Let $\mathcal{A}=\{a_{n}\}_{n=1}^{\infty}$ and $\mathcal{B}=\{b_{n}\}_{n=1}^{\infty}$ be two sequences of positive integers (not necessarily distinct). Under some restrictions on $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$, we obtain a lower bound for…

Let A be a set of integers and let h \geq 2. For every integer n, let r_{A, h}(n) denote the number of representations of n in the form n=a_1+...+a_h, where a_1,...,a_h belong to the set A, and a_1\leq ... \leq a_h. The function r_{A,h}…

Let $h \geq 2$ and let ${ \mathcal A} = (A_1,\ldots, A_h)$ be an $h$-tuple of sets of integers. For nonzero integers $c_1,\ldots, c_h$, consider the linear form $\varphi = c_1 x_1 + c_2x_2 + \cdots + c_h x_h$. The \emph{representation…

Fix an integer $h \geq 2$, and let $b_1, \ldots, b_h$ be (not necessarily distinct) positive integers with $\gcd(b_1, \ldots, b_h) = 1$. For any subset $A \subseteq \mathbb{N}$, let $r_A(n)$ denote the number of solutions $(k_1, \ldots,…

In this paper we prove that if $A$ and $B$ are infinite subsets of positive integers such that every positive integer $n$ can be written as $n=ab$, $a\in A$, $b\in B$, then $\displaystyle \lim_{x\to \infty}\frac{A(x)B(x)}{x}=\infty $. We…

Assuming that the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH) holds, we prove an explicit formula for the number of representations of an integer as a sum of $k\geq 5$ primes. Our error terms in such a formula improve by some logarithmic factors…

In this paper, we study the number of representations of a positive integer $n$ by two positive integers whose product is a multiple of a polygonal number.

For a natural number $k>1$, let $f_k(n)$ denote the number of distinct representations of a natural number $n$ of the form $p^k+q^k$ for primes $p,q$. We prove that, for all $k>1$, $$\limsup_{n\to\infty}f_k(n)=\infty.$$ This positively…

It is proved that all sufficiently large integers $n$ can be represented as $$n=x_1^2+x_2^3+\cdots+x_{13}^{14},$$ where $x_1,\ldots,x_{13}$ are positive integers. This improves upon the current record with $14$ variables in place of $13$.

Let $m$ be a positive integer and $b_{m}(n)$ be the number of partitions of $n$ with parts being powers of 2, where each part can take $m$ colors. We show that if $m=2^{k}-1$, then there exists the natural density of integers $n$ such that…

For $h \geq 1$, a $B_h$-set is a set of integers such that every integer $n$ has at most one representation in the form $n = a_{i_1} + \cdots + a_{i_h}$, where $a_{i_r} \in A$ for all $r = 1,\ldots, h$ and $a_{i_1} \leq \ldots \leq…

Given an integer $g$ and also some given integers $m$ (sufficiently large) and $c_1,\dots, c_m$, we show that the number of all non-negative integers $n\le M$ with the property that there exist non-negative integers $k_1,\dots, k_m$ such…

We study a generalisation of the bipartite Ramsey numbers to blowups of graphs. For a graph $G$, denote the $t$-blowup of $G$ by $G[t]$. We say that $G$ is $r$-Ramsey for $H$, and write $G \stackrel{r}{\rightarrow} H$, if every…

Let $(G_n(x))_{n=0}^\infty$ be a $d$-th order linear recurrence sequence having polynomial characteristic roots, one of which has degree strictly greater than the others. Moreover, let $m\geq 2$ be a given integer. We ask for…

Motivated by a 2001 problem of S\'ark\"ozy, we classify all situations of the integers $b,c,e$ and $f$ satisfying \begin{align*} \limsup_{n\rightarrow\infty}|d(\mathcal{A},bn+c)-d(\mathcal{A},en+f)|=\infty \end{align*} for any infinite…

We investigate here the representability of integers as sums of triangular numbers, where the $n$-th triangular number is given by $T_n = n(n + 1)/2$. In particular, we show that $f(x_1,x_2,..., x_k) = b_1 T_{x_1} +...+ b_k T_{x_k}$, for…

Let $r_{k}(n)$ denote the number of representations of the integer $n$ as a sum of $k$ squares. In this paper, we give an asymptotic for $r_{k}(n)$ when $n$ grows linearly with $k$. As a special case, we find that \[ r_{n}(n) \sim \frac{B…

For a set of natural numbers $A$, let $R_{A}(n)$ be the number of representations of a natural number $n$ as the sum of two terms from $A$. Many years ago, Nathanson studied the conditions for the set $A$ and $B$ of natural numbers that are…

We prove some general recursions for the numbers of representations of positive integers as a sum x+y, x in X, y in Y, where X,Y are increasing sequences. In particular, we obtain recursions for the number of the Goldbach, Lemoine-Levy,…

For $m\geq 1$, let $0<b_0<b_1<...<b_m$ and $\ e_0,e_1,...,e_m>0$ be fixed positive integers. Assume there exists a prime $p$ and an integer $t>0$ such that $p^t\mid b_0$, but $p^t\nmid b_{i}\ {\rm for}\ 1\leq i\leq m$. Then, we prove that…
