In this paper, we introduce the notion of $q$-quasiadditivity of arithmetic functions, as well as the related concept of $q$-quasimultiplicativity, which generalises strong $q$-additivity and -multiplicativity, respectively. We show that…

We find two-sided inequalities for the generalized hypergeometric function of the form ${_{q+1}}F_{q}(-x)$ with positive parameters restricted by certain additional conditions. Both lower and upper bounds agree with the value of…

In this paper, we are dealing with the solution of the functional equation $$ \varphi\Big(\frac{x+y}2\Big)(f(x)-f(y))=F(x)-F(y), $$ concerning the unknown functions $\varphi,f$ and $F$ defined on a same open subinterval of the reals.…

We investigate solutions to the functional equation $f(f(x)) = e^x$, which can be interpreted as the problem of finding a half iterate of the exponential map. While no elementary solution exists, we construct and analyze non-elementary…

We study the existence of positive solutions on the half-line $[0,\infty)$ for the nonlinear second order differential equation \[ \bigl(a(t)x^{\prime}\bigr)^{\prime}+b(t)F(x)=0,\quad t\geq0, \] satisfying Dirichlet type conditions, say…

We study some properties of graphs (or, rather, graph sequences) defined by demanding that the number of subgraphs of a given type, with vertices in subsets of given sizes, approximatively equals the number expected in a random graph. It…

For functions $f$ of a continuous variable in $\mathbb{R}^{+}$ we show that the Hirsch function $h_f$ equals $f$ iff $(f(f(x)) = x f(x))$ on $\mathbb{R}^{+}$, leading for continuous $f$ to $f$ = $\emptyset$ or the power function $f(x)$ =…

For a simple connected graph $G$, the $Q$-generating function of the numbers $N_k$ of semi-edge walks of length $k$ in $G$ is defined by $W_Q(t)=\sum\nolimits_{k = 0}^\infty {N_k t^k }$. This paper reveals that the $Q$-generating function…

We study the monotonicity and one-dimensional symmetry of positive solutions to the problem $-\Delta_p u = f(u)$ in $\mathbb{R}^N_+$ under zero Dirichlet boundary condition, where $p>1$ and $f:(0,+\infty)\to\mathbb{R}$ is a locally…

In this article, we study algebraic decompositions and secondary constructions of almost perfect nonlinear (APN) functions. In many cases, we establish precise criteria which characterize when certain modifications of a given APN function…

In this paper, we introduce a generalized quadratic functional equation $f(rx + sy) = rf(x) + sf(y) - rsf(x - y)$ where $r, s$ are nonzero real numbers with $r + s = 1.$ We show that this functional equation is quadratic if $r, s$ are…

Sufficient geometric conditions are given which determine when the Cauchy-Pexider functional equation f(x)g(y)=h(x+y) restricted to x,y lying on a hypersurface in R^d has only solutions which extend uniquely to exponential affine functions.…

We first show that a continuous function f is nonnegative on a closed set $K\subseteq R^n$ if and only if (countably many) moment matrices of some signed measure $d\nu =fd\mu$ with support equal to K, are all positive semidefinite (if $K$…

Polynomial functions $f : \mathbb{N}_+ \longrightarrow \mathbb{N}_+$ are studied for which sums of arbitrary length $f (1) + f (2) + f (3) + >... + f (n)$, with $n \in \mathbb{N}_+$, can be expressed by polynomial functions $g :…

Let $\mu$ be a positive measure on the real line with locally finite support $\Lambda$ and integer masses such that its Fourier transform in the sense of distributions is a purely point measure. An explicit form is found for an entire…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field with $q$ elements and $char(\mathbb{F}_q)$ odd. In this article we will describe completely the dynamics of the map $f(X)=c(X^{q+1}+aX^2)$, for $a=\{\pm1\}$ and $c\in\mathbb{F}_q^*$, over the finite…

Here in particular, we give a characterization of Quasi-line Graphs in terms of forbidden induced subgraphs. In general, we prove a necessary and sufficient condition for a graph to be a union of two cliques.
