The Stable Set Conjecture

A set $\mathcal S$ of positive integers is called stable if for every fixed positive integer $d$, the relation $$n\in \mathcal S \iff dn\in \mathcal S$$ holds for almost all positive integers $n$. ...

Cardinality of $\{ n_i + i^k: i \in \mathbb{N} \} \cap [1,T]$ where $\{n_i \}$ is all natural numbers in some order

Let $n_1, n_2, ...$ be a sequence of natural numbers such that $\{n_i: i \in \mathbb{N}\}$ as a set is all of natural numbers. Let $k$ be a positive integer. Is is possible to obtain a lower bound of ...

Discrepancy in non-homogeneous arithmetic progressions

I have a doubt, Roth's discrepancy theorem [1] says that there is a subset of arithmetic progressions $A \in [n]$ where any function $f:N\rightarrow \left \{ -1,1 \right \} $ implies $ \left | \...

Asymptotic for number of partitions of $n$ into $k$ squares, uniform in $n,k \to +\infty$

Let $p^{(s)}(n)$ be the number of ways of writing the positive integer $n$ as a sum of perfect $s$-powers, where the order does not matter. For example, $p^{(2)}(9) = 4$ since $$9 = 1^2 + 1^2 + 1^2 + ...

Representation numbers of numerical semigroups

I've been playing around with numerical semigroups lately. I'm pretty new to this stuff, so I apologize in advance if my notation is non-standard. Fix positive integers $x_1,\dots,x_r$ with $\gcd(x_1,\...

How many different numbers can be obtained as product of first $n$ natural numbers?

Let m and n be natural numbers, and consider the set of all possible products of m (not necessarily distinct) elements from the set $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$, that is consider the set $\{1^{a_1} \cdot 2^{...

Number of elements in the set $\{1,\cdots,n\}\cdot\{1,\cdots,n\}$

Let $A_n=\{a\cdot b : a,b \in \mathbb{N}, a,b\leq n\}$. Are there any estimates for $|A_n|$? Will it be $o(n^2)$?
