Every Natural Number Is the Sum of Forty-nine Palindromes
It is shown that the set of decimal palindromes is an additive basis for the natural numbers. Specifically, we prove that every natural number can be expressed as the sum of forty-nine (possibly zero) decimal palindromes. 1. Statement of Result Let N ..= {0, 1, 2, . . .} denote the set of natural numbers (including zero). Every number n 2 N has a unique decimal representation of the form
متن کاملEvery Frame Is a Sum of Three (but Not Two) Orthonormal Bases - and Other Frame Representations
We show that every frame for a Hilbert space H can be written as a (multiple of a) sum of three orthonormal bases for H. We next show that this result is best possible by including a result of N.J. Kalton: A frame can be represented as a linear combination of two orthonormal bases if and only if it is a Riesz basis. We further show that every frame can be written as a (multiple of a) sum of two...
متن کاملEvery Sum System Is Divisible
We show that every sum system is divisible. Combined with B. V. R. Bhat and R. Srinivasan’s result, this shows that every product system arising from a sum system (and every generalized CCR flow) is either of type I or type III. A necessarily and sufficient condition for such a product system to be of type I is obtained.
متن کاملThe unit sum number of discrete modules
In this paper, we show that every element of a discrete module is a sum of two units if and only if its endomorphism ring has no factor ring isomorphic to $Z_{2}$. We also characterize unit sum number equal to two for the endomorphism ring of quasi-discrete modules with finite exchange property.
متن کاملThe unit sum number of Baer rings
In this paper we prove that each element of any regular Baer ring is a sum of two units if no factor ring of R is isomorphic to Z_2 and we characterize regular Baer rings with unit sum numbers $omega$ and $infty$. Then as an application, we discuss the unit sum number of some classes of group rings.
