This paper proves that the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularities of the product and sum of two monomial complete intersection ideals are at most the sum of the regularities of the two ideals, and provides examples showing that these inequalities…
We study the sum-product problem for the planar hypercomplex numbers: the dual numbers and double numbers. These number systems are similar to the complex numbers, but it turns out that they have a very different combinatorial behavior. We…
As a generalization of [KMW], we introduce a higher Riemann zeta function for an abstract sequence. Then we explicitly determine its regularized product expression.
We give "hybrid" proofs of the $q$-binomial theorem and other identities. The proofs are "hybrid" in the sense that we use partition arguments to prove a restricted version of the theorem, and then use analytic methods (in the form of the…
We study the regularity of solutions of functional equations of a generalized mean value type. In this paper we give sufficient conditions for the regularity by using hypoellipticity which is a concept of the theory of partial differential…
We refine Schmidt's problem and a partition identity related to 2-color partitions which we will refer to as Uncu-Andrews-Paule theorem. We will approach the problem using Boulet-Stanley weights and a formula on Rogers-Szeg\H{o} polynomials…
This paper deals with the regularization of the sum of functions defined on a locally convex spaces through their closed-convex hulls in the bidual space. Different conditions guaranteeing that the closed-convex hull of the sum is the sum…
Resolving a conjecture of Zhi-Wei Sun, we prove that every rational number can be represented as a sum of distinct unit fractions whose denominators are practical numbers. The same method applies to allowed denominators that are closed…
This is a sequel to the paper arXiv:1312.6438 by the same authors. In this sequel, we quantitatively improve several of the main results of arXiv:1312.6438, and build on the methods therein. The main new results is that, for any finite set…
A variation on the sum-product problem seeks to show that a set which is defined by additive and multiplicative operations will always be large. In this paper, we prove new results of this type. In particular, we show that for any finite…
The famous result of Lindemann and Weierstrass says that if $a_{1},a_{2},\ldots,a_{n}$ are distinct algebraic numbers, then $e^{a_{1}},e^{a_{2}},\ldots,e^{a_{n}}$ are linearly independent complex numbers over the field…
We improve a result of Solymosi on sum-products in R, namely, we prove that max{|A+A|,|AA|}\gg |A|^{4/3+c}, where c>0 is an absolute constant. New lower bounds for sums of sets with small product set are found. Previous results are improved…
In his book Topics in Analytic Number Theory, Rademacher considered the generating function of partitions into at most $N$ parts, and conjectured certain limits for the coefficients of its partial fraction decomposition. We carry out an…
We extend previous work on Hrushovski's stabilizer's theorem and prove a measure-theoretic version of a well-known result of Pillay-Scanlon-Wagner on products of three types. This generalizes results of Gowers on products of three sets and…
In this paper, we prove a conjecture of Andrews and Bachraoui relating a generating function arising from two-color partitions (with odd smallest part and restrictions on the even parts) to a Hecke-type double sum. Our proof is based on…
We disprove the sum-product conjecture for real numbers by constructing arbitrarily large $A\subset \mathbb{R}$ (whose elements are algebraic integers in a number field of degree $\asymp \log\lvert A\rvert$) such that \[\max(\lvert…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety defined on a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. On $X$ there is a special morphism $Fr_X$, which raises coordinates to exponent $q$: $t\mapsto t^q$. The two main results in this paper are: Result 1: If…
We give a new proof of a version of the main theorem of the previous paper in the series about embedding of an algebraic system into ultraproducts.
By means of partial fraction method, we investigate the decomposition of rational functions. Several striking identities on harmonic numbers and generalized Apery numbers will be established, including the binomial-harmonic number identity…
We prove a sharp version of Hal\'asz's theorem on sums $\sum_{n \leq x} f(n)$ of multiplicative functions $f$ with $|f(n)|\le 1$. Our proof avoids the "average of averages" and "integration over $\alpha$" manoeuvres that are present in many…
