In a previous paper, the authors proved that in any system of three linear forms satisfying obvious necessary local conditions, there are at least two forms that infinitely often assume $E_2$-values; i.e., values that are products of…

We establish that every set of $k=10$ natural numbers determines at least $30$ distinct pairwise sums or at least $30$ distinct pairwise products, as well as the analogous result for $k=11$ and at least $34$ sums/products, with sharpness…

In this paper we continue our study, begun in part I, of the exceptional set of integers, not restricted by elementary congruence conditions, which cannot be represented as sums of three or four squares of primes. We correct a serious…

This notes gives several criteria which exclude the existence of discretely self-similar solutions of the three dimensional incompressible Euler equations.

We study the problem of perfect tiling in the plane and exploring the possibility of tiling a rectangle using integral distinct squares. Assume a set of distinguishable squares (or equivalently a set of distinct natural numbers) is given,…

Let $H_n =\sum\limits_{k=1}^n \frac{1}{k}$ be the $n$-th harmonic number. Euler extended it to complex arguments and defined $H_r$ for any complex number $r$ except for the negative integers. In this paper, we give a new proof of the…

We give a new sufficient criteria to prove the uniqueness of the incompressible Euler equation in dimension $N\geq2$. In their celebrated works by V. Scheffer [18], A. Shnirelman [19], C. De Lellis and L. Sz\'ekelyhidi Jr. [7] they have…

We construct smooth axisymmetric-with-swirl initial data in a periodic cylinder for which the three-dimensional incompressible Euler evolution develops a finite-time boundary singularity. The construction is carried out in the dynamically…

Recently de Thanhoffer de V\"olcsey and Van den Bergh classified the Euler forms on a free abelian group of rank 4 having the properties of the Euler form of a smooth projective surface. There are two types of solutions: one corresponding…

In the Euclidean plane ${\bf{E}}^2$, fix four pairwise distinct points \begin{equation*} \label{eqA} \begin{array}{ccc} A=(a_1,a_2),\ B=(b_1,b_2),\ C=(c_1,c_2),\ D=(d_1,d_2), \end{array} \end{equation*} together with four non-zero real…

Weird numbers are abundant numbers that are not pseudoperfect. Since their introduction, the existence of odd weird numbers has been an open problem. In this work, we describe our computational effort to search for odd weird numbers, which…

In this short paper we prove that the square of an odd prime number cannot be a very perfect number.

We show that for infinitely many square-free integers q there exist infinitely many triples of rational numbers {a, b, c} such that a^2 + q, b^2 + q, c^2 + q, ab + q, ac + q and bc + q are squares of rational numbers.

Let $E(N)$ denote the number of positive integers $n \le N$, with $n \equiv 4 \pmod{24}$, which cannot be represented as the sum of four squares of primes. We establish that $E(N)\ll N^{11/32}$, thus improving on an earlier result of Harman…

In a recent preprint on arXiv Roland Bacher showed that the number $p_d$ of non-similar perfect $d$-dimensional quadratic forms satisfies $e^{\Omega(d)} < p_d < e^{O(d^3\log(d))}$. We improve the upper bound to $e^{O(d^2\log(d))}$ by a…

We study some counting questions concerning products of positive integers $u_1, \ldots, u_n$ which form a non-zero perfect square, or more generally, a perfect $k$-th power. We obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of such integers of…

Whether the 3D incompressible Euler equations can develop a singularity in finite time from smooth initial data is one of the most challenging problems in mathematical fluid dynamics. This work attempts to provide an affirmative answer to…
