Let $A$ be a finite dimensional associative $\mathbb{K}$-algebra over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{K}$ of characteristic zero. To $A$, we can associate its basic form that is given by a quiver $Q = (Q_0, Q_1)$ with an admissible…

In this paper we prove two results. The first theorem uses a paper of Kim \cite{K} to show that for fixed primes $p_1,...,p_k$, and for fixed integers $m_1,...,m_k$, with $p_i\not|m_i$, the numbers $(e_{p_1}(n),...,e_{p_k}(n))$ are…

In this paper, we deal with the following $(p,q)$-fractional problem $$ (-\Delta)^{s_{1}}_{p}u +(-\Delta)^{s_{2}}_{q}u=\lambda P(x)|u|^{k-2}u+\theta|u|^{p_{s_{1}}^{*}-2}u \, \mbox{ in }\, \Omega,\qquad u=0\, \mbox{ in }\, \mathbb{R}^{N}…

We develop a new method that enables us to solve the open problem of characterizing discrete inequalities for kernel operators involving suprema. More precisely, we establish necessary and sufficient conditions under which there exists a…

Quantitative logic reasons about the degree to which formulas are satisfied. This paper studies the fundamental reasoning principles of higher-order quantitative logic and their application to reasoning about probabilistic programs and…

This paper establishes a classification of the critical numbers for restricted sumsets in finite abelian groups, determining them exactly for even-order groups and bounding them for odd-order groups, while revealing a fundamental structural…

We consider linear systems of recurrence equations whose coefficients are given in terms of indefinite nested sums and products covering, e.g., the harmonic numbers, hypergeometric products, $q$-hypergeometric products or their mixed…

We show that for any permutation $\pi$ there exists an integer $k_{\pi}$ such that every permutation avoiding $\pi$ as a pattern is a product of at most $k_{\pi}$ separable permutations. In other words, every strict class $\mathcal C$ of…

In prior work, we showed that subsets of $\mathbb{F}_{p}^{n}$ of $\mathrm{VC_{2}}$-dimension at most $k$ are well approximated by a union of atoms of a quadratic factor of complexity $(\ell,q)$, where the complexity $\ell$ of the linear…

We establish a new upper bound for the number of rationals up to a given height in a missing-digit set, making progress towards a conjecture of Broderick, Fishman, and Reich. This enables us to make novel progress towards another conjecture…

Let $N$ be an odd perfect number and let $a$ be its third largest prime divisor, $b$ be the second largest prime divisor, and $c$ be its largest prime divisor. We discuss steps towards obtaining a non-trivial upper bound on $a$, as well as…

Let $p$ be a prime. In this paper, we present a detailed $p$-adic analysis to factorials and double factorials and their congruences. We give good bounds for the $p$-adic sizes of the coefficients of the divided universal Bernoulli number…

Let $p$ be a prime number and let $S=\{x^p+c_1,\dots,x^p+c_r\}$ be a finite set of unicritical polynomials for some $c_1,\dots,c_r\in\mathbb{Z}$. Moreover, assume that $S$ contains at least one irreducible polynomial over $\mathbb{Q}$. Then…

The middle-third Cantor set C_3 is a fractal consisting of all the points in [0, 1] which have non-terminating base-3 representations involving only the digits 0 and 2. It is easily shown that the reciprocals of all prime numbers p > 3…

We have known that most sequences in $\mathcal{M}=\{1,2,\dots, M\}$ with length $n$ will miss $Me^{-\lambda}$ of the total numbers of $\{1,2,\dots,M\}$ as the ratio $n/M$ tends to $\lambda$. Now we consider a more general case where the…

We study the maximum absolute value of the determinant of matrices with entries in the set of $\ell$-th roots of unity; this is a generalization of $D$-optimal designs and Hadamard's maximal determinant problem, which involves $\pm 1$…

Given a prime power $q$ and positive integers $m,t,e$ with $e > mt/2$, we determine the number of all monic irreducible polynomials $f(x)$ of degree $m$ with coefficients in $\mathbb{F}_q$ such that $f(x^t)$ contains an irreducible factor…

Let $A$ be an $a$-letter alphabet. We consider fractional powers of $A$-strings: if $x$ is a $n$-letter string, $x^r$ is a prefix of $xxxx...$ having length $nr$. Let $l$ be a positive integer. Ilie, Ochem and Shallit defined $R(a,l)$ as…

We generalize the notion of Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv constants -- along the same lines we generalized in earlier work the notion of Davenport constants -- to a ``higher degree" and obtain various lower and upper bounds. These bounds are…

This paper investigates the absolute values on $\mathbb{Z}$ valued in the upper reals (i.e. reals for which only a right Dedekind section is given). These necessarily include multiplicative seminorms corresponding to the finite prime fields…
