The distribution of $\alpha p$ modulo one, where $p$ runs over the rational primes and $\alpha$ is a fixed irrational real, has received a lot of attention. It is natural to ask for which exponents $\nu>0$ one can establish the infinitude…
We establish discrete Ingham type and Haraux type inequalities for exponential sums satisfying a weakened gap condition. They enable us to obtain discrete simultaneous observability theorems for systems of vibrating strings or beams.
Infinite exponential sequences of distinct prime numbers of the form $\lfloor a c^{n^d}+b\rfloor$, $n\geq 0$, are proved to exist for well chosen real constants $a>0$, $b$, $c>1$, $d>1$, assuming Cramer's conjecture on prime gaps. There is…
We consider the problem of approaching real numbers with rational numbers with prime denominator and with a single numerator allowed for each denominator. We obtain basic results, both probabilistic and deterministic, draw connections to…
Comparative prime number theory is the study of the {\em{discrepancies}} of distributions when we compare the number of primes in different residue classes. This work presents a list of the problems being investigated in comparative prime…
We first propose two conjectural estimates on Diophantine approximation of logarithms of algebraic numbers. Next we discuss the state of the art and we give further partial results on this topic.
This paper investigates the exponential Diophantine equation of the form $a^x+b=c^y$, where $a, b, c$ are given positive integers with $a,c \ge 2$, and $x,y$ are positive integer unknowns. We define this form as a "Type-I transcendental…
We provide two new proofs of the infinitude of prime numbers, using the additive Ramsey-theoretic result known as Folkman's theorem (alternatively, one can think of these proofs as using Hindman's theorem). This adds to the existing…
Let $[\,\cdot\,]$ be the floor function. In this paper we show that whenever $\eta$ is real, the constants $\lambda_i$ satisfy some necessary conditions, then for any fixed $1<c<38/37$ there exist infinitely many prime triples $p_1,\,…
In the theory of submanifolds, the following problem is fundamental: to establish simple relationships between the main intrinsic invariants and the main extrinsic invariants of the submanifolds.The basic relationships discovered until now…
In this paper, we are concerned with the sign-changing solutions of variational inequality problems. In order to give the existence results of the sign-changing solutions for variational inequality problems, we first construct a suitable…
In this article, we consider the Diophantine equation $\sigma_{2}(n)-n^2=An+B$ with $A=P^2\pm2$. For some $B$, we show that except for finitely many computable solutions in the range $n\leq(|A|+|B|)^{3}$, all the solutions are expressible…
Let $p_{k}$ denote the $k$-th prime and $d(p_{k}) = p_{k} - p_{k - 1}$, the difference between consecutive primes. We denote by $N_{\epsilon}(x)$ the number of primes $\leq x$ which satisfy the inequality $d(p_{k}) \leq (\log p_{k})^{2 +…
We show by an inclusion-exclusion argument that the prime $k$-tuple conjecture of Hardy and Littlewood provides an asymptotic formula for the number of consecutive prime numbers which are a specified distance apart. This refines one aspect…
The idea of generating prime numbers through sequence of sets of co-primes was the starting point of this paper that ends up by proving two conjectures, the existence of infinitely many twin primes and the Goldbach conjecture. The main idea…
We discuss alternative iteration methods for differential equations. We provide a convergence proof for exactly solvable examples and show more convenient formulas for nontrivial problems.
The Diophantine equation 4/n=1/x+1/y+1/z for a Pythagorean prime n is split into two independent Diophantine equations, which correspond to two different types of solution. The solvability of these equations forces certain restrictions on…
Gallagher's theorem describes the multiplicative diophantine approximation rate of a typical vector. We establish a fully-inhomogeneous version of Gallagher's theorem, a diophantine fibre refinement, and a sharp and unexpected threshold for…
Let $d\ge 2$ and $n\ge d$ with $(d,n)\notin \{(2,2),(3,3)\}$. We consider homogeneous Diophantine equations of degree $d$ in $n+1$ variables and whether they have solutions in the primes. In particular, we show that a certain local-global…
We consider the variational inequality problem over the intersection of fixed point sets of firmly nonexpansive operators. In order to solve the problem, we present an algorithm and subsequently show the strong convergence of the generated…
