This paper shows a simple construction of the continuous involutions of real intervals in terms of the continuous even functions. We also study the smooth involutions defined by symmetric equations. Finally, we review some applications, in…

This paper gives an explicit version of Selberg's 1943 mean-value estimate for the prime number theorem in intervals under the Riemann hypothesis. Two applications are given: for primes in short intervals, and Goldbach numbers (sums of two…

We say that the set of $y$-smooth numbers $\mathcal{S}(N,y)$ up to $N$ is super smooth if $y=\log^KN$ for a large fixed constant $K$. We show that the Roth's theorem on arithmetic progressions is true in super smooth numbers case. This…

This note discusses the existence of prime numbers in short intervals. An unconditional elementary argument seems to prove the existence of primes in the short intervals [x, x + y], where y >= x^(1/2)(log x)^e, e > 0, and a sufficiently…

We prove under RH the existence of a very large positive and negative values of the argument of the Riemann zeta function on a very short intervals.

Although we expect to find many smooth numbers (i.e., numbers with no large prime factors) among the values taken by a polynomial with integer coefficients, it is unclear what the asymptotic number of such smooth values should be; this is…

This paper is concerned with the relationship of $y$-smooth integers and de Bruijn's approximation $\Lambda(x,y)$. Under the Riemann hypothesis, Saias proved that the count of $y$-smooth integers up to $x$, $\Psi(x,y)$, is asymptotic to…

Proofs that a smooth morphism is flat available in the literature are long and difficult. We give a short proof of this fact.

Using a smoothing function and recent knowledge on the zeros of the Riemann zeta-function, we compute pairs of $(\Delta,x_0)$ such that for all $x \geq x_0$ there exists at least one prime in the interval $(x(1 - \Delta^{-1}), x]$.

We consider a smooth counting function of the scaled zeros of the Riemann zeta function, around height T. We show that the first few moments tend to the Gaussian moments, with the exact number depending on the statistic considered.

In this paper, we prove existence of smooth solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations that gives a positive answer to the problem proposed by Fefferman [3].

The set of short intervals between consecutive primes squared has the pleasant---but seemingly unexploited---property that each interval $s_k:=\{p_k^2, \dots,p_{k+1}^2-1\}$ is fully sieved by the $k$ first primes. Here we take advantage of…

We prove that a Riemannian submersion between smooth, compact, non-negatively curved Riemannian manifolds has to be smooth, resolving a conjecture by Berestovskii--Guijarro. We show that without any curvature assumption, the smoothness of…

We continue investigations on the average number of representations of a large positive integer as a sum of given powers of prime numbers. The average is taken over a short interval, whose admissible length depends on whether or not we…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis we prove that the interval $[N, N + H]$ contains an integer which is a sum of a prime and two squares of primes provided that $H \ge C (\log N)^{4}$, where $C > 0$ is an effective constant.

In this paper we prove the mean values of some multiplicative functions connected with the divisor function on the short interval of summation.

Let $g(n)$ be the largest positive integer $k$ such that there are distinct primes $p_i$ for $1\leq i\leq k$ so that $p_i |n+i$. This function is related to a celebrated conjecture of C.A. Grimm. We establish upper and lower bounds for…

We improve the universality theorem of the Riemann zeta-function in short intervals by establishing universality for significantly shorter intervals $[T,T+H]$. Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we prove that universality in such short…

Estimates of some integrals related to variations of smooth functions are presented.

We obtain new mean value theorems for exponential sums with very smooth numbers, which provide a power saving against the trivial bound in region where previous bounds do not apply.
