We give an equivalent form of the Twin prime conjecture relating to a symmetric property that is observed for terms present in a certain sequence of arithmetic progressions defined for a pair of co-prime integers.
Recently, Wang and Ma propose a conjecture associated with the possible generalization of Andrews-Warnaar identities. It is confirmed in this paper. As the applications of this conjecture, we prove that a family of series can be expressed…
We show how lattice paths and the reflection principle can be used to give easy proofs of unimodality results. In particular, we give a "one-line" combinatorial proof of the unimodality of the binomial coefficients. Other examples include…
In this note let us give two remarks on proof-theory of PA. First a derivability relation is introduced to bound witnesses for provable $\Sigma_{1}$-formulas in PA. Second Paris-Harrington's proof for their independence result is…
We study an extension of Montgomery's pair-correlation conjecture and its relevance in some problems on the distribution of prime numbers.
Using Bauer's expansion and properties of spherical Bessel and Legender functions, we deduce a new transform and briefly indicate its use.
Taking as model the attractor of an iterated function system consisting of phi-contractions on a complete and bounded metric space, we introduce the set-theoretic concept of family of functions having attractor. We prove that, given such a…
Denote by $\lambda(n)$ Liouville's function concerning the parity of the number of prime divisors of $n$. Using a theorem of Allouche, Mend\`es France, and Peyri\`ere and many classical results from the theory of the distribution of prime…
We investigate progressions in the set of pairs of integers $\mathbb{Z}^2$ and define a generalisation of the Jacobsthal function. For this function, we conjecture a specific upper bound and prove that this bound would be a sufficient…
Numerous novel integral and series representations for Ferrers functions of the first kind (associated Legendre functions on the cut) of arbitrary degree and order, various integral, series and differential relations connecting Ferrers…
Franel and Landau derived an arithmetic statement involving the Farey sequence that is equivalent to the Riemann hypothesis. Since there is a relationship between the Mertens function and the Riemann hypothesis, there should be a…
We prove an explicit formula for the $p$-adic valuation of the Legendre polynomials $P_n(x)$ evaluated at a prime $p$, and generalize an old conjecture of the third author. We also solve a problem proposed by Cigler in 2017.
We relate a one-parametric generating function for the squares of Legendre polynomials to an arithmetic hypergeometric series whose parametrisation by a level 7 modular function was recently given by Shaun Cooper. By using this modular…
We formulate and discuss a conjecture which would extend a classical inequality of Bernstein.
Let $p$ be an odd prime number. Using modular arguments, we give an easy testable condition which allows often to prove Fermat's Last Theorem over the quadratic field ${\bf Q}(\sqrt{5})$ for the exponent $p$. It is related to the Wendt's…
Let $\{Q_{n}(x)\}$ be a system of integral Legendre polynomials of degree exactly n,and let $\{P_{n}(x)\}$ be polar polynomials primitives of integral Legendre polynomials. We derive some identities and relations and extremal problems and…
The main purpose of the paper is to demonstrate that condition of invariance with respect to the Legendre transformations allows effectively isolate the class of integrable difference equations on the triangular lattice, which can be…
We prove the murmuration phenomenon, which is a correlation between signs of functional equations and Fourier coefficients, in the case of modular forms in the weight aspect. We in particular improve the range of visibility of murmurations…
A Mellin transform representation is derived for the associated Legendre functions of the first kind on the cut
Counterfactual definiteness must be used as at least one of the postulates or axioms that are necessary to derive Bell-type inequalities. It is considered by many to be a postulate that is not only commensurate with classical physics (as…
