Let $n$ be a positive integer, $p$ be an odd prime and integers $a,b \not= 0$ with $gcd(a,b)=1$, $p \nmid ab$, and $p|(a^n \pm b^n)$, we prove the identity $$\nu_p(a^n \pm b^n)-\nu_p(n)=\nu_p(a^{p-1}-b^{p-1}).$$ An unintended interesting…

We establish improved finite field Szemeredi-Trotter and Beck type theorems. First we show that if P and L are a set of points and lines respectively in the plane F_p^2, with |P|,|L| \leq N and N<p, then there are at most C_1…

The Fermat quotient $q_p(a):=(a^{p-1}-1)/p$, for prime $p\nmid a$, and the Wilson quotient $w_p:=((p-1)!+1)/p$ are integers. If $p\mid w_p,$ then $p$ is a Wilson prime. For odd $p,$ Lerch proved that $(\sum_{a=1}^{p-1} q_p(a) - w_p)/p$ is…

Suppose that A is a subset of {1,...,N} such that the difference between any two elements of A is never one less than a prime. We show that |A| = O(N exp(-c(log N)^{1/4})) for some absolute c>0.

We establish existence, uniqueness as well as quantitative estimates for solutions to the fractional nonlinear diffusion equation, $\partial_t u +{\mathcal L}_{s,p} (u)=0$, where ${\mathcal L}_{s,p}=(-\Delta)_p^s$ is the standard fractional…

For x and y sequences of real numbers define the inner product (x,y) = x(0)y(0) + x(1)y(1)+ ... which may not be finite or even exist. We say that x and y are orthogonal iff (x,y) converges and equals 0. Define l_p to be the set of all real…

We prove that every set $A\subset\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}$ with $\mathbb{E}_x\min(1_A*1_A(x),t)\le(2+\delta)t\mathbb{E}_x 1_A(a)$ is very close to an arithmetic progression. Here $p$ stands for a large prime and $\delta,t$ are small real…

Let $\mathbb N_0$ be the set of non-negative integers, and let $P(n,l)$ denote the set of all weak compositions of $n$ with $l$ parts, i.e., $P(n,l)=\{ (x_1,x_2,\dots, x_l)\in\mathbb N_0^l\ :\ x_1+x_2+\cdots+x_l=n\}$. For any element…
