We characterize sequences of numbers $(a_n)$ such that $\sum_{n\geq 1} a_n\Phi_n$ converges a.e. for any orthonormal system $(\Phi_n)$ in any $L_2$-space. In our criterion, we use the set $B =\{\sum_{m\geq n} |a_m|^2; n\geq 1\}$ and its…
A tight map is a map with some of its vertices marked, such that every vertex of degree $1$ is marked. We give an explicit formula for the number $N_{0,n}(d_1,\ldots,d_n)$ of planar tight maps with $n$ labeled faces of prescribed degrees…
We investigate the existence of representations of every large positive integer as a sum of $k$-th powers of integers represented as certain diagonal forms. In particular, we consider a family of diagonal forms and discuss the problem of…
We show conditions on $k$ such that any number $x$ in the interval $[0, k/2]$ can be represented in the form $x_1^{a_1} x_2^{a_2} + x_3^{a_3} x_4^{a_4} + \cdots + x_{k-1}^{a_{k-1}} x_k^{a_k}$, where the exponents $a_{2i-1}$ and $a_{2i}$ are…
In a classical case, orthogonal polynomial sequences are in such a way that the $ n $th polynomial has the exact degree $n$. Such sequences are complete and form a basis of the space for any arbitrary polynomial. In this paper, we introduce…
A polyiamond is a polygon composed of unit equilateral triangles, and a generalized deltahedron is a convex polyhedron whose every face is a convex polyiamond. We study a variant where one face may be an exception. For a convex polygon P,…
In this paper, it is proved that every sufficiently large even integer can be represented as the sum of two squares of primes, two cubes of primes, two biquadrates of primes and 16 powers of 2. Furthermore, there are at least 5.313% odd…
There is a generalized oscillator algebra associated with every class of orthogonal polynomials $\{\Psi_n(x)\}_{n=0}^{\infty}$, on the real line, satisfying a three term recurrence relation $x\Psi_n(x)=b_n\Psi_{n+1}(x)+b_{n-1}\Psi_{n-1}(x),…
We study here weighted polynomial multiple ergodic averages. A sequence of weights is called universally good if any polynomial multiple ergodic average with this sequence of weights converges in $L^{2}$. We find a necessary condition and…
The aim of this article is to show the existence, and also give an explicit construction, of infinite sets of orthogonal exponentials for certain families of convex polytopes which include simple-rational polytopes and also non simple…
In 2016, while studying restricted sums of integral squares, Sun posed the following conjecture: Every positive integer $n$ can be written as $x^2+y^2+z^2+w^2$ $(x,y,z,w\in\mathbb{N}=\{0,1,\cdots\})$ with $x+3y$ a square. Meanwhile, he also…
A positive square-free integer is called a \textit{congruent number} if it arises as the area of a right triangle with rational side lengths. Let $ n = p_1p_2 \cdots p_t q $ be a square-free integer, where each $ p_i \equiv 1 \pmod{8} $ and…
Recently the author used certain quaternion orders to demonstrate the universality of some quaternary quadratic forms. Here a further study is done on one of these orders analogous to Hurwitz's proof of the formula for the number of…
For any orthogonal polynomials system on real line we construct an appropriate oscillator algebra such that the polynomials make up the eigenfunctions system of the oscillator hamiltonian. The general scheme is divided into two types: a…
It is proved that all sufficiently large integers $n$ can be represented as $$n=x_1^2+x_2^3+\cdots+x_{13}^{14},$$ where $x_1,\ldots,x_{13}$ are positive integers. This improves upon the current record with $14$ variables in place of $13$.
A perfect number is a positive integer $N$ such that the sum of all the positive divisors of $N$ equals $2N$, denoted by $\sigma(N) = 2N$. The question of the existence of odd perfect numbers (OPNs) is one of the longest unsolved problems…
In this paper, we find formulas for the number of representations of certain diagonal octonary quadratic forms with coefficients $1,2,3,4$ and $6$. We obtain these formulas by constructing explicit bases of the space of modular forms of…
In various application fields, tensor type data are used recently and then a typical rank is important. Although there may be more than one typical ranks over the real number field, a generic rank over the complex number field is the…
For an integer $k\ge2$, a tuple of $k$ positive integers $(M_i)_{i=1}^{k}$ is called an amicable $k$-tuple if the equation \[ \sigma(M_1)=\cdots=\sigma(M_k)=M_1+\cdots+M_k \] holds. This is a generalization of amicable pairs. An amicable…
In this paper, we prove that for $d=3,\dots,8$, every natural number can be written as $t_x+t_y+3t_z+dt_w$, where $x$, $y$, $z$, and $w$ are nonnegative integers and $t_k=k(k+1)/2$ $(k=0,1,2,\ldots)$ is a triangular number. Furthermore, we…
