Let $A$ be a finite set of positive real numbers. We present a sum-division estimate: |A+A|^2|A/A|\geq\frac{|A|^4}{4}.
The Additive Transform of an arithmetic function represents a novel approach to examining the interplay between multiplicative arithmetic function and additive functions. This transform concept introduces a method to systematically generate…
A route to evaluate exact sums represented by Dirichlet eta and beta functions, both of which are alternating and divergent at negative integer arguments, is advocated. It rests on precise polynomial extrapolations and stands as a…
In this paper we introduce the concept of completeness of sets. We study this property on the set of integers. We examine how this property is preserved as we carry out various operations compatible with sets. We also introduce the problem…
Suppose that P is an infinite set of primes such that P = A + B + C, where A,B,C are sets with at least two elements. We show that if P(x) > c x/log^d x (where P(x) = the number of elements of P that are <= x), and if A,B,C is a "regular"…
In this paper, we first discussed multiplicative metric mapping by giving some topological properties of the relevant multiplicative metric space. As an interesting result of our discussions, we observed that the set of positive real…
Using some new observations connected to higher energies, we obtain quantitative lower bounds on $\max\{|AB|, |A+C| \}$ and $\max\{|(A+\alpha)B|, |A+C|\}$, $\alpha \neq 0$ in the regime when the sizes of finite subsets $A,B,C$ of a field…
We characterize the fixed sets of automorphisms of an arbitrary countable, arithmetically saturated structure.
For a cyclic group $a$, define the atom of $a$ as the set of all elements generating $a$. Given any two elements $a,b$ of a finite cyclic group $G$, we study the sumset of the atom of $a$ and the atom of $b$. It is known that such a sumset…
It is established that for any finite set of positive real numbers $A$, we have $$|A/A+A| \gg \frac{|A|^{\frac{3}{2}+\frac{1}{26}}}{\log^{1/2}|A|}.$$
In this paper we give a different approach to determining the cardinality of $h$-fold sumsets $hA$ when $A\subset \mathbb{Z}^d$ has $d+2$ elements. This enables us to provide more general result with a shorter and simpler proof. We also…
In this paper, considering a wider class of simulation functions some fixed point results for multivalued mappings in $\alpha$-complete metric spaces have been presented. Results obtained in this paper extend and generalize some well-known…
A subset $A$ of a group $G$ is called $(k, l)$-{\it sumset}, if $A= kB-lB$ for some $B\subseteq G$, where $kB-lB={x_1+...+x_k-x_{k+1}-...-x_{k+l} : x_1,..., x_{k+l}\in B}.$ Upper and lower bounds for the number $(k, l)$-sumsets in groups of…
In this note we find the optimal lower bound for the size of the sumsets $HA$ and $H\,\hat{}A$ over finite sets $H, A$ of nonnegative integers, where $HA = \bigcup_{h\in H} hA$ and $H\,\hat{}A = \bigcup_{h\in H} h\,\hat{}A$. We also find…
We obtain new results on the existence and multiplicity of fixed points of Hammerstein equations in very general cones. In order to achieve this, we combine a new formulation of cones in terms of continuous functionals with fixed point…
Given a set of integers $A$ and an integer $k$, write $A+k\cdot A$ for the set $\{a+kb:a\in A,b\in A\}$. Hanson and Petridis showed that if $|A+A|\le K|A|$ then $|A+2\cdot A|\le K^{2.95}|A|$. At a presentation of this result, Petridis…
This paper addresses the asymptotic approximations of the stable and unstable manifolds for the saddle fixed point and the 2-periodic solutions of the difference equation $x_{n+1} = \alpha + \beta x_{n-1}+x_{n-1}/x_{n},$ where $\alpha>0,$…
In this paper we give a very elementary proof that if A and B are subsets of {1,2,...,N}, each having at least 5N^{1 - (4(k-1))^{-1}} elements, then the sumset A+B has a k-term arithmetic progression.
The Tribonacci sequence $\mathbb{T}$ is the fixed point of the substitution $\sigma(a)=ab$, $\sigma(b)=ac$, $\sigma(c)=a$. The prefix of $\mathbb{T}$ of length $n$ is denoted by $\mathbb{T}[1,n]$. The main result is threefold, we give: (1)…
Pilz's conjecture states that for any finite set $A=\{a_1,a_2,\dots,a_k\}$ of positive integers and positive integer $n$ in the union of the sets $\{a_1,2a_1,\dots,na_1\},\dots, \{a_k,2a_k,\dots,na_k\}$ (considered as a multiset) at least…
