We prove that the constant terms of powers of a Laurent polynomial satisfy certain congruences modulo prime powers. As a corollary, the generating series of these numbers considered as a function of a p-adic variable satisfies a non-trivial…
We prove dynamical local limits for the singular numbers of $p$-adic random matrix products at both the bulk and edge. The limit object which we construct, the reflecting Poisson sea, may thus be viewed as a $p$-adic analogue of line…
The classical theory of continued fractions has been widely studied for centuries for its important properties of good approximation, and more recently it has been generalized to $p$-adic numbers where it presents many differences with…
In this paper we study some sophisticated supercongruences involving dual sequences. For $n=0,1,2,\ldots$ define $$d_n(x)=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom nk\binom xk2^k$$ and $$s_n(x)=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom nk\binom xk\binom{x+k}k=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom…
Using a generalized binomial transform and a novel binomial coefficient identity, we will show that the set of p-recursive sequences is closed under the binomial transform. Using these results, we will derive a new series representation for…
In this paper, we mutuate the concept of Ducci matrices to the $p$-adic setting, generalizing the classical Ducci sequences to the framework of $p$-adic numbers. The classical Ducci operator, which iteratively computes the absolute…
A collection of finite sets $\{A_1, A_2,\ldots, A_{p}\}$ is said to be a double-covering if each $a\in \cup_{k=1}^{p}A_k$ is included in exactly two sets of the collection. For fixed integers $l$ and $p$, let $\mu_{l,p}$ be the number of…
We provide lower bounds for p-adic valuations of multisums of factorial ratios which satisfy an Ap\'ery-like recurrence relation: these include Ap\'ery, Domb, Franel numbers, the numbers of abelian squares over a finite alphabet, and…
In [Pollack-Stevens 2011], efficient algorithms are given to compute with overconvergent modular symbols. These algorithms then allow for the fast computation of $p$-adic $L$-functions and have further been applied to compute rational…
In this paper we prove complete $p$-adic analogues of Kleinbock's theorems \cite{Kleinbock-extremal, Kleinbock-exponent} on inheritance of Diophantine exponents for affine subspaces. In particular, we answer in the affirmative (and in a…
Many generating series of combinatorially interesting numbers have the property that the sum of the terms of order $<p$ at some suitable point is congruent to a zero of a zeta-function modulo infinitely many primes $p$. Surprisingly, very…
We present a novel way of realizing the Bernoulli shift on $p$ symbols on the $p$-adic integers, where $p$ is a prime. By showing that suitably small perturbations of the shift are still Bernoulli we find many "nice" maps, such as…
We propose a new method of analyzing the asymptotics of moments of certain linear random recurrences which is based on the technique of iterative functions. By using the method, we show that the moments of the number of collisions and the…
We establish existence results for a class of mixed anisotropic and nonlocal $p$-Laplace equation with singular nonlinearities. We consider both constant and variable singular exponents. Our argument is based on an approximation method. To…
We use Hensel minimality, a non-Archimedean analog of o-minimality, to study several questions around transcendental number theory, unlikely intersections, and differential fields in a non-Archimedean setting. In particular, we focus on…
The notion of Fej\'er monotonicity is instrumental in unifying the convergence proofs of many iterative methods, such as the Krasnoselskii-Mann iteration, the proximal point method, the Douglas-Rachford splitting algorithm, and many others.…
Likelihood-based methods of statistical inference provide a useful general methodology that is appealing, as a straightforward asymptotic theory can be applied for their implementation. It is important to assess the relationships between…
Using proof-theoretical techniques, we analyze a proof by H.-K. Xu regarding a result of strong convergence for the Halpern type proximal point algorithm. We obtain a rate of metastability (in the sense of T. Tao) and also a rate of…
By Zeckendorf's Theorem, every positive integer is uniquely written as a sum of non-adjacent terms of the Fibonacci sequence, and its converse states that if a sequence in the positive integers has this property, it must be the Fibonacci…
We study solutions of three-term recurrence relations whose $N$-step transfer matrices belong to the uniform Stolz class. In particular, we derive the first order of their uniform asymptotics. For orthonormal polynomials we show more.…
