In this note we associate a sequence of non-negative integers to any convergent series of positive real numbers and study this sequence for the series $\sum_{n \geq 1} n^{-k}$ where $k$ is an integer $\geq 2$.
When two boundary-parabolic representations of knot groups are given, we introduce the connected sum of these representations and show several natural properties including the unique factorization property. Furthermore, the complex volume…
Quickly convergent series are given to compute polyzeta numbers. The formula involves an intricate combination of (generalized) polylogarithms at 1/2. However, the combinatorics has a very simple geometric interpretation: it corresponds…
A slice decomposition is an expression of a homogeneous polynomial as a sum of forms with a linear factor. A strength decomposition is an expression of a homogeneous polynomial as a sum of reducible forms. The slice rank and strength of a…
An n-simplex is called circumscriptible (or edge-incentric) if there is a sphere tangent to all its n(n + 1)/2 edges. We obtain a closed formula for the radius of the circumscribed sphere of the circumscriptible n-simplex, and also prove a…
In this paper we introduce the galaxy of Coxeter groups -- an infinite dimensional, locally finite, ranked simplicial complex which captures isomorphisms between Coxeter systems. In doing so, we would like to suggest a new framework to…
We count subrings of small index of $\mathbb{Z}^n$, where the addition and multiplication are defined componentwise. Let $f_n(k)$ denote the number of subrings of index $k$. For any $n$, we give a formula for this quantity for all integers…
The general solution of the graded contraction equations for a $\zz_2^{\otimes N}$ grading of the real compact simple Lie algebra $so(N+1)$ is presented in an explicit way. It turns out to depend on $2^N-1$ independent real parameters. The…
We define vertex cover algebras for weighted simplicial multicomplexes and prove basics properties of them. Also, we describe these algebras for multicomplexes which have only one maximal facet and we prove that they are finitely generated.
The paper shows that almost every $n$-vertex graph is such that the multiset of its induced subgraphs on $3 \log_2{n}$ vertices is sufficient to determine it up to isomorphism. Therefore, for checking the isomorphism of a pair of $n$-vertex…
We define and study complex structures and generalizations on spaces consisting of geodesics or harmonic maps that are compatible with the symmetries of these spaces. The main results are about existence and uniqueness of such structures.
Although previous research has found several facts concerning chord lengths of regular polytopes, none of these investigations has considered whether any of these facts define relationships that might generalize to the chord lengths of all…
The discrete acyclic convolution computes the 2n-1 sums sum_{i+j=k; (i,j) in [0,1,2,...,n-1]^2} (a_i b_j) in O(n log n) time. By using suitable offsets and setting some of the variables to zero, this method provides a tool to calculate all…
Let $X$ be a finite collection of sets. We count the number of ways a disjoint union of $n-1$ subsets in $X$ is a set in $X$, and estimate this number from above by $|X|^{c(n)}$ where $$ c(n)=\left(1-\frac{(n-1)\ln (n-1)}{n\ln n}…
In this note, we study the flint hills series of the form \begin{align} \sum \limits_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{1}{(\sin^2n) n^3}\nonumber \end{align} via a certain method. The method essentially works by erecting certain pillars sufficiently…
We study multiplicative nested sums, which are generalizations of harmonic sums, and provide a calculation through multiplication of index matrices. Special cases interpret the index matrices as stochastic transition matrices of random…
A graph is called (generically) rigid in $\mathbb{R}^d$ if, for any choice of sufficiently generic edge lengths, it can be embedded in $\mathbb{R}^d$ in a finite number of distinct ways, modulo rigid transformations. Here we deal with the…
The object under study is a particular closed curve on the square lattice $\Z^2$ related with the Fibonacci sequence $F_n$. It belongs to a class of curves whose length is $4F_{3n+1}$, and whose interiors by translation tile the plane. The…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the sum of n subspaces of a Hilbert space to be closed. We also present various properties of n-tuples of subspaces with closed sum.
Let n be a positive integer, and let R be a finitely presented (but not necessarily finite dimensional) associative algebra over a computable field. We examine algorithmic tests for deciding (1) if every n-dimensional representation of R is…
