Let M be a finite quasigroup of order n. For any integer k ≥ 2, let H(k, M) be the smallest positive integer h such that there exist h subsets Ai (i = 1, 2, …, h) such that Ai … Ah = M and |Ai| = k for every i = 1, 2, …, h. Define H(k, n) = max H(k, M). It is proved in this paper that.

For any positive integers n and v letwhere d runs through all the positive divisors of n. For each positive integer k and real x > 1, denote by N(v, k; x) the number of positive integers n ≦ x for which σv(n) is not divisible by k. Then Watson [6] has shown that, when v is odd,as x → ∞; it is assumed here and throughout that v and k are fixed and independent of x. It follows, in particular, that σ (n) is almost always divisible by k. A brief account of the ideas used by Watson will be found in § 10.6 of Hardy's book on Ramanujan [2].

This paper is concerned with the numbers which are relatively prime to a given positive integerwhere the p's are the distinct prime factors of n. Since these numbers recur periodically with period n, it suffices to study the ϕ(n) numbers ≤n and relatively prime to n.

Regular Digraph

AbstractA number of constructions are given for arc-transitive digraphs, based on modifications of permutation representations of finite groups. In particular, it is shown that for every positive integer s and for any transitive permutation group p of degree k, there are infinitely many examples of a finite k-regular digraph with a group of automorphisms acting transitively on s-arcs (but not on (s + 1)-arcs), such that the stabilizer of a vertex induces the action of P on the out-neighbour set.

Letkbe any algebraically closed field, and denote byk((t)) the field of formal power series in one indeterminatetoverk. Letso thatKis the field of Puiseux expansions with coefficients ink(each element ofKis a formal power series intl/rfor some positive integerr). It is well-known thatKis algebraically closed if and only ifkis of characteristic zero [1, p. 61]. For examples relating to ramified extensions of fields with valuation [9, §6] it is useful to have a field analogous toKwhich is algebraically closed whenkhas non-zero characteristicp. In this paper, I prove that the setLof all formal power series of the form Σaitei(where (ei) is well-ordered,ei=mi|nprt,n∈ Ζ,mi∈ Ζ,ai∈k,ri∈ Ν) forms an algebraically closed field.

Mennicke (2) has given a class of three-generator, three-relation finite groups. In this paper we present a further class of three-generator, threerelation groups which we show are finite.The groups presented are defined as:with α|γ| ≠ 1, β|γ| ≠ 1, γ ≠ 0.We prove the following result.THEOREM 1. Each of the groups presented is a finite soluble group.We state the following theorem proved by Macdonald (1).THEOREM 2. G1(α, β, 1) is a finite nilpotent group.1. In this section we make some elementary remarks.

Let n be a positive integer and put N = {1, 2, . . . , n}. A collection {S1, S2, . . . , St} of subsets of N is called determining if, for any T ⊂ N, the cardinalities of the t intersections T ∩ Sj determine T uniquely. Let €1, €2, . . . , €n be n variables with range {0, 1}. It is clear that a determining collection {Sj) has the property that the sums

The following note which deals with the effect of a certain determinantal operator when it acts upon a product of determinants was suggested by the original proof which Dr. Alfred Young gave of the propertysubsisting between the positive P and the negative N substitutional operators, θ being a positive integer. This result which establishes the idempotency of the expression θ−1NP within an appropriate algebra is fundamental in the Quantitative Substitutional Analysis that Young developed.

The object of this paper is to prove the following:Theorem. Suppose that λ, μ are real non-zero numbers, not both negative, λ is irrational, and k is a positive integer. Then there exist infinitely many primes p and pairs of primes p1, p2 such thatIn particular [λp1 + μp2] represents infinitely many primes.Here [x] denotes the greatest integer not exceeding x.
