Let $P,Q\in\Bbb Z$, $U_0=0,\ U_1=1$ and $U_{n+1}=PU_n-QU_{n+1}$. In this paper we obtain a general congruence for $U_{kmn^r}/U_k\pmod {n^{r+1}}$, where $k,m,n,r$ are positive integers. As applications we extend Lucas' law of repetition and…

Bourgain posed the problem of calculating $$ \Sigma = \sup_{n \geq 1} ~\sup_{k_1 <... < k_n} \frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}\| \sum_{j=1}^n e^{2 \pi i k_j \theta}\|_{L^1([0,1])}. $$ It is clear that $\Sigma \leq 1$; beyond that, determining whether…

Let $w_{\alpha}(t)=t^{\alpha}\,e^{-t}$, $\alpha>-1$, be the Laguerre weight function, and $|\cdot|_{w_\alpha}$ denote the associated $L_2$-norm, i.e., $$ | f|_{w_\alpha}:=\Big(\int_{0}^{\infty}w_{\alpha}(t)| f(t)|^2\,dt\Big)^{1/2}. $$…

Let $M_n$ be an $n$ by $n$ random matrix where each entry is +1 or -1 independently with probability 1/2. Our main result implies that the probability that $M_n$ is singular is at most $(1/\sqrt{2} + o(1))^n$, improving on the previous best…

The conjectured Robin inequality for an integer $n>7!$ is $\sigma(n)<e^\gamma n \log \log n,$ where $\gamma$ denotes Euler constant, and $\sigma(n)=\sum_{d | n} d $. Robin proved that this conjecture is equivalent to Riemann hypothesis…

In this paper, we answer the question of equivalence, or singularity, of two given quasi-stationary Markov measures on one-sided infinite words, and the corresponding question of equivalence of associated Cuntz algebra $\O_N$…

Terpai [22] proved the Nordhaus-Gaddum bound that $\mu(G) + \mu(\overline{G}) \le 4n/3 - 1$, where $\mu(G)$ is the spectral radius of a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices. Let $s^+$ denote the sum of the squares of the positive eigenvalues of $G$.…

We give a survey of the Lagrange inversion formula, including different versions and proofs, with applications to combinatorial and formal power series identities.

Let $f$ be a Hecke-Maass cusp form for $\rm SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ with Laplace eigenvalue $\lambda_f(\Delta)=1/4+\mu^2$ and let $\lambda_f(n)$ be its $n$-th normalized Fourier coefficient. It is proved that, uniformly in $\alpha, \beta \in…

Given a connected graph $G$, the Randi\'c index $R(G)$ is the sum of $\tfrac{1}{\sqrt{d(u)d(v)}}$ over all edges $\{u,v\}$ of $G$, where $d(u)$ and $d(v)$ are the degree of vertices $u$ and $v$ respectively. Let $q(G)$ be the largest…

Based on an apparently new Lagrange-type identity, a Cauchy--Schwarz-type inequality is proved. The mentioned identity is obtained by using certain ``macro'' variables; it is hoped that such a method can be used to prove or produce other…

In this paper, we prove Deligne's conjecture on the algebraicity of critical values of symmetric power $L$-functions associated to modular forms of weight greater than four. We also prove new cases of Blasius' conjecture on the algebraicity…

It is well known that every positive integer N can be written as the sum of non-consecutive powers of the golden ratio. We prove that the non-positive powers, together with the parity of the first positive power, can determine the positive…

Generalized $m$-gonal numbers are those $p_m(x)= [ (m - 2)x^2 - (m - 4)x ]/2 $ where $x$ and $m$ are integers with $m \geq 3$. If any nonnegative integer can be written in the form $ap_r(h)+bp_s(l)+cp_t(m)+dp_u(n)$, where $a,b,c,d$ are…

In this paper, we derive the following asymptotic formula $$ \mathop{{\sum}'}_{n\leqslant x}\dfrac{r(n)}{r(n+1)} = {x}{(\ln x)^{-3/4}}(c+o(1)),\ \ x \to +\infty,$$ where $r(n)$ is the number of representations of $n$ as a sum of two…

During 2022--2023 Z.-W. Sun posed many conjectures on infinite series with summands involving generalized harmonic numbers. Motivated by this, we deduce $58$ series identities involving harmonic numbers, eight of which were previously…

This paper presents several notable properties of the matrix $\mathbb{U}$ shown to be related to the isomorphism between $H_4$ and $E_8$. The most significant of these properties is that $\mathbb{U}$.$\mathbb{U}$ is to rank 8 matrices what…

In this article, we collect the recent results concerning the representations of integers as sums of an even number of squares that are inspired by conjectures of Kac and Wakimoto. We start with a sketch of Milne's proof of two of these…

In this paper, we prove that an $n\times n$ matrix $A$ with independent centered subgaussian entries satisfies \[ s_{n+1-l}(A) \le C_1t \frac{l}{\sqrt{n}} \] with probability at least $1-\exp(-C_2tl)$. This yields $s_{n-l}(A) \sim…

The balancing numbers $B_n$ ($n=0,1,\cdots$) are solutions of the binary recurrence $B_n=6B_{n-1}-B_{n-2}$ ($n\ge 2$) with $B_0=0$ and $B_1=1$. In this paper we show several relations about the sums of product of two balancing numbers of…
