In this work, the authors provide closed forms and recurrence expressions for computing the $k$th power of the formal power series, some of them in terms of a determinant of some matrices. As a consequence, we obtain the reciprocal of the…

We generalize the theory of Contou-Carr\`ere symbols to higher dimensions. To an $(n+1)$-tuple $f_0,\dots,f_n \in A((t_1))\cdots((t_n))^{\times}$, where $A$ denotes a commutative algebra over a field $k$, we associate an element…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic $p$ and let $\mathbb{G}_a$ denote the additive group of $k$. Let $n \geq 1$ and let ${\rm Mat}(n, k[T])^E$ denote the set of all exponential matrices of ${\rm Mat}(n,…

We study recurrence, and multiple recurrence, properties along the $k$-th powers of a given set of integers. We show that the property of recurrence for some given values of $k$ does not give any constraint on the recurrence for the other…

The generalized Euler number E_{n|k} counts the number of permutations of {1,2,...,n} which have a descent in position m if and only if m is divisible by k. The classical Euler numbers are the special case when k=2. In this paper, we study…

Let $A$ be an $n\times n$ matrix and let $\vee^k A$ be its $k$-th symmetric tensor product. We express the normalized trace of $\vee^k A$ as an integral of the $k$-th powers of the numerical values of $A$ over the unit sphere…

We introduce and study the arithmetic function E_m(n), defined as the sum of the remainders of n when divided by the first m positive integers. Although the definition is elementary, the function encodes rich arithmetic structure. In this…

We associate to a full flag $\mathcal{F}$ in an $n$-dimensional variety $X$ over a field $k$, a "symbol map" $\mu_{\mathcal{F}}:K(F_X) \to \Sigma^n K(k)$. Here, $F_X$ is the field of rational functions on $X$, and $K(\cdot)$ is the…
