This article considers the minimal non-zero (= indecomposable) solutions of the linear congruence $1\cdot x_1 + \cdots + (m-1)\cdot x_{m-1} \equiv 0 \pmod m$ for unknown non-negative integers $x_1, \ldots, x_n$, and characterizes the…

We investigate the time-asymptotic properties of solutions of the differential equation x''(t) + a(t)x'(t) + g(x(t)) = 0 in a Hilbert space, where a(.) is non-increasing and g is the gradient of a potential G. If the coefficient a(.) is…

We present a closed-form solution for n-th term of a general three-term recurrence relation with arbitrary given n-dependent coefficients. The derivation and corresponding proof are based on two approaches, which we develop and describe in…

We say that the order of an algebraic number $A$ is the minimum of positive integers $k$ such that $A^k$ is rational. In this paper, we show that the number of algebraic numbers $A$ with order $k$ such that \[ A,\ A^A,\ A^{A^A},\ \ldots \]…

Let $(a_n), (b_n)$ be linear recursive sequences of integers with characteristic polynomials $A(X),B(X)\in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ respectively. Assume that $A(X)$ has a dominating and simple real root $\alpha$, while $B(X)$ has a pair of conjugate…
