Let $G$ be a finite additive abelian group with exponent $n$ and $S=g_{1}\cdots g_{t}$ be a sequence of elements in $G$. For any element $g$ of $G$ and $A\subseteq\{1,2,\ldots,n-1\}$, let $N_{A,g}(S)$ denote the number of subsequences…
Let $G$ be a finite abelian group, and let $f: G \to \C$ be a complex function on $G$. The uncertainty principle asserts that the support $\supp(f) := \{x \in G: f(x) \neq 0\}$ is related to the support of the Fourier transform $\hat f: G…
For a finite abelian group $(G,+)$ the Harborth constant is defined as the smallest integer $\ell$ such that each squarefree sequence over $G$ of length $\ell$ has a subsequence of length equal to the exponent of $G$ whose terms sum to $0$.…
Let $X$ be a normal projective variety equipped with an action of a semisimple algebraic group $G$, and assume that $X$ contains a unique closed orbit. Let $B$ be a Borel subgroup of $G$ and let $E$ be a $B$-equivariant vector bundle on…
We show that under the assumption of a 24-term version of Fermat's Last Theorem, there exists an absolute constant c > 0 such that if S is a set of n > n_0 positive integers satisfying |S.S| < n^(1+c), then the sumset S.S satisfies |S+S| >>…
We prove that every Diophantine quadruple in $\mathbb{R}[X]$ is regular. More precisely, we prove that if $\{a, b, c, d\}$ is a set of four non-zero polynomials from $\mathbb{R}[X]$, not all constant, such that the product of any two of its…
Let $G$ be a finite group. A finite unordered sequence $S = g_1 \boldsymbol{\cdot} \ldots \boldsymbol{\cdot} g_{\ell}$ of terms from $G$, where repetition is allowed, is a product-one sequence if its terms can be ordered such that their…
Let $G$ be an additive abelian group. A sequence $S=g_1\cdot\ldots\cdot g_{\ell}$ of terms from $G$ is a plus-minus weighted zero-sum sequence if there are $\varepsilon_1,\ldots,\varepsilon_{\ell}\in\{-1,1\}$ such that $\varepsilon_1…
Let $A,B\subseteq\mathbb Z_n$ be given and $S=(x_1,\ldots, x_k)$ be a sequence in $\mathbb Z_n$. We say that $S$ is an $(A,B)$-weighted zero-sum sequence if there exist $a_1,\ldots,a_k\in A$ and $b_1,\ldots,b_k\in B$ such that…
Let $n \ge 8$ be even, and let $G = \langle x, y \mid x^2 = y^{n/2}, y^n = 1, yx = xy^s \rangle$, where $s^2 \equiv 1 \pmod n$ and $s \not\equiv \pm1 \pmod n$. In this paper, we provide the precise values of some zero-sum constants over…
The 'boxicity' ('cubicity') of a graph G is the minimum natural number k such that G can be represented as an intersection graph of axis-parallel rectangular boxes (axis-parallel unit cubes) in $R^k$. In this article, we give estimates on…
Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and let $G$ be a finitely generated subgroup of the multiplicative group of $K$. We consider $K$-valued sequences of the form $a_n:=f(\varphi^n(x_0))$, where $\varphi\colon…
Let $R$ be a finite commutative unitary ring. An idempotent in $R$ is an element $e\in R$ with $e^2=e$. Let $\Psi$ be a subgroup of the group ${\rm Aut}(R)$ of all automorphisms of $R$. The $\Psi-$weighted Erd\H{o}s-Burgess constant ${\rm…
The Harborth constant of a finite group $G$, denoted $\gs(G)$, is the smallest integer $k$ such that the following holds: For $A\subseteq G$ with $|A|=k$, there exists $B\subseteq A$ with $|B|=\exp(G)$ such that the elements of $B$ can be…
A base of a permutation group (X,G) is a subset B of X such that its pointwise stabilizer is the trivial group. A list (x1,x2, ... ,xk) of elements of X is irredundant if each element is not in the pointwise stabilizer of its predecessors.…
We prove that any random variable $X$ whose moment generating function is point-wise upper bounded by that of $ G \sim \mathcal{N}(0,1) $ must be dominated by $ G/\mathbb{E}[|G|] $ in convex order, meaning $ \mathbb{E}[f(X)] \le…
Let $G$ be a group and $G_0 \subseteq G$ be a subset. A sequence over $G_0$ means a finite sequence of terms from $G_0$, where the order of elements is disregarded and the repetition of elements is allowed. A product-one sequence is a…
For a group $G$ acting on a set $X$, let $\text{End}_G(X)$ be the monoid of all $G$-equivariant transformations, or $G$-endomorphisms, of $X$, and let $\text{Aut}_G(X)$ be its group of units. After discussing few basic results in a general…
Let $A,B\subseteq \mathbb Z_n\setminus\{0\}$. A sequence $S=(x_1,\ldots, x_k)$ in $\mathbb Z_n$ is called an $(A,B)$-weighted zero-sum sequence if there exist $a_1,\ldots,a_k\in A$ and $b_1,\ldots,b_k\in B$ such that…
For a given family $(G_i)_{i \in \N}$ of finitely generated abelian groups, we construct a Dedekind domain $D$ having the following properties. \begin{enumerate} \item $\Pic(D) \cong \bigoplus_{i \in \N}G_i$. \item For each $i \in \N$,…
