We prove that the set of normalized differences between primes, defined as $S = \{(p-q)/(p+q) : p > q \text{ are primes}\}$, is dense in the open unit interval $(0,1)$. Our proof provides an explicit construction algorithm with quantitative…

Let $P$ and $T$ be disjoint sets of prime numbers with $T$ finite. A simple formula is given for the natural density of the set of square-free numbers which are divisible by all of the primes in $T$ and by none of the primes in $P$. If $P$…

Probability density estimation is a core problem of statistics and signal processing. Moment methods are an important means of density estimation, but they are generally strongly dependent on the choice of feasible functions, which severely…

We prove that suitable asymptotic formulae in short intervals hold for the problems of representing an integer as a sum of a prime and a square, or a prime square. Such results are obtained both assuming the Riemann Hypothesis and in the…

One of the questions of distribution of prime numbers is considered in the article. It is shown what error is obtained from the assumption that the asymptotic density of a sequence of primes is a probability. Various forms of an analogue of…

It is well known that the distribution of the prime numbers plays a central role in number theory. It has been known, since Riemann's memoir in 1860, that the distribution of prime numbers can be described by the zero-free region of the…

For a nontrivial measurable set on the real line, there are always exceptional points, where the lower and upper densities of the set are neither zero nor one. We quantify this statement, following work by V. Kolyada, and obtain the…

The distribution of prime numbers is here considered. We show a formula for $li^{-1}$ and we study the $\pi(x)$ function and Riemann's hypothesis.

The Riemann hypothesis, conjectured by Bernhard Riemann in 1859, claims that the non-trivial zeros of $\zeta(s)$ lie on the line $\Re(s) =1/2$. The density hypothesis is a conjectured estimate $N(\lambda, T) =O\bigl(T\sp{2(1-\lambda)…

In this paper we introduce new densities on the set of primes of a number field. If $K/K_0$ is a Galois extension of number fields, we associate to any element $x \in {\rm Gal}_{K/K_0}$ a density $\delta_{K/K_0,x}$ on primes of $K$. In…
