We show that there exist genus one curves of every index over the rational numbers, answering affirmatively a question of Lang and Tate. The proof is "elementary" in the sense that it does not assume the finiteness of any Shafarevich-Tate…
We propose a number of concepts and properties related to `weighted' statistical inference where the observed data are classified in accordance with a `value' of a sample string. The motivation comes from the concepts of weighted…
Recently, a beautiful paper of Andrews and Sellers has established linear congruences for the Fishburn numbers modulo an infinite set of primes. Since then, a number of authors have proven refined results, for example, extending all of…
In the course of the proof of the irrationality of zeta(2) R. Apery introduced numbers b_n = \sum_{k=0}^n {n \choose k}^2{n+k \choose k}. Stienstra and Beukers showed that for the prime p > 3 Apery numbers satisfy congruence b((p-1)/2) =…
In a study, published in Nature, researchers from DeepMind and mathematicians demonstrated a general framework using machine learning to make conjectures in pure mathematics. Here, we build upon this framework to develop a method for…
The complex numbers are an important part of quantum theory, but are difficult to motivate from a theoretical perspective. We describe a simple formal framework for theories of physics, and show that if a theory of physics presented in this…
For any measure preserving system $(X,\mathcal{X},\mu,T)$ and $A\in\mathcal{X}$ with $\mu(A)>0$, we show that there exist infinitely many primes $p$ such that $\mu\bigl(A\cap T^{-(p-1)}A\cap T^{-2(p-1)}A\bigr) > 0$ (the same holds with…
In this paper we show that if $A$ is a subset of Chen primes with positive relative density $\alpha$, then $A+A$ must have positive upper density at least $c\alpha e^{-c^\prime\log(1/\alpha)^{2/3}(\log\log(1/\alpha))^{1/3}}$ in the natural…
Let $P^+(n)$ denote the largest prime factor of the integer $n$ and $P_y^+(n)$ denote the largest prime factor $p$ of $n$ which satisfies $p\leqslant y$. In this paper, firstly we show that the triple consecutive integers with the two…
In a companion paper, we formulated a global conjecture for the automorphic period integral associated to the symmetric pairs defined by unitary groups over number fields, generalizing a theorem of Waldspurger's toric period for…
Let $D$ be a totally definite quaternion algebra over a totally real number field $F$, and $\mathcal{O}$ be an $O_F$-order (of full rank) in $D$. The type number $t(\mathcal{O})$ is an important arithmetic invariant of $\mathcal{O}$ that…
We discuss sufficiently fast-growing sequences of Turing degrees. The key result is that, assuming sufficient determinacy, if $\phi$ is a formula with one free variable, and S and T are sufficiently fast-growing sequences of Turing degrees…
In this article, we introduce congruential Euler numbers, which are a further generalization of generalized Euler numbers. We prove the $p$-adic congruences of congruential Euler numbers, which include answers to a conjecture related to…
The Brun-Titchmarsh theorem shows that the number of primes $\le x$ which are congruent to $a\pmod{q}$ is $\le (C+o(1))x/(\phi(q)\log{x})$ for some value $C$ depending on $\log{x}/\log{q}$. Different authors have provided different…
In this paper we advance the theory of O'Neil's period-index obstruction map and derive consequences for the arithmetic of genus one curves over global fields. Our first result implies that for every pair of positive integers (P,I) with P…
We show that an ideal $\mathcal{I}$ on the positive integers is meager if and only if there exists a bounded nonconvergent real sequence $x$ such that the set of subsequences [resp. permutations] of $x$ which preserve the set of…
We use the Bateman--Horn Conjecture from number theory to give strong evidence of a positive answer to Peter Neumann's question, whether there are infinitely many simple groups of order a product of six primes. (Those with fewer than six…
We present some new ideas on important problems related to primes. The topics of our discussion are: simple formulae for primes, twin primes, Sophie Germain primes, prime tuples less than or equal to a predefined number, and their…
Bennett, Hart, Iosevich, Pakianathan, and Rudnev found an exponent $s<d$ such that any set $E\subset \mathbb{F}_q^d$ with $|E|\gtrsim q^s$ determines $\gtrsim q^{\binom{k+1}{2}}$ congruence classes of $(k+1)$-point configurations for $k\leq…
We consolidate two widely believed conjectures about tautologies -- no optimal proof system exists, and most require superpolynomial size proofs in any system -- into a $p$-isomorphism-invariant condition satisfied by all paddable…
