An integer of the form $P_m(x)= \frac{(m-2)x^2-(m-4)x}{2}$ for an integer $x$, is called a generalized $m$-gonal number. For positive integers $\alpha_1,\dots,\alpha_u$ and $\beta_1,\dots,\beta_v$, a mixed sum…

In a perfect category every object has a minimal projective resolution. We give a criterion for the category of modules over a categorygraded algebra to be perfect.

Let $S= \{ p_1, \ldots, p_s\}$ be a finite, non-empty set of distinct prime numbers and $(U_{n})_{n \geq 0}$ be a linear recurrence sequence of integers of order $r$. For any positive integer $k,$ we define $(U_j^{(k)})_{j\geq 1}$ an…

We extend the sum-of-divisors function to the complex plane via the Gaussian integers. Then we prove a modified form of Euler's classification of odd perfect numbers.

For an arbitrary integer $x$, an integer of the form $T(x)\!=\!\frac{x^2+x}{2}$ is called a triangular number. Let $\alpha_1,\dots,\alpha_k$ be positive integers. A sum $\Delta_{\alpha_1,\dots,\alpha_k}(x_1,\dots,x_k)=\alpha_1…

A set S of integers is said to be multiplicative if for every pair m and n of coprime integers we have that mn is in S iff both m and n are in S. Both Landau and Ramanujan gave approximations to S(x), the number of n<=x that are in S, for…

This study investigates the existence of tuples $(k, \ell, m)$ of integers such that all of $k$, $\ell$, $m$, $k+\ell$, $\ell+m$, $m+k$, $k+\ell+m$ belong to $S(\alpha)$, where $S(\alpha)$ is the set of all integers of the form $\lfloor…

We shall give some results for an integer divisible by its unitary totient.

Some new results concerning the equation $\sigma(N)=aM, \sigma(M)=bN$ are proved. As a corollary, there are only finitely many odd superperfect numbers with a fixed number of distinct prime factors.

A set A of positive integers is called a perfect difference set if every nonzero integer has an unique representation as the difference of two elements of A. We construct dense perfect difference sets from dense Sidon sets. As a consequence…

Let $X$ be a set of positive integers, and let $\mathbb Z_K$ be the ring of integers of a number field $K$ of degree $n$. Denote by $N(I)$ the absolute norm of an ideal $I$ of $\mathbb Z_K$, and by $\mathcal A$ the set of principal ideals…

Let $A$ be a set of positive integers. We define a positive integer $n$ as an $A$-practical number if every positive integer from the set $\left\{1,\ldots ,\sum_{d\in A, d\mid n}d\right\}$ can be written as a sum of distinct divisors of $n$…

We define a sequence of positive integers recursively, where each term is determined as follows: starting with a given positive integer, if the term is odd, the next is the sum of its positive divisors; if the term is even, the subsequent…

A new hierarchy of "exact" unification types is introduced, motivated by the study of admissibility for equational classes and non-classical logics. In this setting, unifiers of identities in an equational class are preordered, not by…

Let $S=\{p_1,\dots,p_s\}$ be a finite non-empty set of distinct prime numbers, let $f\in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ be a polynomial of degree $n\ge 1$, and let $S'\subseteq S$ be the subset of all $p\in S$ such that $f$ has a root in $\mathbb{Z}_p$.…

The paper is an extensive and systematic study of cardinal invariants we call slalom numbers, describing the combinatorics of sequences of sets of natural numbers. Our general approach, based on relational systems, covers many such cardinal…

A primary pseudoperfect number (PPN) is an integer $K > 1$ such that the reciprocals of $K$ and its prime factors sum to 1. PPNs arise in studying perfectly weighted graphs and singularities of algebraic surfaces, and are related to…

An Euler cuboid is a rectangular parallelepiped with integer edges and integer face diagonals. An Euler cuboid is called perfect if its space diagonal is also integer. Some Euler cuboids are already discovered. As for perfect cuboids, none…

A rational positive-definite quadratic form is perfect if it can be reconstructed from the knowledge of its minimal nonzero value m and the finite set of integral vectors v such that f(v) = m. This concept was introduced by Voronoi and…
