The explicit expressions of the representation functions (D-functions) for Jordanian quantum group SL_h(2) are obtained by combination of tensor operator technique and Drinfeld twist. It is shown that the D-functions can be expressed in…
The partial Stirling numbers T_n(k) used here are defined as the sum over odd values of i of (n choose i) i^k. Their 2-exponents nu(T_n(k)) are important in algebraic topology. We provide many specific results, applying to all values of n,…
We investigate a variation of Nicomachus's identity in which one term in the cubic sum is replaced by a different cube. Specifically, we study the Diophantine identity \[ \sum_{j=1}^{n} j^3 + x^3 - k^3 = \left( \sum_{j=1}^{n} j + x - k…
In this article, we investigate differential operators on the Siegel-Jacobi space that are invariant under the natural action of the Jacobi group. These invariant differential operators play an important role in the arithmetic theory of…
Let $\varphi(\tau)=\eta((\tau+1)/2)^2/\sqrt{2\pi}e^\frac{\pi i}{4}\eta(\tau+1)$ where $\eta(\tau)$ is the Dedekind eta-function. We show that if $\tau_0$ is an imaginary quadratic number with $\mathrm{Im}(\tau_0)>0$ and $m$ is an odd…
Let $\mathscr{R}$ be a finite von Neumann algebra with a faithful tracial state $\tau $ and let $\Delta$ denote the associated Fuglede-Kadison determinant. In this paper, we characterize all unital bijective maps $\phi$ on the set of…
Finding the mean square averages of the Dirichlet $L$-functions over Dirichlet characters $\chi$ of same parity is an active problem in number theory. Here we explicitly evaluate such averages of $L(3,\chi)$ and $L(4,\chi)$ using certain…
For a real number $t$, let $r_\ell(t)$ be the total weight of all $t$-large Schr\"{o}der paths of length $\ell$, and $s_\ell(t)$ be the total weight of all $t$-small Schr\"{o}der paths of length $\ell$. For constants $\alpha, \beta$, in…
We show that for a Jacobi operator with coefficients whose (j+1)'th moments are summable the j'th derivative of the scattering matrix is in the Wiener algebra of functions with summable Fourier coefficients. We use this result to improve…
Using recurrence matrices, defined and described with some details, we study a few determinants related to evaluations of binomial coefficients on Dirichlet characters modulo 2, 4 and 8.
We compute the ring of non-induced representations for a cyclic group, $C_n$, over an arbitrary field and show that it has rank $\varphi(n)$, where $\varphi$ is Euler's totient function - independent of the characteristic of the field.…
Let $F$ be a binary form with integer coefficients, non-zero discriminant and degree $d \geq 3$. Let $R_F(Z)$ denote the number of integers of absolute value at most $Z$ which are represented by $F$. In 2019 Stewart and Xiao proved that…
For a Jacobi matrix J on l^2(Z_+) with Ju(n)=a_{n-1} u(n-1) + b_n u(n) + a_n u(n+1), we prove that \sum_{|E|>2} (E^2 -4)^{1/2} \leq \sum_n |b_n| + 4\sum_n |a_n -1|. We also prove bounds on higher moments and some related results in higher…
We present an efficient endomorphism for the Jacobian of a curve $C$ of genus 2 (hyperelliptic) for divisors having a Non disjoint support. This extends the work of Costello and Lauter in [12] who calculated explicit formulae for divisor…
To each associative unitary finite-dimensional algebra over a normal base, we associative a canonical multiplicative function called its determinant. We give various properties of this construction, as well as applications to the topology…
The divisor function $\sigma(n)$ denotes the sum of the divisors of the positive integer $n$. For a prime $p$ and $m \in \mathbb{N}$, the $p$-adic valuation of $m$ is the highest power of $p$ which divides $m$. Formulas for…
The Menon-Sury's identity is as follows: \begin{equation*} \sum_{\substack{1 \leq a, b_1, b_2, \ldots, b_r \leq n\\\mathrm{gcd}(a,n)=1}} \mathrm{gcd}(a-1,b_1, b_2, \ldots, b_r,n)=\varphi(n) \sigma_r(n), \end{equation*} where $\varphi$ is…
We obtain an upper bound for the sum $\sum_{n\leq N} (a_{n}/\varphi (a_{n}))^{s}$, where $\varphi$ is Euler's totient function, $s\in \mathbb{N}$, and $a_{1},\ldots, a_{N}$ are positive integers (not necessarily distinct) with some…
Consider the $2n$-by-$2n$ matrix $M=(m_{i,j})_{i,j=1}^{2n}$ with $m_{i,j} = 1$ for $i,j$ satisfying $|2i-2n-1|+|2j-2n-1| \leq 2n$ and $m_{i,j} = 0$ for all other $i,j$, consisting of a central diamond of 1's surrounded by 0's. When $n \geq…
For a long time it has been a challenging goal to identify all orthogonal polynomial systems that occur as eigenfunctions of a linear differential equation. One of the widest classes of such eigenfunctions known so far, is given by…
