Using an extension of the abundancy index to imaginary quadratic rings that are unique factorization domains, we investigate what we call $n$-powerfully $t$-perfect numbers in these rings. This definition serves to extend the concept of…
In this note, we show that if $N$ is an odd perfect number and $q^{\alpha}$ is some prime power exactly dividing it, then $\sigma(N/q^{\alpha})/q^{\alpha}>5$. In general, we also show that if $\sigma(N/q^{\alpha})/q^{\alpha}<K$, where $K$…
We prove some properties of completely monotonic functions and apply them to obtain results on gamma and $q$-gamma functions.
Let $\lambda$ be a real number with $-\pi/2<\lambda<\pi/2.$ In order to study $\lambda$-spirallike functions, it is natural to measure the angle according to $\lambda$-spirals. Thus we are led to the notion of $\lambda$-argument. This fits…
In this paper, we study how close the terms of a finite arithmetic progression can get to a perfect square. The answer depends on the initial term, the common difference and the number of terms in the arithmetic progression.
Determining if a symmetric function is Schur-positive is a prevalent and, in general, a notoriously difficult problem. In this paper we study the Schur-positivity of a family of symmetric functions. Given a partition \lambda, we denote by…
The method of self-similar factor approximants is completed by defining the approximants of odd orders, constructed from the power series with the largest term of an odd power. It is shown that the method provides good approximations for…
Generally, in any human field, a Smarandache Structure on a set A means a weak structure W on A such that there exists a proper subset B which is embedded with a stronger structure S. By proper subset one understands a set included in A,…

In this paper, we define an ordering relation for a set of complex numbers, and research the properties and theorems of the ordering, solve some simple complex inequalities with the ordering.
In this work we state a Theorem on number theory and apply it to solve some ordinary and partial differential equations.
Expanding upon recent work, a new class of $A$-functions is introduced that can be viewed as an appropriate generalization of the class of regular $A$-functions, the class of structured $A$-functions, and the class of perfect $A$-functions.…
We introduce the completeness problem for Modal Logic and examine its complexity. For a definition of completeness for formulas, given a formula of a modal logic, the completeness problem asks whether the formula is complete for that logic.…
We introduce two algorithms for accurately evaluating powers to a positive integer in floating-point arithmetic, assuming a fused multiply-add (fma) instruction is available. We show that our log-time algorithm always produce…
In this survey paper, I first review the history of Bernoulli numbers, then examine the modern definition of Bernoulli numbers and the appearance of Bernoulli numbers in expansion of functions. I revisit some properties of Bernoulli numbers…
The spheroidal wave functions are investigated in the case m=1. The integral equation is obtained for them. For the two kinds of eigenvalues in the differential and corresponding integral equations, the relation between them are given…
The polylogarithm function is one of the constellation of important mathematical functions. It has a long history, and many connections to other special functions and series, and many applications, for instance in statistical physics.…
In this expository article, the real numbers are defined as infinite decimals. After defining an ordering relation and the arithmetic operations, it is shown that the set of real numbers is a complete ordered field. It is further shown that…
We call positive integer n a near-perfect number, if it is sum of all its proper divisors, except of one of them ("redundant divisor"). We prove an Euclid-like theorem for near-perfect numbers and obtain some other results for them.
In the last decades, the theory of digamma function has been developed with a high impact of interest by many authors. Here, we established some interesting results for digamma function, and also we have computed the values of digamma…
