Nicolas inequality we deal can be written as \begin{equation}\label{Nicineq} e^\gamma \log\log N_x < \dfrac{N_x}{\varphi(N_x)}\,, \end{equation} where $x\ge 2$, $N_x$ denotes the product of the primes less or equal than $x$, $\gamma$ is the…
Let $\varphi(n)$ denote the Euler totient function. In this paper, we first establish a new upper bound for $n/\varphi(n)$ involving $K(n)$, the function that counts the number of primorials not exceeding $n$. In particular, this leads to…
In [1] new discretizations of the Euler top have been found. They can be discribed with a Lax pair with a spectral parameter on an elliptic curve. This is used in this paper to perform a finite gap integration.
Let $\theta$ be an irrational number and $\varphi: {\mathbb N} \to {\mathbb R}^{+}$ be a monotone decreasing function tending to zero. Let $$E_\varphi(\theta) =\Big\{y \in \mathbb R: \|n\theta- y\|<\varphi(n), \ {\text{for infinitely…
We prove simple theorems concerning the maximal order of a large class of multiplicative functions. As an application, we determine the maximal orders of certain functions of the type $\sigma_A(n)= \sum_{d\in A(n)} d$, where A(n) is a…
Let $f(n)$ denote the number of unordered factorizations of a positive integer $n$ into factors larger than $1$. We show that the number of distinct values of $f(n)$, less than or equal to $x$, is at most $\exp \left( C \sqrt{\frac{\log…
In this short, we study sums of the shape $\sum_{n\leqslant x}{f([x/n])}/{[x/n]},$ where $f$ is Euler totient function $\varphi$, Dedekind function $\Psi$, sum-of-divisors function $\sigma$ or the alternating sum-of-divisors function…
For $x>0$ let $\pi(x)$ denote the number of primes not exceeding $x$. For integers $a$ and $m>0$, we determine when there is an integer $n>1$ with $\pi(n)=(n+a)/m$. In particular, we show that for any integers $m>2$ and $a\le\lceil…
Under the Riemann Hypothesis, we prove for any natural number $r$ there exist infinitely many large natural numbers $n$ such that $(\gamma_{n+r}-\gamma_n)/(2\pi /\log \gamma_n) > r + \Theta\sqrt{r}$ and $(\gamma_{n+r}-\gamma_n)/(2\pi /\log…
We give a numerical algorithm computing Euler obstruction functions using maximum likelihood degrees. The maximum likelihood degree is a well-studied property of a variety in algebraic statistics and computational algebraic geometry. In…
This note provides an effective lower bound for the number of primes in the quadratic progression $p=n^2+1 \leq x$ as $x \to \infty$.
We introduce an algorithm to compute the functions belonging to a suitable set ${\mathscr F}$ defined as follows: $f\in {\mathscr F}$ means that $f(s,x)$, $s\in A\subset {\mathbb R}$ being fixed and $x>0$, has a power series expansion…
Euler's theorem asserts that $A(n)=B(n)$ where $A(n)$ is the number of partitions of $n$ into distinct parts and $B(n)$ is the number of partitions of $n$ into odd parts. In this paper, it is proved that for $n>0$, \begin{align*}…
From known effective bounds on the prime counting function of the form \[ |\pi(x)-\mathrm{Li}(x)| < a \;x \;(\ln x)^{b} \; \exp\left(-{c}\; \sqrt{\ln x}\right); \qquad (x \geq x_0); \] it is possible to establish exponentially tight…
Euler's totient function counts the positive integers up to a given integer n that are relatively prime to n. The aim of this article is to give a result about the sum of euler's totient function from k equal 1 to n whene p divides n and p…
Combining the mollifiers, we exhibit other choices of coefficients that improve the results on large gaps between the zeros of the Riemann zeta-function. Precisely, assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH), we show that there exist…
We use Maynard's methods to show that there are bounded gaps between primes in the sequence $\{\lfloor n\alpha\rfloor\}$, where $\alpha$ is an irrational number of finite type. In addition, given a superlinear function $f$ satisfying some…
Let $f(n)=\min_{p} |n-p|$, where $p$ is a prime. We show that there is a positive constant $\delta$ such that for any large integer $N$ there exist two positive integers $n_1$ and $n_2$ such that $N=n_1 + n_2$ and $f(n_i)\gg \ln N (\ln\ln…
In a previous article the authors determined the best-known upper bound for the cardinality of the image set for several classes of functions, including planar functions. Here, we show that the upper bound cannot be tight for planar…
