture predicts the asymptotic growth of the relative class number of prime cyclotomic fields. We substantially improve the known bounds of Kummer's ratio under three scenarios: no Siegel zero, presence of Siegel zero and…
In this paper, we address the Skolem problem for the $k$-generalized Pell sequence $(P_n^{(k)})_{n\geq2-k}$ extended to negative indices. We focus on identifying and bounding the indices $n<0$ for which $P_n^{(k)}=0.$ In particular, we…
In this paper we study Appell polynomials by connecting them to random variables. This probabilistic approach yields, e.g., the mean value property which is fundamental in the sense that many other properties can be derived from it. We also…
This paper proves the existence of nonmeasurable dense sets with additional properties using combinatorial techniques.
We prove that every Mahler series, over a field of characteristic $0$, with multiplicative coefficients is regular in the sense of Allouche and Shallit. We also obtain an explicit characterization of such series. This yields a joint…
The Riemann hypothesis states that all nontrivial zeros of the zeta function lie on the critical line $\Re(s)=1/2$. Hilbert and P\'olya suggested a possible approach to prove it, based on spectral theory. Within this context, some authors…
This article provides a synthesis of recent advances in the study of the PI property in various classes of noncommutative algebras of polynomial type.
In this article, we derive a congruence property of particular sum rules involving prime numbers. The resulting expression involves Bernoulli numbers and polynomials, for which we obtain, as a consequence, a general congruence relation as…
The Appell-type polynomial family corresponding to the simplest non-commutative derivative operator turns out to be connected with the Boolean probability theory, the simplest of the three universal non-commutative probability theories (the…
The Gessel number $P(n,r)$ represents the number of lattice paths in a plane with unit horizontal and vertical steps from $(0,0)$ to $(n+r,n+r-1)$ that never touch any of the points from the set $\{(x,x)\in \mathbb{Z}^2: x \geq r\}$. In…
We introduce the super Patalan numbers, a generalization of the super Catalan numbers in the sense of Gessel, and prove a number of properties analagous to those of the super Catalan numbers. The super Patalan numbers generalize the super…
In this article, we prove a generalisation of the Mertens theorem for prime numbers to number fields and algebraic varieties over finite fields, paying attention to the genus of the field (or the Betti numbers of the variety), in order to…
We formally prove the existence of an enduring incongruence pervading a widespread interpretation of the Bell inequality and explain how to rationally avoid it with a natural assumption justified by explicit reference to a mathematical…
We present a certain generalization of a recent result of M. I. Cirnu on linear recurrence relations with coefficient in progressions [2]. We provide some interesting examples related to some well-known integer sequences, such as Fibonacci…
A general structure theorem on higher order invariants is proven. For an arithmetic group, the structure of the corresponding Hecke module is determined. It is shown that the module does not contain any irreducible submodule. This explains…
Let $p$ be a prime number, $a_1, a_2, \ldots a_{4p-4}$ a sequence of elements in $(\mathbb{Z}/p\\mathbb{Z})^2$, which does not contain a subsequence of length $p$ which adds up to 0. We show that if $p$ is sufficiently large, then the…
We present a direct proof of the fact that the weak-$L^1$ and weak-$\ell^1$ spaces do not have type $1$.
Given a finite set $S$ of places of a number field, we prove that the field of totally $S$-adic algebraic numbers is not Hilbertian.
Let $(U_n)_{n\geq 0}$ be a fixed linear recurrence sequence of integers with order at least two, and for any positive integer $\ell$, let $\ell \cdot 2^{\ell} + 1$ be a Cullen number. Recently in \cite{bmt}, generalized Cullen numbers in…
