Given a partition $\{E_0,\ldots,E_n\}$ of the set of primes and a vector $\mathbf{k} \in \mathbb{N}_0^{n+1}$, we compute an asymptotic formula for the quantity $|\{m \leq x: \omega_{E_j}(m) = k_j \ \forall \ 0 \leq j \leq n\}|$ uniformly in…

Let $A$ be an $n$ by $N$ real valued random matrix, and $\h$ denote the $N$-dimensional hypercube. For numerous random matrix ensembles, the expected number of $k$-dimensional faces of the random $n$-dimensional zonotope $A\h$ obeys the…

We prove new formulas and congruences for $p(n,k):=$ the number of partitions of $n$ into $k$ parts and $q(n,k):=$ the number of partitions of $n$ into $k$ distinct parts. Also, we give lower and upper bounds for the density of the set…

We derive an asymptotic formula for $A(n,j,r)$ the number of integer partitions of $n$ into at most $j$ parts each part $\le r$. We assume $j$ and $r$ are near their mean values. We also investigate the second largest part, the number of…

In this paper, we investigate $\pi(m,n)$, the number of partitions of the \emph{bipartite number} $(m,n)$ into \emph{steadily decreasing} parts, introduced by L.Carlitz ['A problem in partitions', Duke Math Journal 30 (1963), 203--213]. We…

We study the properties of the maximal volume $k$-dimensional sections of the $n$-dimensional cube $[-1,1]^n$. We obtain a first order necessary condition for a $k$-dimensional subspace to be a local maximizer of the volume of such…

An effective upper bound is established for the least non-trivial integer solution to the system of cubic forms \[ \begin{cases} F = c_{1}x_1^3 + c_{2}x_2^3 + \cdots + c_{n}x_n^3 = 0, \\ G = d_{1}x_1^3 + d_{2}x_2^3 + \cdots + d_{n}x_n^3 =…

We show that there is a constant $K > 0$ such that for all $N, s \in \N$, $s \le N$, the point set consisting of $N$ points chosen uniformly at random in the $s$-dimensional unit cube $[0,1]^s$ with probability at least $1-\exp(-\Theta(s))$…

Suppose that i.i.d. random variables $X_{1}, X_{2}, \ldots$ are chosen uniformly from $[0,1]$, and let $f: [0,1] \rightarrow [0,1]$ be an increasing bijection. Define $\mu_{f}$ to be the expected value of $f(X_{i})$ for each $i$. Define the…

For any positive integer $n$ along with parameters $\alpha$ and $\nu$, we define and investigate $\alpha$-shifted, $\nu$-offset, floor sequences of length $n$. We find exact and asymptotic formulas for the number of integers in such a…

The no-(k+1)-in line problem seeks the maximum number of points that can be selected from an $n \times n$ square lattice such that no $k+1$ of them are collinear. The problem was first posed more than $100$ years ago for the special case…

We fix a maximal order $\mathcal O$ in $\F=\R,\C$ or $\mathbb{H}$, and an $\F$-hermitian form $Q$ of signature $(n,1)$ with coefficients in $\mathcal O$. Let $k\in\N$. By applying a lattice point theorem on the $\F$-hyperbolic space, we…

Letting $p$ vary over all primes and $E$ vary over all elliptic curves over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_p$, we study the frequency to which a given group $G$ arises as a group of points $E(\mathbb{F}_p)$. It is well-known that the only…
