Euler states without proof statements about the form of prime divisors of numbers of the form aa+Nbb. See Ed Sandifer's How Euler Did It, ``Factors of Forms'', December 2005 at http://www.maa.org/news/howeulerdidit.html for a summary of the…
A historical review of the problem of incompleteness in Mathematics since the 20th century is made. The Combinatorial Principle of Paris-Harrington is studied and the way in which it can be codified in the language of Arithmetic.
The recent theory of fractional $h$-difference equations introduced in [N. R. O. Bastos, R. A. C. Ferreira, D. F. M. Torres: Discrete-time fractional variational problems, Signal Process. 91 (2011), no. 3, 513--524], is enriched with useful…
A number of research articles have established the significant role of lattice-ordered groups (l-groups) in logic. The purpose of the present article is to lay the groundwork for, and provide significant initial contributions to, the…
A filtered Lie splitting scheme is proposed for the time integration of the cubic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation on the two-dimensional torus $\mathbb{T}^2$. The scheme is analyzed in a framework of discrete Bourgain spaces, which allows…
Past approaches for statistical shape analysis of objects have focused mainly on objects within the same topological classes, e.g., scalar functions, Euclidean curves, or surfaces, etc. For objects that differ in more complex ways, the…
The paper contains integral representations for certain classes of exponentially growing solutions of second order periodic elliptic equations. These representations are the analogs of those previously obtained by S. Agmon, S. Helgason, and…
In 2017, this author proposed, as a resolution of the Measurement Problem, that terms be added to Schrodinger's wavefunction equation, rendering it nonlinear. Said equation derived from a trick employed by S. Weinberg in 1989 which may be…
A Lagrange Theorem in dimension 2 is proved, for a particular two-dimensional algorithm, with a very natural geometrical definition. Dirichlet-type properties for the convergence of the algorithm are also proved. These properties procced…
This introduction to arithmetic coding is divided in two parts. The first explains how and why arithmetic coding works. We start presenting it in very general terms, so that its simplicity is not lost under layers of implementation details.…
This manuscript was published as a JINR Preprint E17-10550 in 1977. In view of the recent interest in various new kinds of statistics it seems the results it contains may be still of some interest. It is shown that the second quantization…
This paper is a continuation of [13], where new variational principles were introduced based on the concept of anti-selfdual (ASD) Lagrangians. We continue here the program of using these Lagrangians to provide variational formulations and…
Searching for a Lagrangian may seem either a trivial endeavour or an impossible task. In this paper we show that the Jacobi last multiplier associated with the Lie symmetries admitted by simple models of classical mechanics produces (too?)…
In this note we will present how Euler's investigations on various different subjects lead to certain properties of the Legendre polynomials. More precisely, we will show that the generating function and the difference equation for the…
This paper presents fundamental algorithms for the computational theory of quadratic forms over number fields. In the first part of the paper, we present algorithms for checking if a given non-degenerate quadratic form over a fixed number…
In their 2002 paper, Ciucu and Krattenthaler proved several product formulas for the number of lozenge tilings of various regions obtained from a centrally symmetric hexagon on the triangular lattice by removing maximal staircase regions…
The purpose of this article is to present, in a simple way, an analytic approach to special numbers and polynomials. The approach is based on the derivative polynomials. The paper is, to some extent, a review article, although it contains…
This is a translation of Euler's Latin paper "De fractionibus continuis observationes" into English. In this paper Euler describes his theory of continued fractions. He teaches, how to transform series into continued fractions, solves the…
This monograph provides an overview on the Maurer-Cartan methods in algebra, geometry, topology, and mathematical physics. It offers a conceptual, exhaustive and gentle treatment of the twisting procedure, which functorially creates new…
We investigate the quantum mechanics of the doubled torus system, introduced by Hull [1] to describe T-folds in a more geometric way. Classically, this system consists of a world-sheet Lagrangian together with some constraints, which reduce…
