In 1892, Lord Rayleigh estimated the effective conductivity of rectangular arrays of disks and proved, by means of the Eisenstein summation, that the lattice sum $S_2$ is equal to $\pi$ for the square array. Further, it became clear that…
For a long time it has been known that in the 16th century the Swiss mathematician Jost B\"urgi found a new method for calculating sines, but no information about the details has been available. Recently a manuscript written by B\"urgi…
We analyze priority queues of Fibonacci family. The paper is inspired by Violation heap [1], where A. Elmasry saves one pointer in representation of Fibonacci heap nodes while achieving the same amortized bounds as Fibonacci heaps [2] of M.…
It is well known that the strong subadditivity theorem is hold for classical system, but it is very difficult to prove that it is hold for quantum system. The first proof of this theorem is due to Lieb by using the Lieb's theorem. Here we…
A famous conjecture of P\'osa from 1962 asserts that every graph on $n$ vertices and with minimum degree at least $2n/3$ contains the square of a Hamilton cycle. The conjecture was proven for large graphs in 1996 by Koml\'os, S\'ark\"ozy…
$A$ set is called $IP$-set in a semigroup $\left(S,\cdot \right)$ if it contains finite products of a sequence. A set that intersects with all $IP$-sets is called $IP^\star$-set. It is a well known and established result by Bergelson and…
Motivation: Generative models for protein backbone design have to simultaneously ensure geometric validity, sampling efficiency, and scalability to long sequences. However, most existing approaches rely on iterative refinement, quadratic…
The purpose of this paper is to discuss the relationship between prime numbers and sums of Fibonacci numbers. One of our main results says that for every sufficiently large integer $k$ there exists a prime number that can be represented as…
In 2007, A.I.Aptekarev and his collaborators discovered a sequence of rational approximations to Euler's constant $\gamma$ defined by a linear recurrence. In this paper, we generalize this result and present an explicit construction of…
Yupana is an Inca device used for arithmetic operations. This article describes a new arithmetical system: Tawa Pukllay (TP), where arithmetic operations do not require mental calculations: no carries, no borrows, no memorization of…
The beta integral is applied to accelerate the hypergeometric function $2 F 1\left\{1, B; C ; w\right\}$ to derive new infinite series for constants such as $\pi$ and values of the gamma function. A compendium of new infinite series is…
Recently Z.W.Sun found over hundred conjectured formulas for 1/pi. Many of them were proved by H.H.Chan, J.Wan andW.Zudilin (see [3], [8] in the paper). Here we show that several other formulas in [6] are simple transformations of known…
A series of formula is presented that are all inspired by the Ramanujan Notebooks [6]. One of them appears in the notebooks II about Zeta(3). That formula inspired others that appeared in 1998, 2006 and 2009 on the author's website and…
We obtained a new formula for $\pi$.
Taking $r>0$, let $\pi_{2r}(x)$ denote the number of prime pairs $(p, p+2r)$ with $p\le x$. The prime-pair conjecture of Hardy and Littlewood (1923) asserts that $\pi_{2r}(x)\sim 2C_{2r} {\rm li}_2(x)$ with an explicit constant $C_{2r}>0$.…
A word $w$ of letters on edges of underlying graph $\Gamma$ of deterministic finite automaton (DFA) is called synchronizing if $w$ sends all states of the automaton to a unique state. J. \v{C}erny discovered in 1964 a sequence of $n$-state…
In 1914, Kempner proved that the series 1/1 + 1/2 + ... + 1/8 + 1/10 + 1/11 + ... + 1/18 + 1/20 + 1/21 + ... where the denominators are the positive integers that do not contain the digit 9, converges to a sum less than 90. The actual sum…
We suggest a new optimization technique for minimizing the sum $\sum_{i=1}^n f_i(x)$ of $n$ non-convex real functions that satisfy a property that we call piecewise log-Lipschitz. This is by forging links between techniques in computational…
This paper was written, apart from one technical correction, in July and August of 2013. The, then very recent, breakthrough of Y. Zhang \cite{Z} had revived in us an intention to produce a second edition of our book "Opera de Cribro", one…
Between the ninth and fifteenth centuries, several Arab mathematicians studied numerical algorithms on integers. The extraction of the square root of an integer is based on an algorithm known at least since al-Khwarizmi (died around 850)…
