Generalized weighted quasi-arithmetic means and the Kolmogorov-Nagumo theorem

Janusz Matkowski (2013)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

A generalization of the weighted quasi-arithmetic mean generated by continuous and increasing (decreasing) functions f , . . . , f k : I , k ≥ 2, denoted by A [ f , . . . , f k ] , is considered. Some properties of A [ f , . . . , f k ] , including “associativity” assumed in the Kolmogorov-Nagumo theorem, are shown. Convex and affine functions involving this type of means are considered. Invariance of a quasi-arithmetic mean with respect to a special mean-type mapping built of generalized means is applied in solving a functional equation. For...

Iterated quasi-arithmetic mean-type mappings

Paweł Pasteczka (2016)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We work with a fixed N-tuple of quasi-arithmetic means M , . . . , M N generated by an N-tuple of continuous monotone functions f , . . . , f N : I (I an interval) satisfying certain regularity conditions. It is known [initially Gauss, later Gustin, Borwein, Toader, Lehmer, Schoenberg, Foster, Philips et al.] that the iterations of the mapping I N b ( M ( b ) , . . . , M N ( b ) ) tend pointwise to a mapping having values on the diagonal of I N . Each of [all equal] coordinates of the limit is a new mean, called the Gaussian product of the means M , . . . , M N taken...

On a certain class of arithmetic functions

Antonio M. Oller-Marcén (2017)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

A homothetic arithmetic function of ratio K is a function f : R such that f ( K n ) = f ( n ) for every n . Periodic arithmetic funtions are always homothetic, while the converse is not true in general. In this paper we study homothetic and periodic arithmetic functions. In particular we give an upper bound for the number of elements of f ( ) in terms of the period and the ratio of f .

Numerical characterization of nef arithmetic divisors on arithmetic surfaces

Atsushi Moriwaki (2014)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Similarity:

In this paper, we give a numerical characterization of nef arithmetic -Cartier divisors of C 0 -type on an arithmetic surface. Namely an arithmetic -Cartier divisor D ¯ of C 0 -type is nef if and only if D ¯ is pseudo-effective and deg ^ ( D ¯ 2 ) = vol ^ ( D ¯ ) .

On generalized square-full numbers in an arithmetic progression

Angkana Sripayap, Pattira Ruengsinsub, Teerapat Srichan (2022)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let a and b . Denote by R a , b the set of all integers n > 1 whose canonical prime representation n = p 1 α 1 p 2 α 2 p r α r has all exponents α i ( 1 i r ) being a multiple of a or belonging to the arithmetic progression a t + b , t 0 : = { 0 } . All integers in R a , b are called generalized square-full integers. Using the exponent pair method, an upper bound for character sums over generalized square-full integers is derived. An application on the distribution of generalized square-full integers in an arithmetic progression is given. ...

A structure theorem for sets of small popular doubling

Przemysław Mazur (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

We prove that every set A ⊂ ℤ satisfying x m i n ( 1 A * 1 A ( x ) , t ) ( 2 + δ ) t | A | for t and δ in suitable ranges must be very close to an arithmetic progression. We use this result to improve the estimates of Green and Morris for the probability that a random subset A ⊂ ℕ satisfies |ℕ∖(A+A)| ≥ k; specifically, we show that ( | ( A + A ) | k ) = Θ ( 2 - k / 2 ) .

Algebraic and topological structures on the set of mean functions and generalization of the AGM mean

Bakir Farhi (2013)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We present new structures and results on the set of mean functions on a given symmetric domain in ℝ². First, we construct on a structure of abelian group in which the neutral element is the arithmetic mean; then we study some symmetries in that group. Next, we construct on a structure of metric space under which is the closed ball with center the arithmetic mean and radius 1/2. We show in particular that the geometric and harmonic means lie on the boundary of . Finally, we give...

On the least almost-prime in arithmetic progressions

Liuying Wu (2024)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let 𝒫 2 denote a positive integer with at most 2 prime factors, counted according to multiplicity. For integers a , q such that ( a , q ) = 1 , let 𝒫 2 ( q , a ) denote the least 𝒫 2 in the arithmetic progression { n q + a } n = 1 . It is proved that for sufficiently large q , we have 𝒫 2 ( q , a ) q 1 . 825 . This result constitutes an improvement upon that of J. Li, M. Zhang and Y. Cai (2023), who obtained 𝒫 2 ( q , a ) q 1 . 8345 .

Enrique González-Jiménez (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

Let m > 0 and a,q ∈ ℚ. Denote by m ( a , q ) the set of rational numbers d such that a, a + q, ..., a + (m-1)q form an arithmetic progression in the Edwards curve E d : x ² + y ² = 1 + d x ² y ² . We study the set m ( a , q ) and we parametrize it by the rational points of an algebraic curve.

Aposyndesis in

José del Carmen Alberto-Domínguez, Gerardo Acosta, Maira Madriz-Mendoza (2023)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We consider the Golomb and the Kirch topologies in the set of natural numbers. Among other results, we show that while with the Kirch topology every arithmetic progression is aposyndetic, in the Golomb topology only for those arithmetic progressions P ( a , b ) with the property that every prime number that divides a also divides b , it follows that being connected, being Brown, being totally Brown, and being aposyndetic are all equivalent. This characterizes the arithmetic progressions which are...

A problem of Rankin on sets without geometric progressions

Melvyn B. Nathanson, Kevin O'Bryant (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

A geometric progression of length k and integer ratio is a set of numbers of the form a , a r , . . . , a r k - 1 for some positive real number a and integer r ≥ 2. For each integer k ≥ 3, a greedy algorithm is used to construct a strictly decreasing sequence ( a i ) i = 1 of positive real numbers with a₁ = 1 such that the set G ( k ) = i = 1 ( a 2 i , a 2 i - 1 ] contains no geometric progression of length k and integer ratio. Moreover, G ( k ) is a maximal subset of (0,1] that contains no geometric progression of length k and integer ratio. It is also proved that...

Some results on quasi-t-dual Baer modules

Rachid Tribak, Yahya Talebi, Mehrab Hosseinpour (2023)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

Let R be a ring and let M be an R -module with S = End R ( M ) . Consider the preradical Z ¯ for the category of right R -modules Mod- R introduced by Y. Talebi and N. Vanaja in 2002 and defined by Z ¯ ( M ) = { U M : M / U is small in its injective hull } . The module M is called quasi-t-dual Baer if ϕ ϕ ( Z ¯ 2 ( M ) ) is a direct summand of M for every two-sided ideal of S , where Z ¯ 2 ( M ) = Z ¯ ( Z ¯ ( M ) ) . In this paper, we show that M is quasi-t-dual Baer if and only if Z ¯ 2 ( M ) is a direct summand of M and Z ¯ 2 ( M ) is a quasi-dual Baer module. It is also shown that any direct...
