Let $S_b(n)$ denote the sum of the squares of the digits of the positive integer $n$ in base $b\geq2$. It is well-known that the sequence of iterates of $S_b(n)$ terminates in a fixed point or enters a cycle. Let $N=2n-1$, $n\geq2$. It is…

Let $\mathbf{f} = (f_1, \ldots, f_R)$ be a system of polynomials with integer coefficients in which the degrees need not all be the same. We provide sufficient conditions for which the system of equations $f_j (x_1, \ldots, x_n) = 0 \ (1…

We study the fixed points of the Berezin transform on the Fock-type spaces $F_m^2$ with the weight $e^{-|z|^m}, m > 0.$ It is known that the Berezin transform is well-defined on the polynomials in $z$ and $\overline{z}$. In this paper we…

Let $G$ be a simple graph of order $n$. A dominating set of $G$ is a set $S$ of vertices of $G$ so that every vertex of $G$ is either in $S$ or adjacent to a vertex in $S$. The domination polynomial of $G$ is the polynomial…

Let $D$ be an integral domain with quotient field $K$ and $\Omega$ a finite subset of $D$. McQuillan proved that the ring ${\rm Int}(\Omega,D)$ of polynomials in $K[X]$ which are integer-valued over $\Omega$, that is, $f\in K[X]$ such that…

We prove that if a continuous piecewise-smooth map on $\mathbb{R}^n$ is comprised of two linear functions, has a bounded orbit, and satisfies a certain non-degeneracy condition, then it has a fixed point. The result has important…

We prove the following statement. Let $f\in\mathbb{R}[x_1,\ldots,x_d]$, for some $d\ge 3$, and assume that $f$ depends non-trivially in each of $x_1,\ldots,x_d$. Then one of the following holds. (i) For every finite sets…
