We give a formula for the determinant of an $n\times n$ matrix with entries from a commutative ring with unit. The formula can be evaluated by a "straight-line program" performing only additions, subtractions and multiplications of ring…
Summation arithmetic functions with asymptotically independent terms are studied in the paper, the limit of which is the law of normal distribution. Assertions about the asymptotic behavior of the indicated functions are proved.
In this paper, we enumerate Newton polygons asymptotically. The number of Newton polygons is computable by a simple recurrence equation, but unexpectedly the asymptotic formula of its logarithm contains growing oscillatory terms. As the…
We pose thirty conjectures on arithmetical sequences, most of which are about monotonicity of sequences of the form $(\root n\of{a_n})_{n\ge 1}$ or the form $(\root{n+1}\of{a_{n+1}}/\root n\of{a_n})_{n\ge1}$, where $(a_n)_{n\ge 1}$ is a…
An algorithm counting the number of ones in a binary word is presented running in time $O(\log\log b)$ where $b$ is the number of ones. The operations available include bit-wise logical operations and multiplication.
We establish an asymptotic formula for the number of integral solutions of bounded height for pairs of diagonal quartic equations in $26$ or more variables. In certain cases, pairs in $25$ variables can be handled.
We present the first fixed-length elementary closed-form expressions for the prime-counting function, $\pi(n)$, and the $n$-th prime number, $p(n)$. These expressions are arithmetic terms, requiring only a finite and fixed number of…
We study an asymptotic formula for counting integral points over an equation defined by a non-degenerated indefinite integral ternary quadratic form $f$ representing a non-zero integer $a$ such that $-a\cdot det(f)$ is square over a number…
When can $n$ given numbers be combined using arithmetic operators from a given subset of $\{+, -, \times, \div\}$ to obtain a given target number? We study three variations of this problem of Arithmetic Expression Construction: when the…
Let $p$ be a prime and $n$ a positive integer such that $\sqrt{\frac p2} + 1 \leq n \leq \sqrt{p}$. For any arithmetic progression $A$ of length $n$ in $\mathbb{F}_p$, we establish an asymptotic formula for the number of directions…
In studying the complexity of iterative processes it is usually assumed that the arithmetic operations of addition, multiplication, and division can be performed in certain constant times. This assumption is invalid if the precision…
computable functions are defined by abstract finite deterministic algorithms on many-sorted algebras. We show that there exist finite universal algebraic specifications that specify uniquely (up to isomorphism) (i) all abstract computable…
We prove that suitable asymptotic formulae in short intervals hold for the problems of representing an integer as a sum of a prime square and a square, or a prime square. Such results are obtained both assuming the Riemann Hypothesis and in…
The arithmetic of natural numbers has a natural and simple encoding within sets, and the simplest set whose structure is not that of any natural number extends this set-theoretic representation to positive and negative integers. The…

The set of prime numbers has been analyzed, based on their algebraic and arithmetical structure. Here by obtaining a sort of linear formula for the set of prime numbers, they are redefined and identified; under a systematic procedure it has…
Let f be an arithmetic function satisfying certain conditions. In this paper, we give an asymptotic formula for the sum \[\sum_{n_1 n_2 \cdots n_r \leq x} f\left(\left\lfloor \frac{x}{n_1 n_2 \cdots n_r} \right\rfloor\right), \quad r \geq…
A semiprime is a natural number which can be written as the product of two primes. The asymptotic behaviour of the function $\pi_2(x)$, the number of semiprimes less than or equal to $x$, is studied. Using a combinatorial argument,…
A study of certain Hamiltonian systems has lead Y. Long to conjecture the existence of infinitely many primes of the form $p=2[\alpha n]+1$, where $1<\alpha<2$ is a fixed irrational number. An argument of P. Ribenboim coupled with classical…
Traditional computers work with finite numbers. Situations where the usage of infinite or infinitesimal quantities is required are studied mainly theoretically. In this paper, a recently introduced computational methodology (that is not…
