A classic question in analytic number theory is to find asymptotics for $\sigma_{k}(x)$ and $\pi_{k}(x)$, the number of integers $n\leq x$ with exactly $k$ prime factors, where $\pi_{k}(x)$ has the added constraint that all the factors are…

In this paper, we intend to present a new algorithm to factorize large numbers. According to the algorithm proposed here, we prove that there is a common factor between p and q. With this procedure, the time of factorization considerably…

Ordinary binary multiplication of natural numbers can be generalized in a non-trivial way to a ternary operation by considering discrete volumes of lattice hexagons. With this operation, a natural notion of `3-primality' -- primality with…

We study polytopes associated to factorisations of prime powers. These polytopes have explicit descriptions either in terms of their vertices or as intersections of closed halfspaces associated to their facets. We give formulae for their…

In this article, we obtain upper bounds on the number of irreducible factors of some classes of polynomials having integer coefficients, which in particular yield some of the well known irreducibility criteria. For devising our results, we…

Let $f(n)$ be the number of distinct exponents in the prime factorization of the natural number $n$. We prove some results about the distribution of $f(n)$. In particular, for any positive integer $k$, we obtain that $$ \#\{n \leq x : f(n)…

We show that any joint probability mass function (PMF) can be expressed as a product of parity check factors and factors of degree one with the help of some auxiliary variables, if the alphabet size is appropriate for defining a parity…

We will see that key concepts of number theory can be defined for arbitrary operations. We give a generalized distributivity for hyperoperations (usual arithmetic operations and operations going beyond exponentiation) and a generalization…

In this paper, we state a conjecture on the prime factorization of numbers of the form $n!+1$, explore its implications, and compare it with empirical evidence and established results based on the $abc$ conjecture.

We give a new sufficient condition which allows to test primality of Fermat's numbers. This characterization uses uniquely values at most equal to tested Fermat number. The robustness of this result is due to a strict use of elementary…

Factorization is the most fundamental way to determine if a number $n$ is prime or composite. Yet, this approach becomes impracticable when considering large values of $n$, a difficulty that is exploited by cryptographic protocols. We…
