In this paper, we find an elementary approach for double sums where the inner sum is binomial but incomplete. We apply our core identity and its relatives to double sums involving famous numbers such as harmonic numbers, Fibonacci numbers,…
Motivated by partition regularity problems of homogeneous quadratic equations, we prove multiple recurrence and convergence results for multiplicative measure preserving actions with iterates given by rational sequences involving…
Two-term recurrence relations are supplied for indefinite integrals of functions that involve factors of the types ${P_2}^n$, ${P_3}^n$, ${P_4}^n$, ${P_1}^m {Q_1}^n$, $E_1 {P_1}^n$, ${P_1}^m {Q_2}^n$, $E_1 {P_2}^n$, ${P_2}^m {Q_2}^n$,…
We prove that the Veronese embedding of P^n of degree d with n\ge 2, d\ge 3 does not satisfy property N_p (according to Green and Lazarsfeld) if p\ge 3d-2. We conjecture that the converse holds. This is true for n=2 and for n=d=3.
We prove that the sumset {p^2+b^2+2^n: p is prime and b,n\in N} has positive lower density. We also construct a residue class with odd modulo, which contains no integer of the form p^2+b^2+2^n. And similar results are established for the…
In this paper, we first show that homogeneous Keller maps are injective on lines through the origin. We subsequently formulate a generalization, which is that under some conditions, a polynomial endomorphism with $r$ homogeneous parts of…
We prove that integer programming with three quantifier alternations is $NP$-complete, even for a fixed number of variables. This complements earlier results by Lenstra and Kannan, which together say that integer programming with at most…
Let $\pi$ be an automorphism of the Turing degrees induces by a homeomorphism $\varphi$ of the Cantor space $2^\omega$ such that $\varphi$ preserves all Bernoulli measures. It is proved that $\pi$ must be trivial. In particular, a…
We study the recurrence coefficients of the monic polynomials $P_n(z)$ orthogonal with respect to the deformed (also called semi-classical) Freud weight \begin{equation*} w_{\alpha}(x;s,N)=|x|^{\alpha}{\rm…
The construction of Superintegrable models with rotational symmetry and two integrals of any integer degree greater than 3 was completed in [9] only for the so called simple case. It is extended here to a more general situation and several…
We introduce some (p,q)-deformations of the weight multiplicities for the representations of any simple Lie algebra g over the complex numbers. This is done by associating the indeterminate q to the positive roots of a parabolic subsystem…
We show that polynomial recursions $x_{n+1}=x_{n}^{m}-k$ where $k,m$ are integers and $m$ is positive have no nontrivial periodic integral orbits for $m\geq3$. If $m=2$ then the recursion has integral two-cycles for infinitely many values…
We show that there are polynomials $p_N$ of arbitrarily large degree $N$, with coefficients equal to 0 or 1 (Newman polynomials), such that $$ \liminf_{N \to \infty} N \Linf{p_N^2} \bigl / p_N^2(1) < 1, $$ where $\Linf{q}$ denotes the…
We prove that for any fixed integer \( n \geq 3 \) and nonzero integer \( m \), the proportion of integral binary forms of degree \( n \) that represent \( m \) tends to zero as the height tends to infinity. In fact, almost all such forms…
Let $ a_1(x)p_1(x)^n + \cdots + a_k(x)p_k(x)^n $ as well as $ b_1(x)q_1(x)^m + \cdots + b_l(x) q_l(x)^m $ be two polynomial power sums where the complex polynomials $ p_i(x) $ and $ q_j(x) $ are all non-constant. Then in the present paper…
We establish the existence of infinitely many \emph{polynomial} progressions in the primes; more precisely, given any integer-valued polynomials $P_1, >..., P_k \in \Z[\m]$ in one unknown $\m$ with $P_1(0) = ... = P_k(0) = 0$ and any $\eps…
In this note we show that a bounded degree planar triangulation is recurrent if and only if the set of accumulation points of some/any circle packing of it is polar (that is, planar Brownian motion avoids it with probability 1). This…
Let $(x_n)_{n\geq0}$ be a linear recurrence sequence of order $k\geq2$ satisfying $$x_n=a_1x_{n-1}+a_2x_{n-2}+\dots+a_kx_{n-k}$$ for all integers $n\geq k$, where $a_1,\dots,a_k,x_0,\dots, x_{k-1}\in \mathbb{Z},$ with $a_k\neq0$. In 2017,…
We consider the following polynomial generalization of Stern's diatomic series: let $s_1(x,y)=1$, and for $n\geq 1$ set $s_{2n}(x,y)=s_n(x,y)$ and $s_{2n+1}(x,y)=x\,s_n(x,y)+y\,s_{n+1}(x,y)$. The coefficient $[x^iy^j]s_n(x,y)$ is the number…
We describe all of the irreducible polynomial $\mathbb{F}_p\mathrm{SL}_2(p^r)$ representations which lift to $(\mathbb{Z}/p^s\mathbb{Z})\mathrm{SL}_2(p^r)$ representations for $s>1$, observing that they almost never do. We also show that…
