We settle an open problem regarding palindromes; that is, positive integers which are the same when written forwards and backwards. In particular, we prove that for any fixed base $b\geq 2$, there exist infinitely many square-free…
A collection of finite sets $\{A_1, A_2,\ldots, A_{p}\}$ is said to be a double-covering if each $a\in \cup_{k=1}^{p}A_k$ is included in exactly two sets of the collection. For fixed integers $l$ and $p$, let $\mu_{l,p}$ be the number of…
We study the structure of the asymptotic expansion of the probability that a combinatorial object is connected. We show that the coefficients appearing in those asymptotics are integers and can be interpreted as the counting sequences of…
We demonstrate, using the symbolic method together with p-adic and resultant methods,the existence of systems with exactly one or two generalized symmetries. Since the existence of one or two symmetries is often taken as a sure sign (or as…
Let $R(N)$ be the number of representations of $N$ as a sum of a prime and a square-full number weighted with logarithmic function. In $2024$, the author and Y. Suzuki obtained an asymptotic formula for the sum of $R(N)$ over positive…
In this paper, we consider representations of integers as sums of generalized heptagonal numbers with a prescribed number of repeats of each heptagonal number appearing in the sum. In particular, we investigate the classification of such…
We give a short proof of the $L^{1}$ criterion for Beurling generalized integers to have a positive asymptotic density. We actually prove the existence of density under a weaker hypothesis. We also discuss related sufficient conditions for…
We derive an asymptotic formula for the sum $$ H = \sum_{0<\gamma_k\leqslant T,\, 1\leqslant k\leqslant m}h(a_1\gamma_1+a_2\gamma_2+\cdots + a_m\gamma_m), $$ where $a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_m$ are integers whose sum equals zero, $\gamma_1,…
Let $G=\mathop{A\ast B}\limits_C$ be an amalgamated product of finite rank free groups $A$, $B$ and $C$. We introduce atomic measures and corresponding asymptotic densities on a set of normal forms of elements in $G$. We also define two…
To prove that a polynomial is nonnegative on R^n one can try to show that it is a sum of squares of polynomials (SOS). The latter problem is now known to be reducible to a semidefinite programming (SDP) computation much faster than…
A subset $A$ of a commutative semigroup $X$ is called a $B_h$ set in $X$ if the only solutions to $a_1+\dots+a_h = b_1 + \cdots +b_h$ (with $a_i,b_i \in A$) are the trivial solutions $\{a_1,\dots,a_h\} = \{b_1,\dots,b_h\}$ (as multisets).…
We show that for any positive integer $h$, either $h$ or $h+1$ is a height of some cyclotomic polynomial $\Phi_n$, where $n$ is a product of three distinct primes.
A $ B_h $ set (or Sidon set of order $ h $) in an Abelian group $ G $ is any subset $ \{b_0, b_1, \ldots,b_{n}\} $ of $ G $ with the property that all the sums $ b_{i_1} + \cdots + b_{i_h} $ are different up to the order of the summands.…
Let $(G_n(x))_{n=0}^\infty$ be a $d$-th order linear recurrence sequence having polynomial characteristic roots, one of which has degree strictly greater than the others. Moreover, let $m\geq 2$ be a given integer. We ask for…
Given a function f with an absolutely convergent Fourier series, we define the norm of f as ||f||_A = the sum of absolute values of the Fourier coefficients of f. We study the behavior of ||f^n||_A as n goes to infinity, for f of the form…
Fix integers $b>a\geq1$ with $g:=\gcd(a,b)$. A set $S\subseteq\mathbb{N}$ is \emph{$\{a,b\}$-multiplicative} if $ax\neq by$ for all $x,y\in S$. For all $n$, we determine an $\{a,b\}$-multiplicative set with maximum cardinality in $[n]$, and…
We give a construction of an absolutely normal real number $x$ such that for every integer $b $ greater than or equal to $2$, the discrepancy of the first $N$ terms of the sequence $(b^n x \mod 1)_{n\geq 0}$ is of asymptotic order…
Let $x \geq 1$ be a large number, let $f(x) \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ be a prime polynomial of degree $\text{deg}(f)=m$, and let $u\ne \pm 1, v^2$ be a fixed integer. Assuming the Bateman-Horn conjecture, an asymptotic counting function for the…
Let $\mathbf{S}$ be the set of all finite or infinite increasing sequences of positive integers. For a sequence $S=\{s(n)\}, n\geq1,$ from $\mathbf{S},$ let us call a positive number $N$ an exponentially $S$-number $(N\in E(S)),$ if all…
The well known binary and decimal representations of the integers, and other similar number systems, admit many generalisations. Here, we investigate whether still every integer could have a finite expansion on a given integer base b, when…
