Ramanujan (and others) proved that the partition function satisfies a number of striking congruences modulo powers of 5, 7 and 11. A number of further congruences were shown by the works of Atkin, O'Brien, and Newman. In this paper we prove…

Let $[n]$ denote $\{0,1, ... , n-1\}$. A polynomial $f(x) = \sum a_i x^i$ is a Littlewood polynomial (LP) of length $n$ if the $a_i$ are $\pm 1$ for $i \in [n]$, and $a_i = 0$ for $i \ge n$. Such an LP is said to have order $m$ if it is…

We consider the fourth-order Schr\"odinger equation $$ i\partial_tu+\Delta^2 u+\mu\Delta u+\lambda|u|^\alpha u=0, $$ where $\alpha>0,\mu=\pm1$ or $0$ and $\lambda\in\mathbb{C}$. Firstly, we prove local well-posedness in…

Let $M$ be a $3$-connected binary matroid; $M$ is internally $4$-connected if one side of every $3$-separation is a triangle or a triad, and $M$ is $(4,4,S)$-connected if one side of every $3$-separation is a triangle, a triad, or a…

In 1950, Erd\H{o}s posed a question known as the minimum modulus problem on covering systems for $\mathbb{Z}$, which asked whether the minimum modulus of a covering system with distinct moduli is bounded. This long-standing problem was…

The Collatz Conjecture can be stated as: using the reduced Collatz function $C(n) = (3n+1)/2^x$ where $2^x$ is the largest power of 2 that divides $3n+1$, any odd integer $n$ will eventually reach 1 in $j$ iterations such that $C^j(n) = 1$.…

Let $a, b, c,$ and $n$ be integers, with $a$ nonzero and $n$ at least two. Necessary and sufficient conditions on these parameters are derived which guarantee that all solutions of the congruence \[ ax^2+bx+c \equiv 0\ \textrm{mod}\ n \]…

We classify quadruples $(M,g,m,\tau)$ in which $(M,g)$ is a compact K\"ahler manifold of complex dimension $m>2$ with a nonconstant function $\tau$ on $M$ such that the conformally related metric $g/\tau^2$, defined wherever $\tau\ne 0$, is…

It is proven that every cohomology class of the moduli space $M_{g,m}$ for any $2g+m\geq 3$, $m\geq 1$ can be represented combinatorially by a ribbon quiver with at most four-valent vertices. The "at most four"-valency condition is sharp.

We present a new approach to deal with Fraenkel's conjecture, which describes how the integers can be partitioned into sets of rational Beatty sequences, in the case where the numerators of the moduli are equal. We use this approach to give…

Let $M$ be a $3$-connected binary matroid; $M$ is called internally $4$-connected if one side of every $3$-separation is a triangle or a triad, and $M$ is $(4,4,S)$-connected if one side of every $3$-separation is a triangle, a triad, or a…

In this paper we study the modular differential equation $y''+s\,E_4\, y=0$ where $E_4$ is the weight 4 Eisenstein series and $s=\pi^2r^2$ with $r=n/m$ being a rational number in reduced form such that $m\geq 7$. This study is carried out…

In this note, we study the classification of $\mathbb{Z}_4$-codes. For some special cases $(k_1,k_2)$, by hand, we give a classification of $\mathbb{Z}_4$-codes of length $n$ and type $4^{k_1}2^{k_2}$ satisfying a certain condition. Our…

We definitively solve the old problem of finding a minimal integrity basis of polynomial invariants of the fourth-order elasticity tensor C. Decomposing C into its SO(3)-irreducible components we reduce this problem to finding joint…

We show that if $M$ is an orientable 4-dimensional infrasolvmanifold and either $\beta=\beta_1(M;\mathbb{Q})\geq2$ or $M$ is a $\mathbb{S}ol_0^4$- or a $\mathbb{S}ol_{m,n}^4$-manifold (with $m\not=n$) then $M$ is parallelizable. There are…

In 1933, Borsuk made a conjecture that every $n$-dimensional bounded set can be divided into $n+1$ subsets of smaller diameter. Up to now, the problem is still open for $4\leq n\leq 63$. In this paper, we firstly discuss the Banach-Mazur…

Let $\Delta(n)$ denote the smallest positive integer $m$ such that $a^3+a(1\le a\le n)$ are pairwise distinct modulo $m$. The purpose of this paper is to determine $\Delta(n)$ for all positive integers $n$.

We study a renormalized coupling g and mass m in four dimensional phi^4 theory on tori with finite size z=mL. Precise numerical values close to the continuum limit are reported for z=1,2,4, based on Monte Carlo simulations performed in the…

We try to find all quadruples of positive integers $(m,a,b,c)$ with $a \geq b \geq c$ such that there exists a distinct covering system with minimum modulus $m$ and least common multiple of the moduli $2^a 3^b 5^c$. We obtain complete…

Lagrange's four-square theorem states that every natural number $n$ can be represented as the sum of four integer squares: $n=x_1^2+x_2^2+x_3^2+x_4^2$. Ramanujan generalized Lagrange's result by providing, up to equivalence, all $54$…
