In light of Kim's conjecture on regular polytopes of dimension four, which is a generalization of Waring's problem, we establish asymptotic formulas for representing any sufficiently large integer as a sum of numbers in the form of those…
We study the divisibility of the sums of the odd power of consecutive integers, $S(m,k)=1^{mk}+2^{mk}+\cdots+k^{mk}$ and $1^k+2^k+\cdots+n^k$ for odd integers $m$ and $k$, by using the Girard-Waring identity. Faulhaber's approach for the…

We consider the equal sum partition problem, motivated by distance magic graph labeling: Given $n,k \in \N$ such that $k\, | \sum_{i=1}^ni$ and a partition $p_1+\cdots+p_k=n$, when is it possible to find a partition of the set…
Many physical systems share the property of scale invariance. Most of them show ordinary power-law scaling, where quantities can be expressed as a leading power law times a scaling function which depends on scaling-invariant ratios of the…
Denote by P(K, k) the members of the field K which are sums of kth powers of field elements, by P+(K, k) the set of members of K which are sums of kth powers of totally positive elements of K. We are interested in deciding whether or not…
Distorted sums of models were introduced and discussed in [Sh:463]. This notion generalizes the notion of disjoint (or direct) sums of models by letting the summands overlap. In the first section we investigate types in distorted sums and…
Asymptotic formulae for Titchmarsh-type divisor sums are obtained with strong error terms that are uniform in the shift parameter. This applies to more general arithmetic functions such as sums of two squares, improving the error term in…
We improve the bound of the $g$-invariant of the ring of integers of a totally real number field, where the $g$-invariant $g(r)$ is the smallest number of squares of linear forms in $r$ variables that is required to represent all the…
We generalize the Arrow's impossibility theorem--a key result in social choice theory--to the setting where the arity $k$ of the relation under consideration is greater than $2$. Some special but natural properties of $k$-ary relations are…
Symmetry can be used to help solve many problems. For instance, Einstein's famous 1905 paper ("On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies") uses symmetry to help derive the laws of special relativity. In artificial intelligence, symmetry has…
We help Alice play a certain "convergence game" against Bob and win the prize, which is a constructive solution to a problem by Erd\H{o}s and Graham, posed in their 1980 book on open questions in combinatorial number theory. Namely, after…
We examine exponential sums of the form $\sum_{n \le X} w(n) e^{2\pi i\alpha n^k}$, for $k=1,2$, where $\alpha$ satisfies a generalized Diophantine approximation and where $w$ are different arithmetic functions that might be multiplicative,…
In difference algebra, summability arises as a basic problem upon which rests the effective solution of other more elaborate problems, such as creative telescoping problems and the computation of Galois groups of difference equations. In…
In the area of symbolic-numerical computation within computer algebra, an interesting question is how "close" a random input is to the "critical" ones, like the singular matrices in linear algebra or the polynomials with multiple roots for…
We analyze the constraints of general coordinate invariance for quantum theories possessing conformal symmetry in four dimensions. The character of these constraints simplifies enormously on the Einstein universe $R \times S^3$. The…
Here we examine the number of ways to partition an integer $n$ into $k$th powers when $n$ is large. Simplified proofs of some asymptotic results of Wright are given using the saddle-point method, including exact formulas for the expansion…
Fej\'er's theorem guarantees norm convergence of Ces\`aro means of Taylor partial sums in the Hardy space, whereas such convergence generally fails in weighted Dirichlet-type spaces, especially in the higher-order setting. In this paper, we…
A technique devised some years ago permits to study a theory in a regime of strong perturbations. This translates into a gradient expansion that, at the leading order, can recover the BKL solution in general relativity. We solve exactly the…
We consider the theory of algebraically closed fields of characteristic zero with multivalued operations $x\mapsto x^r$ (raising to powers). It is in fact the theory of equations in exponential sums. In an earlier paper we have described…
