The variety of sums of powers of a homogeneous polynomial of degree d in n variables is defined and investigated in some examples, old and new. These varieties are studied via apolarity and syzygies. Classical results of Sylvester (1851),…

We consider the theory of algebraically closed fields of characteristic zero with multivalued operations $x\mapsto x^r$ (raising to powers). It is in fact the theory of equations in exponential sums. In an earlier paper we have described…

We prove that, for almost all $r \leq N^{1/2}/\log^{O(1)}N$, for any given $b_1 \mod r$ with $(b_1, r) = 1$, and for almost all $b_2 \mod r$ with $(b_2, r) = 1$, we have that almost all natural numbers $2n \leq N$ with $2n \equiv b_1 + b_2…

The sum in the title is a rational multiple of pi^n for all integers n=2,3,4,... for which the sum converges absolutely. This is equivalent to a celebrated theorem of Euler. Of the many proofs that have appeared since Euler, a simple one…

We show that infinitely many three-term arithmetic progressions $N, N+d, N+2d$ of powerful numbers exist with $d = 2\sqrt{N} + 1$. We further conjecture that infinitely many of these progressions consist of three consecutive terms in the…

In this paper, we derive a formula for the sums of powers of the first $n$ positive integers, $S_k(n)$, that involves the hyperharmonic numbers and the Stirling numbers of the second kind. Then, using an explicit representation for the…

In this paper, we discuss sums of powers of the positive integers and compute both the exponential and ordinary generating functions for these sums. We express these generating functions in terms of exponential and geometric polynomials and…

We study Birkhoff sums over rotations (series of the form $\sum_{r=1}^{N}\phi(r\alpha)$), in which the summed function $\phi$ may be unbounded at the origin. Estimates of these sums have been of significant interest and application in pure…
