Gerbner, Patk\'{o}s, Tuza, and Vizer recently initiated the study of $F$-saturated regular graphs. One of the essential problems in this line of research is determining when such a graph exists. Using generalized sum-free sets we prove that…

Of what use are the zeros of the Riemann zeta function? We can use sums involving zeta zeros to count the primes up to $x$. Perron's formula leads to sums over zeta zeros that can count the squarefree integers up to $x$, or tally Euler's…

In this paper, we study different generalizations of the notion of squarefreeness for ideals to the more general case of modules. We describe the cones of Hilbert functions for squarefree modules in general and those generated in degree…

We prove that there exist infinitely many consecutive zeros of the Riemann zeta-function on the critical line whose gaps are greater than $3.18$ times the average spacing. Using a modification of our method, we also show that there are even…

We introduce a generalization of the celebrated Lov\'asz theta number of a graph to simplicial complexes of arbitrary dimension. Our generalization takes advantage of real simplicial cohomology theory, in particular combinatorial…

In this paper, we study how short an interval $[x, x + x^\theta]$ contains an integer of the form $n_1 n_2 n_3$ and $m_1 m_2 m_3 m_4$ with $n_1 \approx n_2 \approx n_3$ and $m_1 \approx m_2 \approx m_3 \approx m_4$. The new idea is to adopt…

We consider sums of oscillating functions on intervals in cyclic groups of size close to the square root of the size of the group. We first prove non-trivial estimates for intervals of length slightly larger than this square root (bridging…

Given f in Z[x_1,...,x_n], we compute the density of x in Z^n such that f(x) is squarefree, assuming the abc conjecture. Given f,g in Z[x_1,...,x_n], we compute unconditionally the density of x in Z^n such that gcd(f(x),g(x))=1. Function…

We give a general statement of the convolution method so that one can provide explicit asymptotic estimations for all averages of square-free supported arithmetic functions that have a sufficiently regular order on the prime numbers and…

A word is \emph{square-free} if it does not contain non-empty factors of the form $XX$. In 1906 Thue proved that there exist arbitrarily long square-free words over $3$-letter alphabet. We consider a new type of square-free words. A…

The small rough angle ($\mbox{SRA}$) condition, introduced by Zolotov in arXiv:1804.00234, captures the idea that all angles formed by triples of points in a metric space are small. In the first part of the paper, we develop the theory of…

We prove that among 1 and the odd zeta values $\zeta(3)$, $\zeta(5)$, \ldots, $\zeta(s)$, at least $ 0.21 \sqrt{s}/\sqrt{\log s}$ are linearly independent over the rationals, for any sufficiently large odd integer $s$. This is the first…

Consider the number of integers in a short interval that can be represented as a sum of two squares. What is an estimate for the variance of these counts over random short intervals? We resolve a function field variant of this problem in…

It is not difficult to find an asymptotic formula for the number of pairs of positive integers $x, y \le H$ such that $x^2 + y^2 + 1$ is squarefree. In the present paper we improve the estimate for the error term in this formula using the…

In this paper, we proved that there are infinite cube--free numbers of the form $[n^c]$ for any fixed real number $1<c<11/6$.

We present a limit theorem describing the behavior of a probabilistic model for square-free numbers. The limiting distribution has a density that comes from the Dickman-De Bruijn function and is constant on the interval $[0,1]$. We also…

We establish upper and lower bounds for the number of integral points which lie within a neighbourhood of a smooth nondegenerate curve in $\mathbb{R}^n$ for $n\geq 3$. These estimates are new for $n\geq 4$, and we recover an earlier result…

We give a characterization of nearly free plane curves in terms of their global Tjurina numbers, similar to the characterization of free curves as curves with a maximal Tjurina number, due to A. A. du Plessis and C.T.C. Wall. It is also…

Mixed trigonometric-polynomials frequently occur in applications in physics, numerical analysis and engineering, the algorithm has been already proposed to determine its sign on (0,{pi}/2]. This paper proposes a procedure to extend the…

Given a linear equation $\mathcal{L}$, a set $A$ of integers is $\mathcal{L}$-free if $A$ does not contain any `non-trivial' solutions to $\mathcal{L}$. This notion incorporates many central topics in combinatorial number theory such as…
