New formulae are presented for the number $P(b)$ of non-negative integer solutions of a Diophantine equation $\sum_{i=1}^{n}a_ix_i=b$ and for the number $Q(b)$ of non-negative integer solutions of the Diophantine inequality…

Let $M(x)=\sum_{1\le n\le x}\mu(n)$ where $\mu$ is the M\"obius function. It is well-known that the Riemann Hypothesis is equivalent to the assertion that $M(x)=O(x^{1/2+\epsilon})$ for all $\epsilon>0$. There has been much interest and…

For every symmetric mean $\mathscr{M} \colon \bigcup_{n=1}^\infty I^n \to I$ (where $I$ an interval) and a nonzero function $W \colon \{1,\dots,n\} \to \mathbb{N} \cup \{0\}$, define an $n$-variable mean by…

We improve the classical discrete Hardy inequality \begin{equation*}\label{1} \sum _{{n=1}}^{\infty }a_{n}^{2}\geq \left({\frac {1}{2}}\right)^{2} \sum _{{n=1}}^{\infty }\left({\frac {a_{1}+a_{2}+\cdots +a_{n}}{n}}\right)^{2},…

Let $\lambda =\left( \lambda_{1},\lambda_{2},...,\lambda_{r}\right) $ be an integer partition, and $\left[p_{\lambda }\right] $ the $q$-analog of the symmetric power function $%p_{\lambda }$. This $q$-analogue has been defined as a special…

For a positive integer $n$ and a real number $\xi$, let $\lambda_n (\xi)$ denote the supremum of the real numbers $\lambda$ for which there are arbitrarily large positive integers $q$ such that $|| q \xi ||, || q \xi^2 ||, \ldots , ||q…

Let $C$ be an irreducible smooth projective curve defined over an algebraically closed field. We prove that the symmetric product ${\rm Sym}^d(C)$ has the diagonal property for all $d \geq 1$. For any positive integers $n$ and $r$, let…

The most simple and famous divergent power series coming from ODE may be the so-called Euler series $\sum_{n\ge 0}(-1)^n\,n!\,x^{n+1}$, that, as well as all its positive powers, is Borel-summable in any direction excepted the negative real…

We establish the test which allows to show that a mean does not admit a weak-Hardy property. As a result we prove that Hardy and weak-Hardy properties are equivalent in the class of homogeneous, symmetric, repetition invariant, and Jensen…

We study the weighted elliptic equation \begin{equation} -div(|x|^{-2a}\nabla u)=|x|^{-bp}|u|^{p-2}u~~~\mbox{in}~\mathbb{R}^N ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(0.1)\end{equation} with $N\geq 2$, which arises from the Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg…

For fixed $s\geq 1$ and $t_{1},t_{2}\in(0,1/2)$ we prove that the inequalities $G^{s}(t_{1}a+(1-t_{1})b,t_{1}b+(1-t_{1})a)A^{1-s}(a,b)>AG(a,b)$ and $G^{s}(t_{2}a+(1-t_{2})b,t_{2}b+(1-t_{2})a)A^{1-s}(a,b)>L(a,b)$ hold for all $a,b>0$ with…

The reciprocal of $e^{-x}$ has a power series about $0$ in which all coefficients are non-negative. Gessel [Reciprocals of exponential polynomials and permutation enumeration, Australas. J. Combin., 74, 2019] considered truncates of the…

Let Omega(n) be the volume of the unit ball in R^n. We formulate as an infinite product the gamma function ratio gamma(x+1/2)/gamma(x),x>0, which allows us to reproduce and /or produce a variety of formulas and inequalities, some of them…

Let $\mathbf{x}=(x_1,\dots,x_n)$ be an $n$-tuple of positive real numbers and the sequence $(x_i)_{i\in\mathbb{Z}}$ be its $n$-periodic extension. Given an $n$-tuple $\mathbf{r}=(r_1,\dots,r_n)$ of positive integers, let $a_i$ be the…

This note investigates the prime values of the polynomial $f(t)=qt^2+a$ for any fixed pair of relatively prime integers $ a\geq 1$ and $ q\geq 1$ of opposite parity. For a large number $x\geq1$, an asymptotic result of the form $\sum_{n\leq…

Let $a_k(n)$ denotes the number of representations of a non-negative integer $n$ as sum of $k$ quadratic forms of the type $x^2+xy+y^2$ and $a_{\lambda_1,\lambda_2,\lambda_3\dots\lambda_k}(n)$ denotes the number of representations $n$ as a…

Let $A(q)=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}a_n q^n$ and $B(q)=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}b_n q^n$ be two eta quotients. Previously, we considered the problem of when \[ a_n=0 <=> b_n=0. \] Here we consider the ``mod $m$'' version of this problem, i.e. eta…

Motivated by the recent work of Hirschhorn on vanishing coefficients of the arithmetic progressions in certain $q$-series expansions, we study some variants of these $q$-series and prove some comparable results. For instance, let…

This note proves the following inequality: if $n=3k$ for some positive integer $k$, then for any $n$ positive definite matrices $A_1,A_2,\cdots,A_n$, \begin{equation} \frac{1}{n^3}\Big\|\sum_{j_1,j_2,j_3=1}^{n}A_{j_1}A_{j_2}A_{j_3}\Big\|…

In this note we present a refinement of the AM-GM inequality, and then we estimate in a special case the typical size of the improvement.
