The Littlewood conjecture states that for any two real numbers x,y in R, lim inf_(n->infty)n|nx-nint(nx)||ny-nint(ny)|=0 where nint(z) denotes the nearest integer function. ...

An n-step Lucas sequence {L_k^((n))}_(k=1)^infty is defined by letting L_k^((n))=-1 for k<0, L_0^((n))=n, and other terms according to the linear recurrence equation ...

Lucas's theorem states that if n>=3 be a squarefree integer and Phi_n(z) a cyclotomic polynomial, then Phi_n(z)=U_n^2(z)-(-1)^((n-1)/2)nzV_n^2(z), (1) where U_n(z) and V_n(z) ...

The McCarthy-91 function is the recursive function defined for positive integer n by M(n)={M(M(n+11)) for n<=100; n-10 for n>100. (1) It takes the value 91 for all n=1, 2, ...

The sequence produced by starting with a_1=1 and applying the greedy algorithm in the following way: for each k>=2, let a_k be the least integer exceeding a_(k-1) for which ...

A minor M_(ij) is the reduced determinant of a determinant expansion that is formed by omitting the ith row and jth column of a matrix A. So, for example, the minor M_(22) of ...

The nth Monica set M_n is defined as the set of composite numbers x for which n|[S(x)-S_p(x)], where x = a_0+a_1(10^1)+...+a_d(10^d) (1) = p_1p_2...p_m, (2) and S(x) = ...

A number which is simultaneously a nonagonal number N_m and a square number S_n and therefore satisfies the Diophantine equation 1/2m(7m-5)=n^2. (1) Completing the square and ...

A number which is simultaneously a nonagonal number N_m and a triangular number T_n and therefore satisfies the Diophantine equation. 1/2m(7m-5)=1/2n(1+n). (1) Completing the ...

The Ochoa curve is the elliptic curve 3Y^2=2X^3+386X^2+256X-58195, given in Weierstrass form as y^2=x^3-440067x+106074110. The complete set of 23 integer solutions (where ...
