The Carmichael lambda function $\lambda(n)$ is defined to be the smallest positive integer $m$ such that $a^m$ is congruent to 1 modulo $n,$ for all $a$ and $n$ relatively prime. The function $\lambda_k(n)$ is defined to be the $k$th…

We consider random linear continuous operators $\Omega \to \mathcal{L}(\mathcal{H}, \mathcal{H})$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. For example, such random operators may be random quantum channels. The Central Limit Theorem is known for…

Consider $n$ linearly independent vectors in $\mathbb{C}^n$ which form columns of a matrix $A$. The recursive evaluation of eigen directions (normalized eigenvectors) of $A$ is the solution of an eigenvalue problem of the form…

The odd-Ramsey number $r_{{\text odd}}(n,H)$ of a graph $H$, as introduced by Alon in his work on graph-codes, is the minimum number of colours needed to edge-colour $K_n$ so that every copy of $H$ intersects some colour class in an odd…

Given an infinite set \Lambda of characters on a compact abelian group we show that \Lambda is a \Lambda(p)-set for all p>2 if and only if the limit order of the ideal of all \Lambda-summing operators coincides with that of the ideal of all…

General analytic energy bounds are derived for N-boson systems governed by ultrarelativistic Hamiltonians of the form H = sum_{i=1}^N||p_i|| + sum_{1=i<j}^N V(r_{ij}), where V(r) is a static attractive pair potential. It is proved that a…

A set $A$ of nonnegative integers is called a $B_h$-set if every solution to $a_1+\dots+a_h = b_1+\dots+b_h$, where $a_i,b_i \in A$, has $\{a_1,\dots,a_h\}=\{b_1,\dots,b_h\}$ (as multisets). Let $\gamma_k(h)$ be the $k$-th positive element…

For a finite set $A\subset \mathbb{R}^d$, let $\Delta(A)$ denote the spread of $A$, which is the ratio of the maximum pairwise distance to the minimum pairwise distance. For a positive integer $n$, let $\gamma_d(n)$ denote the largest…
