A numerical semigroup $S$ is a cofinite, additively-closed subset of $\mathbb Z_{\ge 0}$ that contains 0, and a factorization of $x \in S$ is a $k$-tuple $z = (z_1, \ldots, z_k)$ where $x = z_1a_1 + \cdots + z_ka_k$ expresses $x$ as a sum…

Let G be a finite group, (g_{1},...,g_{r}) an (unordered) r-tuple of G^{(r)} and x_{i,g_i}'s variables that correspond to the g_i's, i=1,...,r. Let F<x_{1,g_1},...,x_{r,g_r}> be the corresponding free G-graded algebra where F is a field of…

We introduce notions of absolutely continuous functionals and representations on the non-commutative disk algebra $A_n$. Absolutely continuous functionals are used to help identify the type L part of the free semigroup algebra associated to…

In this paper we introduce some new methods to understand the analytic behaviour of the zeta function of a group. We can then combine this knowledge with suitable Tauberian theorems to deduce results about the growth of subgroups in a…

An Engel series is a sum of reciprocals of a non-decreasing sequence $(x_n)$ of positive integers, which is such that each term is divisible by the previous one, and a Pierce series is an alternating sum of the reciprocals of a sequence…

Let $\mathbf{S}$ be the set of all finite or infinite increasing sequences of positive integers. For a sequence $S=\{s(n)\}, n\geq1,$ from $\mathbf{S},$ let us call a positive number $N$ an exponentially $S$-number $(N\in E(S)),$ if all…

This paper is about a family of symmetric rational functions that form a one-parameter generalization of the classical Hall-Littlewood polynomials. We introduce two sets of (skew and non-skew) functions that are akin to P and Q…

In this paper, we determine the complex-valued solutions of the following functional equations \[g(x\sigma (y)) = g(x)g(y)+f(x)f(y),\quad x,y\in S,\]\[f(x\sigma (y)) = f(x)g(y)+f(y)g(x),\quad x,y\in S,\]\[f(x\sigma (y)) =…

Given an ideal $\mathcal{I}$ on $\omega$, we denote by $\mathrm{SL}(\mathcal{I})$ the family of positive normalized linear functionals on $\ell_\infty$ which assign value $0$ to all characteristic sequences of sets in $\mathcal{I}$. We show…

We introduce a new class of entire functions $\mathcal{E}$ which consists of all $F_0\in\mathcal{O}(\mathbb{C})$ for which there exists a sequence $(F_n)\in \mathcal{O}(\mathbb{C})$ and a sequence $(\lambda_n)\in\mathbb{C}$ satisfying…

The series $\theta (q,x):=\sum _{j=0}^{\infty}q^{j(j+1)/2}x^j$ converges for $|q|<1$ and defines a {\em partial theta function}. For any fixed $q\in (0,1)$ it has infinitely many negative zeros. It is known that for $q$ taking one of the…

Let $f \colon X \to B$ be a nonisotrivial complex elliptic surface and let $\mathcal{D} \subset X$ be an integral divisor dominating $B$. We study finiteness related properties of generalized $(S, \mathcal{D})$-integral sections $\sigma…

We prove a result that can be seen as an analogue of the P\'olya-Carlson theorem for multivariate D-finite power series with coefficients in $\bar{\mathbb{Q}}$. In the special case that the coefficients are algebraic integers, our main…

Let $F$ be an affine flat group scheme over a commutative ring $R$, and $S$ an $F$-algebra (an $R$-algebra on which $F$ acts). We define an equivariant analogue $Q_F(S)$ of the total ring of fractions $Q(S)$ of $S$. It is the largest…

A set $R\subset \mathbb{N}$ is called rational if it is well-approximable by finite unions of arithmetic progressions. Examples of rational sets include many classical sets of number-theoretical origin such as the set of squarefree numbers,…

The paper proves sum-of-square-of-rational-function based representations (shortly, sosrf-based representations) of polynomial matrices that are positive semidefinite on some special sets: $\mathbb{R}^n;$ $\mathbb{R}$ and its intervals…

Let $\Delta_x f(x,y)=f(x+1,y)-f(x,y)$ and $\Delta_y f(x,y)=f(x,y+1)-f(x,y)$ be the difference operators with respect to $x$ and $y$. A rational function $f(x,y)$ is called summable if there exist rational functions $g(x,y)$ and $h(x,y)$…

Let ${\cal G}=(G,w)$ be a weighted graph , that is, a graph $G$ endowed with a function $w$ from the edge set of $G$ to the set of real numbers; for any subset $S$ of the vertex set of $G$, we define $D_S({\cal G})$ to be the minimum of the…

Let $\es$ be the family of analytic and univalent functions $f$ in the unit disk $\D$ with the normalization $f(0)=f'(0)-1=0$, and let $\gamma_n(f)=\gamma_n$ denote the logarithmic coefficients of $f\in {\es}$. In this paper, we study…

Let $B$ be a fixed rational function of one complex variable of degree at least two. In this paper, we study solutions of the functional equation $A\circ X=X\circ B$ in rational functions $A$ and $X$. Our main result states that, unless $B$…
