چکیده

Let k ≥ 2 be an integer. For fixed N , we consider a set A of non-negative integers such that for all integer n ≤ N , n can be written as n = a + b, a ∈ A , b a positive integer. We are interested in a lower bound for the number of elements of A . Improving a result of Balasubramanian [1], we prove the following theorem: Theorem 1. |AN | ≥ N1− 1 k { 1 Γ(2− 1 k )Γ(1 + 1 k ) + o(1) } . 1. STATMENT OF RESULT AND PRELIMINARY LEMMAS. Let k ≥ 2 be an integer. For fixed N , we consider a set A of non-negative integers such that for all integer n ≤ N , n can be written as n = a + b, a ∈ A , b a positive integer. We are interested in a lower bound for the number of elements of A . Improving a result of Balasubramanian [1], we prove the following theorem: Theorem 1. |AN | ≥ N1− 1 k { 1 Γ(2− 1 k )Γ(1 + 1 k ) + o(1) } . Lemma 1. [1]. If f(n) ≥ 0, then a+bk≤N f(a + b) ≥ ∑N n=1 f(n). Proof. It is obvious. The equality doesn’t hold in general because an integer n may have more than one representation as n = a + b. 1 2 Lemma 2. If f(x) = g( x N ), g continuous and g differentiable except at a finite number of points, then

Powers of Hamiltonian paths in interval graphs

We give a simple proof that the obvious necessary conditions for a graph to contain the kth power of a Hamiltonian path are sufficient for the class of interval graphs. The proof is based on showing that a greedy algorithm tests for the existence of Hamiltonian path powers in interval graphs. We will also discuss covers by powers of paths and analogues of the Hamiltonian completion number. c © ...

Derivatives of tensor powers and their norms

The norm of the mth derivative of the map that takes an operator to its kth antisymmetric tensor power is evaluated. The case m = 1 has been studied earlier by Bhatia and Friedland [R. Bhatia and S. Friedland. Variation of Grassman powers and spectra. Linear Algebra and its Applications, 40:1–18, 1981]. For this purpose a multilinear version of a theorem of Russo and Dye is proved: it is shown ...
