Let $\mu$ be a positive measure on the real line with locally finite support $\Lambda$ and integer masses such that its Fourier transform in the sense of distributions is a purely point measure. An explicit form is found for an entire…
Sequence of positive integers $\{x_n\}_{n\geq1}$ is called similar to $\mathbb {N}$ respectively a given property $A$ if for every $n\geq1$ the numbers $x_n$ and $n$ are in the same class of equivalence respectively $A\enskip(x_n\sim n…
Real numbers from the interval [0, 1] are randomly selected with uniform distribution. There are $n$ of them and they are revealed one by one. However, we do not know their values but only their relative ranks. We want to stop on recently…
When implementing regular enough functions (e.g., elementary or special functions) on a computing system, we frequently use polynomial approximations. In most cases, the polynomial that best approximates (for a given distance and in a given…
Integer programs defined by two equations with two free integer variables and nonnegative continuous variables have three types of nontrivial facets: split, triangle or quadrilateral inequalities. In this paper, we compare the strength of…
A numerical semigroup is a subset of the non-negative integers that is closed under addition. For a randomly generated numerical semigroup, the expected number of minimum generators can be expressed in terms of a doubly-indexed sequence of…
We study the minimal gap statistic for fractional parts of sequences of the form $\mathcal A^\alpha = \{\alpha a(n)\}$ where $\mathcal A = \{a(n)\}$ is a sequence of distinct of integers. Assuming that the additive energy of the sequence is…
We study the minimum mean-squared error for 2-means clustering when the outcomes of the vector-valued random variable to be clustered are on two touching spheres of unit radius in $n$-dimensional Euclidean space and the underlying…
This paper extends the problem of 2-dimensional palindrome search into the area of approximate matching. Using the Hamming distance as the measure, we search for 2D palindromes that allow up to $k$ mismatches. We consider two different…
Let $a$ be a positive integer, and let $\sigma(a)$ denote the least natural number $s$ such that an integer square lies between $s^2 a$ and $s^2 (a+1)$; let $\tau_s(a)$ denote the number of such integer squares. The function $\sigma(a)$ and…
Let n be an odd integer greater than 1. We slice a circular pizza into 2n slices, making cuts from a non-central interior point of the circle. We estimate the difference between between the total area of the even numbered slices and the…
Let $p_{r+1}-1>n \geq p_r-1$, based on a sequence $\{1,2,3\cdots\ M_r(M_r=p_1p_2\cdots p_r)\}$, we compare the density of coprime numbers and establish a correlation between the proportions of coprime numbers in the ranges from 1 to…
This paper is to characterize piecewise continuous almost periodic functions as the product of Bohr almost periodic functions and sequences. As an application, the result is used to discuss piecewise continuous almost periodic solutions of…
We consider polyhedral cones, associated with quasi-semi-metrics (oriented distances), in particular, with oriented multi-cuts, on n points. We computed the number of facets and of extreme rays, their adjacencies, and incidences of the…
In this paper we make a first attempt at understanding how to build an optimal approximate normal factor analysis model. The criterion we have chosen to evaluate the distance between different models is the I-divergence between the…
An abstract indefinite least squares problem with a quadratic constraint is considered. This is a quadratic programming problem with one quadratic equality constraint, where neither the objective nor the constraint are convex functions.…
We present a two-stage least-squares method to inverse medium problems of reconstructing multiple unknown coefficients simultaneously from noisy data. A direct sampling method is applied to detect the location of the inhomogeneity in the…
Let n be any odd natural number other than a perfect square, in this article it is demonstrated that this new factorization algorithm is much more efficient than the implementation technique [2,3 p.1470], described in this article, of the…
The interval numbers is the set of compact intervals of $\mathbb{R}$ with addition and multiplication operation, which are very useful for solving calculations where there are intervals of error or uncertainty, however, it lacks an…
Uchiyama showed that every interval $(n, n + c n^{1/4})$ contains an integer that is the sum of two squares, where $c= 2^{3/2}$. He also conjectured a minimal value of $c$ such that the above statement still holds. We investigate this…
