We find upper and lower bounds on the number of rational points that are $\psi$-approximations of some $n$-dimensional $p$-adic integer. Lattice point counting techniques are used to find the upper bound result, and a Pigeon-hole principle…
We give conditions on the rational numbers a,b,c which imply that there are infinitely many triples (x,y,z) of rational numbers such that x+y+z=a+b+c and xyz=abc. We do the same for the equations x+y+z=a+b+c and x^3+y^3+z^3=a^3+b^3+c^3.…
The problem of computing recurrence coefficients of sequences of rational functions orthogonal with respect to a discrete inner product is formulated as an inverse eigenvalue problem for a pencil of Hessenberg matrices. Two procedures are…
We find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the n by n matrix with (i,j) entry \binom(i-1,n-j), establishing a conjecture of Peele and Stanica. Curiously, the eigenvectors can be chosen to form a matrix which is its own inverse.
This work lies across three areas (in the title) of investigation that are by themselves of independent interest. A problem that arose in quantum computing led us to a link that tied these areas together. This link consists of a single…
We investigate the construction of circulant matrices derived from primitive roots over finite fields. Our approach reduces exponential sums to Jacobi sums, thereby establishing explicit connections between character theory and matrix…
A unified theory of orthogonal polynomials of a discrete variable is presented through the eigenvalue problem of hermitian matrices of finite or infinite dimensions. It can be considered as a matrix version of exactly solvable Schr\"odinger…
Let $F_n$ denote the $n^{th}$ term of the Fibonacci sequence. In this paper, we investigate the Diophantine equation $F_1^p+2F_2^p+\cdots+kF_{k}^p=F_{n}^q$ in the positive integers $k$ and $n$, where $p$ and $q$ are given positive integers.…
We are motivated by a result of Alzer and Luca who presented all the integer solutions to the relations $(k!)^n-k^n=(n!)^k-n^k$ and $(k!)^n+k^n=(n!)^k+n^k$. We modify the equations by considering the double factorial instead and present all…
We obtain new parametric quadrature formulas with variable nodes for integrals of complex rational functions over circles, segments of the real axis and the real axis itself. Basing on these formulas we derive $(q,p)$-inequalities of…
A selfadjoined block tridiagonal matrix with positive definite blocks on the off-diagonals is by definition a Jacobi matrix with matrix entries. Transfer matrix techniques are extended in order to develop a rotation number calculation for…
This part is made of three sections. In the first section we study the family of polynomials whose roots are 4cos2 k{\pi}, (n \geqslant 3,1 \leqslant k < \frac{n}{2}). We obtain n2 in this manner a family of orthogonal polynomials. This…
We study the ``imaginary" binary quadratic form equations ax^2+bxy+cy^2+g=0 over k[t] in rational function fields, showing that a condition with respect to the Artin reciprocity map, is the only obstruction to the local-global principle for…
In this paper the sum of an orthogonal matrix and an outer product is studied, and a relation between the norms of the vectors forming the outer product and the singular values of the resulting matrix is presented. The main result may be…
Recent results for rotations expressed as polynomials of spin matrices are derived here by elementary differential equation methods. Structural features of the results are then examined in the framework of biorthogonal systems, to obtain an…
The class of three-diagonal Jacobi matrix with exponentially increasing elements is considered. Under some assumptions the matrix corresponds to unbounded self-adjoint operator in the weighted space. The weight depends on elements of the…
We consider the equality of the values of the $n$th and $k$th elementary symmetric polynomials of $n$ not necessarily distinct positive integers. For $k < n$, we prove that this equation always has a solution, but only finitely many…
We associate some (old) convergent series related to definite integrals with the cyclotomic equation $x^m-1= 0$, for several natural numbers $m$; for example, for $m = 3$, $x^3-1 = (x-1)(1+x+x^2)$, leads to $\int_0^1dx\frac{1}{(1+x+x^2)} =…
We search points in a Vogel plane with regular universal expression for character of adjoint representation. This gives seven patterns of singularities cancellation, each giving a certain Diophantine equation of third order on three…
A description of eigensubspaces of the cosine and sine operators is presented. The spectrum of each of these two operator consists of two eigenvalues (1,\,-1) and their eigensubspaces are infinite--dimensional. There are many possible bases…
