For a sequence $S$ over a finite abelian group, let $MZ(S)$ denote the length of the shortest nonempty zero-sum subsequence of $S$. We prove that if $G$ is finite abelian of order $n$ and $S$ has length $n$, then $MZ(S)\le n-|\supp(S)|+1$.…

In this paper we consider the distribution of large central values of Dirichlet L-functions over cosets of the group of characters modulo q via Soundararajan's resonator method.

We disprove the sum-product conjecture for real numbers by constructing arbitrarily large $A\subset \mathbb{R}$ (whose elements are algebraic integers in a number field of degree $\asymp \log\lvert A\rvert$) such that \[\max(\lvert…

In 1988, William Duke showed that CM points of fundamental discriminant $D$ are equidistributed in the complex upper half-plane $\mathcal H$ as $D \to -\infty$. He also showed a similar result for RM curves (a positive discriminant analog…

Analyzing in detail the analytic continuation of the Riemann zeta function we are able to generate several new identities which may be useful for application in physics and mathematics.

We prove two conjectures on the spaces generated by multiple $q$-zeta values. More precisely, we show that the spaces $Z_q^{\mathrm{o}}$ and $Z_{q,1}^{\mathrm{o}}$ already generate the larger spaces $Z_q$ and $Z_{q,1}$, respectively. Our…

Motivated by the Engel and Pierce expansions, we introduce a signed Engel expansion. We expand each $x\in(0,1)\setminus\mathbb{Q}$ uniquely as…

Let $C_n=n2^n+1$ denote the $n$th Cullen number. There has been recent interest in finding all Cullen numbers having a given Diophantine property. We prove that, for a fixed integer $k$ and bounded integers $a_1,\ldots,a_k$, the greatest…

In this paper, we study a class of double Lambert series and establish several identities and transformation relations for them. These formulae provide useful tools for reducing certain double Lambert series to single Lambert series. As…

The Lonely Runner Conjecture states that if $k+1$ runners start at the same point on a unit-length circular track and run with distinct constant speeds, then each runner is at some time at least $1/(k+1)$-distant from every other runner.…

The notion of good integers, namely the divisors of the sequence $(a^s+b^s)_{s\ge 1}$ for nonzero coprime integers $a$ and $b$, together with their subfamilies such as oddly-good and evenly-good integers, has become an important arithmetic…

In this paper, we give a new definition of the $q$-weight of zeros, which reduces to the multiplicity of zeros as $q\to 1$. Furthermore, we obtain a $q$-difference version of the Stothers-Mason theorem by means of the new definition of the…

We study a multiplicative function analogue of Linnik's problem on the least prime in an arithmetic progression. Let $h\colon \mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{R}\setminus\{0\}$ be a multiplicative function, and let $a \pmod q$ be a reduced residue…

In this paper, we extend the work of \cite{Chahal} in several directions. We first determine all Heron triangles that tightly circumscribe the unit circle and the associated $\tau$-congruent numbers generated by them. We then characterize…

In additive number theory, a finite set $A$ of integers is an $h$-basis for $n$ if every integer in $\{0,1,2,\ldots, n\}$ can be represented as the sum of exactly $h$ not necessarily distinct elements of $A$. This paper introduces a new…

We study the continuous part of the Dirichlet spectrum $\mathbb{D}$ and improve the best previously published upper bound for the ray-origin constant $\delta$. Building on and refining V. A. Ivanov's approach, we introduce a Cantor-type set…

Berggren and Popovi\'c introduced quadratic-permutation-polynomial interleaved Zadoff--Chu sequences and, from exhaustive data, conjectured that all normalized QPP-interleaved Zadoff--Chu sequences are inequivalent to ordinary Zadoff--Chu…

We prove two determinant evaluations attached to Sun's conjectures on matrices of Legendre symbols. The first one resolves the \(p\equiv1\pmod4\) part of Conjecture 4.8(i) by reducing the determinant with four indeterminates to a four-entry…

Sun proposed a list of congruence and quadratic-residue conjectures for determinants and permanents over residue classes modulo a prime. This article gives a uniform treatment of Conjectures 4.6, 4.7, 4.8(ii), 4.9, 4.10(ii), 4.11 and 4.12…

We study the Diophantine equation $\displaystyle{\tfrac{a+1}{b} + \tfrac{b+1}{a} \ = \ k}$, where $k$ is an integer. Using Vieta jumping, we completely classify all positive integer pairs $(a, \, b)$. We prove that the associated integer…
