Through an inversion approach, we suggest a possible estimation for the absolute value of Mertens function $\vert M(x) \vert$ that $ \left\vert M(x) \right\vert \sim \left[\frac{1}{\pi \sqrt{\varepsilon}(x+\varepsilon)}\right]\sqrt{x}$…
In this paper we present a two-term Machin-like formula for pi \[\frac{\pi}{4} = 2^{k - 1}\arctan\left(\frac{1}{u_1}\right) + \arctan\left(\frac{1}{u_2}\right)\] with small Lehmer's measure $e \approx 0.245319$ and describe iteration…
This short paper presents an exact formula for counting twin prime pairs less than or equal to x in terms of the classical Smarandache Function. An extension of the formula to count prime pairs (p, p+2n), n > 1, is also given.
The decimal digits of $\pi$ are widely believed to behave like as statistically independent random variables taking the values $0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5$, $6, 7, 8, 9$ with equal probabilities $1/10$. In this article, first, another similar…
This research article provides an unconditional proof of an inequality proposed by Srinivasa Ramanujan involving the Prime Counting Function $\pi(x)$, \begin{align*} (\pi(x))^{2}<\frac{ex}{\log x}\pi\left(\frac{x}{e}\right) \end{align*} for…
Let $(a(n) : n \in \mathbb{N})$ denote a sequence of nonnegative integers. Let $0.a(1)a(2)...$ denote the real number obtained by concatenating the digit expansions, in a fixed base, of consecutive entries of $(a(n) : n \in \mathbb{N})$.…
We give explicit numerical values with 100 decimal digits for the constant in the Mertens product over primes in the arithmetic progressions $a \bmod q$, for $q \in \{3$, ..., $100\}$ and $(a, q) = 1$.
Let $\mathcal{A}'$ be the set of integers missing any three fixed digits from their decimal expansion. We produce primes in a thin sequence by proving an asymptotic formula for counting primes of the form $p = m^2 + \ell^2$, with $\ell \in…
We extend our previous computations to show that there are 1401644 Carmichael numbers up to $10^{18}$. As before, the numbers were generated by a back-tracking search for possible prime factorisations together with a ``large prime…
There is little known about the methods used by the ancient Babylonians and Egyptians to arrive at their recorded estimates of the value of Pi. A surprisingly accurate estimate of Pi was recently revealed coded within a verse in the book of…
We report on the results of a computer search for primes $p$ which divide an Harmonic number $H_{\lfloor p/N \rfloor}$ with small $N > 1$.
This paper considers a probabilistic-analytical approach to determining asymptotics of prime objects on the initial interval of the natural series. The author proposes a new method based on the construction of a probability space. An…
For a prime p and nonnegative integers n,k, consider the set A_{n,k}^{(p)}={x is in [0,1,...,n]: p^k||binom {n} {x}}. Let the expansion of n+1 in base p be: n+1=alpha_{0} p^{\nu}+alpha_{1}p^{nu-1}+...+alpha_{nu}, where 0<=alpha_{i}<=…
We estimate from below the lower density of the set of prime numbers p such that p-1 has a prime factor of size at least p^c, where c lies in between 1/4 and 1/2. We also establish upper and lower bounds on the counting function of the set…
The results of the study provide guidelines for the development and applications of algorithms. When the number of steps for calculating an assumption tends to infinity, probability theory can be applied to predict whether the assumption…
In an attempt to provide an answer to the increasing criticism against p-values and to bridge the gap between statistical inference and prediction modelling, we introduce the probability of improved prediction (PIP). In general, the PIP is…
We describe an algorithm for arbitrary-precision computation of the elementary functions (exp, log, sin, atan, etc.) which, after a cheap precomputation, gives roughly a factor-two speedup over previous state-of-the-art algorithms at…
This paper is devoted to study some expressions of the type $\prod_{p} p^{\lfloor\frac{x}{f(p)}\rfloor}$, where $x$ is a nonnegative real number, $f$ is an arithmetic function satisfying some conditions, and the product is over the primes…
We continue investigations on the average number of representations of a large positive integer as a sum of given powers of prime numbers. The average is taken over a short interval, whose admissible length depends on whether or not we…
Let $P(x) \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ be a polynomial. We give an easy and new proof of the fact that the set of primes $p$ such that $p \mid P(n)$, for some $n \in \mathbb{Z}$, is infinite. We also get analog of this result for some special…
