We establish asymptotic estimates of Mathieu-type series defined by sequences with power-logarithmic or factorial behavior. By taking the Mellin transform, the problem is mapped to the singular behavior of certain Dirichlet series, which is…

For $n \in \mathbb{N}$ let $\Pi[n]$ denote the set of partitions of $n$, i.e., the set of positive integer tuples $(x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_k)$ such that $x_1 \geq x_2 \geq \cdots \geq x_k$ and $x_1 + x_2 + \cdots + x_k = n$. Fixing…

It is known that there are infinitely-many prime numbers which take the form of a polynomial of degree one with integer coefficients, this is Dirichlet's theorem. We use an elementary sieving argument together with bounds on the prime…

We discuss $Q(n)$, the number of ways a given integer $n$ may be written as a sum of distinct primes, and study its asymptotic form $Q_{as}(n)$ valid in the limit $n\to\infty$. We obtain $Q_{as}(n)$ by Laplace inverting the fermionic…

The Dickman function F(alpha) gives the asymptotic probability that a large integer N has no prime divisor exceeding N^alpha. It is given by a finite sum of generalized polylogarithms defined by the exquisite recursion L_k(alpha)=-…

We provide an asymptotic expansion for the mean-value of the logarithm of the middle prime factor of an integer, defined according to multiplicity or not, thus generalising a recent study of McNew, Pollack, and Singha Roy. This yields an…

An integer $n\geq 1$ is a $v$-palindrome if it is not a multiple of $10$, nor a decimal palindrome, and such that the sum of the prime factors and corresponding exponents larger than $1$ in the prime factorization of $n$ is equal to that of…

Let p be an odd prime. Let F_p^* be the no-null part of the finite field of p elements. Let K=\Q(zeta) be a p-cyclotomic field and O_K be its ring of integers. Let pi be the prime ideal of K lying over p. Let sigma : zeta --> zeta^v be the…

We have developed a framework to convert an arbitrary integer factorization problem to an executable Ising model by first writing it as an optimization function and then transforming the k-bit coupling ($k\geq 3$) terms to quadratic terms…

Currently there is no known efficient formula for primes. Besides that, prime numbers have great importance in e.g., information technology such as public-key cryptography, and their position and possible or impossible functional generation…

Let $\nu_y(n)$ denote the number of distinct prime factors of $n$ that are $<y$. For $k$ a positive integer, and for $k+2\leq y\leq x$, let $S_{-k}(x,y)$ denote the sum \begin{eqnarray*} S_{-k}(x,y):=\sum_{n\leq x}(-k)^{\nu_y(n)}.…

We consider $\Phi(x)=x^{-\frac{1}{4}}\left[1-2\sqrt{x}\Sigma e^{-p^2\pi x}\ln p\right]$ on $x>0$, where the sum is over all primes $p$. If $\Phi$ is bounded on $x>0$, then the Riemann hypothesis is true or there are infinitely many zeros…

We study statistical properties of the random variables $X_{\sigma}(\pi)$, the number of occurrences of the pattern $\sigma$ in the permutation $\pi$. We present two contrasting approaches to this problem: traditional probability theory and…

We present and analyze an algorithm to enumerate all integers $n\le x$ that can be written as the sum of consecutive $k$th powers of primes, for $k>1$. We show that the number of such integers $n$ is asymptotically bounded by a constant…

Let $G_n= \prod_{k=0}^n \binom{n}{k},$ the product of the elements of the $n$-th row of Pascal's triangle. This paper studies the partial factorizations of $G_n$ given by the product $G(n,x)$ of all prime factors $p$ of $G_n$ having $p \le…

Let $k\ge2$ be an integer. A natural number $n$ is called $k$-perfect if $\sigma(n)=kn.$ For any integer $r\ge1$ we prove that the number of odd $k$-perfect numbers with at most $r$ distinct prime factors is bounded by $k4^{r^3}$.

Let $ \lfloor {x} \rfloor $ denote the greatest integer less than or equal to a real number $x$. Given real numbers $0<\alpha_1 < \alpha_2 < \cdots< \alpha_k < 1$ satisfying a certain condition, we show that there are infinitely many…

Motivated by a question of V. Bergelson and F. K. Richter (2017), we obtain asymptotic formulas for the number of relatively prime tuples composed of positive integers $n\le N$ and integer parts of polynomials evaluated at $n$. The error…

We find asymptotics for $S_{K,c}(x)$, the number of positive integers below $x$ whose number of prime factors is $c \; \mathrm{mod}\; K$. We study this question in the context of Beurling integers.

The integers $n=\prod_{i=1}^r p_i^{a_i}$ and $m=\prod_{i=1}^r p_i^{b_i}$ having the same prime factors are called exponentially coprime if $(a_i,b_i)=1$ for every $1\le i\le r$. We estimate the number of pairs of exponentially coprime…
