The divisor function $\sigma(n)$ denotes the sum of the divisors of the positive integer $n$. For a prime $p$ and $m \in \mathbb{N}$, the $p$-adic valuation of $m$ is the highest power of $p$ which divides $m$. Formulas for…

The divide-and-conquer framework, used extensively in classical algorithm design, recursively breaks a problem of size $n$ into smaller subproblems (say, $a$ copies of size $n/b$ each), along with some auxiliary work of cost…

We introduce a new arithmetic function $a(n)$ defined to be the number of random multiplications by residues modulo $n$ before the running product is congruent to 0 modulo $n$. We give several formulas for computing the values of this…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety. We study a relationship between the derived category of $X$ and that of a canonical divisor. As an application, we will study Fourier-Mukai transforms when $\kappa (X)=dim X-1$.

Let $d(n)$ and $d^{\ast}(n)$ be the numbers of divisors and the numbers of unitary divisors of the integer $n\geq1$. In this paper, we prove that \[ \underset{n\in\mathcal{B}}{\underset{n\leq x}{\sum}}\frac{d(n)}{d^{\ast}% (n)}=\frac{16\pi%…

We consider the problem of Gaussian approximation for the $\kappa$th coordinate of a sum of high-dimensional random vectors. Such a problem has been studied previously for $\kappa=1$ (i.e., maxima). However, in many applications, a general…

This paper examines the recursive sequence of polynomials $p_n(x)$, defined by $p_0(x) = x^2 - 2$ and $p_n(x) = p_{n-1}(x)^2 - 2$ for $n \geq 1$. It describes the field-theoretic motivations behind this sequence, derives a recursive formula…

In [CaballeroHooleyDelta], we associated a Dyck word $\langle\! \langle n \rangle\! \rangle_{\lambda}$ to any pair $(n, \lambda)$ consisting of an integer $n \geq 1$ and a real number $\lambda > 1$. The goal of the present paper is to show…

An interplay between the Lambert series and Euler's Pentagonal Number Theorem gives an Euler-type recurrence relation for any given arithmetical function. As consequences of this, we present Euler-type recurrence relations for some…

We define reflective numbers and their iterative summations. We provide classification of reflective numbers based on their iterative cyclical limits.

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…

We present a method of computing the generating function $f_P(\x)$ of $P$-partitions of a poset $P$. The idea is to introduce two kinds of transformations on posets and compute $f_P(\x)$ by recursively applying these transformations. As an…

Primitive recursion is a mature, well-understood topic in the theory and practice of programming. Yet its dual, primitive corecursion, is underappreciated and still seen as exotic. We aim to put them both on equal footing by giving a…

Based on the Goldbach conjecture and arithmetic fundamental theorem, the Goldbach conjecture was extended to more general situations, i.e., any positive integer can be written as summation of some specific prime numbers, which depends on…

In this paper, we consider the general divisor functions over Piatetski-Shapiro sequences. We can give some general results which contain some special divisor functions. Precisely, we extend the divisor problem over Piatetski-Shapiro…

The prime-counting function $\pi(x)$ which returns the number of primes smaller or equal to a given number is a topic of interest in number theory. An algorithm based on a cyclic group isomorphic to $Z/nZ$, the so-called $Z$-functions, was…

In this article we present certain formulas involving arithmetical functions. In the first part we study properties of sums and product formulas for general type of arithmetic functions. In the second part we apply these formulas to the…

The tiling problem has been a famous problem that has appeared in many Mathematics problems. Many of its solutions are rooted in high-level Mathematics. Thus we hope to tackle this problem using more elementary Mathematics concepts. In this…

Let $\overline{p}_o(n)$ denote the number of overpartitions of $n$ into odd parts. The partition function $\overline{p}_o(n)$ has been the subject of many recent studies where many explicit Ramanujan-like congruences were discovered. In…

In this paper, we study the arithmetic zeta function $$\mathscr{Z}_{\mathcal{X}}(s) = \prod_p \prod_{\substack{x \in \mathcal{X}_p \\ \text{closed}}} \Big( \frac{1}{1-|\kappa(x)|^{-s}} \Big)^{\mathfrak{m}_{p}(x)}$$ associated to a scheme…
