On various restricted sumsets

For finite subsets A₁,…,A_n of a field, their sumset is given by . In this paper, we study various restricted sumsets of A₁,…,A_n with restrictions of the following forms:

Let A₁,…,An be finite subsets of a field F, and let

     

Partitions and sums with inverses in Abelian groups

Let G be an Abelian group and let be infinite. We construct a partition of A such that whenever (xn)_n<ω is a one-to-one sequence in A, g∈G and m<ω, one has

A short proof of a cross-intersection theorem of Hilton

Families A₁,…,A_k of sets are said to be cross-intersecting if for any A_i∈A_i and A_j∈A_j, i≠j. A nice result of Hilton that generalises the Erd?s-Ko-Rado (EKR) Theorem says that if r≤n/2 and A₁,…,A_k are cross-intersecting sub-families of , then

     

Note on integer powers in sumsets

Let k,m,n?2 be integers. Let A be a subset of {0,1,…,n} with 0∈A and the greatest common divisor of all elements of A is 1. Suppose that

     

A link between the Perron-Frobenius theorem and Perron’s theorem for difference equations

Let A_n,n∈N, be a sequence of k×k matrices which converge to a matrix A as n→∞. It is shown that if x_n,n∈N, is a sequence of nonnegative nonzero vectors such that

A Robertson-type uncertainty principle and quantum Fisher information

Let A₁,…,A_N be complex self-adjoint matrices and let ρ be a density matrix. The Robertson uncertainty principle

     

Notes sur la fonction ζ de Riemann, 4

Opération fondamentale de l'arithmétique, familière depuis des millénaires, la division euclidienne n'a pas livré tous ses secrets. Ainsi, notons pour k et a entiers positifs, le reste de la division euclidienne de k par a, et imaginons un instant que, par un choix convenable d'un entier n et de réels c₂,…,c_n, nous sachions rendre arbitrairement petite la quantité

     

Cyclic-type cohomology of strict inductive limits of Fréchet algebras

We present methods for the computation of the Hochschild and cyclic-type continuous homology and cohomology of some locally convex strict inductive limits of Fréchet algebras A_m. In the pure algebraic case it is known that, for the cyclic homology of A, for all n?0 [Cyclic Homology, Springer, Berlin, 1992, E.2.1.1]. We show that, for a locally convex strict inductive system of Fréchet algebras such that

A generalization of Kneser's Addition Theorem

Let A=(A₁,…,Am) be a sequence of finite subsets from an additive abelian group G. Let Σ?(A) denote the set of all group elements representable as a sum of ? elements from distinct terms of A, and set . Our main theorem is the following lower bound:

     

The generalized superoptimal preconditioner

For any given n-by-n matrix A, a specific circulant preconditioner t_F(A) introduced by Tyrtyshnikov [E. Tyrtyshnikov, Optimal and super-optimal circulant preconditioners, SIAM J. Matrix Anal. Appl. 13 (1992) 459-473] is defined to be the solution of

     

On the range of a covering function

Let be a finite system of residue classes with the moduli n₁,…,n_k distinct. By means of algebraic integers we show that the range of the covering function is not contained in any residue class with modulus greater one. In particular, the values of w(x) cannot have the same parity.
