Turing's famous 'machine' framework provides an intuitively clear conception of 'computing with real numbers'. A recursive counterexample to a theorem shows that the theorem does not hold when restricted to computable objects. These…
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.…
A survey of recent results in elementary number theory is presented in this paper. Special attention is given to structure and asymptotic properties of certain families of positive integers.
We consider the integers having the property of reversing when multiplied by a specific integer k. First, we proved that k should be either 1, 4 or 9. Second, we classify these integers as (10, 1)- reverse multiples, (10, 4)- reverse…
Let $X$ be a set of positive integers, and let $\mathbb Z_K$ be the ring of integers of a number field $K$ of degree $n$. Denote by $N(I)$ the absolute norm of an ideal $I$ of $\mathbb Z_K$, and by $\mathcal A$ the set of principal ideals…
We obtain results bounding the degree of the series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} 1/\alpha_n$, where $\{\alpha_n\}$ is a sequence of algebraic integers satisfying certain algebraic conditions and growth conditions. Our results extend results of…
In this paper, we mainly show that generalized hyperharmonic number sums with reciprocal binomial coefficients can be expressed in terms of classical (alternating) Euler sums, zeta values and generalized (alternating) harmonic numbers.
Suppose that $\langle f_n \rangle$ is a sequence of polynomials, $\langle f_n^{(k)}(0)\rangle$ converges for every non-negative integer $k$, and that the limit is not $0$ for some $k$. It is shown that if all the zeros of $f_1, f_2, \dots$…
This paper describes a new link between combinatorial number theory and geometry. The main result states that A is a finite set of relatively prime positive integers if and only if A = (K-K) \cap N, where K is a compact set of real numbers…
In the preceding decade, Andrews and Newman resurrected the concept of a `minimal excludant' of a partition ($mex$, for short), namely, the least positive missing integer in a partition. Subsequently, several authors have not only studied…
In the several contexts such as combinatorial number theory, families of sets of positive integers closed under taking subsets have been investigated. Then it is sometimes useful to give bijections between the set of the one-sided infinite…
Let $\mathscr{X}$ be the set of positive real sequences $x=(x_n)$ such that the series $\sum_n x_n$ is divergent. For each $x \in \mathscr{X}$, let $\mathcal{I}_x$ be the collection of all $A\subseteq \mathbf{N}$ such that the subseries…
Treating divergent series properly has been an ongoing issue in mathematics. However, many of the problems in divergent series stem from the fact that divergent series were discovered prior to having a number system which could handle them.…
We generalize the classical Olivier's theorem which says that for any convergent series $\sum_n a_n$ with positive nonincreasing real terms the sequence $(n a_n)$ tends to zero. Our results encompass many known generalizations of Olivier's…
We prove that Hilbert's Tenth Problem for a ring of integers in a number field K has a negative answer if K satisfies two arithmetical conditions (existence of a so-called division-ample set of integers and of an elliptic curve of rank one…
A Friedman number is a positive integer which is the result of an expression combining all of its own digits by use of the four basic operations, exponentiation and digit concatenation. A "nice" Friedman number is a Friedman number for…
The law of large numbers for the empirical density for the pairs of uniformly distributed integers with a given greatest common divisor is a classic result in number theory. In this paper, we study the large deviations of the empirical…
The purpose of this paper is to introduce the concept of reflecting numbers to the realm of number theory and to classify reflecting numbers of certain types. For us, reflecting numbers are coming from congruent numbers, above congruent…
Let $I(b,d,k)$ be the subseries of the harmonic series keeping the integers having exactly $k$ occurrences of the digit $d$ in base $b$. We prove the existence of an asymptotic expansion to all orders in descending powers of $b$, for fixed…
We study a family of integrable systems of nonlinearly coupled harmonic oscillators on the classical and quantum levels. We show that the integrability of these systems follows from their symmetry characterized by algebras called here…
