This is a translation from Latin of E348 'Methodus facilis motus corporum coelestium utcunque perturbatos ad rationem calculi astronomici revocandi', in which Euler develops a method to alleviate the astronomical computations in a typical…
This paper derives a way to express differentiable complex-valued functions as the sum of powers of $(1-e^{\lambda x})$, where $\lambda\in\mathbb{R}$, with an explicit formula for the remainder. This formulation is then used to associate an…
Lie group analysis of the difference equations of the form \begin{align*} x_{n+1} =\frac{x_{n-4}x_{n-3}}{x_{n}(a_n +b_nx_{n-4}x_{n-3}x_{n-2}x_{n-1})}, \end{align*} where $a_n$ and $b_n$ are real sequences, is performed and non-trivial…
Let $\Lambda$ be the von Mangoldt function and $r_{Q}\left(n\right)=\sum_{m_{1}+m_{2}^{2}+m_{3}^{2}=n}\Lambda\left(m_{1}\right)$ be the counting function for the numbers that can be written as sum of a prime and two squares (that we will…
These notes are devoted to the theory of exponential sums over finite fields. The first chapter recalls some of the number-theoretic interest of such sums. The second chapter discusses the $L$-functions attached to such sums, the "Weil…
Euler presents a third proof of the Fermat theorem, the one that lets us call it the Euler-Fermat theorem. This seems to be the proof that Euler likes best. He also proves that the smallest power x^n that, when divided by a numer N, prime…
Sums of the form $\sum_{q \leq N_1 < \cdots < N_m \leq n}{a_{(m);N_m}\cdots a_{(2);N_2}a_{(1);N_1}}$ date back to the sixteen century when Vi\`ete illustrated that the relation linking the roots and coefficients of a polynomial had this…
Let $ x\geq 1 $ be a large number, let $ [x]=x-\{x\} $ be the largest integer function, and let $ \varphi(n)$ be the Euler totient function. The result $ \sum_{n\leq x}\varphi([x/n])=(6/\pi^2)x\log x+O\left ( x(\log x)^{2/3}(\log\log…
We prove several new variants of the Lambert series factorization theorem established in the first article "Generating special arithmetic functions by Lambert series factorizations" by Merca and Schmidt (2017). Several characteristic…
For a set $A$ of non-negative integers, let $R_A(n)$ denote the number of solutions to the equation $n=a+a'$ with $a$, $a'\in A$. Denote by $\chi_A(n)$ the characteristic function of $A$. Let $b_n>0$ be a sequence satisfying $\limsup_{n\to…
This is an English translation from the Latin original of Leonhard Euler's ``Solutio facilior problematis Diophantei circa triangulum, in quo rectae ex angulis latera opposita bisecantes rationaliter exprimantur''. In this paper, Euler…
We obtain an upper bound for the sum $\sum_{n\leq N} (a_{n}/\varphi (a_{n}))^{s}$, where $\varphi$ is Euler's totient function, $s\in \mathbb{N}$, and $a_{1},\ldots, a_{N}$ are positive integers (not necessarily distinct) with some…
In this note, we first review the novel approach to power sums put forward recently by Muschielok in arXiv:2207.01935v1, which can be summarized by the formula $S_m^{(a)}(n) = \sum_{k} c_{mk} \psi_k^{(a)}(n)$, where the $c_{mk}$'s are the…
For any two arithmetic functions $f,g$ let $\bullet$ be the commutative and associative arithmetic convolution $(f\bullet g)(k):=\sum_{m=0}^k \left( \begin{array}{c} k m \end{array} \right)f(m)g(k-m)$ and for any $n\in\mathbb{N},$…
When people mention the mathematical achievements of Euclid, his geometrical achievements always spring to mind. But, his Number-Theoretical achievements (See Books 7, 8 and 9 in his magnum opus \emph{Elements} [1]) are rarely spoken. The…
Euler discovered recurrence for divisor sum functions as a consequence of the pentagonal numbers theorem. With similar idea and also motivated by Ewell's work in 1977, we prove new recurrences for certain divisor sum functions and…
In correspondence with Goldbach, Euler began investigating series of the form $\sum_{k \geq 1} k^{-m}\left(1 + 2^{-n} + \cdots + k^{-n}\right)$, which are known today as Euler sums. For the case where $n=1$ and $m \geq 2$, Euler was able to…
In this note we will discuss Euler's solution of the simple difference equation that he gave in his paper{\it ``De serierum determinatione seu nova methodus inveniendi terminos generales serierum"} \cite{E189} (E189:``On the determination…
We present the singular Euler--Maclaurin expansion, a new method for the efficient computation of large singular sums that appear in long-range interacting systems in condensed matter and quantum physics. In contrast to the traditional…
For a given positive integers $m$ and $\ell$, we give a complete list of positive integers $n$ for which their exist $m$th roots of unity $x_1,\dots,x_n \in \mathbb{C}$ such that $x_1^{\ell} + \cdots + x_n^{\ell}=0$. This extends the…
