We make many new observations on primitive roots modulo primes. For an odd prime $p$ and an integer $c$, we establish a theorem concerning $\sum_g(\frac{g+c}p)$, where $g$ runs over all the primitive roots modulo $p$ among $1,\ldots,p-1$,…

In this paper, we prove the local converse theorem for $\textrm{Sp}_{2r}(F)$ over a $p$-adic field $F$. More precisely, given two irreducible supercuspidal representations of $\textrm{Sp}_{2r}(F)$ with the same central character such that…

We introduce a natural definition for sums of the form \[ \sum_{\nu=1}^x f(\nu) \] when the number of terms x is a rather arbitrary real or even complex number. The resulting theory includes the known interpolation of the factorial by the…

We first prove that the Legendre transform is the only continuous and $\mathrm{SL}(n)$ contravariant valuation that behaves as a conjugation of two important translations on super-coercive, lower semi-continuous, and convex functions. Then…

Let $G$ be a transitive permutation group on $\Omega$ containing two points $\alpha, \beta$ such that $G_{\alpha}\cap G_{\beta}=1$. The Saxl graph $\Sigma(G)$ of $(G, \Omega)$ is defined as the graph with vertex set $\Omega$, where two…

The notion of the H\"older convolution is introduced. The main result is that, under general conditions on functions L_1, ..., L_n, the function inverse to the Legendre--Fenchel transform of the H\"older convolution of L_1, ..., L_n…

Product-to-sum identities for trigonometric functions play a fundamental role in function theory and numerous applications. In this spirit, we present convolution-to-sum identities for Mittag-Leffler type functions. Using a Laplace domain…

A series of conjectures is obtained as further investigation of the integral transformation I(alpha) introduced in the previous paper. A Macdonald-type difference operator D is introduced. It is conjectured that D and I(alpha) are…

Let $p>3$ be a prime. We investigate Legendre symbol of $\displaystyle \prod_{0<i<j<p/2 \atop p\nmid f(i,j) } f(i,j) \ $, where $i,j\in \Bbb Z, f(i,j)$ is a linear or quadratic form with integer coefficients. When $f=ai^2+bij+cj^2$ and…

In this paper, motivated by the work of Chapman, Vsemirnov and Sun et al., we investigate some arithmetic properties of the generalized Legendre matrices over finite fields. For example, letting $a_1,\cdots,a_{(q-1)/2}$ be all non-zero…

We expand on the remark by Andrews on the importance of infinite sums and products in combinatorics. Let $\{g_d(n)\}_{d\geq 0,n \geq 1}$ be the double sequences $\sigma_d(n)= \sum_{\ell \mid n} \ell^d$ or $\psi_d(n)= n^d$. We associate…
