Arithmetic properties of Apery numbers

Let (A_n)_n1 be the sequence of Apéry numbers with a generalterm given by . In thispaper, we prove that both the inequalities (A_n) > c₀ loglog log n and P(A_n) > c₀ (log n log log n)^1/2 hold fora set of positive integers n of asymptotic density 1. Here,(m) is the number of distinct prime factors of m, P(m) is thelargest prime factor of m and c₀ > 0 is an absolute constant.The method applies to more general sequences satisfying botha linear recurrence of order 2 with polynomial coefficientsand certain Lucas-type congruences.

Arithmetic properties of 7-regular partitions

Let \(b_{\ell }(n)\) denote the number of \(\ell \)-regular partitions of n. By employing the modular equation of seventh order, we establish the following congruence for \(b_{7}(n)\) modulo powers of 7: for \(n\ge 0\) and \(j\ge 1\),

$$\begin{aligned} b_{7}\left( 7^{2j-1}n+\frac{3\cdot 7^{2j}-1}{4}\right) \equiv 0 \pmod {7^j}. \end{aligned}$$

We also find some infinite families of congruences modulo 2 and 7 satisfied by \(b_{7}(n)\).

     

Arithmetic properties of the Ramanujan function

We study some arithmetic properties of the Ramanujan function τ(n), such as the largest prime divisorP (τ(n)) and the number of distinct prime divisors ω (τ (n)) of τ(n) for various sequences ofn. In particular, we show thatP(τ(n)) ≥ (logn)^33/31+o(1) for infinitely many n, and

Arithmetic properties of three-dimensional algebraic tori

We compute the Shafarevich-Tate group, the kernel of the weak approximation and the Manin groups of three-dimensional algebraic tori defined over an algebraic number field. A minimal example of a torus with fractional Tamagawa number is constructed. A criterion for the validity of the Hasse norm principle for extensions of degree four of an algebraic number field is given.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

Universal properties of bicategories of polynomials

We establish the universal properties of the bicategory of polynomials, considering both cartesian and general morphisms between these polynomials. A direct proof of these universal properties would be impractical due to the complicated coherence conditions arising from polynomial composition; however, in this paper we avoid most of these coherence conditions using the properties of generic bicategories.In addition, we give a new proof of the universal properties of the bicategory of spans, and also establish the universal properties of the bicategory of spans with invertible 2-cells; showing how these properties may be used to describe the universal properties of polynomials.     

Divisibility properties of generalized Laguerre polynomials

In this paper we give effective upper bounds for the degree k of divisors (over ?) of generalized Laguerre polynomials L^α_n(x), i.e. of for α = −tn − s − 1 and α = tn + s with t,s ∈ ?, t = O(log k), s = O(k log k) and k sufficiently large.     

Some properties of Hermite-based Sheffer polynomials

In this paper, the concepts and the formalism associated with monomiality principle and Sheffer sequences are used to introduce family of Hermite-based Sheffer polynomials. Some properties of Hermite-Sheffer polynomials are considered. Further, an operational formalism providing a correspondence between Sheffer and Hermite-Sheffer polynomials is developed. Furthermore, this correspondence is used to derive several new identities and results for members of Hermite-Sheffer family.
