Schinzel's Hypothesis H is a general conjecture in number theory on prime values of polynomials that generalizes, e.g., the twin prime conjecture and Dirichlet's theorem on primes in arithmetic progression. We prove an arithmetic analog of…

We call a polynomial monogenic if a root $\theta$ has the property that $\mathbb{Z}[\theta]$ is the full ring of integers in $\mathbb{Q}(\theta)$. Consider the two families of trinomials $x^n + ax + b$ and $x^n + cx^{n-1} + d$. For any…

Suppose that $n$ is $0$ or $4$ modulo $6$. We show that there are infinitely many primes of the form $p^2 + nq^2$ with both $p$ and $q$ prime, and obtain an asymptotic for their number. In particular, when $n = 4$ we verify the `Gaussian…

The twin primes conjecture is a very old problem. Tacitly it is supposed that the primes it deals with are finite. In the present paper we consider three problems that are not related to finite primes but deal with infinite integers. The…

Every odd prime number p can be written in exactly (p + 1)/2 ways as a sum ab + cd with min(a, b) > max(c, d) of two ordered products. This gives a new proof Fermat's Theorem expressing primes of the form 1 + 4N as sums of two squares 1 .

Consider the set $\mathcal{K}$ of integers $k$ for which there are infinitely many primes $p$ such that $p+k$ is a power of $2$. The aim of this paper is to show a relationship between $\mathcal{K}$ and the limits points of some set…

We verify that every alternating group of degree at most one quadrillion is invariably generated by an element of prime order together with an element of prime power order.

Let q be a power of 2. We show by representation theory that there exists a q x q unitary matrix of multiplicative order q+1 whose powers generate q+1 pairwise mutually unbiased base in C^q. When q is a power of an odd prime, there is a q x…

We present various constructions of sequences of polynomials satisfying the Binomial Theorem in finite characteristic based on the theory of additive polynomials. Various actions on these constructions are also presented. It is an open…

In this note we will present how Euler's investigations on various different subjects lead to certain properties of the Legendre polynomials. More precisely, we will show that the generating function and the difference equation for the…

Obtained a new property of superposition of the generating functions ln(1/(1-F(x))), where F(x) - generating function with integer coefficients, which allows the construction a primality tests. The theorem which is based on compositions of…

A classical theorem of d'Alembert states that if a polynomial P(x) with real coefficients has a non-real root x=a+ib, then it also has a root x=a-ib. We give a short and elementary inductive proof that avoids any properties of the complex…

Kohnert proposed the first monomial positive formula for Schubert polynomials as the generating polynomial for certain unit cell diagrams obtained from the Rothe diagram of a permutation. Billey, Jockusch and Stanley gave the first proven…

Suppose $I$ is an ideal of a polynomial ring over a field, $I\subseteq k[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$, and whenever $fg\in I$ with degree $\leq b$, then either $f\in I$ or $g\in I$. When $b$ is sufficiently large, it follows that $I$ is prime.…

Let $a,b$ and $n$ be positive integers with $a>b$. In this note, we prove that $$(2bn+1)(2bn+3){2bn \choose bn}\bigg|3(a-b)(3a-b){2an \choose an}{an\choose bn}.$$ This confirms a recent conjecture of Amdeberhan and Moll.

The usual product $m\cdot n$ on $\mathbb{Z}$ can be viewed as the sum of $n$ terms of an arithmetic progression whose first term is $a_{1}=m-n+1$ and whose difference is $d=2$. Generalizing this idea, we define new similar product mappings,…

We investigate bicomplex analogues of fundamental notions from classical algebraic number theory. In particular, we show that the primitive element theorem admits a natural generalization to bicomplex extensions, giving rise to two distinct…

In this paper we prove that if $A$ and $B$ are infinite subsets of positive integers such that every positive integer $n$ can be written as $n=ab$, $a\in A$, $b\in B$, then $\displaystyle \lim_{x\to \infty}\frac{A(x)B(x)}{x}=\infty $. We…

Let $I$ be an arbitrary ideal generated by binomials. We show that certain equivalence classes of fibers are associated to any minimal binomial generating set of $I$. We provide a simple and efficient algorithm to compute the indispensable…

A recent heuristic argument based on basic concepts in spectral analysis showed that the twin prime conjecture and a few other related primes counting problems are valid. A rigorous version of the spectral method, and a proof of the more…
