We establish an elementary, but rather striking pattern concerning the quartic residues of primes $p$ that are congruent to 5 modulo 8. Let $g$ be a generator of the multiplicative group of $\mathbb Z_p$ and let $M$ be the $4\times 4$…

This paper outlines a solution to the Straus Erd\H{o}s Conjecture. Namely for each prime $p$ there exists positive integers $x \leq y \leq z$ so that $$ \frac{4}{p} = \frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}+\frac{1}{z} $$

Let m(n) be the number of ordered factorizations of n in factors larger than 1. We prove that for every eps>0 n^{rho} m(n) < exp[(log n)^{1/rho}/(loglog n)^{1+eps}] holds for all integers n>n_0, while, for a constant c>0, n^{rho} m(n) >…

Recently, Andrews, Hirschhorn and Sellers have proven congruences modulo 3 for four types of partitions using elementary series manipulations. In this paper, we generalize their congruences using arithmetic properties of certain quadratic…

We study the complexity of computing Kronecker coefficients $g(\lambda,\mu,\nu)$. We give explicit bounds in terms of the number of parts $\ell$ in the partitions, their largest part size $N$ and the smallest second part $M$ of the three…

We prove that for every nonnegative integer $m$ there exists an $\varepsilon>0$ such that if $\lambda\in (0,\varepsilon]$ and $x$ is sufficiently large in terms of $m$, then the number of positive integers $n\leq x$ for which the interval…

We study the existence of non-collision periodic solutions with Newtonian potentials for the following planar restricted 4-body problems: Assume that the given positive masses $m_{1},m_{2},m_{3}$ in a Lagrange configuration move in circular…

We establish some upper bounds for the number of integer solutions to the Thue inequality $|F(x , y)| \leq m$, where $F$ is a binary form of degree $n \geq 3$ and with non-zero discriminant $D$, and $m$ is an integer. Our upper bounds are…

It is conjectured that for every pair $(\ell,m)$ of odd integers greater than 2 with $m \equiv 1\; \pmod{\ell}$, there exists a cyclic two-factorization of $K_{\ell m}$ having exactly $(m-1)/2$ factors of type $\ell^m$ and all the others of…

Let M and N be internally 4-connected binary matroids such that M has a proper N-minor, and |E(N)| is at least seven. As part of our project to develop a splitter theorem for internally 4-connected binary matroids, we prove the following…

We consider the classical geometric problem of prescribing the scalar and boundary mean curvatures via conformal deformation of the metric on a $n-$dimensional compact Riemannian manifold. We deal with the case of negative scalar curvature…

The Carmichael lambda function $\lambda(n)$ is defined to be the smallest positive integer $m$ such that $a^m$ is congruent to 1 modulo $n,$ for all $a$ and $n$ relatively prime. The function $\lambda_k(n)$ is defined to be the $k$th…

In this article, we study the combinatorics of congruence subgroups of the modular group. More precisely, we consider the notion of minimal monomial solutions. These are the solutions of a matrix equation (also appearing in the study of…

Two algorithms for computing $P(n,m)$, the number of integer partitions of $n$ into exactly $m$ parts, are described, and using a combination of these two algorithms, the resulting algorithm is $O(n^{3/2})$. The second algorithm uses a list…

Let $\{E_n\}$ be the Euler numbers. In the paper we determine $E_{2^mk+b}-E_b$ modulo $2^{m+7}$, where $k$ and $m$ are positive integers and $b\in{0,2,4,...}$.

In this survey article, we are interested on minimal triangulations of closed pl manifolds. We present a brief survey on the works done in last 25 years on the following: (i) Finding the minimal number of vertices required to triangulate a…

In the pinwheel problem, one is given an $m$-tuple of positive integers $(a_1, \ldots, a_m)$ and asked whether the integers can be partitioned into $m$ color classes $C_1,\ldots,C_m$ such that every interval of length $a_i$ has non-empty…

We classify parallelizable noncommutative manifold structures on finite sets of small size in the general formalism of framed quantum manifolds and vielbeins introduced previously. The full moduli space is found for $\le 3$ points, and a…

The problem that we consider is the following: given an $n \times n$ array $A$ of positive numbers, find a tiling using at most $p$ rectangles (which means that each array element must be covered by some rectangle and no two rectangles must…

It will be demonstrated that there is a thin basis of order four of minimal cardinality #A(x) = O(x^.25). The current literature shows the existence of a thin basis of order four of cardinality #A(x) = O(x^(.25+{\epsilon}), {\epsilon} > 0,…
