On arithmetic progressions on Edwards curves

Enrique González-Jiménez (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

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.

On asymptotic density and uniformly distributed sequences

Ryszard Frankiewicz, Grzegorz Plebanek (1996)

Studia Mathematica

Assuming Martin's axiom we show that if X is a dyadic space of weight at most continuum then every Radon measure on X admits a uniformly distributed sequence. This answers a problem posed by Mercourakis [10]. Our proof is based on an auxiliary result concerning finitely additive measures on ω and asymptotic density.

On B 2 k -sequences

Martin Helm (1993)

Acta Arithmetica

Introduction. An old conjecture of P. Erdős repeated many times with a prize offer states that the counting function A(n) of a B r -sequence A satisfies l i m i n f n ( A ( n ) / ( n 1 / r ) ) = 0 . The conjecture was proved for r=2 by P. Erdős himself (see [5]) and in the cases r=4 and r=6 by J. C. M. Nash in [4] and by Xing-De Jia in [2] respectively. A very interesting proof of the conjecture in the case of all even r=2k by Xing-De Jia is to appear in the Journal of Number Theory [3]. Here we present a different, very short proof of Erdős’...

On Balancing and Lucas-balancing Quaternions

Bijan Kumar Patel, Prasanta Kumar Ray (2021)

Communications in Mathematics

The aim of this article is to investigate two new classes of quaternions, namely, balancing and Lucas-balancing quaternions that are based on balancing and Lucas-balancing numbers, respectively. Further, some identities including Binet's formulas, summation formulas, Catalan's identity, etc. concerning these quaternions are also established.

On Bernoulli identities and applications.

Minking Eie, King F. Lai (1998)

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

Bernoulli numbers appear as special values of zeta functions at integers and identities relating the Bernoulli numbers follow as a consequence of properties of the corresponding zeta functions. The most famous example is that of the special values of the Riemann zeta function and the Bernoulli identities due to Euler. In this paper we introduce a general principle for producing Bernoulli identities and apply it to zeta functions considered by Shintani, Zagier and Eie. Our results include some of...
