Given a linear equation $\cal E$ of the form $ax + by = cz$ where $a$, $b$, $c$ are positive integers, the $k$-colour Rado number $R_k({\cal E})$ is the smallest positive integer $n$, if it exists, such that every $k$-colouring of the…

We study the power sum problem max_{v=1,...,m} | sum_{k=1}^n z_k^v | and by using features of Fejer kernels we give new lower bounds in the case of unimodular complex numbers z_k and m cn^2 for constants c>1.

The supporting vectors of a matrix A are the solutions of max || x ||_2 =1 {||Ax||_2^2}. The generalized supporting vectors of matrices A_1 , . . . , A_k are the solutions of max || x ||_2 =1 {||A_1x||_2^2 + ||A_2x||_2^2 + ... +…

Several widely-used textbooks lead the reader to believe that solving a linear system of equations Ax = b by multiplying the vector b by a computed inverse inv(A) is inaccurate. Virtually all other textbooks on numerical analysis and…
