As part of a program to develop $K$-theoretic analogues of combinatorially important polynomials, Monical, Pechenik, and Searles (2021) proved two expansion formulas $\overline{\mathfrak{A}}_a = \sum_b Q_b^a(\beta)\overline{\mathfrak{P}}_b$…

We establish asymptotic formulae for the number of $k$-free values of polynmilas $F(x_1,\cdots,x_n)\in\mathbb{Z}[x_1,\cdots,x_n]$ of degree $d\geq 2$ for any $n\geq 1$, including when the variables are prime, as long as $k\geq (3d+1)/4$.…

Let $k\geq1$ be a fixed integer, and $\mathcal P_N$ be the set of primes no more than $N$. We prove that if a set $\mathcal A\subset\mathcal P_N$ contains no patterns $p_1,p_1+(p_2-1)^k$, where $p_1,p_2$ are prime numbers, then \[…

We examine the behavior of the number of $k$-term arithmetic progressions in a random subset of $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$. We prove that if a set is chosen by including each element of $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$ independently with constant…

Let \q be a simple algebraic group of type A or C over a field of good positive characteristic. We show for any x \in \q =\Lie(Q) that the invariant algebra S(\q_x)^{\q_x} is generated by the p^{th} power subalgebra and the mod p reduction…

In this paper we prove that polynomials $F(x_1, \cdots, x_n) \in \mathbb{Z}[x_1, \cdots, x_n]$ of degree $d \geq 3$, satisfying certain hypotheses, take on the expected density of $(d-1)$-free values. This extends the authors' earlier…

In 2000 Deaconescu raised a question whether there exists a composite $n$ for which $S_2(n)|\phi(n)-1$, where $\phi(n)$ is Euler's function and $S_2(n)$ is Schemmel's totient function. In this paper we prove that any such $n$ is odd,…

Many results in harmonic analysis and geometric measure theory ensure the existence of geometric configurations under the largeness of sets, which are sometimes specified via the ball condition and Fourier decay. Recently,…
