Let $\alpha(n)$ denote the number of perfect square permutations in the symmetric group $S_n$. The conjecture $\alpha(2n+1) = (2n+1) \alpha(2n)$, provided by Stanley[4], was proved by Blum[1] using a generating function. This paper presents…
Consider a graph with $n$ vertices where the shortest odd cycle is of length $>2k+1$. We revisit two known results about such graphs: (I) Such a graph is almost bipartite, in the sense that it can be made bipartite by removing from it…
The famous Posa conjecture states that every graph of minimum degree at least 2n/3 contains the square of a Hamilton cycle. This has been proved for large n by Koml\'os, Sark\"ozy and Szemer\'edi. Here we prove that if p > n^{-1/2+\eps},…
Over 300 sequences and many unsolved problems and conjectures related to them are presented herein together with theorems corollaries, formulae, examples, mathematical criteria, etc. (about integer sequences, numbers, quotients, residues,…
In this short note we determine the maximum number, over all $n$-vertex graphs $G$, of orientations of $G$ containing no strongly connected cycle $C_{2k+1}$. This answers a part of a recent question of Araujo, Botler and Mota.
We present a bijection between cyclic permutations of {1,2,...,n+1} and permutations of {1,2,...,n} that preserves the descent set of the first n entries and the set of weak excedances. This non-trivial bijection involves a Foata-like…
Let $f(n,k)$ be the largest number of positive integers not exceeding $n$ from which one cannot select $k+1$ pairwise coprime integers, and let $E(n,k)$ be the set of positive integers which do not exceed $n$ and can be divided by at least…
It is well known that the following Collatz Conjecture is one of the unsolved problems in mathematics. Collatz Conjecture: For any positive integer $n>1$, the following recursive algorithm will convergent to 1 by a finite number of steps.…
The ternary Goldbach conjecture states that every odd number $n\geq 7$ is the sum of three primes. The estimation of the Fourier series $\sum_{p\leq x} e(\alpha p)$ and related sums has been central to the study of the problem since Hardy…
Let $\mathbf{x}=(x_1,\dots,x_n)$ be an $n$-tuple of positive real numbers and the sequence $(x_i)_{i\in\mathbb{Z}}$ be its $n$-periodic extension. Given an $n$-tuple $\mathbf{r}=(r_1,\dots,r_n)$ of positive integers, let $a_i$ be the…
We show that any weighted geometric mean of Chebyshev polynomials is bounded from above by another Chebyshev polynomial. We also study a related homogeneous cyclic inequality $$ \left (\sum_{i=1}^n x_i^{(a+b+1)/2} \right )^2 \geq…
Can you decide if there is a coincidence in the numbers counting two different combinatorial objects? For example, can you decide if two regions in $\mathbb{R}^3$ have the same number of domino tilings? There are two versions of the…
We collect here various conjectures on congruences made by the author in a series of papers, some of which involve binary quadratic forms and other advanced theories. Part A consists of 100 unsolved conjectures of the author while…
We prove that for a generic family of circle diffeomorphisms every parameter value that corresponds to an irrational rotation number is approximated by parameter values for which the diffeomorphisms have arbitrarily large finite numbers of…
In this paper, we study the distribution of the number of occurrences of the simplest frame pattern, called the $\mu$ pattern, in $n$-cycles. Given an $n$-cycle $C$, we say that a pair $\langle i,j \rangle$ matches the $\mu$ pattern if $i <…
The decycling number $\phi(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the smallest number of vertices which can be removed from $G$ so that the resulting graph has no cycles. Bau, Wormald and Zhou conjectured that with probability tending to one the decycling…
A cyclic urn is an urn model for balls of types $0,\ldots,m-1$ where in each draw the ball drawn, say of type $j$, is returned to the urn together with a new ball of type $j+1 \mod m$. The case $m=2$ is the well-known Friedman urn. The…
In 1962 P\'osa conjectured that every graph G on n vertices with minimum degree at least 2n/3 contains the square of a hamiltonian cycle. In 1996 Fan and Kierstead proved the path version of P\'osa's Conjecture. They also proved that it…
We establish new upper bounds for the length of runs of consecutive positive integers each with exactly $k$ divisors, where $k$ is a given positive integer of some special forms. Also we have found exact values of the maximum possible runs…
Motivated by the constructions of binary sequences by utilizing the cyclic elliptic function fields over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{2^{n}}$ by Jin \textit{et al.} in [IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory 71(8), 2025], we extend the construction to…
