In this paper, we show that the difference between the number of parts in the odd partitions of $n$ and the number of parts in the distinct partitions of $n$ satisfies Euler's recurrence relation for the partition function $p(n)$ when $n$…

This paper explores robust recovery of a superposition of $R$ distinct complex exponential functions from a few random Gaussian projections. We assume that the signal of interest is of $2N-1$ dimensional and $R<<2N-1$. This framework covers…

The twisted $T$-adic exponential sum associated to $x^{d}+\lambda x$ is studied. If $\lambda\neq0,$ then an explicit arithmetic polygon is proved to be the Newton polygon of the twisted $C$-function of the T-adic exponential sum. It gives…

Sums over inverse s-th powers of semiprimes and k-almost primes are transformed into sums over products of powers of ordinary prime zeta functions. Multinomial coefficients known from the cycle decomposition of permutation groups play the…

Consider an ordinary generating function $\sum_{k=0}^{\infty}c_kx^k$, of an integer sequence of some combinatorial relevance, and assume that it admits a closed form $C(x)$. Various instances are known where the corresponding truncated sum…

We show generic existence of power series a with complex coefficients a_n, such that the sequence of partial sums of a new power series where its coefficients b_n are functions of a_0, a_1, ..., a_n approximate every polynomial uniformly on…

As was shown recently by the authors, the entropy power inequality can be reversed for independent summands with sufficiently concave densities, when the distributions of the summands are put in a special position. In this note it is proved…

Two numbers $m$ and $n$ are considered amicable if the sum of their proper divisors, $s(n)$ and $s(m)$, satisfy $s(n) = m$ and $s(m) = n$. In 1981, Pomerance showed that the sum of the reciprocals of all such numbers, $P$, is a constant. We…

Let G be a graph, and let $\chi$G be its chromatic polynomial. For any non-negative integers i, j, we give an interpretation for the evaluation $\chi$ (i) G (--j) in terms of acyclic orientations. This recovers the classical interpretations…

In this paper, we introduce a new class of nonnegative tensors --- strictly nonnegative tensors. A weakly irreducible nonnegative tensor is a strictly nonnegative tensor but not vice versa. We show that the spectral radius of a strictly…

Let $n$ and $k$ be integers such that $1\le k\le n$ and $f(x)$ be a nonzero polynomial of integer coefficients such that $f(m)\ne 0$ for any positive integer $m$. For any $k$-tuple $\vec{s}=(s_1, ..., s_k)$ of positive integers, we define…

We give an affirmative full-range solution to Gaunt's 2019 Open Problem~2.10. The problem asks whether, for every \(\nu>-1/2\) and \(0<\gamma<1\), the reciprocal-power integral \(\int_0^x e^{-\gamma t}I_\nu(t)t^{-\nu}\,\dd t\) is bounded by…

Let $\Phi_{\Lambda_{n}}$ be the unique solution of the differential operator $L=\prod_{j=0}^{n}\left( \frac{d}{dx}-\lambda_{j}\right) $ such that $\Phi_{\Lambda_{n}}^{\left( j\right) }\left( 0\right) =0$ for $j=0,...,n-1,$ and…

This paper proves a reciprocity formula for modular inverses for non-zero integers and demonstrates some applications of the reciprocity formula in calculating or verifying some modular inverses of specific forms, including the modular…

We consider two multiplicative statistics on the set of integer partitions: the norm of a partition, which is the product of its parts, and the supernorm of a partition, which is the product of the prime numbers $p_i$ indexed by its parts…

For any odd positive integer $x$, define $(x_n)_{n\geqslant 0} $ and $(a_n )_{n\geqslant 1} $ by setting $x_{0}=x, \,\, x_n =\cfrac{3x_{n-1} +1}{2^{a_n }}$ such that all $x_n $ are odd. The 3x+1 problem asserts that there is an $x_n =1$ for…

A classical theorem of Kempner states that the sum of the reciprocals of positive integers with missing decimal digits converges. This result is extended to much larger families of "missing digits" sets of positive integers with both…

The most simple and famous divergent power series coming from ODE may be the so-called Euler series $\sum_{n\ge 0}(-1)^n\,n!\,x^{n+1}$, that, as well as all its positive powers, is Borel-summable in any direction excepted the negative real…

We study quantum mechanical systems with a discrete spectrum. We show that the asymptotic series associated to certain paths of steepest-descent (Lefschetz thimbles) are Borel resummable to the full result. Using a geometrical approach…

Let $\chi(A)$ denote the characteristic polynomial of a matrix $A$ over a field; a standard result of linear algebra states that $\chi(A^{-1})$ is the reciprocal polynomial of $\chi(A)$. More formally, the condition $\chi^n(X)…
