The theory of {\Gamma}-species is developed to allow species-theoretic study of quotient structures in a categorically rigorous fashion. This new approach is then applied to two graph-enumeration problems which were previously unsolved in…

A positive integer $d$ is a floor quotient of $n$ if there is a positive integer $k$ such that $d = \lfloor n/k \rfloor$. The floor quotient relation defines a partial order on the positive integers. This paper studies the internal…

A first order theory T is said to be "tight" if for any two deductively closed extensions U and V of T (both of which are formulated in the language of T), U and V are bi-interpretable iff U = V. By a theorem of Visser, PA (Peano…

We prove three main conjectures of Berkovich and Uncu (Ann. Comb. 23 (2019) 263--284) on the inequalities between the numbers of partitions of $n$ with bounded gap between largest and smallest parts for sufficiently large $n$. Actually our…

Here we answer a conjecture by Ron Graham about getting finer upper bounds for van der Waerden numbers in the affirmative, but without the application of double induction or combinatorics as applied to sets of integers that contain some van…

Let P be a finite set of at least two prime numbers, and A the set of positive integers that are products of powers of primes from P. Let F(k) denote the smallest positive integer which cannot be presented as sum of less than k terms of A.…

We demonstrate the existence of $K$-multimagic squares of order $N$ consisting of distinct integers whenever $N>2 K(K+1)$. This improves upon our earlier result in which we only required $N+1$ distinct integers. Additionally, we present a…

Let $D$ be an integrally closed domain with quotient field $K$ and $n$ a positive integer. We give a characterization of the polynomials in $K[X]$ which are integer-valued over the set of matrices $M_n(D)$ in terms of their divided…

Let $(L_n^{(k)})_{n\geq 2-k}$ be the sequence of $k$--generalized Lucas numbers for some fixed integer $k\ge 2$ whose first $k$ terms are $0,\ldots,0,2,1$ and each term afterwards is the sum of the preceding $k$ terms. For an integer $m$,…

In this paper we study $N_d(k)$ the smallest positive integer such that any nice measure $\mu$ in $\R^d$ can be partitioned in $N_d(k)$ parts of equal measure so that every hyperplane avoids at least $k$ of them. A theorem of Yao and Yao…

Let $k$ and $n$ be positive integers, $n>k$. Define $r(n,k)$ to be the minimum positive value of $$ |\sqrt{a_1} + ... + \sqrt{a_k} - \sqrt{b_1} - >... -\sqrt{b_k} | $$ where $ a_1, a_2, ..., a_k, b_1, b_2, ..., b_k $ are positive integers…

Let $n$ be a non-negative integer and $A=\{a_1,\ldots,a_k\}$ be a multi-set with $k$ not necessarily distinct members, where $a_1\leqslant\ldots\leqslant a_k$. We denote by $\Delta(n,A)$ the number of ways to partition $n$ as the form…

A perfect number is a positive integer n such that n equals the sum of all positive integer divisors of n that are less than n. That is, although n is a divisor of n, n is excluded from this sum. Thus 6 = 1 + 2 + 3 is perfect, but 12 < 1 +…

Following suggestions of T. H. Koornwinder, we give a new proof of Kummer's theorem involving Zeilberger's algorithm, the WZ method and asymptotic estimates. In the first section, we recall a classical proof given by L. J. Slater. The…

Let $k \geq 2$ be an integer. We prove that factorization of integers into $k$ parts follows the Dirichlet distribution $\text{Dir}\left(\frac{1}{k},\ldots,\frac{1}{k}\right)$ by multidimensional contour integration, thereby generalizing…

We prove a structural result for sets of integers with doubling at most $4 + \delta$, with $\delta>0$ sufficiently small. This generalises earlier work of Eberhard--Green--Manners which dealt with sets of integers with doubling strictly…

This problem was asked to K. Mahler by one of his Japanese colleagues, a Z-number is a positive real number $x$ such that the fractional parts of $x(\frac{3}{2})^n $ are less than $\frac{1}{2}$ for all integers $n$ such that $n \ge 0$. Kurt…

Iizuka's conjecture predicts that, given $m \in \mathbb{N}$ and a prime $p$, there exists infinitely many integers $n$ such that the class numbers of \textit{all} of the following quadratic number fields, \[ \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{n}),\…

Let $P(m)$ denote the largest prime factor of an integer $m\geq 2$, and put $P(0)=P(1)=1$. For an integer $k\geq 2$, let $(F_{n}^{(k)})_{n\geq 2-k}$ be the $k-$generalized Fibonacci sequence which starts with $0,...,0,1$ ($k$ terms) and…

We prove that the Schubert structure constants of the quantum $K$-theory ring of any minuscule flag variety or quadric hypersurface have signs that alternate with codimension. We also prove that the powers of the deformation parameter $q$…
