Let $[\, \cdot\,]$ be the floor function. In this paper we show that every sufficiently large positive integer $N$ can be represented in the form \begin{equation*} N=[p_1\log p_1]+[p_2\log p_2]+[p_3\log p_3], \end{equation*} where $p_1,\,…

We announce here a number of results concerning representation theory of the algebra $R=k<x,y>/ (xy-yx-y^2)$, known as Jordan plane (or Jordan algebra). We consider the question on 'classification' of finite-dimensional modules over the…

A hyperbinary partition of the nonnegative integer n is a partition where every part is a power of 2 and every part appears at most twice. We give three applications of the length generating function for such partitions, denoted by h_q(n).…

The partial Stirling numbers T_n(k) used here are defined as the sum over odd values of i of (n choose i) i^k. Their 2-exponents nu(T_n(k)) are important in algebraic topology. We provide many specific results, applying to all values of n,…
