Let $m$ and $n$ be two positive integers such that $m < n$. Let $Q_{n-m+1}$ be the symplectic quasi-projective space of rank $n-m+1$. In this article, we will study the order of the Samelson product $S^{4m-1}\wedge Q_{n-m+1}\rightarrow…
A Lie group is called $p$-regular if it has the $p$-local homotopy type of a product of spheres. (Non)triviality of the Samelson products of the inclusions of the factor spheres into $p$-regular $\mathrm{SO}(2n)_{(p)}$ is determined, which…
We estimate the sizes of the sumset A + A and the productset A $\cdot$ A in the special case that A = S (x, y), the set of positive integers n less than or equal to x, free of prime factors exceeding y.
We consider Lie groups ${\rm SU}(n,1)$ and ${\rm Sp}(n,1)$ that act as the isometries of the complex and quaternionic hyperbolic spaces respectively. We classify pairs of semisimple elements in ${\rm Sp}(n,1)$ and ${\rm SU}(n,1)$ up to…
Let $p \equiv 1 \pmod{4}$ be prime, let $m$ and $n$ be integers such that $p=m^2+n^2$, and let $b$ be a positive integer. Let $Q(z,q) = (z,q/z,q;q)_{\infty}(qz^2,q/z^2;q^2)_{\infty}$ denote the product appearing in the quintuple product…
Let $\alpha \in (0,1)$ and irrational. We investigate the asymptotic behaviour of sequences of certain trigonometric products (Sudler products) $(P_N(\alpha))_{N\in\mathbb{N}}$ with $$P_N(\alpha) =\prod_{r=1}^N|2\sin(\pi r \alpha)|.$$ More…
The purpose of this paper is to identify all of the Cayley-Dickson doubling products. A Cayley-Dickson algebra $\mathbb{A}_{N+1}$ of dimension $2^{N+1}$ consists of all ordered pairs of elements of a Cayley-Dickson algebra $\mathbb{A}_{N}$…
In recent work, M. Schneider and the first author studied a curious class of integer partitions called "sequentially congruent" partitions: the $m$th part is congruent to the $(m+1)$th part modulo $m$, with the smallest part congruent to…
Consider the congruence class R_m(a)={a+im:i\in Z} and the infinite arithmetic progression P_m(a)={a+im:i\in N_0}. For positive integers a,b,c,d,m the sum of products set R_m(a)R_m(b)+R_m(c)R_m(d) consists of all integers of the form…
There is a product decomposition of a compact connected Lie group $G$ at the prime $p$, called the mod $p$ decomposition, when $G$ has no $p$-torsion in homology. Then in studying the multiplicative structure of the $p$-localization of $G$,…
An ordered triple $(s,p,n)$ is called admissible if there exist two different multisets $X=\{x_1,x_2,\dotsc,x_n\}$ and $Y=\{y_1,y_2,\dotsc,y_n\}$ such that $X$ and $Y$ share the same sum $s$, the same product $p$, and the same size $n$. We…
Let $n$ be a positive integer and $f(x) := x^{2^n}+1$. In this paper, we study orders of primes dividing products of the form $P_{m,n}:=f(1)f(2)\cdots f(m)$. We prove that if $m > \max\{10^{12},4^{n+1}\}$, then there exists a prime divisor…
Let $a$ and $b$ be relatively prime integers. Then the first Lucas sequence $\left(U_n\right)_{n\geq0}$ and the second Lucas sequence $\left(V_n\right)_{n\geq0}$ are defined respectively by $U_{n+2}=aU_{n+1}+bU_{n},\, U_0=0,\,U_1=1$ and…
We introduce the subsum polynomial of a partition $\lambda=(\lambda_1, \lambda_2, \ldots, \lambda_k)$ defined by $\mathrm{sp}(\lambda, x)=\prod_{i=1}^k(1+x^{\lambda_i})$. We study the sum of reciprocals of $\mathrm{sp}(\lambda, x)$ over all…
Let $S = \{q_1, \ldots , q_s\}$ be a finite, non-empty set of distinct prime numbers. For a non-zero integer $m$, write $m = q_1^{r_1} \ldots q_s^{r_s} M$, where $r_1, \ldots , r_s$ are non-negative integers and $M$ is an integer relatively…
Given an irrational number $\alpha\in(0,1)$, the Sudler product is defined by $P_N(\alpha) = \prod_{r=1}^{N}2|\sin\pi r\alpha|$. Answering a question of Grepstad, Kaltenb\"ock and Neum\"uller we prove an asymptotic formula for distorted…
This paper presents the methods to utilizing the $s$-fold extension of Bailey's lemma to obtain $spt$-type functions related to the symmetrized rank function $\eta_{2k}(n).$ We provide the $k=2$ example, but clearly illustrate how deep…
The (non)triviality of Samelson products of the inclusions of the spheres into p-regular exceptional Lie groups is completely determined, where a connected Lie group is called p-regular if it has the p-local homotopy type of a product of…

In this paper, we study the symmetric rank of products of linear forms and an irreducible quadratic form. The main result presents a new, non-trivial lower bound for the rank, and the arguments rely on the apolarity lemma. In the special…
