In this note, we obtain a classification result for positive solutions to the critical p-Laplace equation in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with $n\ge4$ and $p>p_n$ for some number $p_n\in\left(\frac{n}{3},\frac{n+1}{3}\right)$ such that…

We study the Lagarias inequality, an elementary criterion equivalent to the Riemann Hypothesis. Using a continuous extension of the harmonic numbers, we show that the sequence $B_n=\frac{H_n+e^{H_n}\log(H_n)}{n}$ is strictly increasing for…

We discuss a recursive family of iterative methods for the numerical approximation of roots of nonlinear functions in one variable. These methods are based on Newton-Cotes closed quadrature rules. We prove that when a quadrature rule with…

The van der Laan-Padovan sequence $P_n ~ (n=0, 1, \ldots)$ is defined by $P_0=1, P_1=P_2=0$, and $P_{n+3}=P_{n+1}+P_n$ for $n=0, 1, \ldots$. We determine all pairs $(P_m, P_n)$ satisfying $P_m^b=2^{g_1} 3^{g_2} 5^{g_3} 7^{g_4} P_n^a$ for…

Originally, Tur\'{a}n's inequality states that if $(P_n(x))_{n\in\mathbb{N}_0}$ is the sequence of Legendre polynomials, then $\Delta_n(x):=P_n^2(x)-P_{n+1}(x)P_{n-1}(x)\geq0$ for all $n\in\mathbb{N}$ and $x\in[-1,1]$. Gasper specified the…

It is well-known that for any non-constant polynomial $P$ with integer coefficients the sequence $(P(n))_{ n\in \mathbb N}$ has the property that there are infinitely many prime numbers dividing at least one term of this sequence.…

Let $\Pi_n$ be the class of algebraic polynomials $P$ of degree $n$, all of whose zeros lie on the segment $[-1,1]$. In 1995, S.P. Zhou has proved the following Tur\'{a}n type reverse Markov-Nikol'skii inequality: $\|P'\|_{L_p[-1,1]}>c\,…
