We characterize sequences of positive integers $(a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_n)$ for which the $2\times2$ matrix $\left( \begin{array}{cc} a_n&-1 1&0 \end{array} \right) \left( \begin{array}{cc} a_{n-1}&-1 1&0 \end{array} \right) \cdots \left(…

We study partitions of complex numbers as sums of non-negative powers of a fixed algebraic number $\beta$. We prove that if $\beta$ is real quadratic, then the number of partitions is always finite if and only if some conjugate of $\beta$…

A positive integer $n$ is said to be a Zumkeller number or an integer-perfect number if the set of its positive divisors can be partitioned into two subsets of equal sums. In this paper, we prove several results regarding Zumkeller numbers.…

In this paper, we study the partition functions $\overline{R_\ell^\ast}(n)$, which count the number of overpartitions of $n$ where the non-overlined parts are $\ell$-regular for a given $\ell$. Using elementary techniques, as well as the…

Ramanujan's celebrated partition congruences modulo $\ell\in \{5, 7, 11\}$ assert that $$ p(\ell n+\delta_{\ell})\equiv 0\pmod{\ell}, $$ where $0<\delta_{\ell}<\ell$ satisfies $24\delta_{\ell}\equiv 1\pmod{\ell}.$ By proving Subbarao's…

In this paper, we prove that there are infinitely many primes of the form $\ell^2 - \ell m + m^2$ such that $2\ell - m$ is also prime. To prove this, we follow along the lines of the work of Fouvry and Iwaniec (1997) who showed that there…

We prove that, if $x$ and $q\leqslant x^{1/16}$ are two parameters, then for any invertible residue class $a$ modulo $q$ there exists a product of exactly three primes, each one below $x^{1/3}$, that is congruent to $a$ modulo $q$.

We prove the equivalence of a class of generalised Schur partition functions $\mathcal Z_G(q;\alpha)$ of 4d $\mathcal N=2$ superconformal gauge theories to contour integral representations of vector-valued modular forms of the type that…

For $\alpha >0$, let $$\mathscr{A}=\{ a_1<a_2<a_3<\cdots\}$$ and $$\mathscr{L}=\{ \ell_1, \ell_2, \ell_3,\cdots\} \quad \text{(not~necessarily~different)}$$ be two sequences of positive integers with $\mathscr{A}(m)>(\log m)^\alpha $ for…

Let $p$ be a prime, $m$ be a positive integer ( $m \geq 1$, and $m \geq 2$ if $p=2$), and $\chi_n$ be a multiplicative complex character on $\mathbb F^*_{p^m}$ with order $n| (p^m-1)$. We show that a partition $\mathcal A_1 \cup \mathcal…

In this article, we give a family of examples of algebras, showing that for every $n \geq 2$ and $m \geq 0$, there is an algebra displaying a path of n irreducible morphisms between indecomposable modules whose composite lies in the…

An M-partition of a positive integer m is a partition with as few parts as possible such that any positive integer less than m has a partition made up of parts taken from that partition of m. This is equivalent to partitioning a weight m so…

In his book "250 Problems in Elementary Number Theory", W.Sierpinski shows that the numbers 1+2^(2^n)+2^(2^n+1) are divisible by 21; for n=1,2,.... In this paper, we prove a similar but more general result.Consider the natural numbers of…

Recently there has been quite a bit of study carried out related to arithmetic properties of overpartitions into non-multiples of two co-prime integers. The paper [19] by Nadji et al. looked into congruences modulo $3$ and powers of $2$ for…

In the present paper we obtain new upper bound estimates for the number of solutions of the congruence $$ x\equiv y r\pmod p;\quad x,y\in \mathbb{N},\quad x,y\le H,\quad r\in\cU, $$ for certain ranges of $H$ and $|\cU|$, where $\cU$ is a…

Given a polynomial $f(x_1,x_2,\ldots, x_t)$ in $t$ variables with integer coefficients and a positive integer $n$, let $\alpha(n)$ be the number of integers $0\leq a<n$ such that the polynomial congruence $f(x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_t)\equiv a\…

We prove that, for almost all $r \leq N^{1/2}/\log^{O(1)}N$, for any given $b_1 \mod r$ with $(b_1, r) = 1$, and for almost all $b_2 \mod r$ with $(b_2, r) = 1$, we have that almost all natural numbers $2n \leq N$ with $2n \equiv b_1 + b_2…
