For a simple connected graph [Formula: see text] let [Formula: see text] be a coloring of [Formula: see text] where two adjacent vertices may be assigned the same color. Let [Formula: see text] be the sum of colors of neighbors of any vertex [Formula: see text] The coloring [Formula: see text] is a sigma coloring of [Formula: see text] if for any two adjacent vertices [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] The least number of colors required in a sigma coloring of [Formula: see text] is the sigma chromatic number of [Formula: see text] and is denoted by [Formula: see text] A sigma coloring of a graph is a neighbor-distinguishing type of coloring and it is known that the sigma chromatic number of a graph is bounded above by its chromatic number. It is also known that for a path [Formula: see text] and a cycle [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] if [Formula: see text] is even. Let [Formula: see text] the join of the graphs [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is not an odd cycle for any [Formula: see text]. It has been shown that if [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] then [Formula: see text]. In this study, we give necessary and sufficient conditions under which [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] is the join of copies of [Formula: see text] and/or [Formula: see text] for the same value of [Formula: see text]. Let [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] be positive integers with [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] In this paper, we show that [Formula: see text] if and only if [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text] is odd, [Formula: see text] is even and [Formula: see text]; and [Formula: see text] if and only if [Formula: see text] is even and [Formula: see text] We also obtain necessary and sufficient conditions on [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], so that [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text] other than the cases [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]

Triangular numbers have been of interest and continuously studied due to their beautiful representations, nice properties, and various links with other figurate numbers. For positive integers n and l, the nth l-isosceles triangular number is a generalization of triangular numbers defined to be the arithmetic sum of the formT(n, l) = 1 + (1 + l) + (1 + 2l) + · · · + (1 + (n − 1)l).In this paper, we focus on characterizations and identities for isosceles triangular numbers as well as their links with other figurate numbers. Recursive formulas for constructions of isosceles triangular numbers are given together with necessary and sufficient conditions for a positive integer to be a sum of isosceles triangular  numbers. Various identities for isosceles triangular numbers are established. Results on triangular numbers can be viewed as a special case.

We consider the problem of finding necessary and sufficient conditions for a positive integer to be the sum of an arithmetic progression of positive integers with a given common difference, starting with the case when the common difference is unity.

A Zipf's law is a probability distribution on the positive integers which decays algebraically. Such laws describe (approximately) a large class of phenomena. We formulate a model for such phenomena and, in terms of our model, give necessary and sufficient conditions for a Zipf's law to hold.

It is proved that a ring is periodic if and only if, for any elementsxandy, there exist positive integersk,l,m, andnwith eitherk≠morl≠n, depending onxandy, for whichxkyl=xmyn. Necessary and sufficient conditions are established for a ring to be a direct sum of a nil ring and aJ-ring.

The rational fractiona, c, p, q positive integers, reduces to a polynomial under conditions specified in a result of Grosswald who also stated necessary and sufficient conditions for all the coefficients to tie nonnegative.This last result is given a different proof using lemmas interesting in themselves.The method of proof is used in order to give necessary and sufficient conditions for the positive coefficients to be equal to one. For a < 2pq, a = αp + βq, α, β nonnegative integers, c > 1, the exact positions of the nonzero coefficients are established. Also a necessary and sufficient condition for the number of vanishing coefficients to be minimal is given.

Suppose throughout that {kn} is a sequence of positive integers, thatthat k0 = 1 if l0 = 1, and that {un(r)}; (r = 0, 1, …, kn – 1, n = 0, 1, …) is a sequence of real numbers. We shall be concerned with the problem of establishing necessary and sufficient conditions for there to be a function a satisfying(1)and certain additional conditions. The case l0 = 0, kn = 1 for n = 0, 1, … of the problem is the version of the classical moment problem considered originally by Hausdorff [5], [6], [7]; the above formulation will emerge as a natural generalization thereof.

Let [Formula: see text] denote the cyclic group of order [Formula: see text], and let Hol([Formula: see text]) denote the holomorph of [Formula: see text]. In this paper, for any odd integer [Formula: see text], we find necessary and sufficient conditions on an integer [Formula: see text], with [Formula: see text], such that [Formula: see text] is irreducible over [Formula: see text]. When [Formula: see text] is prime and [Formula: see text] is irreducible, we show that the Galois group over [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is isomorphic to either Hol([Formula: see text]) or Hol([Formula: see text]), depending on whether there exists [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text]. Finally, we prove that there exist infinitely many positive integers [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] is irreducible over [Formula: see text] and that [Formula: see text] is a basis for the ring of integers of [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text].

AbstractLet T be an ergodic measure preserving point transformation from a probability space X onto itself. Assume that is an increasing sequence of subsets of the positive integers. Conditions are given which are sufficient for the ergodic maximal function associated with these subsets to be weak type (p, p). These conditions are shown to be both necessary and sufficient for a larger two-sided maximal function. The conditions are in the form of covering lemmas for the integers.
