We find two bases for the lattices of the SU(2)-TQFT-theory modules of the torus over given rings of integers. We use variant of the bases defined in [GMW]for the lattices of the SO(3)-TQFT-theory modules of the torus. Moreover, we discuss…

Let E be a toric fibration arising from symplectic reduction of a direct sum of line bundles over (almost-) K\"ahler base B. Then each torus-fixed point of the toric manifold fiber defines a section of the fibration. Let L_a be convex line…

This paper concerns the long-standing question of representing (totally) anti-symmetric functions in high dimensions. We propose a new ansatz based on the composition of an odd function with a fixed set of anti-symmetric basis functions. We…

We find exact identities for sums of the form \begin{equation*}\label{eq:convsumabs} \sum_{\stackrel{n_1+n_2 = n}{n_1 \in \mathbb{Z} \setminus \{ 0, n \} }} Q(n_1,n_2) \sigma_{-r_1}(n_1) \sigma_{-r_2}(n_2), \end{equation*} where…

We consider a measure of similarity for infinite words that generalizes the notion of asymptotic or natural density of subsets of natural numbers from number theory. We show that every overlap-free infinite binary word, other than the…

We study the triple convolution sum of the generalised divisor functions $$\sum_{n\leq x} d_k(n+h)d_l(n)d_m(n-h),$$ where $h \le x^{1-\epsilon}$ for any $\epsilon>0$ and $d_k(n)$ denotes the generalised divisor function which counts the…

Using the $3D$ mirror symmetry we construct a system of polynomials $T_s(z)$ with integral coefficients which solve the quantum differential equitation of $X=T^{*} Gr(k,n)$ modulo $p^s$, where $p$ is a prime number. We show that the…

To investigate the topological structure of Morse functions on the projective plane we use the Reeb graphs. We describe it properties and prove that it is a complete topological invariant of simple Morse function on $\mathbb{R} P^2$. We…

We introduce the concept of a triangular representation of a Lie algebra, give a counterpart of Ado's theorem, and discuss $2$-irreducible triangular modules over a nonreductive Lie algebra.

Let $s_2$ be the sum-of-digits function in base $2$, which returns the number of non-zero binary digits of a nonnegative integer $n$. We study $s_2$ alon g arithmetic subsequences and show that --- up to a shift --- the set of $m$-tuples of…

We investigate the representation of the symmetric group afforded by the action on its conjugacy class of fixed point free involutions, over an algebraically closed field of finite characteristic p. We discuss the general form of the set of…

The $3x+1$ Problem asks if whether for every natural number $n$, there exists a finite number of iterations of the piecewise function $$f(2n)=n, \quad f(2n-1)=6n-2, $$ with an iterate equal to the number $1$, or in other words, every…

A set $\mathcal{A}$ is said to be an additive $h$-basis if each element in $\{0,1,\ldots,hn\}$ can be written as an $h$-sum of elements of $\mathcal{A}$ in {\it at least} one way. We seek multiple representations as $h$-sums, and, in this…

By [R. Bautista, P. Gabriel, A.V Roiter., L. Salmeron, Representation-finite algebras and multiplicative basis. Invent. Math. 81 (1985) 217-285.], a finite-dimensional algebra having finitely many isoclasses of indecomposable…

We characterize $3$-dimensional manifolds represented as connected sums of Lens spaces, copies of $S^2 \times S^1$, and torus bundles over the circle by certain Morse-Bott functions. This adds to our previous result around 2024, classifying…

Let $\tau$ denote the divisor function, and $f$ be any multiplicative function that satisfies some mild hypotheses. We establish the asymptotic formula or non-trivial upper bound for the shifted convolution sum $\sum_{n \leq…

The third-named author recently proved [Israel J. of Math. 258 (2023), 475--502] that there are infinitely many \textit{collisions} of the base-2 and base-3 sum-of-digits functions. In other words, the equation \[ s_2(n)=s_3(n) \] admits…

We establish that, for almost all natural numbers $N$, there is a sum of two positive integral cubes lying in the interval $[N-N^{7/18+\epsilon},N]$. Here, the exponent $7/18$ lies half way between the trivial exponent $4/9$ stemming from…

Answering affirmatively a 2007 problem of Chen, the first author proved that there is a unique representation basis $A$ of $\mathbb{Z}$ and a constant $c>0$ such that $$ A(-x,x)\ge c\sqrt{x} $$ for infinitely many positive integers $x$,…

We work an analogue of a classical arithmetic problem over polynomials. More precisely, we study the fixed points $F$ of the sum of divisors function $\sigma : F_2[x] \mapsto F_2[x]$ (defined \emph{mutatis mutandi} like the usual sum of…
