A graph is called integral if all eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix consist entirely of integers. Recently, Csikvari proved the existence of integral trees of any even diameter. In the odd case, integral trees have been constructed with…
The aim of this note is to show that any even perfect number, other than $6$, can be written as the sum of 5 cubes of natural numbers. We also conjecture that any even perfect number, other than $6$, can be written as the sum of only 3…
The existence question for tiling of the $n$-dimensional Euclidian space by crosses is well known. A few existence and nonexistence results are known in the literature. Of special interest are tilings of the Euclidian space by crosses with…
We investigate a connection between two important classes of Euclidean lattices: well-rounded and ideal lattices. A lattice of full rank in a Euclidean space is called well-rounded if its set of minimal vectors spans the whole space. We…
Lie algebroids can not always be integrated into Lie groupoids. We introduce a new object--``Weinstein groupoid'', which is a differentiable stack with groupoid-like axioms. With it, we have solved the integration problem of Lie algebroids.…
We explicitly construct a collection of bad 3-orbifolds, \(\mathcal{X}\), satisfying the following properties: \begin{enumerate} \item The underlying topological space of any \(X \in \mathcal{X}\) is homeomorphic to $S^2\times I$ or…
We prove that the Steinberg module of the special linear group of a quadratic imaginary number ring which is not Euclidean is not generated by integral apartments. Assuming the generalized Riemann hypothesis, this shows that the Steinberg…
The {\em Fibonacci cube} of dimension $n$, denoted as $\Gamma\_n$, is the subgraph of the $n$-cube $Q\_n$ induced by vertices with no consecutive 1's. In an article of 2016 Ashrafi and his co-authors proved the non-existence of perfect…
We present a unified construction of perfectoid towers from specific prisms which covers all the previous constructions of (p-torsion-free) perfectoid towers. By virtue of the construction, perfectoid towers can be systematically…
A perfect cuboid is a rectangular parallelepiped whose edges, whose face diagonals, and whose space diagonal are of integer lengths. The second cuboid conjecture specifies a subclass of perfect cuboids described by one Diophantine equation…
Fix a quadratic order over the ring of integers. An embedding of the quadratic order into a quaternionic order naturally gives an integral binary hermitian form over the quadratic order. We show that, in certain cases, this correspondence…
There are parallelepipeds with edge lengths, face diagonal lengths and body diagonal lengths all positive integers. In particular, there is a parallelepiped with edge lengths 271, 106, 103, minor face diagonal lengths 101, 266, 255, major…
Euler showed that if an odd perfect number $N$ exists, it must consist of two parts $N=q^k n^2$, with $q$ prime, $q \equiv k \equiv 1 \pmod{4}$, and gcd$(q,n)=1$. Dris conjectured that $q^k < n$. We first show that $q<n$ for all odd perfect…
It is possible to have a packing by translates of a cube that is maximal (i.e.\ no other cube can be added without overlapping) but does not form a tiling. In the long running analogy of packing and tiling to orthogonality and completeness…
For a restricted Lie algebra $L$, the conditions under which its restricted enveloping algebra $u(L)$ is semiperfect are investigated. Moreover, it is proved that $u(L)$ is left (or right) perfect if and only if $L$ is finite-dimensional.
Keller's conjecture on cube tilings asserted that, in any tiling of $\mathbb{R}^d$ by unit cubes, there must exist two cubes that share a $(d-1)$-dimensional face. This is now known to be true in dimensions $d\leq 7$ and false for $d\geq…
A (positive definite and integral) quadratic form is said to be $\textit{prime-universal}$ if it represents all primes. Recently, Doyle and Williams in [2] classified all prime-universal diagonal ternary quadratic forms, and all…
A rational face cuboid is a cuboid that all of edges, two of three face diagonals and space diagonal have rational lengths. \[ E_{1,s}: y^2=x(x-(2s)^2)(x+(s^2-1)^2) \] for a rational number $s \neq 0, \pm 1$, and define $\tilde{A}$…
In this paper, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of Ulrich bundles on cubic fourfold $X$ of given rank $r$. As consequences, we show that for every integer $r\ge 2$ there exists a family of indecomposable rank…
It is shown that there exist infinitely many triangular numbers (congruent to 3 mod 12) which cannot be the distance between two perfect numbers.
