Let $a(z)=\sum_{i\in\mathbb Z}a_iz^i$ be a complex valued continuous function, defined for $|z|=1$, such that $\sum_{i=-\infty}^{+\infty}|ia_i|<\infty$. Consider the semi-infinite Toeplitz matrix $T(a)=(t_{i,j})_{i,j\in\mathbb Z^+}$…

Assume that $\{a_{n};\,n\geq0\}$ is a sequence of positive numbers and $\sum a_{n}^{\,-1}<\infty$. Let $\alpha_{n}=ka_{n}$, $\beta_{n}=a_{n}+k^{2}a_{n-1}$ where $k\in(0,1)$ is a parameter, and let $\{P_{n}(x)\}$ be an orthonormal polynomial…

We present a collection of new results on problems related to 3SUM, including: 1. The first truly subquadratic algorithm for $\ \ \ \ \ $ 1a. computing the (min,+) convolution for monotone increasing sequences with integer values bounded by…

We construct a binary linear code $C(O(3,q))$, associated with the orthogonal group $O(3,q)$. Here $q$ is a power of two. Then we obtain a recursive formula for the odd power moments of Kloosterman sums with trace one arguments in terms of…

Terwilliger recently introduced the $S_3$-symmetric tridiagonal algebra, a generalization of the tridiagonal algebra. This algebra has six generators naturally associated with the vertices of a regular hexagon: adjacent generators satisfy…

The invisibility graph $I(X)$ of a set $X \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ is a (possibly infinite) graph whose vertices are the points of $X$ and two vertices are connected by an edge if and only if the straight-line segment connecting the two…

In this work we obtain positive bounded solutions of various perturbations of \begin{equation} \left\{ \begin{array}{lcl} \hfill -\Delta u - \gamma \sum_{i,j=1}^N \frac{x_i x_j}{|x|^2} u_{x_i x_j} &=& u^p \qquad \mbox{ in } B_1, \\ \hfill u…

For a finite Abelian group $(\Gamma,+)$, let $n(\Gamma)$ denote the smallest positive integer $n$ such that for each labelling of the arcs of the complete digraph of order $n$ using elements from $\Gamma$, there exists a directed cycle such…

Much work has been done attempting to understand the dynamic behaviour of the so-called "3x+1" function. It is known that finite sequences of iterations with a given length and a given number of odd terms have some combinatorial properties…

The Chazy equation $y''' = 2yy'' - 3y'^2$ is derived from the automorphic properties of Schwarz triangle functions $S(\alpha, \beta, \gamma; z)$. It is shown that solutions $y$ which are analytic in the fundamental domain of these triangle…

In this work we use the number classification in families of the form 6n+1, and 6n+5 with n integer (Such families contain all odd prime numbers greater than 3 and other compound numbers related with primes). We will use this kind of…

In 2014, Wang and Cai established the following harmonic congruence for any odd prime $p$ and positive integer $r$, \begin{equation*} \sum\limits_{i+j+k=p^{r}\atop{i,j,k\in \mathcal{P}_{p}}}\frac{1}{ijk}\equiv-2p^{r-1}B_{p-3} ~(\bmod ~…

Let n be a positive odd integer and let p>n+1 be a prime. We mainly derive the following congruence: $$\sum_{0<i_1<...<i_n<p}(i_1/3)(-1)^{i_1}/(i_1...i_n)=0 (mod p).$$

This work deals with the consumption chemotaxis problem \begin{equation*} \begin{cases*} u_t = \Delta u - \chi \nabla \cdot u\nabla v + \lambda u - \mu u^2 - c \lvert \nabla u \rvert^\gamma, & \text{in $\Omega\times(0,\tmax)$}, v_t = \Delta…

We consider the problem of the unification modulo an equational theory ACh, which consists of a function symbol $h$ that is homomorphic over an associative-commutative operator $+$. Since the unification modulo ACh theory is undecidable, we…

The \textit{Collatz's conjecture} is an unsolved problem in mathematics. It is named after Lothar Collatz in 1973. The conjecture also known as Syrucuse conjecture or problem. Take any positive integer $ n $. If $ n $ is even then divide it…

For the truncated moment problem associated to a complex sequence $\gamma ^{(2n)}=\{\gamma _{ij}\}_{i,j\in Z_{+},i+j \leq 2n}$ to have a representing measure $\mu $, it is necessary for the moment matrix $M(n)$ to be positive semidefinite,…

The $3k-4$ Theorem is a classical result which asserts that if $A,\,B\subseteq \mathbb Z$ are finite, nonempty subsets with \begin{equation}\label{hyp}|A+B|=|A|+|B|+r\leq |A|+|B|+\min\{|A|,\,|B|\}-3-\delta,\end{equation} where $\delta=1$ if…
