For nonzero rational D, which may be taken to be a squarefree integer, let E_D be the elliptic curve Dy^2=x^3-x over Q arising in the "congruent number" problem. It is known that the L-function of E_D has sign -1, and thus odd analytic…

We bring to bear an empirical model of the distribution of twin primes and produce two distinct results. The first is that we can make a quantitative probabilistic prediction of the occurrence of gaps in the sequence of twins within the…

The prime detecting function (PDF) approach can be effective instrument in the investigation of numbers. The PDF is constructed by recurrence sequence - each successive prime adds a sieving factor in the form of PDF. With built-in prime…

We create a simple test for distinguishing between sets of primes and random numbers using just the sum-of-digits function. We find that the sum-of-the-digits of prime numbers does not have an equal probability of being odd or even. The…

A modified totient function ($\phi_2$) is seen to play a significant role in the study of the twin prime distribution. The function is defined as $\phi_2(n):=\#\{a\le n ~\vert ~\textrm{$a(a+2)$ is coprime to $n$}\}$ and is shown here to…

This 1964 paper developed as an off-shoot to the foundational query: Do we discover the natural numbers (Platonically), or do we construct them linguistically? The paper also assumes computational significance in the light of Agrawal, Kayal…

In this paper proof of the twin prime conjecture is going to be presented. Originally very difficult problem (in observational space) has been transformed into a simpler one (in generative space) that can be solved. It will be shown that…

A set grading on the split simple Lie algebra of type $D_{13}$, that cannot be realized as a group-grading, is constructed by splitting the set of positive roots into a disjoint union of pairs of orthogonal roots, following a pattern…

We classify thick irreducible 3-spherical twin buildings of rank at least 3 in which every panel contains at least 6 chambers. Together with the Main result of [11] we obtain a classification of thick irreducible 3-spherical twin buildings.

A CP-semigroup is aligned if its set of trivially maximal subordinates is totally ordered by subordination. We prove that aligned spatial E_0-semigroups are prime: they have no non-trivial tensor product decompositions up to cocycle…

In this article we present method of solving some additive problems with primes. The method may be employed to the Goldbach-Euler conjecture and the twin primes conjecture. The presented method also makes it possible to obtain some…

A $C^1$ prime indicator $\mathcal{P}\colon\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ is constructed by applying the Fej\'er identity to the sine-quotient encoder of trial division. For integers $n\ge 2$, $\mathcal P(n)=0$ holds exactly for odd primes;…

By extending a construction due to Gross and McMullen [2], we show that for any odd integer n and for any even integer d>n+2 there are infinitely many Salem numbers $\alpha$ of degree d such that $\alpha^n-1$ is a unit. A similar result is…

For certain elliptic curves $E/\mathbb{Q}$ with $E(\mathbb{Q})[2]=\mathbb{Z}/2 \mathbb{Z}$, we prove a criterion for prime twists of $E$ to have analytic rank 0 or 1, based on a mod 4 congruence of 2-adic logarithms of Heegner points. As 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…

In this paper we continue our study, begun in part I, of the exceptional set of integers, not restricted by elementary congruence conditions, which cannot be represented as sums of three or four squares of primes. We correct a serious…

Pick a sequence of uniform points on the $d$-dimensional sphere. Then, link the $n$th point to its closest one that arrives in the past. This constructs a labelled tree called the nearest neighbour tree on the $d$-dimensional sphere. These…

Let $k\ge 2$ and $\Pi(n)=\prod_{i=1}^k(a_in+b_i)$ for some integers $a_i, b_i$ ($1\le i\le k$). Suppose that $\Pi(n)$ has no fixed prime divisors. Weighted sieves have shown for infinitely many integers $n$ that $\Omega(\Pi(n))\le r_k$…

Twin prime number problem is mainly the structure of the twin prime numbers and whether there are infinitely many prime twins group. In this paper, by constructing a special cluster number set(see formula(2.3)in the paper), proves that the…

In this work, we establish a nontrivial level of distribution for densities on $\{1,\ldots, N\}$ obtained by a biased coin convolution. As a consequence of sieving theory, one then derives the expected lower bound for the weight of such…
