The $\Sopfr(n)$ function is defined as the sum of prime factors of $n$ each of which is taken with its multiplicity. This function is studied numerically. The analogy between $\Sopfr(n)$ and the primes distribution function is drawn and…

A celebrated analogy between prime factorizations of integers and cycle decompositions of permutations is explored here. Asymptotic formulas characterizing semismooth numbers (possessing at most several large factors) carry over to random…

Let $S(n)$ denote the least primary factor in the primary decomposition of the multiplicative group $M_n = (\Bbb Z/n\Bbb Z)^\times$. We give an asymptotic formula, with order of magnitude $x/(\log x)^{1/2}$, for the counting function of…

In this paper, a new formula for {\pi}^(2)(N) is formulated, it is a function that counts the number of semi-primes not exceeding a given number N. A semi-prime is a natural number that is the product of precisely two prime numbers, the two…
