In this note, we represent integers in a type of factoradic notation. Rather than use the corresponding Lehmer code, we will view integers as permutations. Given a pair of integers n and k, we give a formula for n mod k in terms of the…

We use a representability theorem of G. L. Watson to examine sums of squares in Quaternion rings with integer coefficients. This allows us to determine a large family of such rings where every element expressible as the sum of squares can…

Let $5 \leq k \leq 11$ and $0\leq i \leq k-1$ be integers. We determine all solutions to the equation \begin{align*} n(n+d)(n+2d)\cdots(n+(i-1)d)(n+(i+1)d) \cdots (n+(k-1)d) = y^3 \end{align*} in integers $n,d,y$ with $ny \neq 0$, $d\geq…

We consider the problem of enumerating integer tetrahedra of fixed perimeter (sum of side-lengths) and/or diameter (maximum side-length), up to congruence. As we will see, this problem is considerably more difficult than the corresponding…

In this paper, we study universal sums of triangular numbers and squares. Specifically, we prove that a sum of triangular numbers and squares is universal if and only if it represents…

In this paper, we devote our interest to solving the real cubic truncated moment problem. We provide some results that allow to get a complete solution via a minimal representing measure. Some numerical examples are also presented to…

In this paper, we consider the problem about finding out perfect powers in an alternating sum of consecutive cubes. More precisely, we completely solve the Diophantine equation $(x+1)^3 - (x+2)^3 + \cdots - (x + 2d)^3 + (x + 2d + 1)^3 =…

We extend results of Jagy and Kaplansky and the present authors and show that for all $k\geq 3$ there are infinitely many positive integers $n$, which cannot be written as $x^2+y^2+z^k=n$ for positive integers $x,y,z$, where for…

Assuming that the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH) holds, we prove an explicit formula for the number of representations of an integer as a sum of $k\geq 5$ primes. Our error terms in such a formula improve by some logarithmic factors…

In this paper we shall investigate the problem of the representation of the number of integral points of an elliptic curve modulo a prime number p. We present a way of expressing an exponential sum which involves polynomials of third…

This paper presents an integer decomposition method. The method first writes an integer as a polynomial with 2 as variable that its coefficients are zero or one. Then, suppose that an integer is decomposed into product of such two…

We present a novel conjecture concerning the additive representation of natural numbers using prime powers. Based on extensive computational verification, we conjecture that every integer n > 23 can be expressed as a sum of at most five…

This paper focuses on greedy expansions, one possible representation of numbers, and on arithmetical operations with them. Performing addition or multiplication some additional digits can appear. We study bounds on the number of such digits…

We show that Euler's relation and the Taxi-Cab relation are both solutions of the same equation. General solutions of sums of two consecutive cubes equaling the sum of two other cubes are calculated. There is an infinite number of relations…

We estimate the number of integer solutions to decomposable form inequalities (both asymptotic estimates and upper bounds are provided) when the degree of the form and the number of variables are relatively prime. These estimates display…

We make several improvements to methods for finding integer solutions to $x^3+y^3+z^3=k$ for small values of $k$. We implemented these improvements on Charity Engine's global compute grid of 500,000 volunteer PCs and found new…

In \cite{ono}, K. Ono, S. Robins and P.T. Wahl considered the problem of determining formulas for the number of representations of a natural number $n$ by a sum of $k$ triangular numbers and derived many applications, including the one…

This is a survey article for "Handbook of Linear Algebra", 2nd ed., Chapman & Hall/CRC, 2014. An informal introduction to representations of quivers and finite dimensional algebras from a linear algebraist's point of view is given. The…

Let $\mathbf H_2$ denote the set of even integers $n \not\equiv 1 \pmod 3$. We prove that when $H \ge X^{0.33}$, almost all integers $n \in \mathbf H_2$, $X < n \le X + H$ can be represented as the sum of a prime and the square of a prime.…

Let $f(x, y) \in \mathbb{Z}[x, y]$ be a cubic form with non-zero discriminant, and for each integer $m \in \mathbb{Z}$, let, $N_{f}(m)=\#\left\{(x, y) \in \mathbb{Z}^{2}: f(x, y)=m\right\} $. In 1983, Silverman proved that…
