It is established that for any finite set of positive real numbers $A$, we have $$|A/A+A| \gg \frac{|A|^{\frac{3}{2}+\frac{1}{26}}}{\log^{1/2}|A|}.$$

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a finite subset of $\mathbb{N}$ including $0$ and $f_\mathcal{A}(n)$ be the number of ways to write $n=\sum_{i=0}^{\infty}\epsilon_i2^i$, where $\epsilon_i\in\mathcal{A}$. We consider asymptotics of the summatory…

Let $\A=\{a_1<a_2<a_3.....<a_n<...\}$ be an infinite sequence of integers and let $R_2(n)=|\{(i,j):\ \ a_i+a_j=n;\ \ a_i,a_j\in \A;\ \ i\le j\}|$. We define $S_k=\s_{l=1}^k(R_2(2l)-R_2(2l+1))$. We prove that, if $L^{\infty}$ norm of…

The homogeneous form $\Phi_n(X,Y)$ of degree $\varphi(n)$ which is associated with the cyclotomic polynomial $\phi_n(X)$ is dubbed a {\it cyclotomic binary form}. A positive integer $m\ge 1$ is said to be {\it representable by a cyclotomic…

We show that for every fixed $A>0$ and $\theta>0$ there is a $\vartheta=\vartheta(A,\theta)>0$ with the following property. Let $n$ be odd and sufficiently large, and let $Q_{1}=Q_{2}:=n^{\h}(\log n)^{-\vartheta}$ and $Q_{3}:=(\log…

Assume that $rB_{2}^{n} \subset P$ for some polytope $P \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, where $r \in (\frac{1}{2},1]$. Denote by $\mathcal{F}$ the set of facets of $P$, and by $N=N(P,B_2^n)$ the covering number of $P$ by the Euclidean unit ball…

Let $\mathcal{A}=\{a_{n}\}_{n=1}^{\infty}$ and $\mathcal{B}=\{b_{n}\}_{n=1}^{\infty}$ be two sequences of positive integers (not necessarily distinct). Under some restrictions on $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$, we obtain a lower bound for…

We determine the asymptotic density $\delta_k$ of the set of ordered $k$-tuples $(n_1,...,n_k)\in \N^k, k\ge 2$, such that there exists no prime power $p^a$, $a\ge 1$, appearing in the canonical factorization of each $n_i$, $1\le i\le k$,…

By using the complete discrimination system for polynomials, we study the number of positive solutions in {\small $C[0,1]$} to the integral equation {\small $\phi (x)=\int_0^1k(x,y)\phi ^n(y)dy$}, where {\small…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group with exponent $n$, and let $r$ be a positive integer. Let $A$ be a $k\times m$ matrix with integer entries. We show that if $A$ satisfies some natural conditions and $|G|$ is large enough then, for each…

We show that the equation $\lambda_1 n_1^2 + ... + \lambda_s n_s^2 = 0$ admits non-trivial solutions in any subset of $[N]$ of density $(\log N)^{-c_s}$, provided that $s \geq 7$ and the coefficients $\lambda_i$ sum to zero and satisfy…

Given positive integers $h, N$ satisfying $1 \leqslant h \leqslant 2N^2$, we define $T(h,N)$ to be the number of $2\times 2$ integer matrices with determinant equal to $h$ whose entries lie in $[-N,N]$. Our main result states that for any…

Let $\epsilon$ be a fixed positive quantity, $m$ be a large integer, $x_j$ denote integer variables. We prove that for any positive integers $N_1,N_2,N_3$ with $N_1N_2N_3>m^{1+\epsilon},$ the set $$ \{x_1x_2x_3 \pmod m: \quad x_j\in [1,N_j]…

In this note, we show that there are many infinity positive integer values of $n$ in which, the following inequality holds $$ \left\lfloor{1/2}(\frac{(n+1)^2}{\log(n+1)}-\frac{n^2}{\log n})-\frac{\log^2 n}{\log\log…

Let P denote the set of all primes. Suppose that P_1, P_2, P_3 are three subsets of P with the sum of their lower densities relative to P is greater than 2. We prove that for sufficiently large odd integer n, there exist p_i\in P_i such…

Define $\|n\|$ to be the complexity of $n$, the smallest number of ones needed to write $n$ using an arbitrary combination of addition and multiplication. John Selfridge showed that $\|n\|\ge 3\log_3 n$ for all $n$. Based on this, this…

Let $k$ and $n$ be positive integers, $n>k$. Define $r(n,k)$ to be the minimum positive value of $$ |\sqrt{a_1} + ... + \sqrt{a_k} - \sqrt{b_1} - >... -\sqrt{b_k} | $$ where $ a_1, a_2, ..., a_k, b_1, b_2, ..., b_k $ are positive integers…
