Given a prime number $p$, a field $F$ with $\operatorname{char}(F)=p$ and a positive integer $n$, we study the class-preserving modifications of Kato-Milne classes of decomposable differential forms. These modifications demonstrate a…

It is shown that two vectors with coordinates in the finite $q$-element field of characteristic $p$ belong to the same orbit under the natural action of the symmetric group if each of the elementary symmetric polynomials of degree…

This paper delves into vector and matrix norms of Fibonacci numbers. Two classes of Fibonacci vectors and a parametric p-norm are defined. From this definition, several properties of Fibonacci vector and matrix p-norms are described by…

We introduce a kind of $(p, q, t)$-Catalan numbers of Type A by generalizing the Jacobian type continued fraction formula, we proved that the corresponding expansions could be expressed by the polynomials counting permutations on…

In this paper we study analytically a simple one dimensional model of mass transport. We introduce a parameter $p$ that interpolates between continuous time dynamics ($p\to 0$ limit) and discrete parallel update dynamics ($p=1$). For each…

Let $p$ and $q$ be polynomials with degree $2$ over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$. In the first part of this article, we characterize the matrices that can be decomposed as $A+B$ for some pair $(A,B)$ of square matrices such that $p(A)=0$…

This paper tells the story how a MAPLE-assisted quest for an interesting undergraduate problem in trigonometric series led some "amateurs" to the discovery that the one-parameter family of deterministic trigonometric series $\pzcS_p:…

Let $\{f_n\}$ be the Franel numbers given by $f_n=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom nk^3$, and let $p>5$ be a prime. In this paper we mainly determine $\sum_{k=0}^{p-1} \binom{2k}k\frac{f_k}{m^k}\pmod p$ for $m=5,-16,16,32,-49,50,96$. Let…

Let $p$ be a given modulus, let $u$ be prime to $p$, and consider the linear permutation $u\cdot n\pmod p$ of the residue system modulo $p$. Writing $\langle x\rangle_p$ to denote the least nonnegative residue of $x$ modulo $p$, we say that…

We prove local Lipschitz regularity for bounded minimizers of functionals with nonstandard $p,q$-growth with the source term in the Lorentz space $L(N,1)$ under the restriction $q<p+1+p\,\min\left\{\frac 1N,\frac{2(p-1)}{Np-2p+2}\right\}$.…

Given two sets $x_1^{(1)},\ldots,x_{n_1}^{(1)}$ and $x_1^{(2)},\ldots,x_{n_2}^{(2)}\in\mathbb{R}^p$ (or $\mathbb{C}^p$) of random vectors with zero mean and positive definite covariance matrices $C_1$ and $C_2\in\mathbb{R}^{p\times p}$ (or…

Given an elliptic curve E/Q and a prime p at which E has good reduction, let e_p be the exponent of the group E_p(F_p) of F_p-rational points on the reduction of E modulo p. Under the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH) for the Dedekind…

We study the question of identity testing for structured distributions. More precisely, given samples from a {\em structured} distribution $q$ over $[n]$ and an explicit distribution $p$ over $[n]$, we wish to distinguish whether $q=p$…

Let E be a non-CM elliptic curve defined over Q. For each prime p of good reduction, E reduces to a curve E_p over the finite field F_p. For a given squarefree polynomial f(x,y), we examine the sequences f_p(E) := f(a_p(E), p), whose values…

We consider the continuous superposition of operators of the form \[ \iint_{[0, 1]\times (1, N)} (-\Delta)_p^s \,u\,d\mu(s,p), \] where $\mu$ denotes a signed measure over the set $[0, 1]\times (1, N)$, joined to a nonlinearity satisfying a…

We investigate when the sequence of binomial coefficients \binom{k}{i} modulo a prime p, for a fixed positive integer k, satisfies a linear recurrence relation of (positive) degree h in the finite range 0\le i\le k. In particular, we prove…

We revisit the problem of finding the probability distribution of a fermionic number of one-dimensional spinless free fermions on a segment of a given length. The generating function for this probability distribution can be expressed as a…

We establish a new asymptotic formula for the number of polynomials of degree $n$ with $k$ prime factors over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. The error term tends to $0$ uniformly in $n$ and in $q$, and $k$ can grow beyond $\log n$.…

We derive $p$-adic expansions for the generalized Harmonic numbers $H^{(j)}_{p-1}$ and $H^{(j)}_{\frac{p-1}{2}}$ involving the Bernoulli numbers $B_j$ and the the base-2 Fermat quotient $q_p$. While most of our results are not new, we…
