Let $A$ be a subset of primes up to $x$. If we assume $A$ is well-distributed (in the Siegel-Walfisz sense) in any arithmetic progressions to moduli $q\leqslant(\log x)^c$ for any $c>0$, then the sumset $A+A$ has density 1/2 in the natural…

We obtain quantitative estimates for the asymptotic density of subsets of the two-dimensional integer lattice which contain only trivial solutions to an additive equation involving binary forms. In the process we develop an analogue of…

We show generic existence of power series a with complex coefficients a_n, such that the sequence of partial sums of a new power series where its coefficients b_n are functions of a_0, a_1, ..., a_n approximate every polynomial uniformly on…

For any integer $r\ge2$, define a sequence of numbers $\{c_k^{(r)}\}_{k=0}^\infty$, independent of the parameter $n$, by $$ \sum_{k=0}^n{\binom nk}^r{\binom{n+k}k}^r =\sum_{k=0}^n\binom nk\binom{n+k}kc_k^{(r)}, \qquad n=0,1,2,...c. $$ We…

For k>=3 let A \subset [1,N] be a set not containing a solution to a_1 x_1+...+a_k x_k=a_1 x_{k+1}+...+a_k x_{2k} in distinct integers. We prove that there is an epsilon>0 depending on the coefficients of the equation such that every such A…

Suppose $k,x,$ and $b$ are positive integers, and $a$ is a nonnegative integer such that $k=a+b$. In this paper, we will prove $\binom{2k}{k} = \binom{2a}{a} \binom{x+2b}{b}$ if and only if $x=a=1$. We do this by looking at different cases…

The Tijdeman-Zagier conjecture states no integer solution exists for $A^X+B^Y=C^Z$ with positive integer bases and integer exponents greater than 2 unless gcd$(A,B,C)>1$. Any set of values that satisfy the conjecture correspond to a lattice…

Motivated by the recent result of Farhi we show that for each $n\equiv \pm 1\pmod{6}$ the title Diophantine equation has at least two solutions in integers. As a consequence, we get that each (even) perfect number is a sum of three cubes of…

Let $r$ and $k$ be positive integers with $r \mid k$. Denote by $S_{\mathrm{\mathfrak{z}}}(k;r)$ the minimum integer $n$ such that every coloring $\chi:[1,n] \rightarrow \{0,1,\dots,r-1\}$ admits a solution to $\sum_{i=1}^{k-1} x_i = x_k$…

Let $r\ge 1$ be an integer and ${\bf U}:=(U_{n})_{n\ge 0} $ be the Lucas sequence given by $U_0=0$, $U_1=1, $ and $U_{n+2}=rU_{n+1}+U_n$, for all $ n\ge 0 $. In this paper, we show that there are no positive integers $r\ge 3,~x\ne 2,~n\ge…

Let $s(n)$ denote the sum of the proper divisors of the natural number $n$. We show that the number of $n \leq x$ such that $s(n)$ is a sum of two squares has order of magnitude $x/\sqrt{\log x}$, which agrees with the count of $n \leq x$…

{The first version of this text was written and submitted to a journal on April, 12, 2018. This second version was submitted on April, 9, 2019.} We investigate the existence of subsets $A$ and $B$ of $\mathbb{N}:=\{0,1,2,\dots\}$ such that…

For an even integer $k$, let $r_{2k}(n)$ be the number of representations of $n$ as a sum of $2k$ squares. The quantity $r_{2k}(n)$ is appoximated by the classical singular series $\rho_{2k}(n) \asymp n^{k-1}$. Deligne's bound on the…

Equation $(-\Delta+k^2)u+f(u)=0$ in $D$, $u\mid_{\partial D}=0$, where $k=\const>0$ and $D\subset\R^3$ is a bounded domain, has a solution if $f:\R\to\R$ is a continuous function in the region $|u|\geq a$, piecewise-continuous in the region…

We prove that for any coloring of the naturals using two colors there are monochromatic sets of the form $\{x,y,xy,x+iy:i\leq k\}$ and $\{x,y,x^y,xy^i:i\leq k\}$ for any $k$.

Let $ \{P_{n}\}_{n\geq 0} $ be the sequence of Padovan numbers defined by $ P_0=0 $, $ P_1 = P_2=1$ and $ P_{n+3}= P_{n+1} +P_n$ for all $ n\geq 0 $. In this paper, we find all positive square-free integers $ d $ such that the Pell…

Denote by P(K, k) the members of the field K which are sums of kth powers of field elements, by P+(K, k) the set of members of K which are sums of kth powers of totally positive elements of K. We are interested in deciding whether or not…

We demonstrate that there are infinitely many integers that cannot be expressed as the sum of two squares of integers and up to two non-negative integer powers of 2.

Inspired by Cohen and te Riele~\cite{Cohen1996}, who computationally verified that for every $n \leq 400$ there exists $k$ such that $\sigma^k(n) \equiv 0 \pmod{n}$ (where $\sigma^k$ denotes the $k$-fold iteration of the sum-of-divisors…

In this note we associate a sequence of non-negative integers to any convergent series of positive real numbers and study this sequence for the series $\sum_{n \geq 1} n^{-k}$ where $k$ is an integer $\geq 2$.
