A positive integer $n$ is said to be a Zumkeller number or an integer-perfect number if the set of its positive divisors can be partitioned into two subsets of equal sums. In this paper, we prove several results regarding Zumkeller numbers.…

For a $p$-adic curve $X$, we study conditions under which all classes in the $n$-torsion of $Br(X)$ are $\mathbb{Z}/n$-cyclic. We show that in general not all classes are $\mathbb{Z}/n$-cyclic classes. On the other hand, if $X$ has good…

We obtain a complete description of the integer group determinants for SmallGroup(16,13), the central product of the dihedral group of order eight and cyclic group of order four. These values are the same as the integer group determinants…

Cyclic codes are a subclass of linear codes and have applications in consumer electronics, data storage systems and communication systems as they have efficient encoding and decoding algorithms. In this paper, we settle an open problem…

In this paper, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a cyclic $m$-cycle system of $K_n-I$ when $m$ and $n$ are even and $m \mid n$.

Let $D$ be an odd square-free positive integer and $C$ a divisor of $D$. For any quadratic character $\chi$ modulo $C$, we prove that the $\chi$-part of the group $J_0(DC)_\text{tor}$ of torsion points of $J_0(DC)$ coincides with the…

In this note we prove: {\it Let $D$ be a 2-strong digraph of order $n$ such that its $n-1$ vertices have degrees at least $n+k$ and the remaining vertex $z$ has degree at least $n-k-4$, where $k$ is a positive integer. If $D$ contains a…

Given a finite group $G$ of order $p^nm$, where $p$ is a prime and $p\nmid m$, we denote by $\psi_p(G)$ the sum of orders of $p$-parts of elements in $G$. In the current note, we prove that $\psi_p(G)\leq\psi_p(C_{p^nm})$, where $C_{p^nm}$…

Let $d>1$ be an integer and $K_0$ a perfect field such that $char(K_0)$ does not divide $d$. Let $n>d$ be an integer that is prime to $d$. Let $f(x)\in K_0[x]$ be a degree $n$ monic polynomial without repeated roots, and $\mathcal{C}_{f,d}$…

Let $m\geq 3$ be an odd integer and $p$ be an odd prime. % with $p-1=2^rh$, where $h$ is an odd integer. In this paper, many classes of three-weight cyclic codes over $\mathbb{F}_{p}$ are presented via an examination of the condition for…

Cyclic metric Lie groups are Lie groups equipped with a left-invariant metric which is in some way far from being biinvariant, in a sense made explicit in terms of Tricerri and Vanhecke's homogeneous structures. The semisimple and solvable…

According to Li, Nicholson and Zan, a group $G$ is said to be morphic if, for every pair $N_{1}, N_{2}$ of normal subgroups, each of the conditions $G/N_{1} \cong N_{2}$ and $G/N_{2} \cong N_{1}$ implies the other. Finite, homocyclic…

A group $G$ is called logically cyclic, if it contains an element $s$ such that every element of $G$ can be defined by a first order formula with parameter $s$. The aim of this paper is to investigate the structure of such groups.

We determine precisely when the branching coefficients arising from the restriction of irreducible representations of the symmetric group $S_n$ to the dihedral subgroup $D_n$ are nonzero, and we establish uniform linear lower bounds outside…

In this paper, we first obtain some analogues of a formula of Zagier (1995) and Stanley (2011). For instance, we prove that the number of pairs of $n$-cycles whose product has $k$ cycles and has $m$ given elements contained in distinct…

Erd\H{o}s and Hall defined a pair $(m, n)$ of positive integers to be interlocking, if between any pair of consecutive divisors (both larger than $1$) of $n$ (resp. $m$) there is a divisor of $m$ (resp. $n$). A positive integer is said to…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$. Let $D$ be a $p$-divisible group over $k$. Let $n_D$ be the smallest non-negative integer for which the following statement holds: if $C$ is a $p$-divisible group over $k$ of…

Circular external difference families (CEDFs) are a recently-introduced variation of external difference families with applications to non-malleable threshold schemes: a $(v,m,\ell,1)$-CEDF is an $m$-sequence $(A_0, \ldots, A_{m-1})$ of…

Let D be an acyclic orientation of a simple graph G. An arc of D is called dependent if its reversal creates a directed cycle. Let d(D) denote the number of dependent arcs in D. Define m and M to be the minimum and the maximum number of…

The notion of active sum provides an analogue for groups of that of direct sum for abelian groups. One natural question then is which groups are the active sum of cyclic subgroups. Many groups have been found to give a positive answer to…
