is a (nonconstant) arithmetic progression of positive integers. We consider a general binary quadratic form ax2 + bxy + cy' ( a , b , c E Z ) and ask the question "Can the form ax' + hxy + ry' represen1 every inleger in 1he arithmetic progression kNo + 1 for any natural numbers k and l?" In a sampling of books containing a discussion of binary quadratic forms [2]-[9], we did not find this qustl...

Feel lonely? What about reading books? Book is one of the greatest friends to accompany while in your lonely time. When you have no friends and activities somewhere and sometimes, reading book can be a great choice. This is not only for spending the time, it will increase the knowledge. Of course the b=benefits to take will relate to what kind of book that you are reading. And now, we will conc...

Some History • Earliest methods were manual – throwing dice, dealing cards, drawing balls from an urn • Mechanized devices in early 1900’s • Later, methods based on electric circuits • Many other schemes based on phone books, π etc. • Advent of computing led to interest in numerical and arithmetic methods – such methods generate numbers sequentially and are easily programmed – the most commonly...

‎We obtain the asymptotic expansion of the sequence with general term $frac{A_n}{G_n}$‎, ‎where $A_n$ and $G_n$ are the arithmetic and geometric means of the numbers $d(1),d(2),dots,d(n)$‎, ‎with $d(n)$ denoting the number of positive divisors of $n$‎. ‎Also‎, ‎we obtain some explicit bounds concerning $G_n$ and $frac{A_n}{G_n}$.
