Given a finite subset S in F_p^d, let a(S) be the number of distinct r-tuples (x_1,...,x_r) in S such that x_1+...+x_r = 0. We consider the "moments" F(m,n) = sum_|S|=n a(S)^m. Specifically, we present an explicit formula for F(m,n) as a…

We define Boolean algebras in the linear context and study its symmetric powers. We give explicit formulae for products in symmetric Boolean algebras of various dimensions. We formulate symmetric forms of the inclusion-exclusion principle.

A formal sum $\sum_n f(S_n)$ may be seen as the integral $\int f dN$ with respect to random point process $N(A)=|\{n:S_n\in A\}|$. We study its convergence beyond the well known context of Lebesgue integrable functions, admitting…

In this paper we extend the idea of integration to generic algebras. In particular we concentrate over a class of algebras, that we will call self-conjugated, having the property of possessing equivalent right and left multiplication…

The one-sided and full Hilbert transforms are evaluated exactly by means of the method of finite-part integration [E.A. Galapon, \textit{Proc. Roy. Soc. A} \textbf{473}, 20160567 (2017)]. In general, the result consists of two terms -- the…

Let $\mathcal{F}=\{F_1,F_2, \ldots,F_n\}$ be a family of $n$ sets on a ground set $S$, such as a family of balls in $\mathbb{R}^d$. For every finite measure $\mu$ on $S$, such that the sets of $\mathcal{F}$ are measurable, the classical…

Let $A$ be a nonempty finite set of $k$ integers. Given a subset $B$ of $A$, the sum of all elements of $B$, denoted by $s(B)$, is called the subset sum of $B$. For a nonnegative integer $\alpha$ ($\leq k$), let \[\Sigma_{\alpha}…

This paper investigates summability principles for multilinear summing operators. The main result presents a novel inclusion theorem for a class of summing operators, which generalizes several classical results. As applications, we derive…

In this note, we present a conjecture on intersections of set families, and a rephrasing of the conjecture in terms of principal downsets of Boolean lattices. The conjecture informally states that, whenever we can express the measure of a…

Integration at a point is a new kind of integration derived from integration over an interval in infinitesimal and infinity domains which are spaces larger than the reals. Consider a continuous monotonic divergent function that is…

Denoting by Sigma(S) the set of subset sums of a subset S of a finite abelian group G, we prove that |Sigma(S)| >= |S|(|S|+2)/4-1 whenever S is symmetric, |G| is odd and Sigma(S) is aperiodic. Up to an additive constant of 2 this result is…

An expression $E(X_{1},...,X_{n})$ built using union, intersection, and complements is called inclusion-exclusion-like if, like the union in the exclusion-inclusion principle, there are constants $c_{1},c_{2},...,c_{n}$ so that for any…

This paper presents a noncommutative theory of symmetric functions, based on the notion of quasi-determinant. We begin with a formal theory, corresponding to the case of symmetric functions in an infinite number of independent variables.…

In this paper, we study the alternating Euler $T$-sums and related sums by using the method of contour integration. We establish the explicit formulas for all linear and quadratic Euler $T$-sums and related sums. Some interesting new…

Here we generalize the concept of spatial tensor product, introduced by Skeide, of two product systems via a pair of normalized units. This new notion is called amalgamated tensor product of product systems, and now the amalgamation can be…

We consider analytic functions of the Riemann zeta type, for which, if $s$ is a zero, so is $1-s$. We use infinite product representations of these functions, assuming their zeros to be of first order. We use exponential factors to…

Consider a sum of convex functions, where the only information known about each individual summand is the location of a minimizer. In this work, we give an exact characterization of the set of possible minimizers of the sum. Our results…

The concepts of symmetry and its breakdown are investigated in two different terms according to whether the resulting asymmetry is universal or only obtained for a special configuration: we shall illustrate this by considering in the first…

Let A, B and S be three subsets of a finite Abelian group G. The restricted sumset of A and B with respect to S is defined as A\wedge^{S} B= {a+b: a in A, b in B and a-b not in S}. Let L_S=max_{z in G}| {(x,y): x,y in G, x+y=z and x-y in…

Let R be the ring of S-integers of an algebraic function field (in one variable) over a perfect field, where S is finite and not empty. It is shown that for every positive integer N there exist elements of R that can not be written as a sum…
