We propose a geometric approach for the numerical integration of singular initial value problems for (systems of) quasi-linear differential equations. It transforms the original problem into the problem of computing the unstable manifold at…

For a prime $p$ and an absolutely irreducible modulo $p$ polynomial $f(U,V) \in \Z[U,V]$ we obtain an asymptotic formulas for the number of solutions to the congruence $f(x,y) \equiv a \pmod p$ in positive integers $x \le X$, $y \le Y$,…

The aim of this paper is to study the singular solutions to fractional elliptic equations with absorption $$ \left\{\arraycolsep=1pt \begin{array}{lll} (-\Delta)^\alpha u+|u|^{p-1}u=0,\quad & \rm{in}\quad\Omega\setminus\{0\},\\[2mm]…

A set of positive integers is primitive (or 1-primitive) if no member divides another. Erd\H{o}s proved in 1935 that the weighted sum $\sum1/(n \log n)$ for $n$ ranging over a primitive set $A$ is universally bounded over all choices for…

Primitive roots of 1 mod p^k (k>2 and odd prime p) are sought, in cyclic units group G_k = A_k B_k mod p^k, coprime to p, of order (p-1)p^{k-1}. 'Core' subgroup A_k has order p-1 independent of k, and p+1 generates 'extension' subgroup B_k…

A method, recently advanced as the conformable Euler method, a general method for the finite difference discretization of fractional initial value problems for fractions in (0, 1], is shown to be valid only for the integer derivative. The…

This note generalizes the Fibonacci primitive roots to the set of integers. An asymptotic formula for counting the number of integers with such primitive root is introduced here.

We introduce a natural definition for sums of the form \[ \sum_{\nu=1}^x f(\nu) \] when the number of terms x is a rather arbitrary real or even complex number. The resulting theory includes the known interpolation of the factorial by the…

We will be presenting two theorems in this paper. The first theorem, which is a new result, is about the non-existence of integer solutions of the cubic diophantine equation. In the proof of this theorem we have used some known results from…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field of $q$ elements, and let $k\mid q-1$ be a positive integer. Let $f(x)=ax^2+bx+c$ be a quadratic polynomial in $\mathbb{F}_q[x]$ with $b^2-4ac\ne0$. In this paper, we show that if…

We study existence of nontrivial solutions to problem \begin{equation*} \left\lbrace \begin{array}{rcll} -\Delta u &=& \lambda u+f(u)&\text{ in }\Omega,\\ u&=&0&\text{ on }\partial \Omega, \end{array}\right. \end{equation*} where $\Omega…

A new method for the solution of initial-boundary value problems for evolution PDEs recently introduced by Fokas is generalised to multidimensions. Also the relation of this method with the method of images and with the classical integral…

The three dimensional primitive equations with full viscosity are considered in a horizontally periodic box $\Omega$, which are subject to either the homogeneous Neumann or Dirichlet conditions on the upper and bottom parts of the boundary.…

For any positive integer $n$, let $f(n)$ denote the number of solutions to the Diophantine equation $\frac{4}{n} = \frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{y} + \frac{1}{z}$ with $x,y,z$ positive integers. The \emph{Erd\H{o}s-Straus conjecture} asserts that…

The aim of this paper is to try to establish a generic model for the problem that several multivariable number-theoretic functions represent simultaneously primes for infinitely many integral points. More concretely, we introduced briefly…

Let $F \in \mathbb Z[x, y]$ be an irreducible binary form of degree $d \geq 7$ and content one. Let $\alpha$ be a root of $F(x, 1)$ and assume that the field extension $\mathbb Q(\alpha)/\mathbb Q$ is Galois. We prove that, for every…

We determine primitive solutions to the equation $(x-r)^2 + x^2 + (x+r)^2 = y^n$ for $1 \le r \le 5,000$, making use of a factorization argument and the Primitive Divisors Theorem due to Bilu, Hanrot and Voutier.

We look at upper bounds for the count of certain primes related to the Fermat numbers $F_n=2^{2^n}+1$ called elite primes. We first note an oversight in a result of Krizek, Luca and Somer and give the corrected, slightly weaker upper bound.…

We provide several extensions of the modular method which were motivated by the problem of completing previous work to prove that, for any integer $n \geq 2$, the equation \[ x^{13} + y^{13} = 3 z^n \] has no non-trivial solutions. In…
