Logarithmic Number Systems (LNS) hold considerable promise in helping reduce the number of bits needed to represent a high dynamic range of real-numbers with finite precision, and also efficiently support multiplication and division.…
An efficient procedure for the computation of $Li_{s}(z)$ where $s<0$ is here presented. We started with Polylogarithm $Li_{s}(z)$ where $s<0$. The summation of $n^{s}z^{n}$ is evaluated using a new method. An assumption is made that the…
We prove a prime number theorem first for the classical Rankin-Selberg L-function $L(s,\pi\times\pi')$ over any Galois extension with $\pi$ and $\pi'$ unitary automorphic cuspidal representations of $GL_n$ and $GL_m$ respectively with at…
The function $\epsilon(x)=\mbox{li}(x)-\pi(x)$ is known to be positive up to the (very large) Skewes' number. Besides, according to Robin's work, the functions $\epsilon_{\theta}(x)=\mbox{li}[\theta(x)]-\pi(x)$ and…
Computing the probability of a formula given the probabilities or weights associated with other formulas is a natural extension of logical inference to the probabilistic setting. Surprisingly, this problem has received little attention in…
In the following article we consider approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) for certain classes of time series models. In particular, we focus upon scenarios where the likelihoods of the observations and parameter are intractable, by which…
Natural numbers can be divided in two non-overlapping infinite sets, primes and composites, with composites factorizing into primes. Despite their apparent simplicity, the elucidation of the architecture of natural numbers with primes as…
A classical problem in analytic number theory is to study the distribution of $\alpha p$ modulo 1, where $\alpha$ is irrational and $p$ runs over the set of primes. We consider the subsequence generated by the primes $p$ such that $p+2$ is…
Let $a_0\in\{0,\dots,9\}$. We show there are infinitely many prime numbers which do not have the digit $a_0$ in their decimal expansion. The proof is an application of the Hardy-Littlewood circle method to a binary problem, and rests on…
Let \(u\neq \pm 1,v^2\) be a fixed integer, let \(p\geq 2\) be a prime, and let $\text{ord}_p(u) \mid p-1$ be the multiplicative order of $u \text{ mod } p$. Define a prime counting function by $\pi(u,x)=\# \{ p\leq x:\text{ord}_p(u)=p-1…
Our primary concern is the computational complexity of algorithms that find all Carmichael numbers less than some specified bound $B$. We have three related results. First, we show CARMICHAELS is in $\textbf{P}$, where only the run-time is…
We consider the algorithm for verified integration of piecewise analytic functions given by Petras. The analysis of the algorithm contained in Patras' paper is limited to a narrow class of functions and gives upper bounds only. We present…
We prove sharp Landau- and Schottky-type theorems for analytic functions which omit the $n$-th roots of unity. The proofs are based on a sharp lower bound for the Poincar\'e metric of the complex plane punctured at the roots of unity.
In a recent paper (Cucker, Krick, Malajovich and Wschebor, A Numerical Algorithm for Zero Counting. I: Complexity and accuracy, J. Compl.,24:582-605, 2008) we analyzed a numerical algorithm for computing the number of real zeros of a…
This paper presents a distinctive prime detection approach. This method use GM-(n+1) sequences to effectively eliminate complex numbers. The sequences, which consist of odd a number of (n+1), exclude all components except for the initial…
In this article we provide new explicit Chebyshev's bounds for the prime counting function $\psi(x)$. The proof relies on two new arguments: smoothing the prime counting function which allows to generalize the previous approaches, and a new…
The idea of generating prime numbers through sequence of sets of co-primes was the starting point of this paper that ends up by proving two conjectures, the existence of infinitely many twin primes and the Goldbach conjecture. The main idea…
A hypothesis is put forward regarding the function $\pi_2(x)$ which describes the distribution of twin primes in the set of natural numbers. The function $\pi_2(x)$ is tested by evaluation and an empirical $\pi_2^{\ast}(x)$ is arrived at,…
We establish rigorous error bounds for prime counting using a truncated Gaussian (TG) kernel in the explicit formula framework. Our main theorem proves that the approximation error remains globally below 1/2 for all sufficiently large…
Let $k \geq 3$ and let $L_i(n) = A_in + B_i$ be some linear forms such that $A_i$ and $B_i$ are integers. Define ${\mathcal{P}(n) = \prod_{i=1}^k L_i(n)}$. For each $k$ it is known that $\Omega (\mathcal{P} (n) ) \leq \rho_k$ infinitely…
