Identity theorem for analytic complex functions says that a function is uniquely defined by its values on a set that contains a density point. The paper presents sufficient conditions for classes of real analytic functions that ensures…
This is the second of two coupled papers estimating the mean values of multiplicative functions, of unknown support, on arithmetic progressions with large differences. Applications are made to the study of primes in arithmetic progression…

In this note we prove a conjecture by Li, Qu, Li, and Fu on permutation trinomials over $\mathbb{F}_3^{2k}$. In addition, new examples and generalizations of some families of permutation polynomials of $\mathbb{F}_{3^k}$ and…
In this article, I introduce a group-theoretical method to prove positivity of certain linear combinations (with coefficients generally lying in $\mathbb{C}$) of exponential functions under a set of semidefinite linear constraints. The…

A triangular field of rational numbers is characterized, with relations to Stirling numbers 2nd, Hyperbolic functions, and centered Binomial distribution. A Generating function is given.
In this paper, we introduce the notion of $q$-quasiadditivity of arithmetic functions, as well as the related concept of $q$-quasimultiplicativity, which generalise strong $q$-additivity and -multiplicativity, respectively. We show that…
The suitable basis functions for approximating periodic function are periodic, trigonometric functions. When the function is not periodic, a viable alternative is to consider polynomials as basis functions. In this paper we will point out…
Motivated by a problem on comonotone approximation of $C^n$ functions by entire functions, for increasing functions $f\colon[0,1]\to[0,1]$, we characterize the possible values of $(a,b,c)$, where $a=I(f)(1)$, $b=I^2(f)(1)$, $c=I^3(f)(1)$…
Two sets $A,B$ of positive integers are called \emph{exact additive complements}, if $A+B$ contains all sufficiently large integers and $A(x)B(x)/x\rightarrow1$. Let $A=\{a_1<a_2<\cdots\}$ be a set of positive integers. Denote $A(x)$ by the…
In this paper, we will extend the falling and rising factorial transforms \cite{ref. 1} which in this case every arbitrary function can be applied. Then, the properties of these transforms will be investigated and some corollaries will be…
We provide examples of multiplicative functions $f$ supported on the squarefree integers, such that on primes $f(p)=\pm1$ and such that $M_f(x):=\sum_{n\leq x} f(n)=o(\sqrt{x})$. Further, by assuming the Riemann hypothesis (RH) we can go…
In this paper, we solve the following tri-additive $s$-functional inequalities \begin{eqnarray}\label{0.1} && \nonumber \| f(x+y, z-w, a+b) + f(x-y, z+w, a-b) \\ && \nonumber\qquad -2 f(x, z, a) + 2 f(x, w, b) -2f(y, z, b) +2 f(y, w, a)\|…
Let $k\ge 1,a\ge 1,b\ge 0$ and $ c\ge 1$ be integers. Let $f$ be a multiplicative function with $f(n)\ne 0$ for all positive integers $n$. We define the arithmetic function $g_{k,f}$ for any positive integer $n$ by…
An identity stated by Kimura and proved by Ruehr, Kimura and others stipulates that for any function $f$ continuous on $[-\frac{1}{2}, \frac{3}{2}]$ one has $$ \int_{-1/2}^{3/2} f(3x^2 - 2x^3) dx = 2 \int_0^1 f(3x^2 - 2x^3) dx. $$ We prove…
