The classical Stern sequence of positive integers was extended to a polynomial sequence $S_n(\lambda)$ by Klav\v{z}ar et. al. by defining $S_0(\lambda) = 0$, $S_1(\lambda) = 1$, and $$S_{2n}(\lambda) = \lambda S_n(\lambda),\quad…

We address the question of the asymptotic description of random tensors that are local-unitary invariant, that is, invariant by conjugation by tensor products of independent unitary matrices. We consider both the mixed case of a tensor with…

We consider a sequence $(p_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ of polynomials with uniformly bounded zeros and $\deg p_1\geq 1$, $\deg p_n\geq 2$ for $n\geq 2$, satisfying certain asymptotic conditions. We prove that the function sequence $\left(\frac{1}{\deg…

We consider sets and maps defined over an o-minimal structure over the reals, such as real semi-algebraic or subanalytic sets. A {\em monotone map} is a multi-dimensional generalization of a usual univariate monotone function, while the…

In this paper, we study the analogous Erd\H{o}s similarity conjecture in higher dimensions and generalize the Eigen-Falconer theorem. We show that if $A=\{\boldsymbol{x}_n\}_{n=1}^\infty \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ is a sequence of non-zero…

Let A be a subset of an abelian group G. We say that A is sum-free if there do not exist x,y and z in A satisfying x + y = z. We determine, for any G, the cardinality of the largest sum-free subset of G. This equals c(G)|G| where c(G) is a…

The set of associative and commutative hypercomplex numbers, called the perfect hypercomplex algebra (PHA) is investigated. Necessary and sufficient conditions for an algebra to be a PHA via semi-tensor product(STP) of matrices are…

Let $X$ be a non-singular algebraic curve of genus $g$. We prove that the Brill-Noether locus $\bns $ is non-empty if $d= nd' +d'' $ with $0< d'' <2n$, $1\le s\le g$, $d'\geq (s-1)(s+g)/s $, $n\leq d''+(n-k)g$, $(d'',k)\ne(n,n)$. These…

We study a parametric class of isotropic but not necessarily stationary Poisson hyperplane tessellations in n-dimensional Euclidean space. Our focus is on the volume of the zero cell, i.e. the cell containing the origin. As a main result,…

Let $\mathbb Z_n$ be the cyclic group of order $n \ge 3$ additively written. S. Savchev \& F. Chen (2007) proved that for each zero-sum free sequence $S = a_1 \bullet \dots \bullet a_t$ over $\mathbb Z_n$ of length $t > n/2$, there is an…

Let $\chi$ be a primitive character modulo a prime $q$, and let $\delta > 0$. It has previously been observed that if $\chi$ has large order $d \geq d_0(\delta)$ then $\chi(n) \neq 1$ for some $n \leq q^{\delta}$, in analogy with…

The resonance arrangement $\mathcal{A}_n$ is the arrangement of hyperplanes which has all non-zero $0/1$-vectors in $\mathbb{R}^n$ as normal vectors. It is the adjoint of the Braid arrangement and is also called the all-subsets arrangement.…

In this article, we prove the strong monodromy conjecture for complex hyperplane arrangements by proving a conjecture of Budur, Musta\c t\u a and Teitler that $-n/d$ is a root of the $b$-function of an irreducible essential and central…

We study a linear form in the values of Euler's series $F(t)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty n!t^n$ at algebraic integer points $\alpha_1, \ldots, \alpha_m \in \mathbb{Z}_{\mathbb{K}}$ belonging to a number field $\mathbb{K}$. Let $v|p$ be a…

Generalising Solomon's theorem, C. Gordon and F. Rodriguez-Villegas have proven recently that, in any group, the number of solutions to a system of coefficient-free equations is divisible by the order of this group whenever the rank of the…

For a set $A$ of positive integers with $\gcd(A)=1$, let $\langle A \rangle$ denote the set of all finite linear combinations of elements of $A$ over the non-negative integers. Then it is well known that only finitely many positive integers…

Let $Z$ be the typical cell of a stationary Poisson hyperplane tessellation in $\mathbb{R}^d$. The distribution of the number of facets $f(Z)$ of the typical cell is investigated. It is shown, that under a well-spread condition on the…

A subset $D$ of an Abelian group is $decomposable$ if $\emptyset\ne D\subset D+D$. In the paper we give partial answer to an open problem asking whether every finite decomposable subset $D$ of an Abelian group contains a non-empty subset…

Let $X_1,X_2$ be independent random walks on $\mathbf{Z}_n^d$, $d\geq3$, each starting from the uniform distribution. Initially, each site of $\mathbf{Z}_n^d$ is unmarked, and, whenever $X_i$ visits such a site, it is set irreversibly to…

Let $a,b,c,d,e,f\in\mathbb N$ with $a\ge c\ge e>0$, $b\le a$ and $b\equiv a\pmod2$, $d\le c$ and $d\equiv c\pmod2$, $f\le e$ and $f\equiv e\pmod2$. If any nonnegative integer can be written as $x(ax+b)/2+y(cy+d)/2+z(ez+f)/2$ with…
