This work proposes a proof of the simplest cubic primes counting problem. It shows that the subset of primes {p = n^3 + 2 is prime : n => 1} is an infinite subset of primes. Further, the expected order of magnitude of the cubic primes…

Let $\alpha > 0$ be any fixed non-integer, $I$ be any subinterval of $[0; 1)$. In the paper, we prove an analogue of Bombieri-Vinogradov theorem for the set of primes $p$ satisfying the condition $\{ p^{\alpha} \} \in I$. This strengthens…

We consider the distance to the nearest integer of f(p), where f is a quadratic polynomial with irrational leading coefficient. This distance is very small as a function of p, for infinitely many primes p. We give a 14% improvement in the…

Let $f(x,y)=ax^2+bxy+cy^2$ be a binary quadratic form with integer coefficients. For a prime $p$ not dividing the discriminant of $f$, we say $f$ is completely $p$-primitive if for any non-zero integer $N$, the diophantine equation…

In 2002, M.Ram Murty showed that if p is a prime with k-adic expansion :$p = \sum_{i = 0}^n a_i k^i$ , then the polynomial $f(x) = \sum_{i = 0}^n a_ix^i$ is irreducible in $\mathbb{Z}[x]$.When $k = 10$ , it's a result of A.Cohn. I think…

A unitary divisor $c$ of a positive integer $n$ is a positive divisor of $n$ that is relatively prime to $\displaystyle{\frac{n}{c}}$. For any integer $k$, the function $\sigma_k^*$ is a multiplicative arithmetic function defined so that…

Let $\mathbb{K}$ be a number field of degree $n$ over $\mathbb{Q}$. Let $\widehat{\mathbb{A}}$ be the set of integers of $\mathbb{K}$ which are primitive over $\mathbb{Q}$ and $I(\mathbb{K})$ be its index. Gunji and McQuillan defined the…

Polynomials whose coefficients, roots, and critical points lie in the ring of rational integers are called nice polynomials. In this paper, we present a general method for investigating such polynomials. We extend our results from the ring…

Using polynomial evaluation, we give some useful criteria to answer questions about divisibility of polynomials. This allows us to develop interesting results concerning the prime elements in the domain of coefficients. In particular, it is…

Let $S$ be a finite set of primes. The $S$-part $[m]_S$ of a non-zero integer $m$ is the largest positive divisor of $m$ that is composed of primes from $S$. In 2013, Gross and Vincent proved that if $f(X)$ is a polynomial with integer…

The Schinzel Hypothesis is a conjecture about irreducible polynomials in one variable over the integers: under some standard condition, they should assume infinitely many prime values at integers. We consider a relative version: if the…

Let $\Cal U$ be an open neighborhood of the origin in $\Bbb C^{n+1}$ and let $f:(\Cal U, \bold 0)\to(\Bbb C, 0)$ be complex analytic. Let $z_0$ be a generic linear form on $\Bbb C^{n+1}$. If the relative polar curve $\Gamma^1_{f, z_0}$ at…

Infinite exponential sequences of distinct prime numbers of the form $\lfloor a c^{n^d}+b\rfloor$, $n\geq 0$, are proved to exist for well chosen real constants $a>0$, $b$, $c>1$, $d>1$, assuming Cramer's conjecture on prime gaps. There is…

For a positive integer $n$, if $\sigma(n)$ denotes the sum of the positive divisors of $n$, then $n$ is called a deficient perfect number if $\sigma(n)=2n-d$ for some positive divisor $d$ of $n$. In this paper, we prove some results about…

It is well-known that for any non-constant polynomial $P$ with integer coefficients the sequence $(P(n))_{ n\in \mathbb N}$ has the property that there are infinitely many prime numbers dividing at least one term of this sequence.…

Let $\mathcal{A}'$ be the set of integers missing any three fixed digits from their decimal expansion. We produce primes in a thin sequence by proving an asymptotic formula for counting primes of the form $p = m^2 + \ell^2$, with $\ell \in…

A nonnegative matrix A is said to be primitive if there exists a positive integer m such that entries in A^m are positive and smallest such m is called the exponent of A: Primitive matrices are useful in the study of finite Markov chains…

Most integers are composite and most univariate polynomials over a finite field are reducible. The Prime Number Theorem and a classical result of Gau{\ss} count the remaining ones, approximately and exactly. For polynomials in two or more…
