A divisor d of a positive integer n is called a unitary divisor if \gcd(d, n/d)=1; and d is called a bi-unitary divisor of n if the greatest common unitary divisor of d and n/d is unity. The concept of a bi-unitary divisor is due to D. Surynarayana (1972). Let \sig^{**}(n) denote the sum of the bi-unitary divisors of n. A positive integer n is called a bi-unitary multiperfect number if \sig^{**}(n)=kn for some k\geq 3. For k=3 we obtain the bi-unitary triperfect numbers. Peter Hagis (1987) proved that there are no odd bi-unitary multiperfect numbers. The present paper is part IV(b) in a series of papers on even bi-unitary multiperfect numbers. In parts I, II and III we considered bi-unitary triperfect numbers of the form n=2^{a}u, where 1\leq a \leq 6 and u is odd. In part IV(a) we solved partly the case a=7. We proved that if n is a bi-unitary triperfect number of the form n=2^{7}.5^{b}.17^{c}.v, where (v, 2.5.17)=1, then b\geq 2. We then solved completely the case b=2. In the present paper we give some partial results concerning the case b\ge 3 under the assumption 3\nmid n.

A divisor d of a positive integer n is a unitary divisor if d and n/d are relatively prime. An integer is said to be unitary perfect if it equals the sum of its proper unitary divisors. Subbarao and Warren [2] gave the first four unitary perfect numbers: 6, 60, 90 and 87360. In 1969,1 reported [3] thatis also unitary perfect. The purpose of this paper is to show that this last number, which for brevity we denote by W, is indeed the next unitary perfect number after 87360.

A divisor d of a positive integer n is called a unitary divisor if \gcd(d, n/d)=1; and d is called a bi-unitary divisor of n if the greatest common unitary divisor of d and n/d is unity. The concept of a bi-unitary divisor is due to D. Surynarayana (1972). Let \sigma^{**}(n) denote the sum of the bi-unitary divisors of n.

Peter Hagis (1987) proved that there are no odd bi-unitary multiperfect numbers. The present paper is Part IV(a) in a series of papers on even bi-unitary multiperfect numbers. In parts I, II and III we found all bi-unitary triperfect numbers of the form n=2^{a}u, where 1\leq a \leq 6 and u is odd. There exist exactly ten such numbers. In this part we solve partly the case a=7. We prove that if n is a bi-unitary triperfect number of the form n=2^{7}.5^{b}.17^{c}.v, where (v, 2.5.17)=1, then b\geq 2. We then confine ourselves to the case b=2. We prove that in this case we have c=1 and further show that n=2^{7}.3^{2}.5^{2}.7.13.17=44553600 is the only bi-unitary triperfect number of this form.

Let k be a fixed integer ≧ 2. A positive integer n is called unitarily k-free, if the multiplicity of each prime factor of n is not a multiple of k; or equivalently, if n is not divisible unitarily by the k-th power of any integer > 1. By a unitary divisor, we mean as usual, a divisor d> 0 of n such that (d, n/d) = 1. The interger 1 is also considered to be unitarily k-free. The concept of a unitarily k-free integer was first introduced by Cohen (1961; §1). Let denote the set of unitarily k-free integers. When k = 2, the set coincides with the set Q* of exponentially odd integers (that is, integers in whose canonical representation each exponent is odd) discussed by Cohen himself in an earlier paper (1960; §1 and §6). A divisor d > 0 of the positive integer n is called a unitarily k-free divisor of n if d ∈ . Let (n) denote the number of unitarily k-free divisors of n.

A divisor $d$ of a positive integer $n$ is called a unitary divisor if $\gcd(d, n/d)=1;$ and $d$ is called a bi-unitary divisor of $n$ if the greatest common unitary divisor of $d$ and $n/d$ is unity. The concept of a bi-unitary divisor is due to D. Surynarayana (1972). Let $\sig^{**}(n)$ denote the sum of the bi-unitary divisors of $n$. A positive integer $n$ is called a bi-unitary multiperfect number if $\sig^{**}(n)=kn$ for some $k\geq 3$. For $k=3$ we obtain the bi-unitary triperfect numbers. Peter Hagis (1987) proved that there are no odd bi-unitary multiperfect numbers. The present paper is part V in a series of papers on even bi-unitary multiperfect numbers. In parts I, II and III we determined all bi-unitary triperfect numbers of the form $n=2^{a}u$, where $1\leq a \leq 6$ and $u$ is odd. In parts IV(a-b) we solved partly the case $a=7$. In this paper we fix the case $a=8$. In fact, we show that $n=57657600=2^{8}.3^{2}.5^{2}.7.11.13$ is the only bi-unitary triperfect number of the present type.

Let $G$ be a graph. For a given positive integer $d$, let $f_G(d)$ denote the largest integer $t$ such that in every coloring of the edges of $G$ with two colors there is a monochromatic subgraph with minimum degree at least $d$ and order at least $t$. Let $f_G(d)=0$ in case there is a $2$-coloring of the edges of $G$ with no such monochromatic subgraph. Let $f(n,k,d)$ denote the minimum of $f_G(d)$ where $G$ ranges over all graphs with $n$ vertices and minimum degree at least $k$. In this paper we establish $f(n,k,d)$ whenever $k$ or $n-k$ are fixed, and $n$ is sufficiently large. We also consider the case where more than two colors are allowed.

AbstractLet R be an associative ring with unity. Then R is said to be a right McCoy ring when the equation f (x)g(x) = 0 (over R[x]), where 0 ≠ f (x), g(x) ∈ R[x], implies that there exists a nonzero element c ∈ R such that f (x)c = 0. In this paper, we characterize some basic ring extensions of right McCoy rings and we prove that if R is a right McCoy ring, then R[x]/(xn) is a right McCoy ring for any positive integer n ≥ 2.

Abstract The article focuses on the evaluation of convolution sums $${W_k}(n): = \mathop \sum \nolimits_{_{m < {n \over k}}} \sigma (m)\sigma (n - km)$$ involving the sum of divisor function $$\sigma (n)$$ for k =21, 33, and 35. In this article, our aim is to obtain certain Eisenstein series of level 21 and use them to evaluate the convolution sums for level 21. We also make use of the existing Eisenstein series identities for level 33 and 35 in evaluating the convolution sums for level 33 and 35. Most of the convolution sums were evaluated using the theory of modular forms, whereas we have devised a technique which is free from the theory of modular forms. As an application, we determine a formula for the number of representations of a positive integer n by the octonary quadratic form $$(x_1^2 + {x_1}{x_2} + ax_2^2 + x_3^2 + {x_3}{x_4} + ax_4^2) + b(x_5^2 + {x_5}{x_6} + ax_6^2 + x_7^2 + {x_7}{x_8} + ax_8^2)$$ , for (a, b)=(1, 7), (1, 11), (2, 3), and (2, 5).

Consider the Diophantine equation yn=x+x(x+1)+⋯+x(x+1)⋯(x+k), where x, y, n, and k are integers. In 2016, a research article, entitled – ’power values of sums of products of consecutive integers’, primarily proved the inequality n= 19,736 to obtain all solutions (x,y,n) of the equation for the fixed positive integers k≤10. In this paper, we improve the bound as n≤ 10,000 for the same case k≤10, and for any fixed general positive integer k, we give an upper bound depending only on k for n.

AbstractA repdigit is a positive integer that has only one distinct digit in its decimal expansion, i.e., a number of the form $$a(10^m-1)/9$$ a ( 10 m - 1 ) / 9 , for some $$m\ge 1$$ m ≥ 1 and $$1 \le a \le 9$$ 1 ≤ a ≤ 9 . Let $$\left( P_n\right) _{n\ge 0}$$ P n n ≥ 0 and $$\left( E_n\right) _{n\ge 0}$$ E n n ≥ 0 be the sequence of Padovan and Perrin numbers, respectively. This paper deals with repdigits that can be written as the products of consecutive Padovan or/and Perrin numbers.
