Let A be a set of integers dense in a finite interval. We establish upper and lower bounds for the longest regularly-spaced and convex subsets of A and of A-A.

In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of the maximum magnitude of a complex random polynomial with i.i.d. uniformly distributed random roots on the unit circle. More specifically, let $\{n_k\}_{k=1}^{\infty}$ be an infinite…

The set of indices that correspond to the positive entries of a sequence of numbers is called its positivity set. In this paper, we study the density of the positivity set of a given linear recurrence sequence, that is the question of how…

We consider $O(1)$ dense loop model in a square lattice wrapped on a cylinder of odd circumference $L$ and calculate the exact densities of loops. These densities of loops are equal to the densities of critical bond percolation clusters on…

Let $[x]$ be the greatest integer not exceeding $x$. In the paper we introduce the sequence $\{U_n\}$ given by $U_0=1$ and $U_n=-2\sum_{k=1}^{[n/2]}\binom n{2k}U_{n-2k}\quad(n\ge 1)$, and establish many recursive formulas and congruences…

We provide, for any $r\in (0,1)$, lower and upper bounds on the maximal density of a packing in the Euclidean plane of discs of radius $1$ and $r$. The lower bounds are mostly folk, but the upper bounds improve the best previously known…

Let F be a finite union-closed family of sets whose largest set contains n elements. In \cite{Wojcik92}, Wojcik defined the density of F to be the ratio of the average set size of F to n and conjectured that the minimum density over all…

We consider packings of the plane using discs of radius 1 and r=0.545151... . The value of r admits compact packings in which each hole in the packing is formed by three discs which are tangent to each other. We prove that the largest…

We study higher order convexity properties of random point sets in the unit square. Given $n$ uniform i.i.d random points, we derive asymptotic estimates for the maximal number of them which are in $k$-monotone position, subject to mild…

Let $\{U_n\}_{n \geq 0}$ and $\{V_m\}_{m \geq 0}$ be two linear recurrence sequences. We establish an asymptotic formula for the number of integers $c$ in the range $[-x, x]$ which can be represented as differences $ U_n - V_m$. In…

In this paper we study the density in the real line of oscillating sequences of the form $$ (g(k)\cdot F(k\alpha))_{k \in \mathbb{N}} ,$$ where $g$ is a positive increasing function and $F$ a real continuous 1-periodic function. This…

Many famous integer sequences including the Catalan numbers and the Motzkin numbers can be expressed in the form $ConstantTermOf\left[P(x)^nQ(x)\right]$ for Laurent polynomials $Q$, and symmetric Laurent trinomials $P$. In this paper we…

Let $U$ be a Lucas sequence, $p$ be prime, and $\rho_U(p)$ be the rank of appearance of $p$ in $U$. We derive closed-form formulas for the Dirichlet density of primes $p$ for which $d\mid \rho_U(p)$, where $d\geq 1$ is a fixed integer. Our…

We investigate the evolution of the galaxy population since redshift 2 with a focus on the colour bimodality and mass density of the red sequence. We obtain precise and reliable photometric redshifts up to z=2 by supplementing the optical…

We study the optimal packing of hard spheres in an infinitely long cylinder, using simulated annealing, and compare our results with the analogous problem of packing disks on the unrolled surface of a cylinder. The densest structures are…

A tight cycle in an $r$-uniform hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ is a sequence of $\ell\geq r+1$ vertices $x_1,\dots,x_{\ell}$ such that all $r$-tuples $\{x_{i},x_{i+1},\dots,x_{i+r-1}\}$ (with subscripts modulo $\ell$) are edges of $\mathcal{H}$.…

An $N$-superconcentrator is a directed, acyclic graph with $N$ input nodes and $N$ output nodes such that every subset of the inputs and every subset of the outputs of same cardinality can be connected by node-disjoint paths. It is known…

A straightforward determination of the circular-speed curve vc(R) of the Milky Way suggests that near the Sun, vc starts to rise approximately linearly with R. If this result were correct, the Galactic mass density would have to be…

The rich variety of densest columnar structures of identical hard spheres inside a cylinder can surprisingly be constructed from a simple and computationally fast sequential deposition of cylinder-touching spheres, if the cylinder-to-sphere…

Let $\{U_n\}_{n \geqslant 0}$ and $\{G_m\}_{m \geqslant 0}$ be two linear recurrence sequences defined over the integers. We establish an asymptotic formula for the number of integers $c$ in the range $[-x, x]$ which can be represented as…
