We consider algebras of $m\times m\times m$-cubic matrices (with $m=1,2,\dots$). Since there are several kinds of multiplications of cubic matrices, one has to specify a multiplication first and then define an algebra of cubic matrices…

In 2007, Zhi-Wei Sun defined a \emph{covering number} to be a positive integer $L$ such that there exists a covering system of the integers where the moduli are distinct divisors of $L$ greater than 1. A covering number $L$ is called…

Let m be a cube-free positive integer and let p be a prime such that p does not divide m. In this paper we find the number of conjugacy classes of completely reducible solvable cube-free subgroups in GL(2, q) of order m, where q is a power…

Let $K_{m}-H$ be the graph obtained from $K_{m}$ by removing the edges set $E(H)$ of the graph $H$ ($H$ is a subgraph of $K_{m}$). We use the symbol $Z_4$ to denote $K_4-P_2.$ A sequence $S$ is potentially $K_{m}-H$-graphical if it has a…

Let $F$ be a local field and let $R$ be its ring of integers. For a positive integer $n$, an integral quadratic form defined over $R$ is called primitively $n$-universal if it primitively represents all quadratic forms of rank $n$. It was…

We show the following result: Let $A$ be a positive operator satisfying $0<m{{\mathbf{1}}_{\mathcal{H}}}\le A\le M{{\mathbf{1}}_{\mathcal{H}}}$ for some scalars $m,M$ with $m<M$ and $\Phi $ be a normalized positive linear map, then \[\Phi…

It is known that infinitely many number fields and function fields of any degree $m$ have class number divisible by a given integer $n$. However, significantly less is known about the indivisibility of class numbers of such fields. While…

For $\alpha>1$, set $\beta=1/(\alpha-1)$. We show that, for every $1<\alpha<(\sqrt{21}+4)/5\approx1.717$, the number of pairs $(m,n)$ of positive integers with $d=\lfloor{n^\alpha}\rfloor - \lfloor{m^\alpha}\rfloor$ is equal to…

It has been conjectured for some time that, for any integer n\ge 2, any real number \epsilon >0 and any transcendental real number \xi, there would exist infinitely many algebraic integers \alpha of degree at most n with the property that…

In this paper, we present a method for estimating the least common multiple of a large class of binary linear recurrence sequences. Let $P,Q,R_0$, and $R_1$ be fixed integers and let $\boldsymbol{R}=\left(R_n\right)_{n}$ be the recurrence…

It is shown that $c=-29/16$ is the unique rational number of smallest denominator, and the unique rational number of smallest numerator, for which the map $f_c(x) = x^2+c$ has a rational periodic point of period $3$. Several arithmetic…

The shape of a number field $K$ of degree $m$ is defined as the equivalence class of the lattice of integers under linear operations generated by rotations, reflections, and positive scalar dilations. It may be viewed as a point in the…

Here is one of the results obtained in this paper: Let $\Omega\subset {\bf R}^n$ be a smooth bounded domain, let $q>1$, with $q<{{n+2}\over {n-2}}$ if $n\geq 3$ and let $\lambda_1$ be the first eigenvalue of the problem $$\cases{-\Delta…

Let $O$ be an order in a quadratic number field $K$ with ring of integers $D$, such that the conductor $\mathfrak F = f D$ is a prime ideal of $O$, where $f\in\mathbb Z$ is a prime. We give a complete description of the $\mathfrak…

A class number formula is proved for extended ring class fields $L_{\mathcal{O},9}$ over imaginary quadratic fields $K_d = \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-d})$, in which the prime $p = 3$ splits, by determining the fields generated by the periodic points…

In this article we will describe a surprising observation that occurred in the construction of quadratic unramified extensions of a family of pure cubic number fields. Attempting to find an explanation will lead us on a magical mystery tour…

Let $\mathbb{I}$ denote an imaginary quadratic field or the field $\mathbb{Q}$ of rational numbers and $\mathbb{Z}_{\mathbb{I}}$ its ring of intergers. We shall prove an explicit Baker type lower bound for $\mathbb{Z}_{\mathbb{I}}$-linear…

Define $|n|$ to be the complexity of $n$, the smallest number of 1's needed to write $n$ using an arbitrary combination of addition and multiplication. John Selfridge showed that $|n|\ge 3\log_3 n$ for all $n$. Define the defect of $n$,…

Very recently, Issa and Darrag [Arch. Math. (Basel) 123 (2024), no. 4, 379-383] determined partial Dedekind zeta values for certain ideal classes in the real quadratic fields of the form $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{9m^2+2m})$, where $9m^2+2m$ is…

Using model theoretic techniques that proved that the class of $n$ neat reducts of $m$ dimensional cylindric algebras, $\Nr_n\CA_m$, is not elementary, we prove the same result for $\Ra\CA_k$, $k\geq 5$, and we show that $\Ra\CA_k\subset…
