For all natural numbers a,b and d > 0, we consider the function f_{a,b,d} which associates n/d to any integer n when it is a multiple of d, and an + b otherwise; in particular f_{3,1,2} is the Collatz function. Coding in base a > 1 with b <…

We find the asymptotics of the series $\sum_{n=1}^\infty (-1)^n n^{-1} \exp(-t/n)$ as $t\to+\infty$. The answer is an oscillating function of $t$ dominated by $\exp(-(2\pi t)^{1/2})$. The intermediate step is to find the asymptotics of the…

Let $\psi$ and $F$ be positive definite forms with integral coefficients of equal degree. Using the circle method, we establish an asymptotic formula for the number of identical representations of $\psi$ by $F$, provided $\psi$ is…

For $n \geq 3$, an asymptotic formula is derived for the number of representations of a sufficiently large natural number $N$ as a sum of $r = 2^n + 1$ summands, each of which is an $n$-th power of natural numbers $x_i$, $i = \overline{1,…

We study a class of representations of the Cuntz algebras O_N, N=2,3,..., acting on L^2(T) where T=R/2\pi Z. The representations arise in wavelet theory, but are of independent interest. We find and describe the decomposition into…

Some results are proved concerning asymptotic and deficient values in connection with the second order linear differential equation $y'' + Ay = 0$, in which the coefficient $A$ is entire.

For all $\alpha_1,\alpha_2\in(1,2)$ with $1/\alpha_1+1/\alpha_2>5/3$, we show that the number of pairs $(n_1,n_2)$ of positive integers with $N=\lfloor{n_1^{\alpha_1}}\rfloor+\lfloor{n_2^{\alpha_2}}\rfloor$ is equal to…

The $3x+1$ Problem asks if whether for every natural number $n$, there exists a finite number of iterations of the piecewise function $$f(2n)=n, \quad f(2n-1)=6n-2, $$ with an iterate equal to the number $1$, or in other words, every…

We prove an isomorphism between the finite domain from 1 up to the product of the first n primes and the new defined set of prime modular numbers. This definition provides some insights about relative prime numbers. We provide an inverse…

If $f$ is an entire function and $a$ is a complex number, $a$ is said to be an asymptotic value of $f$ if there exists a path $\gamma$ from $0$ to infinity such that $f(z) - a$ tends to $0$ as $z$ tends to infinity along $\gamma$. The…

Let q be an odd positive integer and P \in F2[z] be of order q and such that P(0) = 1. We denote by A = A(P) the unique set of positive integers satisfying \sum_{n=0}^\infty p(A, n) z^n \equiv P(z) (mod 2), where p(A,n) is the number of…

The article is devoted to the alternating Cantor series. It is proved that any real number belonging to $[a_0-1;a_0]$, where $a_0=\sum^{\infty} _{k=1} {\frac{d_{2k}-1}{d_1d_2...d_{2k}}} $, has no more than two representations by the series…

The notion of permutative representation is generalized to the $2$-adic ring $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{Q}_{2}$. Permutative representations of $\mathcal{Q}_2$ are then investigated with a particular focus on the inclusion of the Cuntz algebra…

The ring of dual numbers over a ring $R$ is $R[\alpha] = R[x]/(x^2)$, where $\alpha$ denotes $x+(x^2)$. For any finite commutative ring $R$, we characterize null polynomials and permutation polynomials on $R[\alpha]$ in terms of the…

Arbitrarily sparse sets A of integers are constructed with the property that every integer can be represented uniquely in the form n = a + a', where a and a' belong to the set A and a < a' or a = a'. Some related open problems are stated.

Let $F$ be a non-degenerate quadratic form on an $n$-dimensional vector space $V$ over the rational numbers. One is interested in counting the number of zeros of the quadratic form whose coordinates are restricted in a smoothed box of size…

For nonempty sets $A,B$ of nonnegative integers and an integer $n$, let $r_{A,B}(n)$ be the number of representations of $n$ as $a+b$ and $d_{A,B}(n)$ be the number of representations of $n$ as $a-b$, where $a\in A, b\in B$. In this paper,…

Let $\mathbb{N}$ be a set of the natural numbers. Symmetric inverse semigroup $R_\infty$ is the semigroup of all infinite 0-1 matrices $\left[ g_{ij}\right]_{i,j\in \mathbb{N}}$ with at most one 1 in each row and each column such that…

Two representations of the Bessel zeta function are investigated. An incomplete representation is constructed using contour integration and an integral representation due to Hawkins is fully evaluated (analytically continued) to produce two…

The values of the Riemann zeta function at odd positive integers, $\zeta(2n+1)$, are shown to admit a representation proportional to the finite-part of the divergent integral $\int_0^{\infty} t^{-2n-1} \operatorname{csch}t\,\mathrm{d}t$.…
