Given an arithmetical function $f$, by $f(a, b)$ and $f[a, b]$ we denote the function $f$ evaluated at the greatest common divisor $(a, b)$ of positive integers $a$ and $b$ and evaluated at the least common multiple $[a, b]$ respectively. A…
The generalized order $e_G(g)$ of an element $g$ of a group $G$ is the smallest positive integer $k$ such that there exist $x_1,\ldots,x_k \in G$ such that $g^{x_1} \ldots g^{x_k}=1$, where $g^x=x^{-1}gx$. Let $e(G) = \max \{e_G(g)\ |\ g…
Although powers of the Young-Jucys-Murphya elements X_i = (1 i) + ... +(i-1 i), i = 1, ..., n, in the symmetric group S_n acting on {1, ...,n} do not lie in the centre of the group algebra of S_n, we show that transitive powers, namely the…
The matrix $S = [1+x_i y_j]_{i,j=1}^{n}, 0<x_1<\cdots<x_n,\, 0<y_1<\cdots<y_n$, has gained importance lately due to its role in powers preserving total nonnegativity. We give an explicit decomposition of $S$ in terms of elementary…
A finite group $G$ is called $k$-factorizable if for every ordered factorization $|G|=a_1\cdots a_k$ into integers each greater than $1$ there exist subsets $A_1,\dots,A_k\subseteq G$ such that $|A_i|=a_i$ for each $i$ and $G=A_1\cdots…
It is a classical fact that domains of convergence of power series of several complex variables are characterized as logarithmically convex complete Reinhardt domains; let $D \subsetneq \mathbb{C}^N$ be such a domain. We show that a…
Given a numerical semigroup S = <a_0, a_1, a_2,..., a_t> and n in S, we consider the factorization n = c_0 a_0 + c_1 a_1 + ... + c_t a_t where c_i >= 0. Such a factorization is maximal if c_0 + c_1 + ... + c_t is a maximum over all such…
Let $G$ be a finite cyclic group. Every sequence $S$ over $G$ can be written in the form $S=(n_1g)\cdot\ldots\cdot(n_lg)$ where $g\in G$ and $n_1, \ldots, n_l\in[1, \ord(g)]$, and the index $\ind(S)$ of $S$ is defined to be the minimum of…
Let $G$ be a finite cyclic group, written additively, and let $A,\ B$ be nonempty subsets of $G$. We will say that $G= A+B$ is a \textit{factorization} if for each $g$ in $G$ there are unique elements $a,\ b$ of $G$ such that $g=a+b, \ a\in…
Let $q$ be an odd prime and $k$ be a natural number. We show that a finite subset of integers $S$ that does not contain any perfect $q^{th}$ power, contains a $q^{th}$ power residue modulo almost every natural numbers $N$ with at most $k$…
A matrix $M$ over the finite field $ \mathbb{F}_q $ is called \emph{maximum distance separable} (MDS) if all of its square submatrices are non-singular. These MDS matrices are very important in cryptography and coding theory because they…
For a finite abstract simplicial complex G with n sets, define the n x n matrix K(x,y) which is the number of subsimplices in the intersection of x and y. We call it the counting matrix of G. Similarly as the connection matrix L which is…
Let $G$ be a finite group and let $A_1,\ldots,A_k$ be a collection of subsets of $G$ such that $G=A_1\ldots A_k$ is the product of all the $A_i$'s with $|G|=|A_1|\ldots|A_k|$. We write $G=A_1\cdot\ldots\cdot A_k$ and call this a $k$-fold…
New and old results on closed polynomials, i.e., such polynomials f in K[x_1,...,x_n] that the subalgebra K[f] is integrally closed in K[x_1,...,x_n], are collected. Using some properties of closed polynomials we prove the following…
Let $G$ be a group. The subsets $A_1,\ldots,A_k$ of $G$ form a complete factorization of group $G$ if if they are pairwise disjoint and each element $g\in G$ is uniquely represented as $g=a_1\ldots a_k$, with $a_i\in A_i$. We prove the…
In this paper we revisit the greatest common right divisor (GCRD) extraction from a set of polynomial matrices $P_i(\lambda)\in \F[\la]^{m_i\times n}$, $i=1,\ldots,k$ with coefficients in a generic field $\F$, and with common column…
A finite abstract simplicial complex G defines a matrix L, where L(x,y)=1 if two simplicies x,y in G intersect and where L(x,y)=0 if they don't. This matrix is always unimodular so that the inverse g of L has integer entries g(x,y). In…
A detailed proof is given of the well-known facts that greatest common divisors exist in rings of non-Archimedean entire functions of several variables and that these rings of entire functions are almost factorial, in the sense that an…
For a finite set of non-zero natural numbers that contains at least one element different from 1 and the least common multiple of any of its subsets, there exists a subset of at least half of its members which has a common divisor larger…
The power graph $\mathscr{P}(G)$ of a group $G$ is defined as the simple graph with vertex set $G$, and where two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are joined by an edge if and only if either $x= y^k$ or $y= x^k$, $k \in \mathbb{N}$. Here we…
