Let $S_m f$ denote the $m$-th partial sum of the Walsh-Fourier series of $f \in L^1$. For an increasing sequence $a=(a(n))_{n \geq 1}$ of positive integers, consider the arithmetic means $$ \sigma_N f:=\frac{1}{N} \sum_{n=1}^N S_{a(n)} f .…

A unit fraction representation of a rational number $r$ is a finite sum of reciprocals of positive integers that equals $r$. Of particular interest is the case when all denominators in the representation are distinct, resulting in an…

In a multi-base representation of an integer (in contrast to, for example, the binary or decimal representation) the base (or radix) is replaced by products of powers of single bases. The resulting numeral system has desirable properties…

Factorization of numbers with the help of Gauss sums relies on an intimate relationship between the maxima of these functions and the factors. Indeed, when we restrict ourselves to integer arguments of the Gauss sum we profit from a…

Let $f(n)$ and $g(n)$ be the number of unordered and ordered factorizations of $n$ into integers larger than one. Let $F(n)$ and $G(n)$ have the additional restriction that the factors are coprime. We establish the asymptotic bounds for the…

We describe a simple method that produces automatically closed forms for the coefficients of continued fractions expansions of a large number of special functions. The function is specified by a non-linear differential equation and initial…

We give a simple proof of a well-known theorem of G\'al and of the recent related results of Aistleitner, Berkes and Seip [1] regarding the size of GCD sums. In fact, our method obtains the asymptotically sharp constant in G\'al's theorem,…

We consider the set of power functions defined on the set of positive real number, and their linear combinations. After recalling some properties of the gamma function, we give two general definitions of derivatives of positive and negative…

A fractional matching of a graph $G$ is a function $f:E(G) \to [0,1]$ such that for any $v\in V(G)$, $\sum_{e\in E_G(v)}f(e)\leq 1$ where $E_G(v) = \{e \in E(G): e$ is incident with $v$ in $G\}$. The fractional matching number of $G$ is…

Let $N$ be a large prime and let $c > 1/4$. We prove that if $f$ is a $\pm 1$-valued completely multiplicative function, such that the exponential sums $$ S_f(a) := \sum_{1 \leq n < N} f(n) e(na/N), \quad a \pmod{N} $$ satisfy the ``Gauss…

We present closed forms for several functions that are fundamental in number theory and we explain the method used to obtain them. Concretely, we find formulas for the p-adic valuation, the number-of-divisors function, the sum-of-divisors…
