We obtain congruences for the number a(n) of cubic partitions using modular forms. The notion of cubic partitions is introduced by Chan and named by Kim in connection with Ramanujan's cubic continued fractions. Chan has shown that a(n) has…
The main aim of this article is to find all solutions of the Diophantine equation $x^2 + p^k=y^n$ where $p \equiv 1 \pmod 4$, $\frac{p-1}{3}$ is a perfect square and the class number of $\mathbb{Z}[\sqrt{-p}]$ is $2$. In this article, I…
We obtain an essentially optimal estimate for the moment of order 32/3 of the exponential sum having argument $\alpha x^3+\beta x^2$. Subject to modest local solubility hypotheses, we thereby establish that pairs of diagonal Diophantine…
We study the properties of the odd Catalan numbers, C_n, modulo 2^k for k >= 2. We show that there exist only k - 1 different congruences of the odd Catalan numbers modulo 2^k. Moreover, these congruences can be obtained by C_{2^m - 1} (mod…
We study the presence of exact localized solutions in a quadratic-cubic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with inhomogeneous nonlinearities. Using a specific ansatz, we transform the nonautonomous nonlinear equation into an autonomous one,…
Let $p$ be a prime number, $p=2^nq+1$, where $q$ is odd. D. Shanks described an algorithm to compute square roots $\pmod{p}$ which needs $O(\log q + n^2)$ modular multiplications. In this note we describe two modifications of this…
We derive an upper bound for the least number of variables needed to guarantee that a system of t quadratic forms (t>=2) over a field F has a nontrivial zero. In particular, if F is a local field, then 2t^2+3 variables insure the existence…
In this paper we consider certain quaternary quadratic forms and octonary quadratic forms and by using the theory of modular forms, we find formulae for the number of representations of a positive integer by these quadratic forms.
We consider quadratic optimization in variables $(x,y)$ where $0\le x\le y$, and $y\in\{0,1\}^n$. Such binary $y$ are commonly refered to as "indicator" or "switching" variables and occur commonly in applications. One approach to such…
A cyclic codes of length $n$ over the rings $Z_{2^{m}}$ of integer of modulo $2^{m}$ is a linear code with property that if the codeword $(c_0,c_1,...,c_{n-1})\in \mathcal{C}$ then the cyclic shift $(c_1,c_2,...,c_0)\in \mathcal{C}$.…
Recently, Andrews, Hirschhorn and Sellers have proven congruences modulo 3 for four types of partitions using elementary series manipulations. In this paper, we generalize their congruences using arithmetic properties of certain quadratic…
For polynomials of degree two which have no zeros, the method of accompanying variables is developed and zeros of associated vector polynomials are determined. Our flexible method uses a wide variety of possible vector-valued vector…
We establish a lower bound for the frequency with which an irreducible monic cubic polynomial with negative discriminant can be expressed as a sum of two squares ($\square_{2}$). This provides a quantitative answer to a question posed by…
In this work, the Lambert-Tsallis Wq function is used to provide analytical solutions of fractional polynomials of the type ax^r+bx^s+c = 0. This class of fractional polynomial appears in several areas of physics as well it is in the heart…
Some geometry on non-singular cubic curves, mainly over finite fields, is surveyed. Such a curve has 9,3,1 or 0 points of inflexion, and cubic curves are classified accordingly. The group structure and the possible numbers of rational…
Let $\mathcal{N}[k]$ be the multiset containing the $\binom{n-1}{k}$ products of $k$-subsets of $\{1,\ldots, n-1\}$. We show that if $n\geq (2c+3)^2$, then \begin{gather*}\left((-1)^c+\sum_{M\in \mathcal{N}[n-1-c]}M\right)\cdot(c+1)\equiv…
We prove part of a conjecture of Borwein and Choi concerning an estimate on the square of the number of solutions to n=x^2+Ny^2 for a squarefree integer N.
In this paper we give a novel solution to a classical completion problem for square matrices. This problem was studied by many authors through time, and it is completely solved in [2, 3]. In this paper we relate this classical problem to a…
This paper investigates the exponential Diophantine equation of the form $a^x+b=c^y$, where $a, b, c$ are given positive integers with $a,c \ge 2$, and $x,y$ are positive integer unknowns. We define this form as a "Type-I transcendental…
In this paper we study some products related to quadratic residues and quartic residues modulo primes. Let $p$ be an odd prime and let $A$ be any integer. We mainly determine completely the product $$f_p(A):=\prod_{1\le i,j\le(p-1)/2\atop…
