A substitution box (S-box) in a symmetric primitive is a mapping $F$ that takes $k$ binary inputs and whose image is a binary $m$-tuple for some positive integers $k$ and $m$, which is usually the only nonlinear element of the most modern…

Let $p$ be an odd prime, Jianqiang Zhao has established a curious congruence, which is $$ \sum_{i+j+k=p \atop i,j,k > 0} \frac{1}{ijk} \equiv -2B_{p-3}\pmod p , $$ where $B_{n}$ denotes the $n$-th Bernoulli number. In this paper, we will…

Let $q$ be a prime. We classify the odd primes $p\neq q$ such that the equation $x^2\equiv q\pmod{p}$ has a solution, concretely, we find a subgroup $\mathbb{L}_{4q}$ of the multiplicative group $\mathbb{U}_{4q}$ of integers relatively…

We study arithmetic functions $\Phi(x;d,a)$, called prime running functions, whose value at $x$ sums the gaps between primes $p_k \equiv a\ (\text{mod}\ d)$ below $x$ and the next following prime $p_{k+1}$, up to $x$. (The following prime…

We prove lower bounds for the number of primes $p \leq N + b$ such that $p-b$ is divisible by $2^{k(N)}$ and has at most $k$ odd prime factors ($k \geq 2$), assuming $2^{k(N)} \leq N^\theta$ for some $\theta > 0$ depending on $k$. The proof…

This article presents several findings regarding second and third-order differential subordination of the form: $$ p(z)+\gamma_1 zp'(z)+\gamma_2 z^2p''(z)\prec h(z)\implies p(z)\prec e^z $$ and $$ p(z)+\gamma_1 zp'(z)+\gamma_2…
