Let X be a separable Banach space which admits a separating polynomial; in particular X a separable Hilbert space. Let $f:X \rightarrow R$ be bounded, Lipschitz, and $C^1$ with uniformly continuous derivative. Then for each {\epsilon}>0,…

The class of uniformly computable real functions with respect to a small subrecursive class of operators computes the elementary functions of calculus, restricted to compact subsets of their domains. The class of conditionally computable…

We will study the solutions to the equation $f(n) - g(n) = c$, where $f$ and $g$ are multiplicative functions and $c$ is a constant. More precisely, we prove that the number of solutions does not exceed $c^{1-\epsilon}$ when $f, g$ and…

The Kalm\'ar function K(n) counts the ordered factorizations of n as a product of integers bigger than 1. We precise the maximal order of K(n) and give several properties of the K-champions, where n is a K-champion if K(m) < K(n) for all m…

Let C be a general connected, smooth, projective curve of positive genus g. For each nonnegative integer i we give formulas for the number of pairs (P,Q) em C x C off the diagonal such that (g+i-1)Q-(i+1)P is linearly equivalent to an…

Let $q\geqslant2$ be an integer, $\chi$ be any non-principal character mod $q$, and $H=H(q)\leqslant q.$ In this paper the authors prove some estimates for character sums of the form…

We study several cardinal, and ordinal--valued functions that are relatives of Hanf numbers. Let kappa be an infinite cardinal, and let T subseteq L_{kappa^+, omega} be a theory of cardinality <= kappa, and let gamma be an ordinal >=…

A graph $G$ is cordial if there exists a function $f$ from the vertices of $G$ to $\{0,1\}$ such that the number of vertices labelled $0$ and the number of vertices labelled $1$ differ by at most $1$, and if we assign to each edge $xy$ the…

Critical two-point correlation functions in the continuous and lattice phi^4 models with scalar order parameter phi are considered. We show by different non-perturbative methods that the critical correlation functions <phi^n(0) phi^m(x)>…

Let $G_n$ be the group of permutations on $\mathbb{Z}_n$ that is induced by a Dickson polynomial, where $n$ is a positive integer. In this work, by solving special types of systems of linear congruences, we obtain $G_n$. In addition, we…

We show that if G is a graph of sufficiently large order n containing as many r-cliques as the r-partite Turan graph of order n; then for some C>0 G has more than Cn^(r-1) (r+1)-cliques sharing a common edge unless G is isomorphic to the…

Let lambda be aleph_0 or a strong limit of cofinality aleph_0. Suppose that (G_m,p_{m,n}:m =< n<omega) and (H_m,p^t_{m,n}: m=< n < omega) are projective systems of groups of cardinality less than lambda and suppose that for every n<omega…

We show that if two continuous semi-simple \(\ell \)-adic Galois representations are locally potentially equivalent at a sufficiently large set of places then they are globaly potentially equivalent. We also prove an analogous result for…

We develop a theory of real numbers as rational Cauchy sequences, in which any two of them, $(a_n)$ and $(b_n)$, are equal iff $\lim\,(a_n-b_n)=0$. We need such reals in the Countable Mathematical Analysis ([4]) which allows to use only…

This paper proves that the characteristic polynomial is a complete unitary invariant for pairs of projection matrices. Some special cases involving three or more projections are also considered.

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…

For a polynomial map $\mathbf{f} : k^n \to k^m$ ($k$ a field), we investigate those polynomials $g \in k[t_1,\ldots, t_n]$ that can be written as a composition $g = h \circ \mathbf{f}$, where $h: k^m \to k$ is an arbitrary function. In the…

We improve well-known results concerning normal families and shared values of meromorphic functions in the plane. In particular, we obtain two corollaries concerning meromorphic functions $f \colon {\mathbb C} \to {\widehat{\mathbb C}}$: i)…

We prove inequalities on non-integer powers of products of generalized matrices functions on the sum of positive semi-definite matrices. For example, for any real number $r \in \{1\} \cup [2, \infty)$, positive semi-definite matrices $A_i,\…

The Stern sequence (s(n)) is defined by s(0) = 0, s(1) = 1, s(2n) = s(n), s(2n+1) = s(n) + s(n+1). Stern showed in 1858 that gcd(s(n),s(n+1)) = 1, and that for every pair of relatively prime positive integers (a,b), there exists a unique n…
