The classical Farey sequence of height $Q$ is the set of rational numbers in reduced form with denominator less than $Q$. In this paper we introduce the concept of a generalized Farey sequence. While these sequences arise naturally in the…

For any positive integers $q$, $n$, $m$ with $q$ being a prime power and $n \geq 5$, we establish a condition sufficient to ensure the existence of a primitive normal pair $(\epsilon,f(\epsilon))$ in $\mathbb{F}_{q^{n}}$ over…

In this paper we investigate the Galois conjugates of a Pisot number $q \in (m, m+1)$, $m \geq 1$. In particular, we conjecture that for $q \in (1,2)$ we have $|q'| \geq \frac{\sqrt{5}-1}{2}$ for all conjugates $q'$ of $q$. Further, for $m…

We estimate the deviation of the number of solutions of the congruence $$ m^2-n^2 \equiv c \pmod q, \qquad 1 \le m \le M, \ 1\le n \le N, $$ from its expected value on average over $c=1, ..., q$. This estimate is motivated by the recently…

Let $(q_{\alpha, n})_{n \geq 0}$ be the sequence of convergent denominators to the simple continued fraction expansion of $\alpha$. For certain specific choices of $\alpha$, this sequence is a Lehmer sequence. In this paper, we show that…

We introduce a notion of $q$-deformed rational numbers and $q$-deformed continued fractions. A $q$-deformed rational is encoded by a triangulation of a polygon and can be computed recursively. The recursive formula is analogous to the…

Correlation factors are constructed that are consistent with the permutation symmetry group of N Fermions at given value of the filling factor.

We give an asymptotic formula for correlations \[ \sum_{n\le x}f_1(P_1(n))f_2(P_2(n))\cdot \dots \cdot f_m(P_m(n))\] where $f\dots,f_m$ are bounded "pretentious" multiplicative functions, under certain natural hypotheses. We then deduce…

Given positive integers $q,n,m$ and $a\in\mathbb{F}_{q}$, where $q$ is an odd prime power and $n\geq 5$, we investigate the existence of a primitive normal pair $(\epsilon,f(\epsilon))$ in $\mathbb{F}_{q^{n}}$ over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ such…

In this article we will derive a combinatorial formula for the partition function p(n). In the second part of the paper we will establish connection between partitions and q-binomial coefficients and give new interpretation for q-binomial…

We prove that, for all positive integers $n_1, \ldots, n_m$, $n_{m+1}=n_1$, and non-negative integers $j$ and $r$ with $j\leqslant m$, the following two expressions \begin{align*} &\frac{1}{[n_1+n_m+1]}{n_1+n_{m}\brack…

In this paper, we clarified the relationship between continued fractions, determinants, and identities, making it easier to apply these methods systematically in other settings. In particular, we studied finite continued fractions from the…

We consider two classes of $q$-continued fraction whose odd and even parts are limit 1-periodic for $|q|>1$, and give theorems which guarantee the convergence of the continued fraction, or of its odd- and even parts, at points outside the…

Let $q$ be a positive integral power of some prime $p$ and $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}$ be a finite field with $q^m$ elements for some $m \in \mathbb{N}$. Here we establish a sufficient condition for the existence of primitive normal pairs of the…

Given a power $q$ of a prime number $p$ and "nice" polynomials $f_1,...,f_r\in\bbF_q[T,X]$ with $r=1$ if $p=2$, we establish an asymptotic formula for the number of pairs $(a_1,a_2)\in\bbF_q^2$ such that…

Let $M_{d,n}(q)$ denote the number of monic irreducible polynomials in $\mathbb{F}_q[x_1, x_2, \ldots , x_n]$ of degree $d$. We show that for a fixed degree $d$, the sequence $M_{d,n}(q)$ converges $q$-adically to an explicitly determined…

The main objective of the present paper is to introduce and study the function $_pR_q(A, B; z)$ with matrix parameters and investigate the convergence of this matrix function. The contiguous matrix function relations, differential formulas…

The $q$-analogue of the binomial coefficient, known as a $q$-binomial coefficient, is typically denoted $\left[{n \atop k}\right]_q$. These polynomials are important combinatorial objects, often appearing in generating functions related to…

Following T. H. Chan, we consider the problem of approximation of a given rational fraction a/q by sums of several rational fractions a_1/q_1, ..., a_n/q_n with smaller denominators. We show that in the special cases of n=3 and n=4 and…

We show that, for all positive integers $n_1, \ldots, n_m$, $n_{m+1}=n_1$, and any non-negative integers $j$ and $r$ with $j\leqslant m$, the expression $$ \frac{1}{[n_1]}{n_1+n_{m}\brack n_1}^{-1}…
