In this paper, we investigate the invariant interval, periodic character, semicycle and global attractivity of all positive solutions of the equation $Y_{n+1}\;=\;\frac{p+qy_{n-k}}{1+y_n+ry_{n-k}}$, n = 0, 1, ..., where the parameters p, q, r and the initial conditions $y_{-k}$, ..., $y_{-1}$, $y_0$ are positive real numbers, k $\in$ {1, 2, 3, ...}. It is worth to mention that our results solve the open problem proposed by Kulenvic and Ladas in their monograph [Dynamics of Second Order Rational Difference Equations: with Open Problems and Conjectures, Chapman & Hall/CRC, Boca Raton, 2002]

In this paper, we investigate the global behavior of the solutions of the difference equation $x_{n+1}=\frac{A+Bx_{n-2k-1}}{C+D\prod_{i=l}^{k}x_{n-2i}^{m_i}}$, n=0, 1, ..., with non-negative initial conditions, the parameters A, B are non-negative real numbers, C, D are positive real numbers, k, l are fixed non-negative integers such that l ≤ k, and m_i, i=l, k are positive integers.

Let D be an integral domain, S be a torsion-free grading monoid such that the quotient group of S is of type (0, 0, 0, ${\ldots}$), and D[S] be the semigroup ring of S over D. We show that D[S] is an H-domain if and only if D is an H-domain and each maximal t-ideal of S is a $v$-ideal. We also show that if $\mathbb{R}$ is the eld of real numbers and if ${\Gamma}$ is the additive group of rational numbers, then $\mathbb{R}[{\Gamma}]$ is not an H-domain.

Let $k=\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ be a rational function field over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, where q is a power of an odd prime number, and $\mathbb{A}=\mathbb{F}_q[T]$. Let ${\gamma}$ be a generator of $\mathbb{F}^*_q$. Let $\mathcal{H}_n$ be the subset of $\mathbb{A}$ consisting of monic square-free polynomials of degree n. In this paper we obtain an asymptotic formula for the mean value of $L(1,{\chi}_{\gamma}{\small{D}})$ and calculate the average value of the ideal class number $h_{\gamma}\small{D}$ when the average is taken over $D{\in}\mathcal{H}_{2g+2}$.

We study the theoretical background on the relationship between the equality property and operations treated in different sub-areas in secondary school mathematics curriculum respectively studied. Furthermore, we discuss in detail the equality property in rational numbers field $\mathbb{Q}$ and the real numbers field $\mathbb{R}$. Through this study, professional knowledges of school teachers are enhanced so that these aforementioned knowledges are connected smoothly to teaching activities in classrooms.

We find all P-resolutions of quotient surface singularities (especially, tetrahedral, octahedral, and icosahedral singularities) together with their dual graphs, which reproduces (a corrected version of) Jan Steven's list [Manuscripta Math. 1993] of the numbers of P-resolutions of each singularities. We then compute the dimensions and Milnor numbers of the corresponding irreducible components of the reduced base spaces of versal deformations of each singularities. Furthermore we realize Milnor fibers as complements of certain divisors (depending only on the singularities) in rational surfaces via the semi-stable minimal model program for 3-folds. Then we compare Milnor fibers with minimal symplectic fillings, where the latter are classified by Bhupal and Ono [Nagoya Math. J. 2012]. As an application, we show that there are 6 pairs of entries in the list of Bhupal and Ono [Nagoya Math. J. 2012] such that two entries in each pairs represent diffeomorphic minimal symplectic fillings.

Let f be an integral quadratic form in k variables, F the Gram matrix corresponding to a ℤ-basis of ℤ^k. For r ∈ F^-1ℤ^k, a rational number n with f(r) ≡ n mod ℤ and a positive integer c, set N_f(n, r; c) := #{x ∈ ℤ^k/cℤ^k : f(x + r) ≡ n mod c}. Siegel showed that for each prime p, there is a number w depending on r and n such that N_f(n, r; p^ν+1) = p^k-1N_f(n, r; p^ν) holds for every integer ν > w and gave a rough estimation on the upper bound for such w. In this short note, we give a more explicit estimation on this bound than Siegel's.

Let T be Gauss transformation on the unit interval defined by T (x) = ${\frac{1}{x}}$ where {x} is the fractional part of x. Gauss transformation is closely related to the continued fraction expansions of real numbers. We show that almost every x is mod M normal number of Gauss transformation with respect to intervals whose endpoints are rational or quadratic irrational. Its connection to Central Limit Theorem is also shown.

In this paper we give asymptotic formulas for the number of ${\ell}$-cyclic extensions of the rational function field $k=\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ with prescribe ${\ell}$-class numbers inside some cyclotomic function fields, and density results for ${\ell}$-cyclic extensions of k with certain properties on the ideal class groups.
