For each positive integer n greater than or equal to 2, a new approach to expressing real numbers as sequences of nonnegative integers is given. The n=2 case is equivalent to the standard continued fraction algorithm. For n=3, it reduces to…
We study some essential arithmetic properties of a new tree-based number representation, {\em hereditarily binary numbers}, defined by applying recursively run-length encoding of bijective base-2 digits. Our representation expresses giant…
Given any positive integer $n,$ let $A(n)$ denote the height of the $n^{\text{th}}$ cyclotomic polynomial, that is its maximum coefficient in absolute value. It is well known that $A(n)$ is unbounded. We conjecture that every natural number…
We study the problem of generating interesting integer sequences with a combinatorial interpretation. For this we introduce a two-step approach. In the first step, we generate first-order logic sentences which define some combinatorial…
The idea of generating prime numbers through sequence of sets of co-primes was the starting point of this paper that ends up by proving two conjectures, the existence of infinitely many twin primes and the Goldbach conjecture. The main idea…
We introduce a new class of "filtered" schemes for some first order non-linear Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations. The work follows recent ideas of Froese and Oberman (SIAM J. Numer. Anal., Vol 51, pp.423-444, 2013). The proposed schemes are…
In this note we present a notion of fundamental scheme for Cohen- Macaulay, order 1, irreducible congruences of lines. We show that such a congruence is formed by the k-secant lines to its fundamental scheme for a number k that we call the…
This article surveys results on graded algebras and their Hilbert series. We give simple constructions of finitely generated graded associative algebras $R$ with Hilbert series $H(R,t)$ very close to an arbitrary power series $a(t)$ with…
A random planar quadrangulation process is introduced as an approximation for certain cellular automata in terms of random growth of rays from a given set of points. This model turns out to be a particular (rectangular) case of the…
We prove that the set of non-degenerate second order maximally superintegrable systems in the complex Euclidean plane carries a natural structure of a projective variety, equipped with a linear isometry group action. This is done by…
The paper describes the algebraic structure of the graded algebra of differentially homogeneous polynomials of fixed finite order. We show that it is a finitely generated algebra, and we exhibit a minimal set of generators. Along the way,…
One proves that the Rees algebra of an ideal generated by three general binary forms of same degree $\geq 5$ has depth one. The proof hinges on the behavior of the Ratliff-Rush filtration for low powers of the ideal and on establishing that…
We consider random filtered complexes built over marked point processes on Euclidean spaces. Examples of our filtered complexes include a filtration of $\check{\textrm{C}}$ech complexes of a family of sets with various sizes, growths, and…
The Fermat numbers have many notable properties, including order universality, coprimality, and definition by a recurrence relation. We use arbitrary elliptic curves and rational points of infinite order to generate sequences that are…
Let $K$ be a finitely generated field. We construct an $n$-dimensional linear system $\mathcal{L}$ of hypersurfaces of degree $d$ in $\mathbb{P}^n$ defined over $K$ such that each member of $\mathcal{L}$ defined over $K$ is smooth, under…
We consider primitive divisors of terms of integer sequences defined by quadratic polynomials. Apart from some small counterexamples, when a term has a primitive divisor, that primitive divisor is unique. It seems likely that the number of…
A special class of Jordan algebras over a field $F$ of characteristic zero is considered. Such an algebra consists of an $r$-dimensional subspace of the vector space of all square matrices of a fixed order $n$ over $F$. It contains the…
Denoting by ${\mathcal L}_d(m_0,m_1,...,m_r)$ the linear system of plane curves passing through $r+1$ generic points $p_0,p_1,...,p_r$ of the projective plane with multiplicity $m_i$ (or larger) at each $p_i$, we prove the…
Real complex systems are not rigidly structured; no clear rules or blueprints exist for their construction. Yet, amidst their apparent randomness, complex structural properties universally emerge. We propose that an important class of…
We study linear series on a general curve of genus $g$, whose images are exceptional with regard to their secant planes. Working in the framework of an extension of Brill-Noether theory to pairs of linear series, we prove that a general…
