In this manuscript, we investigate some properties of certain counting functions, associated to the ergodic sums computed along the periodic orbits of the skew-product map, related to a finitely generated rational semigroup. To be precise,…

Given $r \in \mathbb{N}$, define the function $S_{r}: \mathbb{N} \rightarrow \mathbb{Q}$ by $S_{r}(n)=\displaystyle \sum_{k=0}^{n} \frac{k}{k+r} \binom{n}{k}$. In $2015$, the second author conjectured that there are infinitely many $r \in…

Based on the general strategy described by Borel and Serre and the Voronoi algorithm for computing unit groups of orders we present an algorithm for finding presentations of $S$-unit groups of orders. The algorithm is then used for some…

The finite n-th polylogarithm li_n(z) in Z/p[z] is defined as the sum on k from 1 to p-1 of z^k/k^n. We state and prove the following theorem. Let Li_k:C_p to C_p be the p-adic polylogarithms defined by Coleman. Then a certain linear…

We use recent results on algorithms for Markov decision problems to show that a canonical form for a generalized P-matrix can be computed, in some important cases, by a strongly polynomial algorithm.

Zaremba's Conjecture concerns the formation of continued fractions with partial quotients restricted to a given alphabet. In order to answer the numerous questions that arrive from this conjecture, it is best to consider a semi-group, often…

We solve multiple conjectures by Byszewski and Ulas about the sum of base $b$ digits function. In order to do this, we develop general results about summations over the sum of digits function. As a corollary, we describe an unexpected new…

We present an efficient quantum algorithm for estimating Gauss sums over finite fields and finite rings. This is a natural problem as the description of a Gauss sum can be done without reference to a black box function. With a reduction…

An analytical-numeric calculation method of extremely complicated integrals is presented. These integrals appear often in magnet soliton theory. The appropriate analytical continuation and a corresponding integration contour allow to reduce…

In this paper we propose a conjecture concerning partial sums of an arbitrary finite subset of an abelian group, that naturally arises investigating simple Heffter systems. Then, we show its connection with related open problems and we…

We consider Birkhoff sums of functions with a singularity of type 1/x over rotations and prove the following limit theorem. Let $S_N= S_N(\alpha,x)$ be the N^th non-renormalized Birkhoff sum, where $x in [0,1)$ is the initial point,…
