We describe an inequality of finite or infinite sequences of real numbers and their quotients. More precisely, we compare the quotient of H\"older functionals of two sequences of numbers with the sum of their quotients. In the last section…

A sharp inequality for $\ell_p$ quasi-norm with $0<p\leq 1$ and $\ell_q$-norm with $q>1$ is derived, which shows that the difference between $\|\textbf{\textit{x}}\|_p$ and $\|\textbf{\textit{x}}\|_q$ of an $n$-dimensional signal…

A Hardy inequality of the form \[\int_{\tilde{\Omega}} |\nabla f({\bf{x}})|^p d {\bf{x}} \ge (\frac{p-1}{p})^p \int_{\tilde{\Omega}} \{1 + a(\delta, \partial \tilde{\Omega})(\x)\}\frac{|f({\bf{x}})|^p}{\delta({\bf{x}})^p} d{\bf{x}}, \] for…

This article examines the nontrivial solutions of the congruence \[ (p-1)\cdots(p-r) \equiv -1 \pmod p. \] We discuss heuristics for the proportion of primes $p$ that have exactly $N$ solutions to this congruence. We supply numerical…

We prove higher H\"older regularity for solutions of equations involving the fractional $p-$Laplacian of order $s$, when $p\ge 2$ and $0<s<1$. In particular, we provide an explicit H\"older exponent for solutions of the non-homogeneous…

Let $p$ be a prime and let $x$ be a $p$-adic integer. We provide two supercongruences for truncated series of the form $$\sum_{k=1}^{p-1} \frac{(x)_k}{(1)_k}\cdot \frac{1}{k}\sum_{1\le j_1\le\cdots\le j_r\le k}\frac{1}{j_1^{}\cdots…

It is known that there are infinitely-many prime numbers which take the form of a polynomial of degree one with integer coefficients, this is Dirichlet's theorem. We use an elementary sieving argument together with bounds on the prime…

We present a unified approach to improved $L^p$ Hardy inequalities in $\R^N$. We consider Hardy potentials that involve either the distance from a point, or the distance from the boundary, or even the intermediate case where distance is…

The classical Rellich inequalities imply that the $L^2$-norms of the normal and tangential derivatives of a harmonic function are equivalent. In this note, we prove several refined inequalities, which make sense even if the domain is not…

We want to prove a Harnack type inequality for solutions of strongly degenerate parabolic, or elliptic-parabolic, equations. To do that, we first define a De Giorgi class of order $p = 2$ that contains the solutions of evolution equations…

We represent the sums $\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}{n \choose k}^{-2}$, $\sum_{k=0}^m{m\choose k}^{-1}{a\choose n-k}^{-1}$, $\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}\frac{q^{-k(k-1)}}{{\genfrac{[}{]}{0pt}{}{n}{k}}_q}$, and the sum of the reciprocals of the summands in Dixon's…

Let $p\geq 3$ be a prime and $n\geq 1$ be an integer. Let $K\subseteq {\mathbb{F}_p}$ denote a fixed subset with $0\in K$. Let $A\subseteq ({\mathbb{F}_p})^n$ be an arbitrary subset such that $$\{…

The twin prime conjecture asserts that there are infinitely many pairs of primes that differ by two. While recent advances have improved our understanding of bounded prime gaps, the conjecture remains unresolved. This paper refines the…

Let $p(n)$ denote the partition function. DeSalvo and Pak proved that $\frac{p(n-1)}{p(n)}\left(1+\frac{1}{n}\right)> \frac{p(n)}{p(n+1)}$ for $n\geq 2$, as conjectured by Chen. Moreover, they conjectured that a sharper inequality…

We prove a refined version of Markov's theorem in Diophantine approximation. More precisely, we characterize completely the set of irrationals $x$ such that $\left|x-\frac{p}{q}\right|<\frac{1}{3q^2}$ has only finitely many rational…

This paper is concerned with nonlinear elliptic equations in nondivergence form where the operator has a first order drift term which is not Lipschitz continuous. Under this condition the equations are nonhomogeneous and nonnegative…

The purpose of this paper is to prove a uniform convergence rate of the solutions of the $p$-Laplace equation $\Delta_p u = 0$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions to the solution of the infinity-Laplace equation $\Delta_\infty u = 0$ as…

Many generating series of combinatorially interesting numbers have the property that the sum of the terms of order $<p$ at some suitable point is congruent to a zero of a zeta-function modulo infinitely many primes $p$. Surprisingly, very…

Rosser and Schoenfeld remarked that the product $\prod_{p\leq x}(1-1/p)^{-1}$ exceeds $e^{\gamma} \log x$ for all $2\leq x\leq 10^8$, and raised the question whether the difference changes sign infinitely often. This was confirmed in a…

Let $P_+$ be the Riesz's projection operator and let $P_-= I - P_+$. We consider the inequalities of the following form $$ \|f\|_{L^p(\mathbb{T})}\leq B_{p,s}\|( |P_ + f | ^s + |P_- f |^s) ^{\frac 1s}\|_{L^p (\mathbb{T})} $$ and prove them…
