Let $a > 1$. Then $a^n < n!$ for some positive integer $n$. There are several numerical sequences associated with the study of the smallest such integer which are studied in \cite{RadFact} and \cite{RadGamma}. Here we continue the…

Let $A, B$ be polynomial rings over a field $k$, and $I\subseteq A, J\subseteq B$ proper homogeneous ideals. We analyze the associated primes of powers of $I+J\subseteq A\otimes_k B$ given the data on the summands. The associated primes of…

We give a characterization of all pairs $(k,n)$ of positive integers for which the ratio $$ \frac{1^k-2^k+3^k-\dots+(-1)^{n+1} n^k}{1^k-2^k+3^k-\dots+(-1)^{n}(n-1)^k} $$ of two consecutive alternating power sums is an integer.

The explicit formulas for the sums of positive powers of the integers $s_i$ unrepresentable by the triple of integers $d_1,d_2,d_3\in {\mathbb N}, \gcd(d_1,d_2,d_3)=1$, are derived.

We consider the sum of squared logarithms inequality and investigate possible connections with the theory of majorization. We also discuss alternative sufficient conditions on two sets of vectors $a,b\in\mathbb{R}_+^n$ so that…

We study sums with multiplicative functions that take values over a non-homogenous Beatty sequence. We then apply our result in a few special cases to obtain asymptotic formulas such as the number of integers in a Beatty sequence…

The non-empty finite subsets of a multiplicatively written monoid form a monoid under setwise multiplication. The same holds for finite subsets containing the identity element. Partly due to their unusual arithmetic properties, these…

For $n=1,2,3,\ldots$ let $S_n$ be the sum of the first $n$ primes. We mainly show that the sequence $a_n=\root n\of{S_n/n}\ (n=1,2,3,\ldots)$ is strictly decreasing, and moreover the sequence $a_{n+1}/a_n\ (n=10,11,\ldots)$ is strictly…

We prove a conjecture posted in the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, namely that there are exactly five positive integers that can be written in more than one way as the sum of a nonnegative power of 2 and a nonnegative power of 3.…

The aim of this paper is to prove wordlessly the sum formula of $1^{k}+2^{k}+\ldots +n^{k}$, $k\in\{1,2,3\}$.

This paper presents expressions for sums of powers of sine and cosine in terms of the basis for the field extension obtained by adjoining the sine or cosine to the field of rational numbers.

We consider the sum of power weighted nearest neighbor distances in a sample of size n from a multivariate density f of possibly unbounded support. We give various criteria guaranteeing that this sum satisfies a law of large numbers for…

We consider real sequences $(f_n)$ that satisfy a linear recurrence with constant coefficients. We show that the density of the positivity set of such a sequence always exists. In the special case where the sequence has no positive…

In this paper, we explore identities that allow for representation of positive integers raised to positive integral powers as sums of nested sums of smaller positive integral powers. We begin by establishing the base identity involving…

We introduce an elementary congruence-based procedure to look for q-th power multiples in arbitrary binary recurrence sequences (q>2). The procedure allows to prove that no such multiples exist in many instances.

The variety of sums of powers of a homogeneous polynomial of degree d in n variables is defined and investigated in some examples, old and new. These varieties are studied via apolarity and syzygies. Classical results of Sylvester (1851),…

We evaluate various binomial sums involving the powers of Fibonacci and Lucas numbers.

This paper is a study of power series, where the coefficients are binomial expressions (iterated finite differences). Our results can be used for series summation, for series transformation, or for asymptotic expansions involving Stirling…

Using appropriate power series evaluations, we determine all moments of arbitrary positive powers of the arcsine. As consequences we evaluate several doubly infinite classes of power series involving central binomial coefficients and…

We give a new short proof of the most simple relation between consecutive power sums of the first m positive integers.
