Write $T(n)$ as the sum of the reciprocals of the primes which divide $n$. Write $H(n) = \prod_{p|n}p/(p-1)$ where the product is over the prime divisors of $n$. We prove new bounds for $T(n)$ and $H(n)$ in terms of the smallest prime…

Let $r \ge 2$ be an integer and let $A$ be a finite, nonempty set of nonzero integers. We will obtain a lower bound for the number of squarefree integers $n$, up to $x$, for which the products $\prod_{p \mid n} (p+a)$ (over primes $p$) are…

Let $A$ be a nonempty finite subset of an additive abelian group $G$. Given a nonnegative integer $h$, the $h$-fold sumset $hA$ is the set of all sums of $h$ elements of $A$, and the restricted $h$-fold sumset $h^\wedge A$ is the set of all…

Let $G$ be a finite group of order $n$, and denote by $\rho(G)$ the product of element orders of $G$. The aim of this work is to provide some upper bounds for $\rho(G)$ depending only on $n$ and on its least prime divisor, when $G$ belongs…

Let $\rho(n)$ denote the maximal number of different primes that may occur in the order of a finite solvable group $G$, all elements of which have orders divisible by at most $n$ distinct primes. We show that $\rho(n)\leq 5n$ for all $n\geq…

We define $g(n)$ to be the maximal order of an element of the symmetric group on $n$ elements. Results about the prime factorization of $g(n)$ allow a reduction of the upper bound on the largest prime divisor of $g(n)$ to $1.328\sqrt{n\log…

We present lower bounds on the sum and product of the distinct prime factors of an odd perfect number, which provide a lower bound on the size of the odd perfect number as a function of the number of its distinct prime factors.

Let $P(x) \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ be a polynomial. We give an easy and new proof of the fact that the set of primes $p$ such that $p \mid P(n)$, for some $n \in \mathbb{Z}$, is infinite. We also get analog of this result for some special…

We prove an isomorphism between the finite domain from 1 up to the product of the first n primes and the new defined set of prime modular numbers. This definition provides some insights about relative prime numbers. We provide an inverse…

A natural number $n$ is called semi-prime if it is a product of two primes or a square of a prime. We denote $\mathbb{P}_2$ the set of all semi-primes. Our goal is to prove that for fixed integer number $a$ and sufficiently large $x$ the…

The divisor function $\sigma(n)$ denotes the sum of the divisors of the positive integer $n$. For a prime $p$ and $m \in \mathbb{N}$, the $p$-adic valuation of $m$ is the highest power of $p$ which divides $m$. Formulas for…

The $\Sopfr(n)$ function is defined as the sum of prime factors of $n$ each of which is taken with its multiplicity. This function is studied numerically. The analogy between $\Sopfr(n)$ and the primes distribution function is drawn and…

Given an integer $n \ge 2$, its prime factorization is expressed as $n= \prod_{i=1}^s p_i^{a_i}$. We define the function $f(n)$ as the smallest positive integer such that $f(n)!$ is divisible by $n$. The main objective of this paper is to…

We find an upper bound for the sum $\sum_{x<n\leq 2x}\textbf{1}_{\mathbb{P}}(n+h_{i_{1}})\cdots\textbf{1}_{\mathbb{P}}(n+h_{i_{m+1}})w_{n}$, where $(h_{i_{1}},...,h_{i_{m+1}})$ is any $(m+1)$-tuple of elements in the admissible set…

It is known that the sum of the reciprocal of integers, $\sum_n (1/n)$, and the sum of the reciprocal of primes, $\sum_n (1/p_n)$, both diverge. Here, we study a series made from primes that sums exactly to 1. We also show this sum is…

In this article the infinite product of bicomplex numbers is defined and the convergence and divergence of this product are discussed.

We present a variety of prime-generating constructions that are based on sums of primes. The constructions come in all shapes and sizes, varying in the number of dimensions and number of generated primes. Our best result is a construction…

Under the fundamental theorem of arithmetic, any integer $n>1$ can be uniquely written as a product of prime powers $p^a$; factoring each exponent $a$ as a product of prime powers $q^b$, and so on, one will obtain what is called the tower…

Let $x>1$ be a large number. This note shows that the largest prime factor of the quadratic product $\prod_{x\leq n\leq 2x}\left(n^2+1 \right)$ satisfies the relation $p \geq x^{3/2}$ as $x$ tends to infinity. This improves the current…

Given $k, \ell \in {\bf N}^+$, let $x_{i,j}$ be, for $1 \le i \le k$ and $0 \le j \le \ell$, some fixed integers, and define, for every $n \in {\bf N}^+$, $s_n := \sum_{i=1}^k \prod_{j=0}^\ell x_{i,j}^{n^j}$. We prove that the following are…
