In this paper, we study the properties of Carmichael numbers, false positives to several primality tests. We provide a classification for Carmichael numbers with a proportion of Fermat witnesses of less than 50%, based on if the smallest…
We describe an explicit generalized Lucasian test to determine the primality of numbers $h\cdot2^n\pm1$ when $h\nequiv0\pmod{17}$. This test is by means of fixed seeds which depend only on $h$. In particular when $h=16^m-1$ with $m$ odd,…
We study multivariate polynomials over `structured' grids. We begin by proposing an interpretation as to what it means for a finite subset of a field to be structured; we do so by means of a numerical parameter, the nullity. We then extend…
We give Deterministic Primality tests for large families of numbers. These tests were inspired in the recent and celebrated Agrawal-Kayal-Saxena (AKS) test. The AKS test has proved polynomial complexity O ((log n)^12) and they expect it to…
We investigate the structure of ideals generated by binomials (polynomials with at most two terms) and the schemes and varieties associated to them. The class of binomial ideals contains many classical examples from algebraic geometry, and…
The binomial notation (w u) represents the number of occurrences of the word u as a (scattered) subword in w. We first introduce and study possible uses of a geometrical interpretation of (w ab) and (w ba) when a and b are distinct letters.…
We propose an algorithm determining the primality of numbers $M=Ap^n+w_n$ where $w_n^{p-1}\equiv1\pmod{p^n}$ and $A<p^n$ and give example when $p=7$. $p$ th reciprocity law is involved. The algorithm runs in polynomial time in $\log_2(M)$…
A survey of goodness-of-fit and symmetry tests based on the characterization properties of distributions is presented. This approach became popular in recent years. In most cases the test statistics are functionals of $U$-empirical…
Tests of equality of copulas between two samples are introduced and studied using the empirical Bernstein copula process. Three statistics are proposed and their asymptotic properties are established. Besides, a subsampling Bernstein…

We study a reproducing kernel Hilbert space of functions defined on the positive integers and associated to the binomial coefficients. We introduce two transforms, which allow us to develop a related harmonic analysis in this Hilbert space.…
In this paper one extends the binomial and trinomial coefficients to the concept of 'k-nomial' coefficients, and one obtains some properties of these. As an application one generalizes Pascal's triangle.
The generation of curves and surfaces from given data is a well-known problem in Computer-Aided Design that can be approached using subdivision schemes. They are powerful tools that allow obtaining new data from the initial one by means of…

Much is known about binomial coefficients where primes are concerned, but considerably less is known regarding prime powers and composites. This paper provides two conjectures in these directions, one about counting binomial coefficients…
