The classical theory of continued fractions has been widely studied for centuries for its important properties of good approximation, and more recently it has been generalized to $p$-adic numbers where it presents many differences with…

Fix a finite collection of primes $\{ p_j \}$, not containing $2$ or $3$. Using some observations which arose from attempts to solve the SIC-POVMs problem in quantum information, we give a simple methodology for constructing an infinite…

It has been a well-known fact since Euclid's time that there exist infinitely many rational primes. Two natural questions arise: In which other rings, sufficiently similar to the integers, are there infinitely many irreducible elements? Is…

For any three element set of positive integers, $\{a,b,n\}$, with $a<b<n$, $n$ sufficiently large and $\gcd(a,b)=1$, we find the least $\alpha$ such that given any real numbers $t_1$, $t_2$, $t_3$, there is a real number $x$ such that…

First some old as well as new results about P.I. algebras, Ore extensions, and degrees are presented. Then quantized $n\times r$ matrices as well as quantized factor algebras of $M_q(n)$ are analyzed. The latter are the quantized function…

We consider the problem of approaching real numbers with rational numbers with prime denominator and with a single numerator allowed for each denominator. We obtain basic results, both probabilistic and deterministic, draw connections to…

It is conjectured that there is a converging sequence of some generalized Fibonacci ratios, given the difference between consecutive ratios, such as the Golden Ratio, $\varphi^1$, and the next golden ratio $\varphi^2$. Moreover, the graphic…

Given a conic $\mathcal{C}$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, it is natural to ask what real points on $\mathcal{C}$ are most difficult to approximate by rational points of low height. For the analogous problem on the real line (for which the least…

In the present work, we investigate real numbers whose sequence of partial quotients enjoys some combinatorial properties involving the notion of palindrome. We provide three new transendence criteria, that apply to a broad class of…

Let $M_{d,n}(q)$ denote the number of monic irreducible polynomials in $\mathbb{F}_q[x_1, x_2, \ldots , x_n]$ of degree $d$. We show that for a fixed degree $d$, the sequence $M_{d,n}(q)$ converges $q$-adically to an explicitly determined…

Let $n,p,k$ be three positive integers. We prove that the rational fractions of $q$: $${n \brack k}_{q} {}_3\phi_{2} [ . {matrix}q^{1-k},q^{-p},q^{p-n} q,q^{1-n} {matrix}| q;q^{k+1}]\quad\textrm{and}\quad q^{(n-p)p}\qbi{n}{k}{q} {}_3\phi_2[…

Let $q\geqslant 2$ be a fixed prime power. We prove an asymptotic formula for counting the number of monic polynomials that are of degree $n$ and have exactly $k$ irreducible factors over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. We also compare our…

Let $n$ and $k$ be positive integers, and let $F$ be an alphabet of size $n$. A sequence over $F$ of length $m$ is a \emph{$k$-radius sequence} if any two distinct elements of $F$ occur within distance $k$ of each other somewhere in the…

The Euler--Kronecker constant of a number field $K$ is the ratio of the constant and the residue of the Laurent series of the Dedekind zeta function $\zeta_K(s)$ at $s=1$. We study the distribution of the Euler--Kronecker constant…

Diophantine approximation is the problem of approximating a real number by rational numbers. We propose a version of this in which the numerators are approximately related to the denominators by a Laurent polynomial. Our definition is…

We study the set of algebraic objects known as vanishing polynomials (the set of polynomials that annihilate all elements of a ring) over general commutative rings with identity. These objects are of special interest due to their close…

We give enumerative interpretations of the polynomials arising as numerators and denominators of the $q$-deformed rational numbers introduced by Morier-Genoud and Ovsienko. The considered polynomials are quantum analogues of the classical…

For a prime ideal $\mathfrak{P}$ of the ring of integers of a number field $K$, we give a general definition of $\mathfrak{P}$-adic continued fraction, which also includes classical definitions of continued fractions in the field of…

By Kolmogorov Complexity,two number-theoretic problems are solved in different way than before,one problem is Maxim Kontsevich and Don Bernard Zagier's Problem 3 \emph{Exhibit at least one number which does not belong to} $ \mathcal{P}$…

Given a number field $K$ that is a subfield of the real numbers, we generalize the notion of the classical Frobenius problem to the ring of integers $\mathfrak{O}_K$ of $K$ by describing certain Frobenius semigroups,…
