A SONC polynomial is a sum of finitely many non-negative circuit polynomials, whereas a non-negative circuit polynomial is a non-negative polynomial whose support is a simplicial circuit. We show that there exist non-negative polynomials…
In this paper we continue our research on the concept of liken. This notion has been defined as a sequence of non-negative real numbers, tending to infinity and closed with respect to addition in $\mathbb{R}$. The most important examples of…
The explicit formulas for the sums of positive powers of the integers $s_i$ unrepresentable by the triple of integers $d_1,d_2,d_3\in {\mathbb N}, \gcd(d_1,d_2,d_3)=1$, are derived.
A sequence $A$ of elements an additive group $G$ is {\it incomplete} if there exists a group element that {\it can not} be expressed as a sum of elements from $A$. The study of incomplete sequences is a popular topic in combinatorial number…
A semigroup A is an abelian semigroup with identity 0. A set of positives in A is an ordered down-directed set P containing with every r an element r/2 with r/2 + r/2 = r. A continuity space is an abstract set X equipped with a map d : XxX…
We evaluate the nested sum $\sum_{a_{n - 1} = c}^{a_n } {\sum_{a_{n - 2} = c}^{a_{n - 1} } { \cdots \sum_{a_0 = c}^{a_1 } {x^{a_0 } } } }$ where $a_n$ and $c$ are any integers and $x$ is a real or complex variable. Consequently, we evaluate…
The notion of an anti-commutative (resp. commutative) rigid superalgebra is a natural generalisation of the notion of a Lie (resp. Jordan) superalgebra. Intuitively rigidity means that small deformations of the product under the structural…
If $Q$ is a surjection from $L^1(\mu)$, $\mu$ $\sigma$-finite, onto a Banach space containing $c_0$ then (*) $\ker Q$ is uncomplemented in its second dual. If $Q$ is a surjection from an ${\cal L}_1$-space onto a Banach space containing…
Nonlinear complexity, as an important measure for assessing the randomness of sequences, is defined as the length of the shortest feedback shift registers that can generate a given sequence. In this paper, the structure of n-periodic binary…
The cone of sums of nonnegative circuits (SONCs) is a subset of the cone of nonnegative polynomials / exponential sums, which has been studied extensively in recent years. In this article, we construct a subset of the SONC cone which we…
A systematic construction of a class of integrable hierarchy is discussed in terms of the twisted affine $A_{2r}^{(2)}$ Lie algebra. The zero curvature representation of the time evolution equations are shown to be classified according to…
For $\eta\in S_3$, let $S_n^{\text{av}(\eta)}$ denote the set of permutations in $S_n$ that avoid the pattern $\eta$, and let $E_n^{\text{av}(\eta)}$ denote the expectation with respect to the uniform probability measure on…
In this article, we classify (non-compact) $3$-manifolds with uniformly positive scalar curvature. Precisely, we show that an oriented $3$-manifold has a complete metric with uniformly positive scalar curvature if and only if it is…
We extend integrable systems on quad-graphs, such as the Hirota equation and the cross-ratio equation, to the non-commutative context, when the fields take values in an arbitrary associative algebra. We demonstrate that the…
The space of linearly recursive sequences of complex numbers admits two distinguished topologies. Namely, the adic topology induced by the ideal of those sequences whose first term is $0$ and the topology induced from the Krull topology on…
Given a sequence A=(a1,...,an) of real numbers, a block B of the A is either a set B={ai,...,aj} where i<=j or the empty set. The size b of a block B is the sum of its elements. We show that when 0<=ai<=1 and k is a positive integer, there…
The Ulam sequence is given by $a_1 =1, a_2 = 2$, and then, for $n \geq 3$, the element $a_n$ is defined as the smallest integer that can be written as the sum of two distinct earlier elements in a unique way. This gives the sequence $1, 2,…
This paper is devoted to the study of Sidon sets, $\Lambda(p)$-sets and some related notions for compact quantum groups. We establish several different characterizations of Sidon sets, and in particular prove that any Sidon set in a…
Sidon spaces have been introduced by Bachoc, Serra and Z\'emor as the $q$-analogue of Sidon sets, classical combinatorial objects introduced by Simon Szidon. In 2018 Roth, Raviv and Tamo introduced the notion of $r$-Sidon spaces, as an…
We count the number of alignments of $N \ge 1$ sequences when match-up types are from a specified set $S\subseteq \mathbb{N}^N$. Equivalently, we count the number of nonnegative integer matrices whose rows sum to a given fixed vector and…
