We investigate bicomplex analogues of fundamental notions from classical algebraic number theory. In particular, we show that the primitive element theorem admits a natural generalization to bicomplex extensions, giving rise to two distinct…
Cyclic monotone independence is an algebraic notion of noncommutative independence, introduced in the study of multi-matrix random matrix models with small rank. Its algebraic form turns out to be surprisingly close to monotone…
This note presents an analytic technique for proving the linear independence of certain small subsets of real numbers over the rational numbers. The applications of this test produce simple linear independence proofs for the subsets of…
In this paper, we introduce the new fully degenerate poly-Bernoulli numbers and polynomials and investigate some properties of these polynomials and numbers. From our properties, we derive some identities for the fully degenerate…
Problems in additive number theory related to sum and difference sets, more general binary linear forms, and representation functions of additive bases for the integers and nonnegative integers.
The induction principle for natural numbers expresses that when a property holds for some natural number a and is hereditary, then it holds for all numbers greater than or equal to a. We present a similar principle for real numbers.
This paper describes several classical constructions of thin bases of finite order in additive number theory, and, in particular, gives a complete presentation of a beautiful construction of J. W. S. Cassels of a class of polynomially…
The reversal of a positive integer $A$ is the number obtained by reading $A$ backwards in its decimal representation. A pair $(A,B)$ of positive integers is said to be palindromic if the reversal of the product $A \times B$ is equal to the…
Students of quantum mechanics encounter discrete quantum numbers in a somewhat incoherent and bewildering number of ways. For each physical system studied, quantum numbers seem to be introduced in its own specific way, some enumerating from…
We analyze the convergence order of an algorithm producing the digits of an absolutely normal number. Furthermore, we introduce a stronger concept of absolute normality by allowing Pisot numbers as bases, which leads to expansions with…
This is a survey on the finite basis problem for varieties of algebraic systems. Our exposition is in two directions: (i) We give numerous examples of varieties which are not finitely based. (ii) We give examples of important varieties with…
We briefly describe some well-known means and their properties, focusing on the relationship with integer sequences. In particular, the harmonic numbers, deriving from the harmonic mean, motivate the definition of a new kind of mean that we…
In this paper, we consider degenerate poly-Bernoulli numbers and polynomials associated with polylogarithmic function and p-adic invariant integral on Zp. By using umbral calculus, we derive some identities of those numbers and polynomials
It is argued that the occurrence of disproportionately ("un-natural") large (or small) numbers, as well as deep cancellations, are comparatively natural traits of the way Nature is geared to operate in most complex systems. The idea is…
The symmetric Macdonald polynomials are able to be constructed out of the non-symmetric Macdonald polynomials. This allows us to develop the theory of the symmetric Macdonald polynomials by first developing the theory of their non-symmetric…
In the first part we associate a periodic sequence to a partition and study the connection the distribution of elements of uniform limit of the sequences. Then some facts of statistical independence of these limits are proved
In this expository note, we introduce the reader to compositions of a natural number, e.g., $2+1+2+1+7+1$ is a composition of 14, and $1+2$ and $2+1$ are two different compositions of 3. We discuss some simple restricted forms of…
A new approach to the phenomenon of large numbers coincidence leads to unexpected results. No matter how strange it might sound, the exact value of cosmological parameters and their analytical expression through fundamental constants have…
We present a relationship between the generalized hyperharmonic numbers and the poly-Bernoulli polynomials, motivated from the connections between harmonic and Bernoulli numbers. This relationship yields numerous identities for the…
We introduce numbers depending on three parameters which we call skyscraper numbers. We discuss properties of these numbers and their relationship with Stirling numbers of the first kind, and we also introduce a skyscraper sequence.
