We introduce a method for showing that there exist prime numbers which are very close together. The method depends on the level of distribution of primes in arithmetic progressions. Assuming the Elliott-Halberstam conjecture, we prove that…

The Ulam distance of two permutations on $[n]$ is $n$ minus the length of their longest common subsequence. In this paper, we show that for every $\varepsilon>0$, there exists some $\alpha>0$, and an infinite set $\Gamma\subseteq…

In this article, a relation between a gap $d_{k}$ and divisors of composite numbers between $p_{k}$ and $p_{k+1}$ is established.

Let p>3 be a prime number and let r be an integer with 1<r<p-1. For each r, let moreover G_r denote the unique quotient of the maximal class pro-p group of size p^{r+1}. We show that the mod-p cohomology ring of G_r has depth one and that,…

In this note we give a construction of a smooth Riemannian metric on R^n which is standard Euclidean outside a compact set K and such that it has N = n(n + 1)=2 invisible directions, meaning that all geodesics lines passing through the set…

Among three natural numbers there is always one which is larger than or equal to the Nim sum of the remaining two numbers. This amazing fact has many applications.

The classic Lusternik--Schnirelmann theorem states that there are three distinct simple periodic geodesics on any Riemannian 2-sphere $M$. It has been proven by Y. Liokumovich, A. Nabutovsky and R. Rotman that the shortest three such curves…

In one of their seminal articles on allowable sequences, Goodman and Pollack gave combinatorial generalizations for three problems in discrete geometry, one of which being the Dirac conjecture. According to this conjecture, any set of $n$…

We show how the Riemannian distance on $\mathbb{S}^n_{++}$, the cone of $n\times n$ real symmetric or complex Hermitian positive definite matrices, may be used to naturally define a distance between two such matrices of different…

The P\'osa-Seymour conjecture asserts that every graph on $n$ vertices with minimum degree at least $(1 - 1/(r+1))n$ contains the $r^{th}$ power of a Hamilton cycle. Koml\'os, S\'ark\"ozy and Szemer\'edi famously proved the conjecture for…

The three-body general problem is formulated as a problem of geodesic trajectories flows on the Riemannian manifold. It is proved that a curved space with local coordinate system allows to detect new hidden symmetries of the internal motion…

A 1930s conjecture of Hopf states that an even-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold with positive sectional curvature has positive Euler characteristic. We prove this conjecture under the additional assumption that the isometry group has…

In this paper we state and prove the analogous of the principal ideal theorem of algebraic number theory for the case of 3-manifolds from the point of view of arithmetic topology.

In this paper, through the combination of Tietze extension theorem and Baer criteria, we build a new mathematical structure which is similar to a triangular pyramid, and then we prove that the topological space which we call it Tb appeared…

A variable line through the centroid G of a triangle divides the triangle into two parts each of whose lengths as a fraction of the perimeter fills a closed interval [m,1-m], with m between 0 and 1/2. We show that the range of m taken over…

We introduce the chain geometry $\Sigma(K,R)$ over a ring $R$ with a distinguished subfield $K$, thus extending the usual concept where $R$ has to be an algebra over $K$. A chain is uniquely determined by three of its points, if, and only…

For any positive integer $k$, we show that infinitely often, perfect $k$-th powers appear inside very long gaps between consecutive prime numbers, that is, gaps of size $$ c_k \frac{\log p \log_2 p \log_4 p}{(\log_3 p)^2}, $$ where $p$ is…

A Riemannian manifold is a called a good rational expander in dimension $i$ if every $i$-cycle bounds a rational $i+1$-chain of comparatively small volume. We construct 3-manifolds which are good expanders in all dimensions. On the other…

Any $n$-tuple of points in the plane can be moved to any other $n$-tuple by a continuous motion with at most $\binom{n}{3}$ intermediate changes of the order type. Even for tuples with the same order type, the cubic bound is sharp: there…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we show that infinitely often consecutive non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta-function differ by at most 0.5155 times the average spacing and infinitely often they differ by at least 2.69 times the average…
