In this article, we prove that every integer can be written as an integer combination of exactly 4 tetrahedral numbers. Moreover, we compute the modular periodicity of platonic numbers.

An existing dialogue between number theory and dynamical systems is advanced. A combinatorial device gives necessary and sufficient conditions for a sequence of non-negative integers to count the periodic points in a dynamical system. This…

We construct a countable family of multi-dimensional continued fraction algorithms, built out of five specific multidimensional continued fractions, and find a wide class of cubic irrational real numbers a so that either (a, a^2) or (a,…

The concept of a modular value of an observable of a pre- and post-selected quantum system is introduced. It is similar in form and in some cases has a close connection to the weak value of an observable, but instead of describing an…

The modular degree m_E of an elliptic curve E/Q is the minimal degree of any surjective morphism X_0(N) -> E, where N is the conductor of E. We give a necessarily set of criteria for m_E to be odd. Specializing to N prime our results imply…

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 ${p}$;…

We study a q-logarithm which was introduced by Euler and give some of its properties. This q-logarithm did not get much attention in the recent literature. We derive basic properties, some of which were already given by Euler in a…

Recently, Bringmann, Ono, and Rhoades employed harmonic weak Maass forms to prove results on Eulerian series as modular forms. By changing the setting to Appell--Lerch sums, we shorten the proof of one of their main theorems. In addition we…

Euler showed that if an odd perfect number $N$ exists, it must consist of two parts $N=q^k n^2$, with $q$ prime, $q \equiv k \equiv 1 \pmod{4}$, and gcd$(q,n)=1$. Dris conjectured that $q^k < n$. We first show that $q<n$ for all odd perfect…

Let ${\mathcal F}=(F_i:i\ge 0)$ be the sequence of Fibonacci numbers, and $j$ and $e$ be non negative integers. We study the periodicity of the power Fibonacci sequences ${\mathcal F}^e(F_j)=(F_i^e\pmod{F_j}: i\ge 0)$. It is shown that for…

Let $S(a,b)=12s(a,b)$, where $s(a,b)$ denotes the classical Dedekind sum. For a given denominator $q\in \mathbb N$, we study the numerators $k\in\mathbb Z$ of the values $k/q$, $(k,q)=1$, of Dedekind sums $S(a,b)$. Our main result says that…

In this article we show that all periods of uniformizable $t$-modules (resp. their coordinates) can be obtained via specializing a rigid analytic trivialization of a related dual $t$-motive at $t=\theta$. The proof is even constructive. The…

We show that for generic choices of parameters the moduli spaces of periodic monopoles (with singularities), i.e. monopoles on $\mathbb{R}^{2} \times \mathbb{S}^{1}$ possibly singular at a finite collection of points, are either empty or…

We establish a version of Kn\"{o}rrer's Periodicity Theorem in the context of noncommutative invariant theory. Namely, let $A$ be a left noetherian AS-regular algebra, let $f$ be a normal and regular element of $A$ of positive degree, and…

We prove that a positive proportion of the intervals of any fixed scalar multiple of $\log(X)$ in the dyadic interval $[X,2X]$ contain a prime number. We also show that a positive proportion of the congruence classes modulo $q$ contain a…

A quantum generalization of the semiclassical theory of Gutzwiller is given. The new formulation leads to systematic orbit-by-orbit inclusion of higher $\hbar$ contributions to the spectral determinant. We apply the theory to billiard…

A family of $q$-difference-differential equations in two complex variables is studied, under the action of a so-called Mahler transform on time variable. The appearance of a leading formal $q$-difference operator of irregular type in the…

In the context of the shuffle theorem, many classical integer sequences appear with a natural refinement by two statistics $q$ and $t$: for example the Catalan and Schr\"oder numbers. In particular, the bigraded Hilbert series of diagonal…

While there are many identities involving the Euler and Bernoulli numbers, they are usually proved analytically or inductively. We prove two identities involving Euler and Bernoulli numbers with combinatorial reasoning via up-down…

Let p(n, k) denote the number of partitions of n into parts less than or equal to k. We show several properties of this function modulo 2. First, we prove that for fixed positive integers k and m, p(n,k) is periodic modulo m. Using this, we…
