Recently, Araci-Acikgoz-Sen derived some interesting identities on weighted q-Euler polynomials and higher-order q-Euler polynomials from the applications of umbral calculus (See [1]). In this paper, we develop the new method of q-umbral…
Let $q$ be a power of a prime, let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field with $q$ elements and let $n \geq 2$. For a polynomial $h(x) \in \mathbb{F}_q[x]$ of degree $n \in \mathbb{N}$ and a subset $W \subseteq [0,n] := \{0, 1, \ldots, n\}$, we…
In this paper we prove that assuming Schanuel's conjecture, an exponential polynomial in one variable over the algebraic numbers has only finitely many algebraic solutions. This implies a positive answer to Shapiro's conjecture for…
In this work, we establish modular parameterizations for two general formulas for $\frac{1}{\pi}$ that subsume conjectural Ramanujan type formulas due to Z.-W. Sun, which have remained open since 2011. As an application of this, in a…
We realize that geometric polynomials and p-Bernoulli polynomials and numbers are closely related with an integral representation. Therefore, using geometric polynomials, we extend some properties of Bernoulli polynomials and numbers such…
Let $A$ be a subset of $\mathbb{Z} / N\mathbb{Z}$ and let $\mathcal{R}$ be the set of large Fourier coefficients of $A$. Properties of $\mathcal{R}$ have been studied in works of M.-- C. Chang, B. Green and the author. In the paper we…
Most integers are composite and most univariate polynomials over a finite field are reducible. The Prime Number Theorem and a classical result of Gau{\ss} count the remaining ones, approximately and exactly. For polynomials in two or more…
In this paper, we deal with q-Euler numbers and q-Bernoulli numbers. We derive some interesting relations for q-Euler numbers and polynomials by using their generating function and derivative operator. Also, we show between the q-Euler…
In terms of the operator method, we prove two conjectural series for $\pi$ of Sun involving harmonic numbers of order two. Furthermore, we also give $q$-analogues of six $\pi$-formulas including the two ones just mentioned.
We introduce the inversion polynomial for Dedekind sums $f_b(x)=\sum x^{\operatorname{inv}(a,b)}$ to study the number of $s(a,b)$ which have the same value for given $b$. We prove several properties of this polynomial and present some…
For any integer $x$, let $T_x$ denote the triangular number $\frac{x(x+1)}{2}$. In this paper we give a complete characterization of all the triples of positive integers $(\alpha, \beta, \gamma)$ for which the ternary sums $\alpha x^2…
We introduce a collection of polynomials $F_N$, associated to each positive integer $N$, whose divisibility properties yield a reformulation of the Goldbach conjecture. While this reformulation certainly does not lead to a resolution of the…
In this note, we prove two supercongruences involving Almkvist--Zudilin sequences, which were originally conjectured by Z.-H. Sun.
In this paper, we pose many challenging conjectures on congruences involving binomial coefficients and Ap\'ery-like numbers.
We obtain new partial results supporting the spectral set conjecture in dimension 1.
Inspired by the recent work of El Bachraoui, we present some new $q$-supercongruences on triple and quadruple sums of basic hypergeometric series. In particular, we give a $q$-supercongruence modulo the fifth power of a cyclotomic…
In 2017, He [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 145 (2017), 501--508] established two spuercongruences on truncated hypergeometric series and further proposed two related conjectures. Subsequently, Liu [Results Math. 72 (2017), 2057--2066] extended…
In this paper we state some conjectures about q-Fibonacci polynomials which for q=1 reduce to well-known results about Fibonacci numbers and Fibonacci polynomials.
Recently, an analogue over $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ of Landau's theorem on sums of two squares was considered by Bary-Soroker, Smilansky and Wolf. They counted the number of monic polynomials in $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ of degree $n$ of the form…
Wang and Sun proved a certain summatory formula involving derangements and primitive roots of the unit. We study such a formula but for the particular case of the set of affine derangements in $\overrightarrow{GL}(\mathbb{Z}/2k\mathbb{Z})$…
