- Relationship between the last columns of V1 and V2 in the Smith form decomposition of an integer matrixby sihao tao on April 26, 2025 at 3:57 am
Let $A$ be an invertible matrix with integer coefficients. Suppose we have two decompositions of $A$ into its Smith form $S$: $U_1 A V_1=U_2 A V_2=S=\text{diag}\{1,\ldots,1,m\}$ where $S$ is the Smith form of $A$, $m>1$, and $U_1,U_2,V_1,V_2$ are unimodular matrices(i.e., matrices with integer coefficients and determinant $\pm1$. I have observed that for any $V_1$ and $V_2$ satisfying the above equation, their last columns, denoted as $a$ and $b$ respectively, satisfy the congruence: $k a\equiv b\pmod{m}$ where $k$ is an integer coprime to $m$. How can this be proven? Note: Please provide a detailed proof or a reference to a relevant theorem or paper that can help me understand this relationship.Thank you!
- An elementary problem about sum of digits function.by Tung N. Dinh on April 26, 2025 at 3:34 am
In the book "Problems from the book" - Titu Andreescu, there is a problem: However, I think this is not true. Since there is infinitely many pairs of positive integers $(t,q)$ such that $9t=10^{q+1}+17$. Consider the number $$m=99\dots900\dots02$$ with $t$ digits $9$'s and $q$ digits $0$'s. We have $$m+s(m)=m+9t+2=m+10^{q+1}+17+2=100\dots021=10^n+21$$ where $n=t+q+1$. This means there are infinitely many $n$ such that $10^n+21$ is special. But $21-1=20$ is not a special number. Is my argument correct?
- Embedding with the formation of anisotropic norms into the $L^{\infty}$ space in $\mathbb{R}_+^2$.by Guyang Huan on April 26, 2025 at 3:13 am
Define a space $X_0 = L_x^2(\mathbb{R};H_y^2(\mathbb{R}_+))\cap H_x^{\frac{2}{3}}(\mathbb{R};L_y^2(\mathbb{R_+}))$. Suppose $f\in X_0$ and $\Vert y\partial_xf\Vert_{L_{x,y}^2}<\infty$, I want to prove $f\in L_{x,y}^{\infty}$. I try to use Fourier method to obtain $\Vert\mathcal{F}[f](\xi,\eta)\Vert_{L_{\xi,\eta}^1}<\infty$ to prove it by extension in variable $y$, but failed (It is critical for $f\in X_0$). For $y\ge1$, this method is feasible $\Vert y\partial_xf\Vert_{L_{x,y}^2}<\infty$. And I have no idea to prove it for all $y\ge0$ (Indeed, we can further assume that $\Vert\ |\partial_x|^{\frac{1}{6}}\partial_yf\big|_{y=0}\ \Vert_{L_x^2(\mathbb{R})}<\infty$, maybe the fourier method is insufficiently refined).
- Transforming Gradient Operators to Relative Coordinatesby Sam N on April 26, 2025 at 3:01 am
I'm working with operators that act on different subsystems. I'm trying to transform the operator $|\vec r_1 - \vec r_2| \times (\nabla_1 - \nabla_2)$ into the relative coordinates where, $$\vec r = (\vec r_1 - \vec r_2)/\sqrt{2}$$ $$\vec R = (\vec r_1 + \vec r_2)/\sqrt{2}$$ Naively using the chain rule on the gradient operators gives, $$\nabla_1 \equiv \frac{\partial}{\partial \vec r_1} = \frac{\partial \vec r}{\partial \vec r_1}\frac{\partial}{\partial \vec r} + \frac{\partial \vec R}{\partial \vec r_1}\frac{\partial}{\partial \vec R} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(\frac{\partial}{\partial \vec r} + \frac{\partial}{\partial \vec R}) \equiv \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(\nabla_r + \nabla_R)$$ $$\nabla_2 \equiv \frac{\partial}{\partial \vec r_2} = \frac{\partial \vec r}{\partial \vec r_2}\frac{\partial}{\partial \vec r} + \frac{\partial \vec R}{\partial \vec r_2}\frac{\partial}{\partial \vec R} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(-\frac{\partial}{\partial \vec r} + \frac{\partial}{\partial \vec R}) \equiv \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(-\nabla_r + \nabla_R)$$ This gives the final result of $|\vec r_1 - \vec r_2| \times (\nabla_1 - \nabla_2) = r \times \nabla_r$. Am I missing something or is it this straightforward?
- Example of prime ramificationby Darren on April 26, 2025 at 2:56 am
I got stuck when I learnt the following example: Let $K=\mathbb{Q}[\alpha]$, where $\alpha$ is a root of $x^3+x+1$. By $\sum\limits_ie_if_i=[K:\mathbb{Q}]$, where $e_i$ are the ramification index and $f_i$ are the residue class dgree, there are only finite number of ways that a prime $(p)$ in $\mathbb{Q}$ factors in $\mathcal{O}_K$. I have either found an example nor disproved a possible way in all situation but the following. I don't konw whether there is a prime $(p)$ such that $p\mathcal{O}_K=\mathfrak{p}_1\mathfrak{p}_2\mathfrak{p}_3$, which is to ask are there a prime $p$ and distinct numbers $m_i(1\le i\le3)$ making $x^3+x+1\equiv \prod\limits_{i=1}^3(x-m_i)$(mod $p\mathbb{Z}[x]$)? I couldn't find an example or disprove it in such situation. Thanks for any help!
