Let $Q$ be a finite set of points in the plane. For any set $P$ of points in the plane, $S_{Q}(P)$ denotes the number of similar copies of $Q$ contained in $P$. For a fixed $n$, Erd\H{o}s and Purdy asked to determine the maximum possible…

Paul Erd\H{o}s and R. Daniel Mauldin asked a series of questions on certain types of polygons of area $1$, the vertices of which can be found in every planar set of infinite Lebesgue measure. We address two of these questions, one on cyclic…

In this paper, we find all the solutions of the Diophantine equation $P_\ell + P_m +P_n=2^a$, in nonnegative integer variables $(n,m,\ell, a)$ where $P_k$ is the $k$-th term of the Pell sequence $\{P_n\}_{n\ge 0}$ given by $P_0=0$, $P_1=1$…

While the twin prime conjecture is still famously open, it holds true in the setting of finite fields: There are infinitely many pairs of monic irreducible polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q$ that differ by a fixed constant, for each $q \geq…

We present a formal version of the numbers of vertices, edges, and faces for infinite planar regular triangular meshes of degree r>6. These numbers are defined via Euler summation of sequences obtained from iterated expansions of a convex…

In the present paper we shall investigate the Waring's problem for upper triangular matrix algebras. The main result is the following: Let $n\geq 2$ and $m\geq 1$ be integers. Let $p(x_1,\ldots,x_m)$ be a noncommutative polynomial with zero…

The Polignac's Conjecture, first formulated by Alphonse de Polignac in 1849, asserts that, for any even number M, there exist infinitely many couples of prime numbers P, P+M. When M = 2, this reduces to the Twin Primes Conjecture. Despite…

We give Euler-like recursive formulas for the $t$-colored partition function when $t=2$ or $t=3,$ as well as for all $t$-regular partition functions. In particular, we derive an infinite family of ``triangular number" recurrences for the…

A triangular form is defined to be an integer-valued quadratic polynomial of the form $a_1P_3(x_1)+a_2P_3(x_2)+\cdots+a_kP_3(x_k)$ where $a_i's$ are positive integers and $P_3(x)=x(x+1)/2$. A triangular form is called regular if it…

A number of the form $x(x+1)/2$ where $x$ is an integer is called a triangular number. Suppose, $N(a_1,\cdots,a_k;n)$ and $T(a_1,\cdots,a_k;n)$ denote the number of ways $n$ can be expressed as $\sum_{i=1}^k a_ix_i^2$ and $\sum_{i=1}^k…
