We give an elementary theory of Henselian local rings and construct the Henselization of a local ring. All our theorems have an algorithmic content.

In this paper, we describe linear and cyclic codes over the rings of the form $R_{s,p}=\mathbb{Z}_{p}[u]/\left( f\left(u\right) /\left( u-s\right) \right)$, where $p$ is a prime number and $f\left( u\right) =u^{p}-u$, with $s\in…

Let $f\in \mathbb{Q}(x)$ be a non-constant rational function. We consider "Waring's Problem for $f(x)$," i.e., whether every element of $\bbq$ can be written as a bounded sum of elements of $\{f(a)\mid a\in \mathbb{Q}\}$. For rational…

What is a least integer upper bound on van der Waerden number $W(r, k)$ among the powers of the integer $r$? We show how this can be found by expanding the integer $W(r, k)$ into powers of $r$. Doing this enables us to find both a least…

In this paper we prove a new recurrence relation on the van der Waerden numbers, $w(r,k)$. In particular, if $p$ is a prime and $p\leq k$ then $w(r, k) > p \cdot \left(w\left(r - \left\lceil \frac{r}{p}\right\rceil, k\right) -1\right)$.…

The Waring Problem over polynomial rings asks for how to decompose an homogeneous polynomial of degree $d$ as a finite sum of $d^{th}$ powers of linear forms. First, we give a constructive method to obtain a real Waring decomposition of any…

For a ring $R$, Hilbert's Tenth Problem $HTP(R)$ is the set of polynomial equations over $R$, in several variables, with solutions in $R$. We view $HTP$ as an enumeration operator, mapping each set $W$ of prime numbers to $HTP(\mathbb…

We give a reduction formula for the Waring number $g(k,q)$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. By exploiting the relation between $g(k,q)$ with the diameter of the generalized Paley graph $\Gamma(k,q)$ and by using the characterization due…

The main result is the following Theorem: Let p=p(n) be such that p(n) in [0,1] for all n and either p(n)<< n^{-1} or for some positive integer k, n^{-1/k}<< p(n)<< n^{-1/(k+1)} or for all epsilon >0, n^{- epsilon}<< p(n) and n^{-…

In this paper we show that for every positive integer $n$ there exists a prime number in the interval $[n,9(n+3)/8]$. Based on this result, we prove that if $a$ is an integer greater than 1, then for every integer $n>14.4a$ there are at…

Using a method we have utilized previously, namely through a finite power series expansion which also sometimes is known as the "radix polynomial" representation of an integer, we find an upper bound for a van der Waerden number that has a…

The probabilistic Waring problem for finite simple groups asks whether every word of the form $w_1w_2$, where $w_1$ and $w_2$ are non-trivial words in disjoint sets of variables, induces almost uniform distribution on finite simple groups…

In this paper we give necessary and sufficient trace conditions for an n by n matrix over any commutative and associative ring with unity to be a sum of k-th powers of matrices over that ring, where n,k are integers greater equal 2. We…

We find the number of compositions over finite abelian groups under two types of restrictions: (i) each part belongs to a given subset and (ii) small runs of consecutive parts must have given properties. Waring's problem over finite fields…

This paper investigates the Waring problem of harmonic polynomials. By characterizing the annihilating ideal of a homogeneous harmonic polynomial, i.e., a real binary form that is in the kernel of the Laplacian, we show that its Waring rank…

Let $R$ be a local, Gorenstein ring with algebraically closed residue field $k$ of characteristic 0 and let $P_R(z):=\sum_{p=0}^{\infty}\dim_k(\tor_p^R(k,k))z^p$ be its Poincar\'e series. We compute $P_R$ when $R$ belongs to a particular…

Under the fundamental theorem of arithmetic, any integer $n>1$ can be uniquely written as a product of prime powers $p^a$; factoring each exponent $a$ as a product of prime powers $q^b$, and so on, one will obtain what is called the tower…

The Ramsey numbers $R(T_n,W_8)$ are determined for each tree graph $T_n$ of order $n\geq 7$ and maximum degree $\Delta(T_n)$ equal to either $n-4$ or $n-5$. These numbers indicate strong support for the conjecture, due to Chen, Zhang and…

We provide conditions on the coefficients of a ternary cubic form that determine its Waring rank.

A natural number is a binary $k$'th power if its binary representation consists of $k$ consecutive identical blocks. We prove an analogue of Waring's theorem for sums of binary $k$'th powers. More precisely, we show that for each integer $k…
