We establish two results regarding the query complexity of bounded-error randomized algorithms. * Bounded-error separation theorem. There exists a total function $f : \{0,1\}^n \to \{0,1\}$ whose $\epsilon$-error randomized query complexity…
Let $u_{2j}$ be the product of the odd positive integers $< 2j$. For $n$ an integer $\ge 1$, define \[ f(x)=\sum_{j=0}^{n}a_j\frac{x^{2j}}{u_{2j+2}}, \] where the $a_j$'s are arbitrary integers with $|a_0|=1$. In 1929, I. Schur established…
By adapting the moment method developed by Granville and Soundararajan [17], Khan, Milinovich and Subedi [24] recently obtained a weighted version of the Erd\H{o}s--Kac theorem for $\omega(n)$ with multiplicative weight $d_k(n)$, where…
The Erd\H{o}s-Straus conjecture is a renowned problem which describes that for every natural number $n~(\ge 2)$, $\frac{4}{n}$ can be represented as the sum of three unit fractions. The main purpose of this study is to show that the…
For any fixed $k\geq 2$, we prove that every sufficiently large integer can be expressed as the sum of a $k$th power of a prime and a number with at most $M(k)=6k$ prime factors. For sufficiently large $k$ we also show that one can take…
In this paper analyzes \textit{The Erd\H{o}s-Straus conjecture} asserts that $f$$(n)$ $>$ 0 for every $n$ $\geq$ 2, where $f(n)$ indicates the number of solutions to the Diophantine Equation…
We provide a uniform bound on the partial sums of multiplicative functions under very general hypotheses. As an application, we give a nearly optimal estimate for the count of $n \le x$ for which the Alladi-Erd\H{o}s function $A(n) =…
The results presented in this paper are refinements of some results presented in a previous paper. Three such refined results are presented. The first one relaxes one of the basic hypotheses assumed in the previous paper, and thus extends…
Let $d(n)$ be the divisor function and it is well known that $\sum_{1\leq n \leq x}d(n) = x\log x+(2\gamma-1)x +\mathcal{O}\left(x^{\theta+\epsilon}\right)$ where $\gamma$ is the Euler constant, $\epsilon>0$ and $1/4<\theta<1/3$. In this…
A recent refinement of Ker\'ekj\'art\'o's Theorem has shown that in $\mathbb R$ and $\mathbb R^2$ all $\mathcal C^l$-solutions of the functional equation $f^n =\textrm{Id}$ are $\mathcal C^l$-linearizable, where $l\in \{0,1,\dots \infty\}$.…
Given relatively prime positive integers, $a_1,\ldots,a_n$, the Frobenius number is the largest integer with no representations of the form $a_1x_1+\cdots+a_nx_n$ with nonnegative integers $x_i$. This classical value has recently been…
We extend Agler's notion of a function algebra defined in terms of test functions to include products, in analogy with the practice in real algebraic geometry, and hence the term preordering in the title. This is done over abstract sets and…
It is well known that Erd\H{o}s Matching Conjecture concerns the maximum number of hyperedges in an $r$-uniform hypergraph with bounded matching number. As a generalization, it is natural to ask for the maximum number of copies of…
Let $\mathbf{k} := (k_1,\dots,k_s)$ be a sequence of natural numbers. For a graph $G$, let $F(G;\mathbf{k})$ denote the number of colourings of the edges of $G$ with colours $1,\dots,s$ such that, for every $c \in \{1,\dots,s\}$, the edges…
S. Banach \cite{Banach} proved that good differential properties of function do not guarantee the a.e. convergence of the Fourier series of this function with respect to general orthonormal systems (ONS). On the other hand it is very well…
For integer $n\geqslant 1$ and real $u$, let $\Delta(n,u):=|\{d:d\mid n,\,{\rm e}^u<d\leqslant {\rm e}^{u+1}\}|$. The Erd\H{o}s--Hooley Delta-function is then defined by $\Delta(n):=\max_{u\in{\mathbb R}}\Delta(n,u).$ We improve a recent…
In 2013, Sun conjectured that the partition function $p(n)$ is never a perfect power for $n \geq 2$. Building on this, Merca, Ono, and Tsai recently observed that for any fixed integers $d \geq 0$ and $k \geq 2$, there appear to be only…
For given set of $m$ positive numbers satisfying the conditions: $$ a_1 \geq a_2 \geq , ... \geq a_m \geq 0, $$ the inequality $$ \sum_{s=1}^{m} (-1)^{s-1}a^r_s \geq \left[ \sum_{s=1}^{m} (-1)^{s-1}a_s\right]^r, \quad r > 1, $$ was proved…
Let $a$ and $b$ be positive integers. In 1946, Erd\H{o}s and Niven proved that there are only finitely many positive integers $n$ for which one or more of the elementary symmetric functions of $1/b, 1/(a+b),..., 1/(an-a+b)$ are integers. In…
Let $a(n)$ be the number of partitions of $n$ of the form $a_1 + a_2 + \cdots + a_k$ where $a_{i + 1}$ is a proper divisor of $a_i$ for all $i < k$. Erd{\H o}s and Loxton showed that the sum of $a(n)$ over all $n \leq x$ is asymptotic to a…
