In this paper, we study gapsets and we focus on obtaining information on how the maximum distance between to consecutive elements influences the behaviour of the set. In particular, we prove that the cardinality of the set of gapsets with…

Let $I(b,d,k)$ be the subseries of the harmonic series keeping the integers having exactly $k$ occurrences of the digit $d$ in base $b$. We prove the existence of an asymptotic expansion to all orders in descending powers of $b$, for fixed…

Abelian integrals arise in the mathematical description of various physical processes. According to Abel's theorem these integrals are related to motion of a set of points along a plane curve around fixed points, which are relatively little…

We study the convergence of an inexact version of the classical Krasnosel'skii-Mann iteration for computing fixed points of nonexpansive maps. Our main result establishes a new metric bound for the fixed-point residuals, from which we…

Given positive integers k and r where 4 divides k and k/2 \leq r \leq k-1, we give a minimum r-degree condition that ensures a perfect matching in a k-uniform hypergraph. This condition is best possible and improves on work of Pikhurko who…

Given an integer k, we consider the parallel k-stripping process applied to a hypergraph H: removing all vertices with degree less than k in each iteration until reaching the k-core of H. Take H as H_r(n,m): a random r-uniform hypergraph on…

In many iterative optimization methods, fixed-point theory enables the analysis of the convergence rate via the contraction factor associated with the linear approximation of the fixed-point operator. While this factor characterizes the…

In this paper we study the sequence of strings of $k$ last nonzero digits of $n!$ in a given base $b$. We determine for which $b$ this sequence is automatic and show how to generate it using a uniform morphism. We also compute how often…

A number of engineering and scientific problems require representing and manipulating probability distributions over large alphabets, which we may think of as long vectors of reals summing to $1$. In some cases it is required to represent…

The $3k-4$ Theorem is a classical result which asserts that if $A,\,B\subseteq \mathbb Z$ are finite, nonempty subsets with \begin{equation}\label{hyp}|A+B|=|A|+|B|+r\leq |A|+|B|+\min\{|A|,\,|B|\}-3-\delta,\end{equation} where $\delta=1$ if…

We study the convergence analysis of a Picard-S iteration method for a particular class of weak-contraction mappings. Furthermore, we prove a data dependence result for fixed point of the class of weak-contraction mappings with the help of…

The inverse of the star discrepancy, $N(\epsilon, s)$, defined as the minimum number of points required to achieve a star discrepancy of at most $\epsilon$ in dimension $s$, is known to depend linearly on $s$. However, explicit…

For fixed integers $b\geq k$, the problem of perfect $(b,k)$-hashing asks for the asymptotic growth of largest subsets of $\{1,2,\ldots,b\}^n$ such that for any $k$ distinct elements in the set, there is a coordinate where they all differ.…

We study the commutators of the kappa-deformed Poincare Algebra (kappaPA) in an arbitrary basis. It is known that the two recently studied doubly special relativity theories correspond to different choices of kappaPA bases. We present…

We study the optimization of (strongly) quasar-convex functions, a class that arises naturally in many machine learning and data science applications due to its favorable properties. The fundamental properties of this class are first…

For an integer $b\geq 2$, we call a positive integer $b$-anti-Niven if it is relatively prime to the sum of the digits in its base-$b$ representation. In this article, we investigate the maximum lengths of arithmetic progressions of…

Classical crystals are solid materials containing arbitrarily long periodic repetitions of a single motif. In this paper, we study the maximal possible repetition of the same motif occurring in beta-integers -- one dimensional models of…

In the maximum independent set of convex polygons problem, we are given a set of $n$ convex polygons in the plane with the objective of selecting a maximum cardinality subset of non-overlapping polygons. Here we study a special case of the…

The well known binary and decimal representations of the integers, and other similar number systems, admit many generalisations. Here, we investigate whether still every integer could have a finite expansion on a given integer base b, when…

This note considers the momentum method by Polyak and the accelerated gradient method by Nesterov, both without line search but with fixed step length applied to strictly convex quadratic functions assuming that exact gradients are used and…
