We consider the representation of primes as a sum of a prime and twice a triangular number. We prove that a subset of the primes having density 1 is expressible in this form. We conjecture that every odd prime number is expressible as a sum…

Let \lambda be a partition of a positive integer n. Let C be a symmetric rigid tensor category over a field k of characteristic 0 or char(k)>n, and let V be an object of C. In our main result (Theorem 4.3) we introduce a finite set of…

In this paper, we first give an expression for the Moore-Penrose inverse of the product of two tensors via the Einstein product. We then introduce a new generalized inverse of a tensor called product Moore-Penrose inverse. A necessary and…

We present a counter-example to the recent claim that supermultiplets of N-extended supersymmetry with no central charge and in 1-dimension are specified unambiguously by providing the numbers of component fields in all available…

We prove that for any $\lambda > 1$, fixed in advance, the permanent of an $n \times n$ complex matrix, where the absolute value of each diagonal entry is at least $\lambda$ times bigger than the sum of the absolute values of all other…

We propose a generic algorithm for computing the inverses of a multiplicative function under the assumption that the set of inverses is finite. More generally, our algorithm can compute certain functions of the inverses, such as their power…

The study of sums of finite sets of integers has mostly concentrated on sets with very small sumsets (Freiman's theorem and related work) and on sets with very large sumsets (Sidon sets and $B_h$-sets). This paper considers the full range…

Conjugate partial-symmetric (CPS) tensors are the high-order generalization of Hermitian matrices. As the role played by Hermitian matrices in matrix theory and quadratic optimization, CPS tensors have shown growing interest recently in…

We discuss the existence of an orthogonal basis consisting of decomposable vectors for some symmetry classes of tensors associated with Semi-Dihedral groups $SD_{8n}$. The dimensions of these symmetry classes of tensors are also computed.

Some class of sums which naturally include the sums of powers of integers is considered. A number of conjectures concerning a representation of these sums is made.

We call an operator algebra A {\em reversible} if A with reversed multiplication is also an abstract operator algebra (in the modern operator space sense). This class of operator algebras is intimately related to the {\em symmetric operator…

We give a new, constructive uniqueness theorem for tensor decomposition. It applies to order 3 tensors of format $n \times n \times p$ and can prove uniqueness of decomposition for generic tensors up to rank $r=4n/3$ as soon as $p \geq 4$.…

Let k>2 be a fixed integer exponent and let \theta > 9/10. We show that a positive integer N can be represented as a non-trivial sum or difference of 3 k-th powers, using integers of size at most B, in O(B^{\theta}N^{1/10}) ways, providing…

We prove that an elasticity tensor with orthotropic symmetry is extremal if the determinant of its acoustic tensor is an extremal polynomial that is not a perfect square.

We give an alternate computer-free proof of a result of Z. Arad, M. Muzychuk, and A. Oliver: if G is a minimal counterexample to the Sym(3) conjecture, then Soc(G)' cannot be isomorphic to Alt(8).

Persistent tensors, introduced in [Quantum 8 (2024), 1238], and inspired by quantum information theory, form a recursively defined class of tensors that remain stable under the substitution method and thereby yield nontrivial lower bounds…

The primary contribution of this paper is to give a formal, categorical treatment to Penrose's abstract tensor notation, in the context of traced symmetric monoidal categories. To do so, we introduce a typed, sum-free version of an abstract…

An old conjecture of Durfee 1978 bounds the ratio of two basic invariants of complex isolated complete intersection surface singularities: the Milnor number and the singularity (or geometric) genus. We give a counterexample for the case of…

We prove that if the associated fourth order tensor of a quadratic form has a linear elastic cubic symmetry then it is quasiconvex if and only if it is polyconvex, i.e. a sum of convex and null-Lagrangian quadratic forms. We prove that…

An analogue of Taylor's formula, which arises by substituting the classical derivative by a divided difference operator of Askey-Wilson type, is developed here. We study the convergence of the associated Taylor series. Our results…
