In this paper we study the possibility to define irreducible representations of the symmetric groups with the help of finitely many relations. The existence of finite bases is established for the classes of representations corresponding to…
By using Beta Dirichlet series and then Eisenstein series we ca represent primes with first a good approximation and an exact expression. This can be done with arbitrary prime (up to 10^101).
We consider representing of natural numbers by arithmetical expressions using ones, addition, multiplication and parentheses. The (integer) complexity of n -- denoted by ||n|| -- is defined as the number of ones in the shortest expressions…
We show that an iterative method for computing the center of mass (CM) of q units of mass, placed on a unit interval [0, 1] along the x- axis, give rise to a simple procedure for expanding rational numbers less than unity in powers of r/s <…
We derive a general recurrence relation for squares of Fibonacci-like numbers. Various properties are developed, including double binomial summation identites.
A study of certain Hamiltonian systems has lead Y. Long to conjecture the existence of infinitely many primes of the form $p=2[\alpha n]+1$, where $1<\alpha<2$ is a fixed irrational number. An argument of P. Ribenboim coupled with classical…
Ordinary binary multiplication of natural numbers can be generalized in a non-trivial way to a ternary operation by considering discrete volumes of lattice hexagons. With this operation, a natural notion of `3-primality' -- primality with…
Let $g \geq 2$ be an integer. A natural number is said to be a base-$g$ Niven number if it is divisible by the sum of its base-$g$ digits. Assuming Hooley's Riemann Hypothesis, we prove that the set of base-$g$ Niven numbers is an additive…
We count subrings of small index of $\mathbb{Z}^n$, where the addition and multiplication are defined componentwise. Let $f_n(k)$ denote the number of subrings of index $k$. For any $n$, we give a formula for this quantity for all integers…
In this paper, we introduce the concept of $F$-perfect number, which is a positive integer $n$ such that $\sum_{d|n,d<n}d^2=3n$. We prove that all the $F$-perfect numbers are of the form $n=F_{2k-1}F_{2k+1}$, where both $F_{2k-1}$ and…
Let $q\in(1,2)$; it is known that each $x\in[0,1/(q-1)]$ has an expansion of the form $x=\sum_{n=1}^\infty a_nq^{-n}$ with $a_n\in\{0,1\}$. It was shown in \cite{EJK} that if $q<(\sqrt5+1)/2$, then each $x\in(0,1/(q-1))$ has a continuum of…
There exists a particular subset of algebraic power series over a finite field which, for different reasons, can be compared to the subset of quadratic real numbers. The continued fraction expansion for these elements, called…
It is shown that there are no non-trivial fifth-, seventh-, eleventh-, thirteenth- or seventeenth powers in the Fibonacci sequence. For eleventh, thirteenth- and seventeenth powers an alternative (to the usual exhaustive check of products…
In this paper, we investigate two methods to express the natural powers of $2$ as sums over integer partitions. First we consider a formula by N. J. Fine that allows us to express a binomial coefficient in terms of multinomial coefficients…
The problems of Hadamard quantum coin flipping in n-trials and related generalized Fibonacci sequences of numbers were introduced in [1]. It was shown that for an arbitrary number of repeated consecutive states, probabilities are determined…
We perform the computations necessary to establish a multiplicity one statement for the irreducible representations of a finite spin group which in turn yields the classification of irreducible representations of finite spin groups. (The…
Recently, Harrington, Litman, and Wong [Bulletin of the Australian Mathematical Society, 2024; arXiv:2303.06534] proved that every arithmetic progression contains infinitely many base-$b$ Niven numbers, for any fixed $b\ge 2$. We use a…
We study partitions of complex numbers as sums of non-negative powers of a fixed algebraic number $\beta$. We prove that if $\beta$ is real quadratic, then the number of partitions is always finite if and only if some conjugate of $\beta$…
The goal is to obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of quadratic extensions with bounded discriminant of a some quadratic number field with odd class number. This extends an already known result for Q.
We study the computational complexity of converting one representation of real numbers into another representation. Typical examples of representations are Cauchy sequences, base-10 expansions, Dedekind cuts and continued fractions.
