We prove an improved form of an expectation of Polya and discuss several related questions
The purpose of this note is to correct an error in a paper of M. Cowling, G. Fendler and J.J.F. Fournier, and to give a counterexample to a conjecture of J.-L. Rubio de Francia.
In this note, we establish the validity of a conjecture recently proposed in Mathematics Magazine and connect it to the existing interesting results
This is an appendix to our paper "An update of the Hirsch Conjecture" (arXiv:0907.1186), containing proofs of some of the results and comments that were omitted in it.
This note presents criteria in terms of Bernoulli numbers for a number to be simultaneously a Wilson prime and a Lerch prime.
In this note we re-examine the analysis of the paper "On the martingale property of stochastic exponentials" by B. Wong and C.C. Heyde, Journal of Applied Probability, 41(3):654-664, 2004. Some counterexamples are presented and alternative…
In this brief review, I discuss recent developments in the study of pulsar-powered nebulae ("plerions"). The large volume of data which has been acquired in recent years reveals a diverse range of observational properties, demonstrating how…
We offer a more general Bailey pair than one that was proved in two different papers by two different methods [5, 12].
We give some very interesting matrices which are orthogonal over groups and, as far as we know, referenced, but in fact undocumented. This note is not intended to be published but available for archival reasons.
We formulate and discuss a conjecture which would extend a classical inequality of Bernstein.
We prove a number of basic vanishing results for modified diagonal classes. We also obtain some sharp results for modified diagonals of curves and abelian varieties, and we prove a conjecture of O'Grady about modified diagonals on double…
The aim of this note is to prove a new discrepancy principle. The advantage of the new discrepancy principle compared with the known one consists of solving a minimization problem approximately, rather than exactly, and in the proof of a…
In this short note we introduce a new metric on certain finite groups. It leads to a class of groups for which the element orders satisfy an interesting inequality. This extends the class CP_2 studied in our previous paper [16].
We indicate that an argument of da Costa and Doria in fact proves P=NP. This observation makes their argument appear dubious. We isolate a weak version of one of their lemmas which would already prove P=NP. We point out that even this weak…
We comment on one of the earliest derivations of the so-called wave-particle duality relation. Our aim is to point out a slight technical flaw in the proof, fixing it. Neither the physical content of the duality relation nor its validity is…
The aim of this short note is to show how can be derived from the properties of fundamental interpolation polynomials some nice identities.
In our effort to find an arithmetically pure proof of the Bertrand postulate, we investigate and solve (using only elementary arithmetical methods) another less usual inequality in positive integers inspired by the classical proof of the…
In this note we rectify the proof of Theorem 3.11 in [arXiv:2403.02876]. We also present a set of examples at the end discussing various cases.
The aim of this note is to show the existence of a large family of Cantorvals arising in the projection description of primitive two-letter substitutions. This provides a common and naturally occurring class of Cantorvals.
We give a conceptual explanation for the somewhat mysterious origin of Suslin matrices. This enables us to generalize the construction of Suslin matrices and to give more conceptual proofs of some well-known results.
