This document seeks to prove there are infinitely many primes whose difference is 2, referred to as twin prime pairs. This proof's methodology involves constructing a function that approximates the number of positive integers, less than a…
We show that once $\theta>17/30$, every sufficiently long interval $[x,x+x^\theta]$ contains many $k$-term arithmetic progressions of primes, uniformly in the starting point $x$. More precisely, for each fixed $k\ge3$ and $\theta>17/30$,…
Optimal gap sequences in Shellsort, defined as gap sequences having the minimised maximum number of comparisons for a fixed number of pairwise distinct elements, are found by minimax search in reduced permutational spaces, namely Bad…
We improve several recent results by Hong, Lee, Lee and Park (2012) on gaps and Bzd\c{e}ga (2014) on jumps amongst the coefficients of cyclotomic polynomials. Besides direct improvements, we also introduce several new techniques that have…
The theory of symmetry breaking in presence of gauge fields is presented, following the historical track. Particular emphasis is placed upon the underlying concepts.
A geometric-arithmetic progression of primes is a set of $k$ primes (denoted by GAP-$k$) of the form $p_1 r^j + j d$ for fixed $p_1$, $r$ and $d$ and consecutive $j$, {\it i.e}, $\{p_1, \, p_1 r + d, \, p_1 r^2 + 2 d, \, p_1 r^3 + 3 d,…
We study the properties of certain graphs involving the sums of primes. Their structure largely turns out to relate to the distribution of prime gaps and can be roughly seen in Cram\'er's model as well. We also discuss generalizations to…
For any $m \geq 1$, let $H_m$ denote the quantity $H_m := \liminf_{n \to \infty} (p_{n+m}-p_n)$, where $p_n$ denotes the $n^{\operatorname{th}}$ prime; thus for instance the twin prime conjecture is equivalent to the assertion that $H_1$ is…
Update: This work reproduces an earlier result of Peck, which the author was initially unaware of. The method of the proof is essentially the same as the original work of Peck. There are no new results. We show that the sum of squares of…
In this note, we find a new inequality involving primes and deduce several Bonse-type inequalities.
Cyclotomic polynomials play fundamental roles in number theory, combinatorics, algebra and their applications. Hence their properties have been extensively investigated. In this paper, we study the maximum gap $g$ (maximum of the…
Motivated by the Gilbreath conjecture, we develop the notion of the gap sequence induced by any sequence of numbers. We introduce the notion of the path and associated circuits induced by an originator and study the conjecture via the…
In this paper we study the problem of long gaps between values of binary quadratic forms. Let $D_{1}$, $D_{2},\ldots ,D_{r}$ be negative integers and $(s_{n})_{n=1}^{\infty}$ be the sequence of all the numbers representable by any binary…
A generalized Beatty sequence is a sequence $V$ defined by $V(n)=p\lfloor{n\alpha}\rfloor+qn +r$, for $n=1,2,\dots$, where $\alpha$ is a real number, and $p,q,r$ are integers. These occur in several problems, as for instance in homomorphic…
The main results extend to sums over primes in a short interval earlier estimates by the author for "long" Weyl sums over primes.
We present a new method of gap control in two-dimensional periodic systems with the perturbation consisting of a second-order differential operator and a family of narrow potential `walls' separating the period cells in on direction. We…
We prove a couple of related theorems including Legendre's and Andrica's conjecture. Key to the proofs is an algorithm that delivers the exact upper bound on the greatest gap that can occur in a combinatorial game with the set of P primes…
In this note we prove an inequality involving primes and the product of consecutive primes.
I review theoretical ideas and implications of experiments for the gap structure and symmetry of the Fe-based superconductors. Unlike any other class of unconventional superconductors, one has in these systems the possibility to tune the…
In this paper we give an overview of recent results on (upper and lower) discrepancy estimates for (concrete) sequences in the unit-cube. In particular we also give an overview of discrepancy estimates for certain classes of hybrid…
