This paper studies integer solutions to the ABC equation A+B+C=0 in which none of A, B, C has a large prime factor. Set H(A,B, C)= max(|A|,|B|,|C|) and set the smoothness S(A, B, C) to be the largest prime factor of ABC. We consider…
We introduce a new framework called linear algebraic number theory (LANT) that reformulates the number-theoretic problem as a regression model and solves it using matrix algebra. This framework restricts all computations to log space,…
What is a general expression for the sum of the first n integers, each raised to the mth power, where m is a positive integer? Answering this question will be the aim of the paper....We will take the unorthodox approach of presenting the…
Extension conjecture states that if a simple module over an artin algebra has nonzero first self-extension group then it has nonzero i-th self-extension group for infinitely many positive integers i. It is shown by recollement of…
We prove that the inverse of a positive-definite matrix can be approximated by a weighted-sum of a small number of matrix exponentials. Combining this with a previous result [OSV12], we establish an equivalence between matrix inversion and…
This paper proposes an elementary solution to a special case of finding all perfect squares that can be written as sum of consecutive integer cubes. It is shown that there are no non-trivial solutions if the perfect square is a prime power,…
In this work, we state a general conjecture on the solvability of optimization problems via algorithms with linear convergence guarantees. We make a first step towards examining its correctness by fully characterizing the problems that are…
In this paper, we use a variety of classical and new research methods for ternary exponential Diophantine equations and extensive use of computer calculations to study the conjecture of R. Scott and R. Styer which asserts that for any fixed…
A numeral system is an infinite sequence of different closed normal $\lambda$-terms intended to code the integers in $\lambda$-calculus. H. Barendregt has shown that if we can represent, for a numeral system, the functions : Successor,…
For earlier considered our sequence A166944 in [4] we prove three statements of its connection with twin primes. We also give a sufficient condition for the infinity of twin primes and pose several new conjectures; among them we propose a…
We present a stable and convergent method for solving initial value problems based on the use of differentiation matrices obtained by Lagrange interpolation. This implicit multistep-like method is easy-to-use and performs pretty well in the…
Let $K$ be an infinite field and let $I = (f_1,\cdots,f_r)$ be an ideal in the polynomial ring $R = K[x_1,\cdots,x_n]$ generated by generic forms of degrees $d_1,\cdots,d_r$. A longstanding conjecture by Fr\"{o}berg predicts the shape of…
We fix a gap in our proof of an upper bound for the number of positive integers $n\le x$ for which the Euler function $\varphi(n)$ has all prime factors at most $y$. While doing this we obtain a stronger, likely best-possible result.
All rings are commutative with $1$ and $n$ is a positive integer. Let $\phi: J(R)\to J(R)\cup{\emptyset}$ be a function where $J(R)$ denotes the set of all ideals of $R$. We say that a proper ideal $I$ of $R$ is $\phi$-$n$-absorbing primary…
This note considers reciprocal of primes in binary representation and shows that the conjecture that 0s exceed 1s in most cases continues to hold for primes less one million. The conjecture has also been tested for ternary representation…
We prove the Ribenboim hypothesis, which states that if, starting from some integer $N$, consecutive prime numbers $p_ {n}$, $p_{n+1}$ satisfy the inequality $\sqrt {p_ {n+1}}-\sqrt{p_{n}} <1$, then the Landau problem # 4 (1912) has a…
In 2008, Schmidt and Tuller stated a conjecture concerning optimal packing and covering of integers by translates of a given three-point set. In this note, we confirm their conjecture and relate it to several other problems in…
We show that the equation phi(a)=\sigma(b) has infinitely many solutions, where phi is Euler's totient function and sigma is the sum-of-divisors function. This proves a 50-year old conjecture of Erdos. Moreover, we show that there are…
