We find a nontrivial upper bound on the average value of the function M(n) which associates to every positive integer n the minimal Hamming weight of a multiple of n. Some new results about the equation M(n)=M(n') are given.

The transversal number $\tau(H)$ of a hypergraph $H$ is the minimum number of vertices that intersect every edge of $H$. A linear hypergraph is one in which every two distinct edges intersect in at most one vertex. A $k$-uniform hypergraph…

Let $L_n(k)$ denote the least common multiple of $k$ independent random integers uniformly chosen in $\{1,2,\ldots ,n\}$. In this note, using a purely probabilistic approach, we derive a criterion for the convergence in distribution as…

Let $L$ be a finite Galois extension of the number field $K$. We unconditionally bound the least prime ideal of $K$ occurring in the Chebotarev Density Theorem as a power of the discriminant of $L$ with an explicit exponent. We also…

For $n\ge 3$ let $f(n)$ be the least positive integer $k$ such that $\binom nk>\frac{2^n}{n+1}$. In this paper we investigate the properties of $f(n)$.

For a real c\`{a}dl\`{a}g function f and a positive constant c we find another c\`{a}dl\`{a}g function, which has the smallest total variation pos- sible among all functions uniformly approximating f with accuracy c/2. The solution is…

In this note we improve an algorithm from a recent paper by Bauer and Bennett for computing a function of Erd\"os that measures the minimal gap size $f(k)$ in the sequence of integers at least one of whose prime factors exceeds $k$. This…

Let $G$ be a connected and simply connected semisimple algebraic group over $\Bbb Q$ and let $\Gamma\subset G(\Bbb Q)$ be an arithmetic subgroup. Let $K_\infty\subset G(\Bbb R)$ be a maximal compact subgroup and let $d$ be the dimension of…

Let $E_0,\ldots,E_n$ be a partition of the set of prime numbers, and define $E_j(x) := \sum_{p \in E_j \atop p \leq x} \frac{1}{p}$. Define $\pi(x;\mathbf{E},\mathbf{k})$ to be the number of integers $n \leq x$ with $k_j$ prime factors in…

We derive some new results on the k-th barycentric Olson constants of abelian groups (mainly cyclic). This quantity, for a finite abelian (additive) group (G,+), is defined as the smallest integer l such that each subset A of G with at…

By using the elementary symmetric polynomials and some results of number theory, we solve the well known problem of Lehmer on Euler's totient function. As application, we obtain a new characterization of prime numbers.

The $k$-coprime graph of order $n$ is the graph with vertex set $\{k, k+1, \ldots, k+n-1\}$ in which two vertices are adjacent if and only if they are coprime. We characterize Hamiltonian $k$-coprime graphs. As a particular case, two…

Let $p(n)$ denote the partition function. In this article, we will show that congruences of the form $$ p(m^j\ell^kn+B)\equiv 0\mod m \text{for all} n\ge 0 $$ exist for all primes $m$ and $\ell$ satisfying $m\ge 13$ and $\ell\neq 2,3,m$.…

We show that for any union-closed family $\mathcal{F} \subseteq 2^{[n]}, \mathcal{F} \neq \{\emptyset\}$, there exists an $i \in [n]$ which is contained in a $0.01$ fraction of the sets in $\mathcal{F}$. This is the first known constant…

Let $K$ be a compact set in $\rd$ with positive Hausdorff dimension. Using a Fractional Brownian Motion, we prove that in a prevalent set of continuous functions on $K$, the Hausdorff dimension of the graph is equal to $\dim_{\mathcal…

Dan Romik recently considered the Taylor coefficients of the Jacobi theta function around the complex multiplication point $i$. He then conjectured that the Taylor coefficients $d(n)$ either vanish or are periodic modulo any prime ${p}$;…

Let $K$ be a nonempty finite subset of the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^k$ $(k\ge 2)$. We prove that if a function $f\colon \mathbb{R}^k\to \mathbb{C}$ is such that the sum of $f$ on every congruent copy of $K$ is zero, then $f$ vanishes…

We establish an explicit bound for the least prime occurring in the Chebotarev density theorem without any restriction. Let $L/K$ be any Galois extension of number fields such that $L\not=\mathbb{Q}$, and let $C$ be a conjugacy class in the…

For a {\em simple Euclidean Jordan algebra}, let $\mathfrak{co}$ be its conformal algebra, $\mathscr P$ be the manifold consisting of its semi-positive rank-one elements, $C^\infty(\mathscr P)$ be the space of complex-valued smooth…

Let $A$ be a set in an abelian group $G$. For integers $h,r \geq 1$ the generalized $h$-fold sumset, denoted by $h^{(r)}A$, is the set of sums of $h$ elements of $A$, where each element appears in the sum at most $r$ times. If…
