Some results are proved concerning asymptotic and deficient values in connection with the second order linear differential equation $y'' + Ay = 0$, in which the coefficient $A$ is entire.

We investigate fractional sums of arithmetic functions over products of two or three integers, with emphasis on fixed greatest common divisors and multiplicative weights. Let $f$ be an arithmetic function satisfying $f(n) \ll n^\alpha$ for…

Let $0 < \beta \leq \alpha < 1$ and $\kappa > 0$. I prove that there exists $\eta > 0$ such that the following holds for every pair of Borel sets $A,B \subset \mathbb{R}$ with $\dim_{\mathrm{H}} A = \alpha$ and $\dim_{\mathrm{H}} B =…

We show two asymmetric estimates, one on the number of collinear triples and the other on that of solutions to $(a_1+a_2)(a_1^{\prime\prime\prime}+a_2^{\prime\prime\prime})=(a_1^\prime+a_2^\prime)(a_1^{\prime\prime}+a_2^{\prime\prime})$. As…

A sum-dominant set is a finite set $A$ of integers such that $|A+A| > |A-A|$. As a typical pair of elements contributes one sum and two differences, we expect sum-dominant sets to be rare in some sense. In 2006, however, Martin and O'Bryant…

We characterize the situations in which certain accumulation properties of topological spaces are preserved under taking products.

We study algorithmic randomness and monotone complexity on product of the set of infinite binary sequences. We explore the following problems: monotone complexity on product space, Lambalgen's theorem for correlated probability,…

This paper aims to continue the studies initiated by Botha in [Linear Algebra Appl. 273 (1998), 65-82; Linear Algebra Appl. 286 (1999), 37-44; Linear Algebra Appl. 315 (2000), 1-23] by extending them to matrices over noncommutative division…

In this article we propose a general method of obtaining infinite sums of products with functions that count patterns in numbers.

We improve a previous unconditional result about the asymptotic behavior of $\sum_{n\le x} r(n)r(n+m)$ with $r(n)$ the number of representations of $n$ as a sum of two squares when $m$ may vary with $x$.

Asymptotic expansions of series $\sum_{k=0}^\infty \epsilon^k(k+a)^\gamma e^{-(k+a)^\alpha x}$ and $\sum_{k=0}^\infty \epsilon^k(k+a)^\gamma / (x(k+a)^\alpha+1)^\mu}$ in powers of $x$ as $x\to+0$ are found, where $\epsilon=1$ or…

We present an extension of the Prouhet-Tarry-Escott problem by demonstrating that signed sums of noninteger powers of consecutive integers can be made arbitrarily close to zero.

We study the properties of the product, which runs over the primes, $$\mathfrak{p}_n = \prod_{s_p(n) \, \geq \, p} p \quad (n \geq 1),$$ where $s_p(n)$ denotes the sum of the base-$p$ digits of $n$. One important property is the fact that…

In this paper we introduce a technique to determine the sumset $A+A$, where $A$ is the indicator function of the 0's occurring in a fixed point $x$ of a substitution on the alphabet $\{0,1\}$.

A finite set of integers $A$ is a sum-dominant (also called an More Sums Than Differences or MSTD) set if $|A+A| > |A-A|$. While almost all subsets of $\{0, \dots, n\}$ are not sum-dominant, interestingly a small positive percentage are. We…

The main objective of this article is to study the asymptotic behavior of Salie sums over arithmetic progressions. We deduce from our asymptotic formula that Salie sums possess a bias of being positive. The method we use is based on…

Let $(u_n)_{n\ge 0}$ denote the Thue-Morse sequence with values $\pm 1$. The Woods-Robbins identity below and several of its generalisations are well-known in the literature…

We study some counting questions concerning products of positive integers $u_1, \ldots, u_n$ which form a non-zero perfect square, or more generally, a perfect $k$-th power. We obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of such integers of…

The authors review results implicit in their recent paper [2] on the product/quotient representation of rationals by rationals of the type $( an + b )/ ( An+ B )$ and give a detailed account of a particular related non-intuitive…

Given $n$ positive integers $a_1,a_2,\dots,a_n$, and a positive integer right hand side $\beta$, we consider the feasibility version of the subset sum problem which is the problem of determining whether a subset of $a_1,a_2,\dots,a_n$ adds…
