This article provides a simple geometric interpretation of the quadratic formula. The geometry helps to demystify the formula's complex appearance and casts it into a much simpler existence, thus potentially benefits early algebra students.

We study integrals of the form \begin{equation*} \int_{-1}^1(C_n^{(\lambda)}(x))^2(1-x)^\alpha (1+x)^\beta\, dx, \end{equation*} where $C_n^{(\lambda)}$ denotes the Gegenbauer-polynomial of index $\lambda>0$ and $\alpha,\beta>-1$. We give…

The logarithmic corotational derivative is a key concept in rate-type constitutive relations in continuum mechanics. The derivative is defined in terms of the logarithmic spin tensor, which is a skew-symmetric tensor/matrix given by a…

We study the fundamental problem of the calculus of variations with variable order fractional operators. Fractional integrals are considered in the sense of Riemann-Liouville while derivatives are of Caputo type.

We derive the gravitational Lagrangian to all orders of curvature when the canonical constraint algebra is deformed by a phase space function as predicted by some studies into loop quantum cosmology. The deformation function seems to be…

A discrete Laplace transform and its inversion formula are obtained by using a quadrature of the continuous Fourier transform which is given in terms of Hermite polynomials and its zeros. This approach yields a convergent discrete formula…

We derive the Lagrangians of the higher-order Painlev\'e equations using Jacobi's last multiplier technique. Some of these higher-order differential equations display certain remarkable properties like passing the Painlev\'e test and…

The Nevanlinna matrix of a half-line Jacobi operator coincides, up to multiplication with a constant matrix, with the monodromy matrix of an associated canonical system. This canonical system is discrete in a certain sense, and is…

In this paper, we obtain analogues of Jacobi's derivative formula in terms of the theta constants with rational characteristics. For this purpose, we use the arithmetic formulas of the number of representations of a natural number…

We describe a type system for the linear-algebraic $\lambda$-calculus. The type system accounts for the linear-algebraic aspects of this extension of $\lambda$-calculus: it is able to statically describe the linear combinations of terms…

In this note, we prove that under some conditions, certain products of integers related to Gauss factorials are always quadratic residues.

We build on our previous paper \cite{constructive} by using the general method introduced there in conjunction with invariant theory. This yields quantifier elimination results for the classical quaternions, octonions, as well as other…

Using the fractional derivative, considered in the Caputo sense, we study an analytical technique associated with the variational iteration method for the fractional generalized $\alpha$-time Burgers' equation with $\alpha>0$ and obtain…

This paper provides a general proof of a relationship theorem between nonlinear analogue polynomial equations and the corresponding Jacobian matrix, presented recently by the present author. This theorem is also verified generally effective…

Let $\chi(A)$ denote the characteristic polynomial of a matrix $A$ over a field; a standard result of linear algebra states that $\chi(A^{-1})$ is the reciprocal polynomial of $\chi(A)$. More formally, the condition $\chi^n(X)…

Iterating Newton's method symbolically for the general quadratic yields a rational function, the numerator and denominator of which are polynomials with highly composite coefficients.

We determine the quadratic points on the modular curves $X_0(N)$ for $N\leq 100$ for which this has not been previously done, namely the cases $$N\in\{66,70,78,82,84,86,87,88,90,96,99\}.$$ We accomplish this by improving on the ``going down…

We consider a translation invariant linear equation in four variables with integer coefficients of the form: $ax_1 +bx_2= cy_1+dy_2$. The main result of the paper states that any set on the real line with Fourier dimension greater than 1/2…

It is well-known that for $p=1, 2, 3, 7, 11, 19, 43, 67, 163$, the class number of $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-p})$ is one. We use this fact to determine all the solutions of $x^2+p^m=4y^n$ in non-negative integers $x, y, m$ and $n$.

We define and study the counterpart of the Wiener algebra in the quaternionic setting, both for the discrete and continuous case. We prove a Wiener-L\'evy type theorem and a factorization theorem. We give applications to Toeplitz and…
