This paper begins with a class of convex quadratic programs (QPs) with bounded variables solvable by the parametric principal pivoting algorithm with $\mathcal{O}(n^3)$ strongly polynomial complexity, where $n$ is the number of variables of…

We show that the sequence of ratios $d(n+1) / d(n)$ of consecutive values of the divisor function attains every positive rational infinitely many times. This confirms a prediction of Erd\H{o}s.

Recently, we have established the generalized Li's criterion equivalent to the Riemann hypothesis, viz. demonstrated that the sums over all non-trivial Riemann function zeroes k_n,a=Sum_rho(1-(1-((rho-a)/(rho+a-1))^n) for any real a not…

In 1956, 48 years after Hausdorff provided a comprehensive account on ordered sets and defined the notion of a scattered order, Erd\H{o}s and Rado founded the partition calculus in a seminal paper. The present paper gives an account of…

A (positive definite and non-classic integral) quadratic form is called strongly $s$-regular if it satisfies a strong regularity property on the number of representations of squares of integers. In this article, we prove that for any…

By using nonstandard analysis, and in particular iterated hyper-extensions, we give foundations to a peculiar way of manipulating ultrafilters on the natural numbers and their pseudo-sums. The resulting formalism is suitable for…

In this short note, a general result concerning the positivity, under some conditions, of the coefficients of a power series is proved. This allows us to answer positively a question raised by Guo (2010) about the sign of the coefficients…

This note is an introduction to the properties of stable polynomials in several variables with real or complex coefficients. These polynomials are defined in terms of where the polynomial is non-vanishing. We do not cover well-known topics…

We prove that Allard's regularity theorem holds for rectifiable $n$-dimensional varifolds $V$ assuming a weaker condition on the first variation. This, in the special case when $V$ is a smooth manifold translates to the following: If…

Let P be a polygon whose vertices have been colored (labeled) cyclically with the numbers 1,2,...,c. Motivated by conjectures of Propp, we are led to consider partitions of P into k-gons which are proper in the sense that each k-gon…

We solve here the so called division problem for wave equations with generic quadratic non-linearities in high dimensions. Specifically, we show that semilinear wave equations which can be written as systems involving quadratic derivative…

For Latin squares the units (rows and columns) have fixed sum. The same holds for rows, columns, and blocks in Sudokus. Summing the elements of a unit yields a linear equation, and the set of all such equations forms a system of linear…

We reconsider the classical problem of representing a finite number of forms of degree d in n+1 variables as sums of powers of linear forms. We define a geometric construct called a `grove', which, in a number of cases allows us to…

A classical result by Rado characterises the so-called partition-regular matrices $A$, i.e.\ those matrices $A$ for which any finite colouring of the positive integers yields a monochromatic solution to the equation $Ax=0$. We study the…

We show that for fixed $d>3$ and $n$ growing to infinity there are at least $(n!)^{d-2 \pm o(1)}$ different labeled combinatorial types of $d$-polytopes with $n$ vertices. This is about the square of the previous best lower bounds. As an…
