In a recent paper by Harada, Seceleanu, and \c{S}ega, the Hilbert function, betti table, and graded minimal free resolution of a general principal symmetric ideal are determined when the number of variables in the polynomial ring is…
In this note we compare the a-invariant of a homogeneous algebra B to the a-invariant of a subalgebra A. In particular we show that if $A \subset B$ is a finite homogeneous inclusion of standard graded domains over an algebraically closed…
We investigate the computability of algebraic closure and definable closure with respect to a collection of formulas. We show that for a computable collection of formulas of quantifier rank at most $n$, in any given computable structure,…
The abc conjecture, one of the most famous open problems in number theory, claims that three positive integers satisfying a+b=c cannot simultaneously have significant repetition among their prime factors; in particular, the product of the…
We investigate the problem of finding integers $k$ such that appending any number of copies of the base-ten digit $d$ to $k$ yields a composite number. In particular, we prove that there exist infinitely many integers coprime to all digits…
We prove the following propositions. Theorem 1: Let $M$ be a subfield of a fixed algebraic closure $\tilde \Q$ of $\Q$ whose existential elementary theory is decidable (resp. primitively decidable). Then, M is conjugate to a recursive…
For an arbitrary finite dimensional algebra $\Lambda$, we prove that any wide subcategory of $\mathsf{mod} \Lambda$ satisfying a certain finiteness condition is $\theta$-semistable for some stability condition $\theta$. More generally, we…
We developed computer algebra tools for enumerating conjugacy classes of independent subsets and generating sets of symmetric groups up to $n=7$, and carried out an initial analysis of the obtained results.
This paper studies mixed multiplicities of an arbitrary standard bigraded algebra and mixed multiplicities of two ideals I, J in a local ring (A,m), where I is an m-primary ideal and J an arbitrary ideal. The main results are criteria for…
Let $A$ be a nonempty finite set of $k$ integers. Given a subset $B$ of $A$, the sum of all elements of $B$, denoted by $s(B)$, is called the subset sum of $B$. For a nonnegative integer $\alpha$ ($\leq k$), let \[\Sigma_{\alpha}…
Zaremba's conjecture (1971) states that every positive integer number can be represented as a denominator (continuant) of a finit continued fraction with all partial quotients being bounded by an absolute constant A. Recently (in 2011)…
We characterize completey (give a necessary and suffcient condition using special neat embeddings)for a relation algebra to belong to the amalgamation, strong amalgamation, and superamalgamation base of the class of representable algebras.…
For an integer $b\geq 2$, a positive integer is called a $b$-Niven number if it is a multiple of the sum of the digits in its base-$b$ representation. In this article, we show that every arithmetic progression contains infinitely many…
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…
We present and study new definitions of universal and programmable universal unary functions and consider a new simplicity criterion: almost decidability of the halting set. A set of positive integers S is almost decidable if there exists a…
We propound the thesis that there is a limitation to the number of possible structures which are axiomatically endowed with identities involving operations. In the case of algebras with a binary operation satisfying a formally reducible (to…
Denote the set of algebraic numbers as $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$ and the set of algebraic integers as $\overline{\mathbb{Z}}$. For $\gamma\in\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$, consider its irreducible polynomial in $\mathbb{Z}[x]$,…
We construct an explicit filtration of the ring of algebraic power series by finite dimensional constructible sets, measuring the complexity of these series. As an application, we give a bound on the dimension of the set of algebraic power…
