Let $f(m)$ be the largest integer such that for every set $A = \{a_1 < \cdots < a_m\}$ of $m$ positive integers and every open interval $I$ of length $2a_m$, there exist at least $f(m)$ disjoint pairs $(a, b)$ with $a \in A$ dividing $b \in…
A new, constructive proof with a small explicit constant is given to the Erd\H{o}s-Pyber theorem which says that the edges of a graph on $n$ vertices can be partitioned into complete bipartite subgraphs so that every vertex is covered at…
For $0\le k\le n$, write $\binom nk=uv$ where the primes dividing $u$ are at most $k$ and the primes dividing $v$ exceed $k$, and let $f(n)$ be the least $k$ with $u>n^2$; Erd\H{o}s problem 684 asks for bounds on $f(n)$. We resolve the…
We provide a way to modify and to extend a previously established inequality by P. Erd\H{o}s, R. Graham and others and to answer a conjecture posed in the nineties by R. Graham, which bears on the lack of divisibility of the central…
Let $f(N)$ denote the least integer $k$ such that, if $G$ is an abelian group of order $N$ and $A \subseteq G$ is a uniformly random $k$-element subset, then with probability at least $\tfrac12$ the subset-sum set $\{ \sum_{x \in S} x : S…
We give a triplet of short proofs, each of which answers a question raised by Erd\H{o}s. The first concerns the small prime factors of $\binom{n}{k}$, the second concerns whether an additive basis $A$ can always be split into pieces $A_1$…
Let $\mathbb{Z}^{+}$ be the set of positive integers. Let $C_{k}$ denote all subsets of $\mathbb{Z}^{+}$ such that neither of them contains $k + 1$ pairwise coprime integers and $C_k(n)=C_k\cap \{1,2,\ldots,n\}$. Let $f(n, k) =…
The basic theme of this paper is the fact that if $A$ is a finite set of integers, then the sum and product sets cannot both be small. A precise formulation of this fact is Conjecture 1 below due to Erd\H os-Szemer\'edi [E-S]. (see also…
We give a quintet of proofs resulting from questions posed by Erd\H{o}s. These questions concern ordinary lines in planar point sets, sequences with uniformly small exponential sums, $K_4$-free $4$-critical graphs with few chords in any…
The Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv theorem states that for any sequence of $2n-1$ integers, there exists a subsequence of $n$ elements whose sum is divisible by $n$. In this article, we provide a simple, practical $O(n\log\log n)$ algorithm and a…
The Erd\H{o}s discrepancy problem, now a theorem by T. Tao, asks whether every sequence with values plus or minus one has unbounded discrepancy along all homogeneous arithmetic progressions. We establish weighted variants of this problem,…
AI-assisted theorem proving can now generate substantial Lean developments for olympiad-level mathematics, but the evidential status of such developments depends on which declarations are actually verified. This paper reports a Lean 4…
For fixed $m$ and $R\subseteq \{0,1,\ldots,m-1\}$, take $A$ to be the set of positive integers congruent modulo $m$ to one of the elements of $R$, and let $p_A(n)$ be the number of ways to write $n$ as a sum of elements of $A$. Nathanson…
A set $A$ of natural numbers possesses property $\mathcal{P}_h$, if there are no distinct elements $a_0,a_1,\dots ,a_h\in A$ with $a_0$ dividing the product $a_1a_2\dots a_h$. Erd\H{o}s determined the maximum size of a subset of…
Let $\mathcal{A}\subset\mathbb{R}_{\geqslant1}$ be a countable set such that $\limsup_{x\to\infty}\frac{1}{\log x}\sum_{\alpha\in\mathcal{A}\cap[1,x]}\frac{1}{\alpha}>0$. We prove that, for every $\varepsilon>0$, there exist infinitely many…
Erd\H{o}s asked for positive integers $m<n$, such that $m$ and $n$ have the same set of prime factors, $m+1$ and $n+1$ have the same set of prime factors, and $m+2$ and $n+2$ have the same set of prime factors. No such integers are known.…
We consider several old problems involving the number of prime divisors function $\omega(n)$, as well as the related functions $\Omega(n)$ and $\tau(n)$. Firstly, we show that there are infinitely many positive integers $n$ such that…
In this paper analyzes \textit{The Erd\H{o}s-Straus conjecture} asserts that $f$$(n)$ $>$ 0 for every $n$ $\geq$ 2, where $f(n)$ indicates the number of solutions to the Diophantine Equation…
For $\alpha >0$, let $$\mathscr{A}=\{ a_1<a_2<a_3<\cdots\}$$ and $$\mathscr{L}=\{ \ell_1, \ell_2, \ell_3,\cdots\} \quad \text{(not~necessarily~different)}$$ be two sequences of positive integers with $\mathscr{A}(m)>(\log m)^\alpha $ for…
Erd\H{o}s and Graham define $g(n) = n + \phi(n)$ and the iterated application $g_k(n) = g(g_{k-1}(n))$. They ask for solutions of $g_{k+r}(n) = 2 g_{k}(n)$ and observe $g_{k+2}(10) = 2 g_{k}(10)$ and $g_{k+2}(94) = 2 g_{k}(94)$. We show…
