Lehmer conjectured that Ramanujan's tau-function never vanishes. In a related direction, a folklore conjecture asserts that infinitely many primes arise as absolute values of Ramanujan's tau-function. Recently, Xiong showed that these prime…

This paper is devoted to the theory of prime numbers. In this paper we first introduce the notion of a matrix of prime numbers. Then, in order to investigate the density of prime numbers in separate rows of the matrix under consideration,…

We show that there exist infinite sets $A = \{a_1,a_2,\dots\}$ and $B = \{b_1,b_2,\dots\}$ of natural numbers such that $a_i+b_j$ is prime whenever $1 \leq i < j$.

A strictly increasing sequence $\mathscr{A}$ of positive integers is said to be primitive if no term of $\mathscr{A}$ divides any other. Erd\H{o}s showed that the series $\sum_{a \in \mathscr{A}} \frac{1}{a \log a}$, where $\mathscr{A}$ is…

Let $f\in\mathbb{Z}[X]$ be quadratic or cubic polynomial. We prove that there exists an integer $G_f\geq 2$ such that for every integer $k\geq G_f$ one can find infinitely many integers $n\geq 0$ with the property that none of…

The appearance of primes in a family of linear recurrence sequences labelled by a positive integer $n$ is considered. The terms of each sequence correspond to a particular class of Lehmer numbers, or (viewing them as polynomials in $n$)…

In this paper, the estimation formula of the number of primes in a given interval is obtained by using the prime distribution property. For any prime pairs $p>5$ and $ q>5 $, construct a disjoint infinite set sequence $A_1, A_2, \ldots,…

A graph $G$ is defined encapsulating the number theoretic notion of the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic. We then provide a graph theoretic approach to the fundamental results on the coprimality of two natural numbers, through the use of…

This paper provides a survey of results on the greatest prime factor, the number of distinct prime factors, the greatest squarefree factor and the greatest m-th powerfree part of a block of consecutive integers, both without any assumption…

The study of finding blocks of primes in certain arithmetic sequences is one of the classical problems in number theory. It is also very interesting to study blocks of consecutive elements in such sequences that are pairwise coprime. In…

We study values of k for which the interval (kn,(k+1)n) contains a prime for every n>1. We prove that the list of such integers k includes k=1,2,3,5,9,14, and no others, at least for k<=50,000,000. For every known k of this list, we give a…

A classical conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and S\'os asks to determine the Tur\'an number of a tree. We consider variants of this problem in the settings of hypergraphs and multi-hypergraphs. In particular, for all $k$ and $r$, with $r \ge k…

Let $p_{r+1}-1>n \geq p_r-1$, based on a sequence $\{1,2,3\cdots\ M_r(M_r=p_1p_2\cdots p_r)\}$, we compare the density of coprime numbers and establish a correlation between the proportions of coprime numbers in the ranges from 1 to…

We study the gaps between consecutive prime numbers directly through Eratosthenes sieve. Using elementary methods, we identify a recursive relation for these gaps and for specific sequences of consecutive gaps, known as constellations.…

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…

Let ${\mathcal{P}_{n}}$ denote the set of positive integers which are prime to $n$. Let $B_{n}$ be the $n$-th Bernoulli number. For any prime $p \ge 11$ and integer $r\ge 2$, we prove that $$ \sum\limits_{\begin{smallmatrix}…
