For a fixed integer $k \ge 0$, consider representations of positive integers as sums of binomial coefficients of the form $\binom{n}{k}$. While exact minimal bounds for the number of required summands are known only in a few low-dimensional…

To each non totally real cubic extension $K$ of $\Q$ and to each generator $\alpha$ of the cubic field $K$, we attach a family of cubic Thue equations, indexed by the units of $K$, and we prove that this family of cubic Thue equations has…

Let $b \ge 2$ and $\ell \ge 1$ be integers. We establish that there is an absolute real number $K$ such that all the partial quotients of the rational number $$ \prod_{h = 0}^\ell \, (1 - b^{-2^h}), $$ of denominator $b^{2^{\ell+1} - 1}$,…

Take any $d + 3$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$. It is known that (a) if $d = 2k + 1$, then there are two linked $(k + 1)$-simplices with the vertices at these points; (b) if $d = 2k$, then there are two disjoint $(k + 1)$-tuples of these points…

Let $d>k$ be positive integers. Motivated by an earlier result of Bugeaud and Nguyen, we let $E_{k,d}$ be the set of $(c_1,\ldots,c_k)\in\mathbb{R}_{\geq 0}^k$ such that…

Suppose $k,x,$ and $b$ are positive integers, and $a$ is a nonnegative integer such that $k=a+b$. In this paper, we will prove $\binom{2k}{k} = \binom{2a}{a} \binom{x+2b}{b}$ if and only if $x=a=1$. We do this by looking at different cases…

We present a method to compute high-order derivatives of the total energy which can be used in the framework of density functional theory. We provide a proof of the $2n+1$ theorem for a general class of energy functionals in which the…

We study the number of $s$-element subsets $J$ of a given abelian group $G$, such that $|J+J|\leq K|J|$. Proving a conjecture of Alon, Balogh, Morris and Samotij, and improving a result of Green and Morris, who proved the conjecture for $K$…

The rigorous QED approach is employed to calculate the energies of the $2p2p\,^3P_{0,1,2}$, $2p2p\,^1D_2$, and $2p2p\,^1S_0$ states of selected Be-like highly charged ions over a wide range of nuclear-charge numbers, $18 \leqslant Z…

Let G be a simple graph of order $n$ and $\mu_1,\mu_2,\ldots,\mu_n$ the roots of its matching polynomial. The matching energy of $G$ is defined as the sum $\sum_{i=1}^n|\mu_i|$. Let $K_{n-1,1}^k$ be the graph obtained from $K_1\cup K_{n-1}$…

We use angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) to investigate the properties of the energy gap(s) in optimally doped (Bi,Pb)2(Sr,La)2CuO6+d (Bi2201). We find that the spectral gap has two components in the superconducting state: a…

In this paper we study some sophisticated supercongruences involving dual sequences. For $n=0,1,2,\ldots$ define $$d_n(x)=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom nk\binom xk2^k$$ and $$s_n(x)=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom nk\binom xk\binom{x+k}k=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom…

An observation by J-P. Serre implies that cubic polynomials are unique among generic monic polynomials of degree 2 or higher in that they have a root that is a power series in the discriminant of the polynomial. We provide formulas for this…

Mader proved that every strongly $k$-connected $n$-vertex digraph contains a strongly $k$-connected spanning subgraph with at most $2kn - 2k^2$ edges, where the equality holds for the complete bipartite digraph ${DK}_{k,n-k}$. For dense…

Motivated by the linear time algorithm that locates the eigenvalues of a cograph G [10], we investigate the multiplicity of eigenvalue for \lambda \neq -1,0. For cographs with balanced cotrees we determine explicitly the highest value for…

For integers $2 \leq t \leq k$, we consider a collection of $k$ set families $\mathcal{A}_j: 1 \leq j \leq k$ where $\mathcal{A}_j = \{ A_{j,i} \subseteq [n] : 1 \leq i \leq m \}$ and $|A_{1, i_1} \cap \cdots \cap A_{k,i_k}|$ is even if and…

The augmented cube $AQ_n$, proposed by Choudum and Sunitha [S. A. Choudum, V. Sunitha, Augmented cubes, Networks 40 (2) (2002) 71-84], is a $(2n-1)$-regular $(2n-1)$-connected graph $(n\ge 4)$. This paper determines that the 2-extra…

The energy of a graph is defined as the sum of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of the graph. In this paper, we present a new method to compare the energies of two $k$-subdivision bipartite graphs on some cut edges. As the…

Let $K\geq 2$ be a natural number and $a_i,b_i\in\mathbb{Z}$ for $i=1,\ldots,K-1$. We use the large sieve to derive explicit upper bounds for the number of prime $k$-tuplets, i.e., for the number of primes $p\leq x$ for which all $a_ip+b_i$…

We prove an extension of Bourgain's theorem on pinned distances in measurable subset of $\mathbb{R}^2$ of positive upper density, namely Theorem $1^\prime$ in [Bourgain, 1986], to pinned non-degenerate $k$-dimensional simplices in…
