We study sums of the form $\sum_{k=m}^n a_{nk} b_{km}$, where $a_{nk}$ and $b_{km}$ are binomial coefficients or unsigned Stirling numbers. In a few cases they can be written in closed form. Failing that, the sums still share many common…

We consider a multiple arithmetical sum involving the Moebius function which despite its elementary appearance is in fact of a highly intriguing nature. We establish an asymptotic formula for the quadruple case that raises the first…

It is known that every matrix of order n over the maximal order in an algebraic number eld is a sum of k-th powers in various cases if a discriminant condition is satis ed. It has been proved by Wadikar and Katre that for every matrix of…

Let $\mathcal{A}(n)$ be the $(1,n)-th$ Fourier coefficients of $SL(3,\mathbb{Z})$ Hecke-Maass cusp form i.e. $\Lambda(1,n)$ or the triple divisor function $d_3(n)$, which is the number of solutions of the equation $r_1r_2r_3 = n$ with $r_1,…

Let $r_{k}(n)$ denote the number of representations of the positive integer $n$ as the sum of $k$ squares. We prove a generalization of a summation formula already proved by us [Advances in Applied Mathematics, 175 (2026) 103201], which…

We give a new proof of Milne's formulas for the number of representations of an integer as a sum of 4m^2 and 4m(m+1) squares. The proof is based on explicit evaluation of pfaffians with elliptic function entries, and relates Milne's…

A sharp asymptotic formula for the sum of reciprocals of $\pi(n)$ is derived, where $\pi(x)$ is the number of primes not exceeding $x$. This result improves the previous results of De Koninck--Ivi\'c and L. Panaitopol.

This paper deals with function field analogues of the famous theorem of Landau which gives the asymptotic density of sums of two squares in $\mathbb{Z}$. We define the analogue of a sum of two squares in $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ and estimate the…

A sum-of-squares is a polynomial that can be expressed as a sum of squares of other polynomials. Determining if a sum-of-squares decomposition exists for a given polynomial is equivalent to a linear matrix inequality feasibility problem.…
