In the present paper we consider the trigonometric series with (b,r)-general monotone and (b,r)-rest bounded variation coefficients. Necessary and sufficien conditions of L-convergence for such series are obtained in terms of the…

We generalise the known fact that for binomial $X_{n,k} \sim \mathrm{Bin}(n, k/n)$ one has $\inf_{k>1,n} \mathrm{P}(X_{n,k} \geq k) \geq \lim_{k \to 1+}\mathrm{P}(X_{2,k} \geq k) = 1/4$ to cover probabilities of exceeding a constant shift…

We show that the de Bruijn-Erd\H{o}s condition for the error term in their improvement of Fekete's Lemma is not only sufficient but also necessary in the following strong sense. Suppose that given a sequence $0\leq f(1)\leq f(2)\leq…

Let $2^{[n]}$ and $\binom{[n]}{i}$ be the power set and the class of all $i$-subsets of $\{1,2,\cdots,n\}$, respectively. We call two families $\mathscr{A}$ and $\mathscr{B}$ cross-intersecting if $A\cap B\neq \emptyset$ for any $A\in…

For a fixed integer $k \ge 0$, consider representations of positive integers as sums of binomial coefficients of the form $\binom{n}{k}$. While exact minimal bounds for the number of required summands are known only in a few low-dimensional…

The bilateral binomial theorem with step width two gives a bilateral hypergeometric formula for 2H2(a, a+1/2; c, c+1/2; z).

Two groups $L_1$ and $L_2$ are compatible if there exists a finite group $G$ with isomorphic normal subgroups $N_1$ and $N_2$ such that $L_1\cong G/N_1$ and $L_2\cong G/N_2$. In this paper, we give new necessary conditions for two groups to…

Let $A(k)u(k)=f(k) (1)$ be an operator equation, $X$ and $Y$ are Banach spaces, $k\in\Delta\subset\C$ is a parameter, $A(k):X\to Y$ is a map, possibly nonlinear. Sufficient conditions are given for continuity of $u(k)$ with respect to $k$.…

We present several approaches on finding necessary and sufficient conditions on $n$ so that $\Phi_k(x^n)$ is irreducible where $\Phi_k$ is the $k$-th cyclotomic polynomial.

In this paper, by considering the common points of two conics instead of the roots of the binary quartic form, we propose a novel necessary and sufficient condition for the positivity of a binary quartic form using the theory of the pencil…

In this paper we shall find some sufficient conditions for a uniqueness polynomial to be a strong uniqueness polynomial, as this type of problem was never investigated by researchers earlier.We also exhibit some examples to substantiate our…

When searching for Calabi.Yau differential equations, often different formulas for the coefficients give the same differential equation. The coefficients are usually sums (simple, double or triple) of products of binomial coefficients. This…

Given l<s<m an upper bound on the s norm is given using l norm and m norm. The result is applied in bounding odd values of zeta function, binomial sums and gamma and beta functions.

If $s$ is a positive integer and $A$ is a set of positive integers, we say that $B$ is an $s$-divisor of $A$ if $\sum_{b\in B} b\mid s\sum_{a\in A} a$. We study the maximal number of $k$-subsets of an $n$-element set that can be…

We discuss two conjectures. (I) For each x_1,...,x_n \in R (C) there exist y_1,...,y_n \in R (C) such that \forall i \in {1,...,n} |y_i| \leq 2^{2^{n-2}} \forall i \in {1,...,n} (x_i=1 \Rightarrow y_i=1) \forall i,j,k \in {1,...,n}…

We conjecture that a 2-connected graph $G$ of order $n$, in which $d(x)+d(y)\geq n-k$ for every pair of non-adjacent vertices $x$ and $y$, contains a cycle of length $n-k$ ($k<n/2$), unless $G$ is bipartite and $n-k$ is odd. This…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a Fibonacci cycle to be residue complete (nondefective). In particular, the Lucas numbers modulo m is residue complete if and only if m = 2,4,6,7,14 or a power of 3.

In this paper, which is a follow-up to [A. Borobia, R. Canogar, F. De Ter\'an, Mediterr. J. Math. 18, 40 (2021)], we provide a necessary and sufficient condition for the matrix equation $X^\top AX=B$ to be consistent when $B$ is symmetric.…

The celebrated theorem of Komlos asserts that L1-boundedness is sufficient for a given sequence of functions to contain a subsequence along which (in a "lacunary" manner), and along whose every further subsequence ("hereditarily"), a strong…

We prove an existence theorem for the sliding boundary variant of the Plateau problem for $2$-dimensional sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$. The simplest case of sufficient condition is when $n=3$ and the boundary $\Gamma$ is a finite disjoint union…
