The Piatetski-Shapiro sequences are of the form $\mathcal{N}_{c} := (\lfloor n^{c} \rfloor)_{n=1}^\infty$, where $\lfloor \cdot \rfloor$ is the integer part. It is expected that there are infinitely many primes in a Piatetski-Shapiro…

The Piatetski-Shapiro sequences are of the form ${\mathcal{N}}^{(c)} := (\lfloor n^c \rfloor)_{n=1}^\infty$ with $c > 1, c \not\in \mathbb{N}$. In this paper, we study the distribution of pairs $(p, p^{\#})$ of consecutive primes such that…

Let $[\, \cdot\,]$ be the floor function. In this paper we show that when $1<c<\frac{3849}{3334}$, then there exist infinitely many prime numbers of the form $[n^c]$, where $n$ is square-free.

We prove that there exist infinitely many (-1,1)-Carmichael numbers, that is, square-free, composite integers n such that p+1 divides n-1 for each prime p dividing n.

Under the assumption of Heath-Brown's conjecture on the first prime in an arithmetic progression, we prove that there are infinitely many Carmichael numbers $n$ such that the number of prime factors of $n$ is prime.

Using the sieve, we show that there are infinitely many Carmichael numbers whose prime factors all have the form $p = 1 + a^2 + b^2$ with $a,b \in{\mathbb Z}$.

We study the distribution of squares in a Piatetski-Shapiro sequence $\left(\lfloor n^c\rfloor\right)_{n\in\mathbb N}$ with $c>1$ and $c\not\in\mathbb N$. We also study more general equations $\lfloor{n^c}\rfloor = sm^2$, $n,m\in \mathbb…

The purpose of this paper is to study subsequences of synchronizing $k$-automatic sequences $a(n)$ along Piatetski-Shapiro sequences $\lfloor n^c \rfloor$ with non-integer $c>1$. In particular, we show that $a(\lfloor n^c \rfloor)$…

We study Piatetski-Shapiro sequences $(\lfloor n^c\rfloor)_n$ modulo m, for non-integer $c >1$ and positive $m$, and we are particularly interested in subword occurrences in those sequences. We prove that each block $\in\{0,1\}^k$ of length…
