Let $d_{\alpha, \beta}(n)=\sum\limits_{\substack{n=kl \alpha l<k\leq\beta l}}1$ be the number of ways of factoring n into two almost equal integers. For rational numbers $0<\alpha <\beta $, we consider the following Zeta function…

Dedekind sums have applications in quite a number of fields of mathematics. Therefore, their distribution has found considerable interest. This article gives a survey of several aspects of the distribution of these sums. In particular, it…

We study the following question: for given $d\geq 2$, $n\geq d$ and $k \leq n$, what is the largest value $c(d,n,k)$ such that from any set of $n$ unit vectors in $\mathbb{R}^d$, we may select $k$ vectors with corresponding signs $\pm 1$ so…

For every $2n\times 2n$ real positive definite matrix $A,$ there exists a real symplectic matrix $M$ such that $M^TAM=\diag(D,D),$ where $D$ is the $n\times n$ positive diagonal matrix with diagonal entries $d_1(A)\le \cdots\le d_n(A).$ The…

For an $n$-variate order-$d$ tensor $A$, define $ A_{\max} := \sup_{\| x \|_2 = 1} \langle A , x^{\otimes d} \rangle$ to be the maximum value taken by the tensor on the unit sphere. It is known that for a random tensor with i.i.d $\pm 1$…

Let $A_n$ be the sum of $d$ permutation matrices of size $n\times n$, each drawn uniformly at random and independently. We prove that the normalized characteristic polynomial $\frac{1}{\sqrt{d}}\det(I_n - z A_n/\sqrt{d})$ converges when…

We prove that for any finite group G, the sum across non-identity elements of the squared absolute value of any generalized character of G which does not vanish on all non-identity elements of G is at least |G|/d -1, where d is the maximal…

In this paper, we prove two theorems concerning the sums of squared distances between points on a unit $n$-sphere that generalize two facts previously known about the case where the points are the vertices of a regular polygon. The first…

We improve a recent result of B. Hanson (2015) on multiplicative character sums with expressions of the type $a + b +cd$ and variables $a,b,c,d$ from four distinct sets of a finite field. We also consider similar sums with $a + b(c+d)$.…

Let $\mathbf{x}=(x_1,\dots,x_n)$ be an $n$-tuple of positive real numbers and the sequence $(x_i)_{i\in\mathbb{Z}}$ be its $n$-periodic extension. Given an $n$-tuple $\mathbf{r}=(r_1,\dots,r_n)$ of positive integers, let $a_i$ be the…

In this paper, we consider mixed sums of generalized polygonal numbers. Specifically, we obtain a finiteness condition for universality of such sums; this means that it suffices to check representability of a finite subset of the positive…

Consider the divisor sum $\sum_{n\leq N}\tau(n^2+2bn+c)$ for integers $b$ and $c$. We extract an asymptotic formula for the average divisor sum in a convenient form, and provide an explicit upper bound for this sum with the correct main…

Let $K$ be a totally real number field with Galois closure $L$. We prove that if $f \in \mathbb Q[x_1,...,x_n]$ is a sum of $m$ squares in $K[x_1,...,x_n]$, then $f$ is a sum of \[4m \cdot 2^{[L: \mathbb Q]+1} {[L: \mathbb Q] +1 \choose…

We compute the determinant of $\sum_{n=1}^{N} \vec{A}^{(n)} \otimes \vec{B}^{(n)}$, where $\vec{A}^{(n)}$ is square and ${\vec{B}^{(n)}=\vec{x}^{(n)}{\vec{y}^{(n)}}^T}$ where $\vec{x}^{(n)}$ and $\vec{y}^{(n)}$ have length $N$.

We give a bijective parameter representation for a sum of squares of numbers being equal to another sum of squares of numbers.

We discuss a general approach producing quantitative bounds on the number of sign changes of the weighted sums $$\sum_{n\le x}f(n)w_n$$ where $f:\mathbb{N}\to \mathbb{R}$ is a family of multiplicative functions and $w_n\in\mathbb{R}$ are…

Generalising the Cameron--Erd\H{o}s conjecture to two dimensions, Elsholtz and Rackham conjectured that the number of sum-free subsets of $[n]^2$ is $2^{0.6n^2+O(n)}$. We prove their conjecture.

Let a, a_1, ..., a_d be positive integers, m_1, ..., m_d nonnegative integers, and z_1, ..., z_d complex numbers. We study expressions of the form \[ \sum_{k \text{mod} a} \prod_{j=1}^d \cot^{(m_j)} \pi (\frac{k a_j}{a} + z_j ) . \] Here…

A stacked $d$-sphere $S$ is the boundary complex of a stacked $(d+1)$-ball, which is obtained by taking cone over a free $d$-face repeatedly from a $(d+1)$-simplex. A stacked sphere $S$ is called linear if every cone is taken over a face…

In this paper, using a deep result on the existence of primitive divisors of Lehmer numbers due to Y. Bilu, G. Hanrot and P. M. Voutier, we first give an explicit formula for all positive integer solutions of the Diophantine equation…
