Let $n \ge 2$ be an integer and $\alpha_1, \ldots, \alpha_n$ be non-zero algebraic numbers. Let $b_1, \ldots , b_n$ be integers with $b_n \not= 0$, and set $B = \max\{3, |b_1|, \ldots , |b_n|\}$. For $j =1, \ldots, n$, set $h^* (\alpha_j) =…

This note shows that the three theorems presented in J. Math. Anal. Appl. 556 (2026), 130199, whose proofs, in their present formulation, are purely formal, follow from elementary calculus.

This note is devoted to the construction of a graded Lie algebra, whose grading is not given by a semigroup.

In this article, using generalized derivations, we obtain a simple idea to prove the non-commutative Newton binomial formula in unital algebras and then, we extend that formula to non-unital algebras. Additionally, we establish the…

In this paper we give simple proofs for the bounds (some of them sharp) of the difference of the moduli of the second and the first logarithmic coefficient for the general class of univalent functions and for the class of convex univalent…

In this note we prove results of the following types. Let be given distinct complex numbers $z_j$ satisfying the conditions $|z_j| = 1, z_j \not= 1$ for $j=1,..., n$ and for every $z_j$ there exists an $ i$ such that $z_i = \bar{z_j}. $…

This note describes a way of obtaining e that differs from the standard one. It could be used as an alternate way of showing how the value of e is obtained. No attempt is made to show the existence of the limit in the definition of e that…

We give a simplified proof and an improvement of a recent theorem by A. Grigoriev, placing an upper bound for the number of roots of linear combinations of solutions to systems of linear equations with polynomial or rational coefficients.

This set of notes re-proves known results on weighted automata (over a field, also known as multiplicity automata). The text offers a unified view on theorems and proofs that have appeared in the literature over decades and were written in…

Let $q_1, \ldots , q_t$ be distinct prime numbers. Let $a_1, \ldots , a_t$ be nonnegative integers. We establish effective lower bounds for $|z^d - q_1^{a_1} \ldots q_t^{a_t}|$ and for its greatest prime factor, which tend to infinity with…

A new proof for adjoint systems of linear equations is presented. The argument is built on the principles of Algorithmic Differentiation. Application to scalar multiplication sets the base line. Generalization yields adjoint inner vector,…

Proofs of the fundamental theorem of algebra can be divided up into three groups according to the techniques involved: proofs that rely on real or complex analysis, algebraic proofs, and topological proofs. Algebraic proofs make use of the…

A linear polyomial non-negative on the non-negativity domain of finitely many linear polynomials can be expressed as their non-negative linear combination. Recently, under several additional assumptions, Helton, Klep, and McCullough…

We study partitions of complex numbers as sums of non-negative powers of a fixed algebraic number $\beta$. We prove that if $\beta$ is real quadratic, then the number of partitions is always finite if and only if some conjugate of $\beta$…

Simplification of fractional powers of positive rational numbers and of sums, products and powers of such numbers is taught in beginning algebra. Such numbers can often be expressed in many ways, as this article discusses in some detail.…

In this note, we derive non trivial sharp bounds related to the weighted harmonic-geometric-arithmetic means inequalities, when two out of the three terms are known. As application, we give an explicit bound for the trace of the inverse of…

We prove an asymptotic formula for a variant of the binary additive divisor problem with linear factors in the arguments, which has a power saving error term and which is uniform in all involved parameters.
