We propose a refined version of the existing conjectural asymptotic formula for the moments of the family of quadratic Dirichlet L-functions over rational function fields. Our prediction is motivated by two natural conjectures that provide…

Assuming Dickson's conjecture, we obtain multidimensional analogues of recent results on the behavior of certain multiplicative arithmetic functions near twin-prime arguments. This is inspired by analogous unconditional theorems of Schinzel…

Let $k\ge 1$ be an integer. We prove that a suitable asymptotic formula for the average number of representations of integers $n=p_{1}^{k}+p_{2}^{2}+p_{3}^{2}$, where $p_1,p_2,p_3$ are prime numbers, holds in intervals shorter than the ones…

We establish a function field analogue of Mertens' formula for Euler products restricted to primes in arithmetic progressions over the polynomial ring F_q[t]. Our results are in direct correspondence with those of Languasco and Zaccagnini…

We study an asymptotic formula for average orders of Goldbach representations of an integer as the sum of k primes. We extend the existing result for k=2 to a general k, for which we obtain a better error term. Moreover, we prove an…

The ternary Goldbach conjecture states that every odd number $n\geq 7$ is the sum of three primes. The estimation of the Fourier series $\sum_{p\leq x} e(\alpha p)$ and related sums has been central to the study of the problem since Hardy…

We prove a kind of "almost all symmetry" result for the primes, i.e. we give non-trivial bounds for the "symmetry integral", say $I_{\Lambda}(N,h)$, of the von Mangoldt function $\Lambda(n)$ ($:= \log p$ for prime-powers $n=p^r$, 0…

We prove a number field analogue of the Green--Tao--Ziegler theorem on simultaneous prime values of degree 1 polynomials whose linear parts are pairwise linearly independent. Applications of our results include a Hasse principle of rational…

We establish unconditional $\Omega$-results for all weighted even moments of primes in arithmetic progressions. We also study the moments of these moments and establish lower bounds under GRH. Finally, under GRH and LI we prove an…

We study three integrals related to the celebrated pair correlation conjecture of H. L. Montgomery. The first is the integral of Montgomery's function $F(\alpha, T)$ in bounded intervals, the second is an integral introduced by Selberg…

Although we expect to find many smooth numbers (i.e., numbers with no large prime factors) among the values taken by a polynomial with integer coefficients, it is unclear what the asymptotic number of such smooth values should be; this is…

A new derivation of the classic asymptotic expansion of the n-th prime is presented. A fast algorithm for the computation of its terms is also given, which will be an improvement of that by Salvy (1994). Realistic bounds for the error with…

In this paper, we use the former of the authors developed theory of \emph{circles of partition} to investigate possibilities to prove the binary Goldbach and Lemoine conjectures. We state the \emph{squeeze principle} and its consequences…

We give a new heuristic for all of the main terms in the integral moments of various families of primitive L-functions. The results agree with previous conjectures for the leading order terms. Our conjectures also have an almost identical…

For each of the functions $f \in \{\phi, \sigma, \omega, \tau\}$ and every natural number $k$, we show that there are infinitely many solutions to the inequalities $f(p_n-1) < f(p_{n+1}-1) < \dots < f(p_{n+k}-1)$, and similarly for…

We survey some past conditional results on the distribution of large differences between consecutive primes and examine how the Hardy-Littlewood prime k-tuples conjecture can be applied to this question.

Let $u(x)$ be a subpolynomial function in a Hardy field. We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the weighted uniform distribution of the sequences $(u(n))_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ and $(u(p_n))_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$, where $p_n$ denotes…

Let $H = N^{\theta}, \theta > 2/3$ and $k \geq 1$. We obtain estimates for the following exponential sum over primes in short intervals: \[ \sum_{N < n \leq N+H} \Lambda(n) e(g(n)), \] where $g$ is a polynomial of degree $k$. As a…

We propose analogs of the classical Generalized Riemann Hypothesis and the Generalized Simplicity Conjecture for the characteristic p L-series associated to function fields over a finite field. These analogs are based on the use of absolute…

Using the concepts of Hyperbolic Classification of Natural Numbers, Essential Regions and Goldbach Conjecture Function we prove that the existence of a proof of the Goldbach Conjecture in First-Order Arithmetic would imply the existence of…
