The main purpose of this paper is to prove that the positive real numbers can be decomposed into finitely many disjoint pieces which are also closed under addition and multiplication. As a byproduct of the argument we determine all the…
In this paper we associate with an infinite family of real extended functions defined on a locally convex space, a sum, called robust sum, which is always well-defined. We also associate with that family of functions a dual pair of problems…
Let $M$ be an ANR space and $X$ be a homotopy dense subspace in $M$. Assume that $M$ admits a continuous binary operation $*:M\times M\to M$ such that for every $x,y\in M$ the inclusion $x*y\in X$ holds if and only if $x,y\in X$. Assume…
A pair $(a, b)$ of positive integers is a pythagorean pair if $a^2 + b^2$ is a square. A pythagorean pair $(a, b)$ is called a pythapotent pair of degree $h$ if there is another pythagorean pair $(k,l)$, which is not a multiple of $(a,b)$,…
In this paper, we solve the simultaneous Diophantine equations m.(x_1^k+....+x_{t_1}^k)=n.(y_1^k+....+y_{t_2}^k); k=1,3, where t_1, t_2>3, and m, n are fixed arbitrary and relatively prime positive integers. This is done by choosing two…

We consider Diophantine equations of the shape $ f(x) = g(y) $, where the polynomials $ f $ and $ g $ are elements of power sums. Using a finiteness criterion of Bilu and Tichy, we will prove that under suitable assumptions infinitely many…
Let $G$ be a group. The subsets $A_1,\ldots,A_k$ of $G$ form a complete factorization of group $G$ if if they are pairwise disjoint and each element $g\in G$ is uniquely represented as $g=a_1\ldots a_k$, with $a_i\in A_i$. We prove the…
The aim of this article is to show the existence, and also give an explicit construction, of infinite sets of orthogonal exponentials for certain families of convex polytopes which include simple-rational polytopes and also non simple…
In this paper, we study properties of the Diophantine exponents $w_n$ and $w_n^{*}$ for Laurent series over a finite field. We prove that for an integer $n\geq 1$ and a rational number $w>2n-1$, there exist a strictly increasing sequence of…
For every positive integer $n$, an infinite family of positive integral solutions of the diophantine equation $x^n - y^n = z^{n+1}$ is constructed.
In an earlier paper by three of the present authors and Csaba Schneider, it was shown that, for $m\ge2$, a set of $m+1$ partitions of a set $\Omega$, any $m$ of which are the minimal non-trivial elements of a Cartesian lattice, either form…
We introduce and study some families of groups whose irreducible characters take values on quadratic extensions of the rationals. We focus mostly on a generalization of inverse semi-rational groups, which we call uniformly semi-rational…
We show that there is a strong minimal pair in the computably enumerable Turing degrees.
This article is devoted to the number of non-negative solutions of the linear Diophantine equation $$ a_1t_1+a_2t_2+... a_nt_n=d, $$ where $a_1, ..., a_n$, and $d$ are positive integers. We obtain a relation between the number of solutions…
Let $q$ be a perfect power of a prime number $p$ and $E({\mathbb F}_q)$ be an elliptic curve over ${\mathbb F}_q$ given by the equation $y^2=x^3+Ax+B$. For a positive integer $n$ we denote by $ \# E({\mathbb F}_{q^n})$ the number of…
We prove that a finite group is rational if and only if it has a set of permutation characters which separate conjugacy classes. It follows from this that a finite group is rational if and only if it has a representation as a permutation…
Let $X \subset \mathbb{P}^n$ be a general Fano complete intersection of type $(d_1,\dots, d_k)$. If at least one $d_i$ is greater than $2$, we show that $X$ contains rational curves of degree $e \leq n$ with balanced normal bundle. If all…
We give a concrete characterization of the rational conjugacy classes of maximal tori in groups of type $D_n$, with specific emphasis on the case of number fields and p-adic fields. This includes the forms associated to quadratic spaces,…
By examining the 3 surface angles which exist at any of the 8 vertices of a Diophantine parallelepiped, and classifying them by the appearance of a right angle, it is discovered that 5 unique classes of Diophantine parallelepipeds exist. It…
