We establish pointwise convergence for nonconventional ergodic averages taken along $\lfloor p^c\rfloor$, where $p$ is a prime number and $c\in(1,4/3)$ on $L^r$, $r\in(1,\infty)$. In fact, we consider averages along more general sequences…

This article discusses variants of Weber's class number problem in the spirit of arithmetic topology to connect the results of Sinnott--Kisilevsky and Kionke. Let $p$ be a prime number. We first prove the $p$-adic convergence of class…

For a given point P in the group of K-rational points E(K) of an elliptic curve, we consider the sequence of values (F_1(P),F_2(P),F_3(P),...) of the division polynomials of E at P. If K is a finite field, we prove that the sequence is…

We develop multisummability, in the positive real direction, for generalized power series with natural support, and we prove o-minimality of the expansion of the real field by all multisums of these series. This resulting structure expands…

Let G be a commutative algebraic group over Q. Let Gamma be a subgroup of G(Q) contained in the union of the compact subgroups of G(Q_p). We formulate a guess for the dimension of the closure of Gamma in G(Q_p), and show that its…

Let $p>3$ be a prime, and let $a$ be a rational p-adic integer with $a\not\equiv 0\pmod p$. In this paper we establish congruences for $$\sum_{k=1}^{(p-1)/2}\frac{\binom ak\binom{-1-a}k}k, \quad\sum_{k=0}^{(p-1)/2}k\binom ak\binom{-1-a}k…

Let ${\nu}_q(n)$ be the p-adic valuation of $n$. We show that the power series with coefficients ${\nu}_q(n)$, respectively ${\nu}_p(n)(\mathrm{ mod\;} k)$, are non-holonomic and not algebraic in characteristic 0. We find infinitely many…

This paper considers a parametrized family of generalized Takagi functions f_p with parameter p. Tabor and Tabor [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 356 (2009), 729-737] recently proved that for p in [1,2], f_p is (1,p)-midconvex. We give a simpler proof…

We show that the coefficients of a power series occurring in $p$-adic Fourier theory for $\mathbf{Q}_{p^2}$ have valuations that are given by an intriguing formula.

In this article, we study rational matrix representations of VZ $p$-groups ($p$ is any prime). Utilizing our findings on VZ $p$-groups, we explicitly obtain all inequivalent irreducible rational matrix representations of all $p$-groups of…

The paper studies logarithmic convexity and concavity of power series with coefficients involving q-gamma functions or q-shifted factorials with respect to a parameter contained in their arguments. The principal motivating examples of such…

We show that several terminating summation and transformation formulas for basic hypergeometric series can be proved in a straightforward way. Along the same line, new finite forms of Jacobi's triple product identity and Watson's quintuple…

Quickly convergent series are given to compute polyzeta numbers. The formula involves an intricate combination of (generalized) polylogarithms at 1/2. However, the combinatorics has a very simple geometric interpretation: it corresponds…

We present efficient methods for calculating linear recurrences of hypergeometric double sums and, more generally, of multiple sums. In particular, we supplement this approach with the algorithmic theory of contiguous relations, which…

In this article, we define a new k-adic series transformation called Z-transformation and probe into its fixed point and periodicity. We extend the number field of the transform period problem to a wider k-adic field. Different constraints…

We study $p$-adic Euler's series $E_p(t) = \sum_{k=0}^{\infty}k!t^k$ at a point $p^a$, $a \in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge 1}$, and use Pad\'e approximations to prove a lower bound for the $p$-adic absolute value of the expression $cE_p\left(\pm…

We primarily investigate congruences modulo $p$ for finite sums of the form $\sum_k\binom{rk}{k}x^k/k$ over the ranges $0<k<p$ and $0<k<p/r$, where $p$ is a prime larger than the positive integer $r$. Here $x$ is an indeterminate, thus…
