| | Let $latex \omega$ denote the first infinite cardinal - that is, the set of non-negative integers. Let $latex p_0 = 2$ be the smallest prime number, and let $latex (p_n)_{n\in\omega}$ enumerate all prime numbers in ascending order. Let $latex \mathcal{U}$ be a free ultrafilter on $latex \omega$. We consider the field $latex F = \big(\prod_{n\in\omega}\mathbb{Z}/p_n\mathbb{Z}\big)/{\mathcal...

| | I recently uploaded "On the largest sum-free subset problem in the integers," to the arXiv. Let $latex A \subset \mathbb{Z}$ be a finite subset of the integers. We say $latex A$ is sum-free if there are no solutions to $latex a + b = c,$ with $latex a,b,c \in A$. We define $latex S(A)$ to...

| | In honor of Pi Day 2023, I'd like to discuss Hilbert's 7th Problem, which in an oversimplified (and rather vague) form asks: under what circumstances can a transcendental function take algebraic values at algebraic points? The connection with $latex \pi$ is that Lindemann proved in 1882 that the transcendental function $latex f(z) = e^z$ takes...
