Abstract The study focuses on the cognitive level of Mathematical Working Space (MWS) and the component of the epistemological level related to semiotic representations in two mathematical domains of rational numbers: fraction and decimal number addition. Within this scope, it aims to explore how representational flexibility develops over time. A similar developmental pattern of four distinct hierarchical levels of student representational flexibility in both domains is identified. The findings indicate that the genesis of the semiotic axis in fraction and decimal addition is not automatic, but a long process of developmental steps that could be referred to as MWS1, MWS2, MWS3, MWS4 (final). There is not a clear and stable correspondence between developmental levels of representational flexibility and school grades. Didactical implications in order to foster representational flexibility in the MWS of fraction and decimal addition are discussed.

We introduce the two new concepts, productly linearly independent sequences and productly irrational sequences. Then we prove a criterion for which certain infinite sequences of rational numbers are productly linearly independent. As a consequence we obtain a criterion for the irrationality of infinite products and a criterion for a sequence to be productly irrational.

<em>Ring of integers under the addition and multiplication as integral domain can be imbedded to the field of rational numbers. In this paper we make&nbsp; a construction such that any integral domain can be&nbsp; a field of quotient. The construction contains three steps. First, we define element of field F from elements of integral domain D. Secondly, we show that the binary operations in fare well-defined. Finally, we prove that </em><em>&nbsp;</em><em>f</em><em> </em><em>:</em><em> </em><em>D </em><em>&reg;</em><em> </em><em>F is an isomorphisma. In this case, the polynomial ring F[x] as the integral domain can be imbedded to the field of quotient.</em>

Abstract We prove that the integer part of the reciprocal of the tail of $\zeta (s)$ ζ ( s ) at a rational number $s=\frac{1}{p}$ s = 1 p for any integer with $p \geq 5$ p ≥ 5 or $s=\frac{2}{p}$ s = 2 p for any odd integer with $p \geq 5$ p ≥ 5 can be described essentially as the integer part of an explicit quantity corresponding to it. To deal with the case when $s=\frac{2}{p}$ s = 2 p , we use a result on the finiteness of integral points of certain curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ Q .
