Some sufficient conditions for zero asymptotic density and the expression of natural numbers as sum of values of special functions

Pavel Jahoda, Monika Pěluchová (2005)

Acta Mathematica Universitatis Ostraviensis

This paper generalizes some results from another one, namely [3]. We have studied the issues of expressing natural numbers as a sum of powers of natural numbers in paper [3]. It means we have studied sets of type A = { n 1 k 1 + n 2 k 2 + + n m k m n i { 0 } , i = 1 , 2 , m , ( n 1 , n 2 , , n m ) ( 0 , 0 , , 0 ) } , where k 1 , k 2 , , k m were given natural numbers. Now we are going to study a more general case, i.e. sets of natural numbers that are expressed as sum of integral parts of functional values of some special functions. It means that we are interested in sets of natural numbers in the form k = [ f 1 ( n 1 ) ] + [ f 2 ( n 2 ) ] + + [ f m ( n m ) ] .

Sparsity of the intersection of polynomial images of an interval

Mei-Chu Chang (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

We show that the intersection of the images of two polynomial maps on a given interval is sparse. More precisely, we prove the following. Let f ( x ) , g ( x ) p [ x ] be polynomials of degrees d and e with d ≥ e ≥ 2. Suppose M ∈ ℤ satisfies p 1 / E ( 1 + κ / ( 1 - κ ) > M > p ε , where E = e(e+1)/2 and κ = (1/d - 1/d²) (E-1)/E + ε. Assume f(x)-g(y) is absolutely irreducible. Then | f ( [ 0 , M ] ) g ( [ 0 , M ] ) | M 1 - ε .
