Using properties of Gauss and Jacobi sums, we derive explicit formulas for the number of solutions to a diagonal equation of the form $x_1^{2^m}+\dots+x_n^{2^m}=0$ over a finite field of characteristic $p\equiv\pm 3\pmod{8}$. All of the…

Let Q be a non-singular quadratic form with integer coefficients. When Q is indefinite we provide new upper bounds for the least non-trivial integral solution to the equation Q=0. When Q is positive definite we provide improved upper bounds…

Theorem. An irreducible cubic polynomial with rational coefficients has a root in a one step radical extension of Q if and only if the discriminate is a square of a rational number. Theorem. An irreducible polynomial x^4+px^2+qx+s with…

We give congruences modulo powers of $p \in \{3, 5,7\}$ for the Fourier coefficients of certain modular functions in level $p$ with poles only at 0, answering a question posed by Andersen and the first author and continuing work done by the…

We give an asymptotic formula for the number of non-zero coefficients of modular forms (mod p).

We are interested in finding a nonlinear polynomial $P$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ that solves the minimal surface equation. Even though no explicit solution is found in this article, we investigate constraints that a polynomial solution must obey.…

For a composite $n$ and an odd $c$ with $c$ not dividing $n$, the number of solutions to the equation $n+a\equiv b\mod c$ with $a,b$ quadratic residues modulus $c$ is calculated. We establish a direct relation with those modular solutions…

We use bounds of mixed character sum to study the distribution of solutions to certain polynomial systems of congruences modulo a prime $p$. In particular, we obtain nontrivial results about the number of solution in boxes with the side…

A recent article of Berndt and Yee found congruences modulo 3^k for certain ratios of Eisenstein series. For all but one of these, we show there are no simple congruences a(pn+c) = 0 modulo p when p>= 13 is prime. This follows from a more…

Let $p_2(n)$ denote the number of cubic partitions. In this paper, we shall present two new congruences modulo $11$ for $p_2(n)$. We also provide an elementary alternative proof of a congruence established by Chan. Furthermore, we will…

A representation of the Pad\'e approximation of the $Z$-transform of a signal as a resolvent of a tridiagonal matrix $J$ is given. Several formulas for the poles, zeros and residues of the Pad\'e approximation in terms of the matrix $J$ are…

We describe all sets $A \subseteq \F_p$ which represent the quadratic residues $R \subseteq \F_p$ as $R=A+A$ and $R=A\hat{+} A$. Also, we consider the case of an approximate equality $R \approx A+A$ and $R \approx A\hat{+} A$ and prove that…

In this paper we explore Kruyswijk's method and show how to obtain congruences for cubic partition. That apart we also examine inequalities for a(n) and provide upper bound for it in the fashion of the classic partition function p(n).

In this paper, we shall present an interesting and significant refinement of a classical result of Cauchy about the moduli of the zeros of a quaternionic polynomial. As an application of this result we shall obtain zero-free regions of…

We prove that if $p \equiv 4,7 \pmod{9}$ is prime and $3$ is not a cube modulo $p$, then both of the equations $x^3+y^3=p$ and $x^3+y^3=p^2$ have a solution with $x,y \in \mathbb{Q}$.

Let g be a cubic polynomial with integer coefficients and n>9 variables, and assume that the congruence g=0 modulo p^k is soluble for all prime powers p^k. We show that the equation g=0 has infinitely many integer solutions when the cubic…
