Abstract
:1. Introduction
2. Results and Basic Concepts
3. The Main Result
- (1)
- for somesuch that a is even.
- (2)
- for somesuch that a is odd and
- (3)
- with, a is even, b is odd,and
- (1)
- If, then
- (2)
- Ifwhere a is even and b is odd, then
- (1)
- It is a trivial consequence from Lemma 2.
- (2)
- By Proposition 4, and And by Lemma 1,
- (1)
- In the first place, we focus on the calculation of all the elements of the set which have the form being By 1) from Proposition 5, Thus, if , then As then by applying Lemma 1, we deduce the following:
- If h is odd, then contains a unique element which has the shape
- If h is even and , then does not contain any element with the form
- If h is even and , then contains a unique element whit the shape
- (2)
- In the second place, let us see how many elements there are in which have the form , where a is even, b is odd, andBy 2) from Proposition 5, we know that and, in consequence we have . Therefore, belongs to if and only if , , , a is even, b is odd and We distinguish the following cases:
- As , then
- As and , then
- As and , then
As a consequence of these three previous cases, we can say that the number of elements of which have the form coincides with the cardinality of the setNote thatNow, we are going to study these two cases:- If , then where for all
- If , then
- (3)
- Finally, we are able to affirm the following:
- If then, according to previous points (1) and (2), we deduce thatSo
- If then, according again to the previous points (1) and (2), we assert that
- for all
