This work concerns results on conditions guaranteeing that certain banded $M$-matrices have banded inverses. As a first goal, a graph theoretic characterization for an off-diagonal entry of the inverse of an $M$-matrix to be positive, is…

We estalish the conjectures of Sprindzhuk over a local field of positive characteristic using the dynamical method of Kleinbock-Margulis.

We show any subset $A\subset\mathbb{N}$ with positive upper Banach density contains the pattern $\{m,m+[n\alpha],\dots,m+k[n\alpha]\}$, for some $m\in\mathbb{N}$ and $n=p-1$ for some prime $p$, where…

This paper focuses on the metric properties of L\"uroth well approximable numbers, studying analogous of classical results, namely the Khintchine Theorem, the Jarn\'ik--Besicovitch Theorem, and the result of Dodson. A supplementary proof is…

The present paper deals with the discrete inverse problem of reconstructing binary matrices from their row and column sums under additional constraints on the number and pattern of entries in specified minors. While the classical…

An identity is proved connecting two finite sums of inverse tangents. This identity is discretized version of Jacobi's imaginary transformation for the modular angle from the theory of elliptic functions. Some other related identities are…

We develop the methods used by Rudnev and Wheeler to prove an incidence theorem between arbitrary sets of M\"{o}bius transformations and point sets in $\mathbb F_p^2$. We also note some asymmetric incidence results, and give applications of…

We first give a characterization for Mathieu subspaces of univariate polynomial algebras over fields in terms of their radicals. We then deduce that for some classes of classical univariate orthogonal polynomials the Image Conjecture is…

The M\"obius polynomial is an invariant of ranked posets, closely related to the M\"obius function. In this paper, we study the M\"obius polynomial of face posets of convex polytopes. We present formulas for computing the M\"obius…

We revisit the $R-$positivity of nearest neighbors matrices on ${\ZZ_+}$ and the Gibbs measures on the set of nearest neighbors trajectories on ${\ZZ_+}$ whose Hamiltonians award either visits to sites a or visits to edges. We give…

We describe surprising relationships between automorphic forms of various kinds, imaginary quadratic number fields and a certain system of six finite groups that are parameterised naturally by the divisors of twelve. The Mathieu group…

Let $F$ be an infinite field and let $f$ be a nonzero multilinear polynomial with coefficients in $F$. We prove that for every positive integer $d$ there exists a positive integer $s$ such that $f(M_{s}(F))$, the image of $f$ in $M_{s}(F)$,…

Starting from known solutions of the functional Yang-Baxter equations, we exhibit Miura type of transformations leading to various known integrable quad equations. We then construct, from the same list of Yang-Baxter maps, a series of…

Higher-dimensional binary shifts of number-theoretic origin with positive topological entropy are considered. We are particularly interested in analysing their symmetries and extended symmetries. They form groups, known as the topological…

Here, we find all positive integer solutions of the Diophantine equation in the title, where $(\mathcal{U}_n)_{n\geqslant 0}$ is the generalized Lucas sequence $\mathcal{U}_0=0, \ \mathcal{U}_1=1$ and $\mathcal{U}_{n+1}=r \mathcal{U}_n +s…

We refine a result of W.P. Li and Wang on the values of the form $ \lambda_1p_1 + \lambda_2p_2^{2} + \lambda_3p_3^{2} + \mu_1 2^{m_1} +...+ \mu_s 2^{m_s}, $ where $p_1,p_2,p_3$ are prime numbers, $m_1,..., m_s$ are positive integers,…

We give a short proof of the $L^{1}$ criterion for Beurling generalized integers to have a positive asymptotic density. We actually prove the existence of density under a weaker hypothesis. We also discuss related sufficient conditions for…

Given an arbitrary ordered pair of coprime integers (a,b) we obtain a pair of identities of the Rogers--Ramanujan type. These identities have the same product side as the (first) Andrews--Gordon identity for modulus 2ab\pm 1, but an…

We revisit Bressoud's generalized Borwein conjecture. Making use of new positivity-preserving transformations for q-binomial coefficients we establish the truth of infinitely many cases of the Bressoud conjecture. In addition, we prove new…

Let $s_{k}(n)$ denote the sum of digits of an integer $n$ in base $k$. Motivated by certain identities of Nieto, and Bateman and Bradley involving sums of the form $\sum_{i=0}^{2^{n}-1}(-1)^{s_{2}(i)}(x+i)^{m}$ for $m=n$ and $m=n+1$, we…
