Recently, Z. W. Sun put forward a series of conjectures on monotonicity of combinatorial sequences in the form of $\{z_n/z_{n-1}\}_{n=N}^\infty$ and $\{\sqrt[n+1]{z_{n+1}}/\sqrt[n]{z_n}\}_{n=N}^\infty$ for some positive integer $N$, where…
This is a complement to our paper arXiv:0802.1461. We study irreducibility of spectral determinants of some one-parametric eigenvalue problems in dimension one with polynomial potentials.
Here we prove some conjectures on the monotony of combinatorial sequences from the recent preprint of Zhi--Wei Sun.
Eigenvectors of tensors, as studied recently in numerical multilinear algebra, correspond to fixed points of self-maps of a projective space. We determine the number of eigenvectors and eigenvalues of a generic tensor, and we show that the…
A determinant evaluation is proven, a special case of which establishes a conjecture of Bombieri, Hunt, and van der Poorten (Experimental Math\. {\bf 4} (1995), 87--96) that arose in the study of Thue's method of approximating algebraic…
Recently Z.W.Sun found over hundred conjectured formulas for 1/pi. Many of them were proved by H.H.Chan, J.Wan andW.Zudilin (see [3], [8] in the paper). Here we show that several other formulas in [6] are simple transformations of known…
In his study of Ramanujan-Sato type series for $1/\pi$, Sun introduced a sequence of polynomials $S_n(q)$ as given by $$S_n(q)=\sum\limits_{k=0}^n{n\choose k}{2k\choose k}{2(n-k)\choose n-k}q^k,$$ and he conjectured that the polynomials…
We prove a conjecture of Dekimpe, De Rock and Penninckx concerning the existence of eigenvalues one in certain elements of finite groups acting irreducibly on a real vector space of odd dimension. This yields a sufficient condition for a…

Recently, Z. W. Sun introduced a new kind of numbers $S_n$ and also posed a conjecture on ratio monotonicity of combinatorial sequences related to $S_n$. In this paper, by investigating some arithmetic properties of $S_n$, we give an…
The purpose of this note is to explain that the combinatorial local log-concavity conjecture introduced by Gross, Mansour, Tucker and Wang (Eur. J. Comb. 52, 207-222, 2016) in fact follows from a result of Stanley (Eur. J. Comb. 32 (6),…
In this paper we confirm three conjectures of Z.-W. Sun on determinants. We first show that any odd integer $n>3$ divides the determinant $$\left|(i^2+dj^2)\left(\frac{i^2+dj^2}n\right)\right|_{0\le i,j\le (n-1)/2},$$ where $d$ is any…
A new $Z$-eigenvalue inclusion theorem for tensors is given and proved to be tighter than those in [G. Wang, G.L. Zhou, L. Caccetta, $Z$-eigenvalue inclusion theorems for tensors, Discrete and Continuous Dynamical Systems Series B,22(1)…
Given a set $A$ of real numbers consider the complete graph on the elements of $A$. We prove that if $A$ is an arithmetic progression then for every vertex $a\in A$ there exists an hamiltonian path such that the absolute differences of…
We give a generalization and a short mechanized proof of determinant conjectured by G. Kuperberg and J. Propp. Further generalizations and applications of the method to some q-analogues may be found in http://www.math.temple.edu/~tewodros
The Riemann Hypothesis can be reformulated as statements about the eigenvalues of certain matrices whose entries are defined in terms of the Taylor coefficients of the zeta function. These eigenvalues exhibit interesting visual patterns…
Recently, the author and Yamamoto invented a new proof of the duality for multiple zeta values. The technique is applicable in other series identities. In this article, we exhibit such proofs for some series identities.
We introduce $\hat{H}$-eigenvalue for $2m$-th order $n$-dimensional complex tensors. Then we determine several checkable inclusion sets for $\hat{H}$-eigenvalues and derive some criterions for the Hermitian positive definiteness…
The eigenvector-eigenvalue identities are expanded to include general mixing parameters. Some simple relations are obtained and they reveal an intricate texture of connections between the eigenvalues and the mixing parameters. Permutation…
Some applications of a result, which is proved recently, is considered. We first prove three determinantal identities concerning the binomial coefficient and Stirling numbers of the first and the second kind. We also easily obtain the…
