We estimate Weyl sums over the integers with sum of binary digits either fixed or restricted by some congruence condition. In our proofs we use ideas that go back to a paper by Banks, Conflitti and the first author (2002). Moreover, we…

Hirose, Murahara, and Saito proved that some $t$-adic symmetric multiple zeta values, for indices in which $1$ and $3$ appear alternately in succession, can be expressed as polynomials in Riemann zeta values, and conjectured similar…

The scissors congruence conjecture for the unimodular group is an analogue of Hilbert's third problem, for the equidecomposability of polytopes. Liu and Osserman studied the Ehrhart quasi-polynomials of polytopes naturally associated to…

In this paper, we prove a theorem on the distribution of primes in cubic progressions on average.

We construct arithmetic terms representing the partial sums of binomial coefficients, and we extend these results to obtain arithmetic terms representing the multisections of binomial coefficient sums. We also introduce an arithmetic term…

In the paper we obtain new estimates for binary and ternary sums of multiplicative characters with additive convolutions of characteristic functions of sets, having small additive doubling. In particular, we improve a result of M.-C. Chang.…

In this paper we compute the 2-adic valuations of some polynomials associated with the definite integral $\int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{dx}{(x^4+2*a*x^2+1)^(m+1)}$

Pilz's conjecture states that for any finite set $A=\{a_1,a_2,\dots,a_k\}$ of positive integers and positive integer $n$ in the union of the sets $\{a_1,2a_1,\dots,na_1\},\dots, \{a_k,2a_k,\dots,na_k\}$ (considered as a multiset) at least…

We show that identities involving trigonometric sums recently proved by Harshitha, Vasuki and Yathirajsharma, using Ramanujan's theory of theta functions, were either already in the literature or can be proved easily by adapting results…

During his lifetime, Ramanujan provided many formulae relating binomial sums to special values of the Gamma function. Based on numerical computations, Van Hamme recently conjectured $p$-adic analogues to such formulae. Using a combination…

It is shown that there exists a dihedral acute triangulation of the three-dimensional cube. The method of constructing the acute triangulation is described, and symmetries of the triangulation are discussed.

We give a new proof for the directional billiard complexity in the cube, which was conjectured in \cite{Ra} and proven in \cite{Ar.Ma.Sh.Ta}. Our technique gives us a similar theorem for some rational polyhedra.

We extend and prove a conjecture of Bengu\c{s}-Lasnier on the parametrization of valuations on a polynomial ring by certain spaces of diskoids.

We use an estimate of Aksoy Yazici, Murphy, Rudnev and Shkredov (2016) on the number of solutions of certain equations involving products and differences of sets in prime finite fields to give an explicit upper bound on trilinear…

We give combinatorial proofs for some identities involving binomial sums that have no closed form.

We prove recursive formulas for sums of squares and sums of triangular numbers in terms of sums of divisors functions and we give a variety of consequences of these formulas. Intermediate applications include statements about positivity of…

In this note we give the answer to the question posed by V. N. Dubinin concerning covering properties of complex polynomials

This is an expository account of the proof of the theorem of Bourgain, Glibichuk and Konyagin which provides non-trivial bounds for exponential sums over very small multiplicative subgroups of prime finite fields.

Many sequences of binomial coefficients share various unimodality properties. In this paper we consider the unimodality problem of a sequence of binomial coefficients located in a ray or a transversal of the Pascal triangle. Our results…

Recently the problem of constructing a perfect Euler cuboid was related with three conjectures asserting the irreducibility of some certain three polynomials depending on integer parameters. In this paper a partial result toward proving the…
