In this paper, we extend the work of (Abbondati et al., 2024) on decoding simultaneous rational number codes by addressing two important scenarios: multiplicities and the presence of bad primes (divisors of denominators). First, we…

Let ${{B}_{3}}(n)$ denote the number of partition triples of $n$ where each partition is 3-core. With the help of generating function manipulations, we find several infinite families of arithmetic identities and congruences for…

The quantitative distribution of twin primes remains a central open problem in number theory. This paper develops a heuristic model grounded in the principles of sieve theory, with the goal of constructing an analytical approximation for…

We state a general purpose algorithm for quickly finding primes in evenly divided sub-intervals. Legendre's conjecture claims that for every positive integer $n$, there exists a prime between $n^2$ and $(n+1)^2$. Oppermann's conjecture…

We exhibit a probabilistic algorithm which computes a rational point of an absolutely irreducible variety over a finite field defined by a reduced regular sequence. Its time--space complexity is roughly quadratic in the logarithm of the…

We discuss integrable aspects of the logarithmic contribution of the partition function of cosmological critical topologically massive gravity. On one hand, written in terms of Bell polynomials which describe the statistics of set…

In this paper we consider a fragment of the first-order theory of the real numbers that includes systems of equations of continuous functions in bounded domains, and for which all functions are computable in the sense that it is possible to…

We prove three main conjectures of Berkovich and Uncu (Ann. Comb. 23 (2019) 263--284) on the inequalities between the numbers of partitions of $n$ with bounded gap between largest and smallest parts for sufficiently large $n$. Actually our…

Existentially closed groups are, informally, groups that contain solutions to every consistent finite system of equations and inequations. They were introduced in 1951 in an algebraic context and subsequent research elucidated deep…

The classical Dirichlet problem on the unit disk can be solved by different numerical approaches. The two most common and popular approaches are the integration of the associated Poisson integral and, by applying Dirichlet's principle,…

We prove that the Herzog-Sch\"onheim Conjecture holds for any group $G$ of order smaller than $1440$. In other words we show that in any non-trivial coset partition $\{g_i U_i\}_{i=1}^n $ of $G$ there exist distinct $1 \leq i, j \leq n$…

We investigate $sc_7(n)$, the number of self-conjugate $7$-core partitions of size $n$. It turns out that $sc_7(n)=0$ for $n\equiv 7\pmod 8$. For $n\equiv 1, 3, 5\pmod 8$, with $n\not \equiv 5\pmod 7,$ we find that $sc_7(n)$ is essentially…
