The generalized taxicab number $T(n,m,t)$ is equal to the smallest number that is the sum of $n$ positive $m$th powers in $t$ ways. This definition is inspired by Ramanujan's observation that $1729 = 1^3+ 12^3 =9^3 + 10^3 $ is the smallest…

The famous open problem of finding positive integer solutions to $a^5 + b^5 = c^5 + d^5$ is considered, and related solutions are found in two distinct settings: firstly, where $a$ and $b$ are both positive integers with $c$ and $d$ both…

The primary Carmichael numbers were recently introduced as a special subset of the Carmichael numbers. A primary Carmichael number $m$ has the unique property that $s_p(m) = p$ holds for each prime factor $p$, where $s_p(m)$ is the sum of…

In this article, we make use of some known method to investigate some properties of the numbers represented as sums of two equal odd powers, i.e., the equation $x^n+y^n=N$ for $n\ge3$. It was originated in developing algorithms to search…

Starting with Ramanujan's famous taxicab problem, we can study the solvability of the equations $p^n+q^n=r^n+s^n$ and, more generally, $p_1^{k_1}+\dots+p_m^{k_m}=0$ among polynomials.

The generalized Waring problem asks exactly which positive integers cannot be expressed as the sum of $j$ positive $k$-th powers? Using computational techniques, this paper refines an approach introduced by Zenkin, establishes results for…

For each integer $m\ge3$, let $P_m(x)$ denote the generalized $m$-gonal number $\frac{(m-2)x^2-(m-4)x}{2}$ with $x\in\mathbb{Z}$. Given positive integers $a,b,c,k$ and an odd prime number $p$ with $p\nmid c$, we employ the theory of ternary…

Let $n,r,k,s$ be positive integers with $n,k\ge 2$. The generalized Ramsey number $R(n,r;k,s)$ is the smallest positive integer $p$ such that for every graph $G$ of order $p$, either $G$ contains a subgraph induced by $n$ vertices with at…

Let $b$ be a numeration base. A $b$-additive Ramanujan-Hardy number $N$ is an integer for which there exists at least an integer $M$, called additive multiplier, such that the product of $M$ and the sum of base $b$ digits of $N$, added to…

For two sets $A$ and $M$ of positive integers and for a positive integer $n$, let $p(n,A,M)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$ with parts in $A$ and multiplicities in $M$, that is, the number of representations of $n$ in the form…

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…

Generalized $m$-gonal numbers are those $p_m(x)= [ (m - 2)x^2 - (m - 4)x ]/2 $ where $x$ and $m$ are integers with $m \geq 3$. If any nonnegative integer can be written in the form $ap_r(h)+bp_s(l)+cp_t(m)+dp_u(n)$, where $a,b,c,d$ are…

We say a positive integer is a sum of three nonunit squares if it is a sum of three squares of integers other than one. In this article, we find all integers which are sums of three nonunit squares assuming that the Generalized Riemann…

It is known that for an arbitrary positive integer \(n\) the sequence \(S(x^n)=(1^n, 2^n, \ldots)\) is complete, meaning that every sufficiently large integer is a sum of distinct \(n\)th powers of positive integers. We prove that every…

The generalized Ramsey number $R(G_1, G_2)$ is the smallest positive integer $N$ such that any red-blue coloring of the edges of the complete graph $K_N$ either contains a red copy of $G_1$ or a blue copy of $G_2$. Let $C_m$ denote a cycle…

A positive integer $n$ is said to be a practical number if every integer in $[1,n]$ can be represented as the sum of distinct divisors of $n$. In this article, we consider practical numbers of a given polynomial form. We give a necessary…

A positive integer $n$ is said to be a Zumkeller number or an integer-perfect number if the set of its positive divisors can be partitioned into two subsets of equal sums. In this paper, we prove several results regarding Zumkeller numbers.…

In this article, we consider weighted sums of generalized polygonal numbers with coefficients $1$ or $2$. We show that for any $m\ge10$, those weighted sums of generalized $m$-gonal numbers represent every non-negative integers if they only…

A partition of a positive integer $n$ is a representation of $n$ as a sum of a finite number of positive integers (called parts). A trapezoidal number is a positive integer that has a partition whose parts are a decreasing sequence of…

In this article, we study a sum of squares of integers except for a fixed one. For any nonnegative integer $n$, we find the minimum number of squares of integers except for $n$ whose sums represent all positive integers that are represented…
