We make explicit a theorem of Pintz concerning the error term in the prime number theorem. This gives an improved version of the prime number theorem with error term roughly square-root of that which was previously known. We apply this to a…

95 years ago Hoheisel proved the existence of primes in the sub-linear interval \[ \left[x, x+x^{1-{1\over 33000}}\right] \qquad \hbox{for $x$ sufficiently large}. \] This was improved by Heilbronn, proving existence of primes in the…

We prove a tight quantum query lower bound $\Omega(n^{k/(k+1)})$ for the problem of deciding whether there exist $k$ numbers among $n$ that sum up to a prescribed number, provided that the alphabet size is sufficiently large. This is an…

We prove the analog of Cram\'er's short intervals theorem for primes in arithmetic progressions and prime ideals, under the relevant Riemann Hypothesis. Both results are uniform in the data of the underlying structure. Our approach is based…

We obtain a lower bound for \[ \#\{x/2< p_{n}\leq x:\ p_n \equiv\ldots\equiv p_{n+m}\equiv a\text{ (mod $q$)},\ p_{n+m} - p_{n}\leq y\}, \] where $p_{n}$ is the $n^{\text{th}}$ prime.

Let $A/K$ be an absolutely simple abelian surface defined over a number field $K$. We give unconditional upper bounds for the number of prime ideals $\mathfrak{p}$ of $K$ with norm up to $x$ such that $A$ has supersingular reduction at…

The aim of this paper is to survey and extend results concerning bounds of the Euclidean minima of abelian number fields. In particular, we give upper bounds for the Euclidean minima of abelian number fields of prime power conductor.

The paper considers the asymptotic of the ratio of the number of primes not exceeding the primorial and the number of residues in the reduced system of residues for the given primorial. We study the relationship between asymptotic lower…

We obtain an upper bound for the number of pairs $ (a,b) \in {A\times B} $ such that $ a+b $ is a prime number, where $ A, B \subseteq \{1,...,N \}$ with $|A||B| \, \gg \frac{N^2}{(\log {N})^2}$, $\, N \geq 1$ an integer. This improves on a…

We give some theoretical and computational results on "random" harmonic sums with prime numbers, and more generally, for integers with a fixed number of prime factors.

We prove some theorems which give sufficient conditions for the existence of prime numbers among the terms of a sequence which has pairwise relatively prime terms.

In this paper, we obtain two spectral upper bounds for the $k$-independence number of a graph which is is the maximum size of a set of vertices at pairwise distance greater than $k$. We construct graphs that attain equality for our first…

This paper studies explicit and theoretical bounds for several interesting quantities in number theory, conditionally on the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis. Specifically, we improve the existing explicit bounds for the least quadratic…

In this Note we show that given any cusp form \pi on GL(3) over the rationals, there exist an infinite number of primes p which are Ramanujan for \pi, i.e., that the local components \pi_p are tempered for an infinite number of p. It turns…

Consider an algebraic number field, $K$, and its ring of integers, $\mathcal{O}_K$. There exists a smallest $B_K>1$ such that for any $x>1$ we can find a prime ideal, $\mathfrak{p}$, in $\mathcal{O}_K$ with norm $N(\mathfrak{p})$ in the…

Using an explicit version of Selberg's upper sieve, we obtain explicit upper bounds for the number of $n\leq x$ such that a non-empty set of irreducible polynomials $F_i(n)$ with integer coefficients are simultaneously prime; this set can…

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,…

Using a smoothing function and recent knowledge on the zeros of the Riemann zeta-function, we compute pairs of $(\Delta,x_0)$ such that for all $x \geq x_0$ there exists at least one prime in the interval $(x(1 - \Delta^{-1}), x]$.

We prove a new upper bound for diagonal two-colour Ramsey numbers, showing that there exists a constant $C$ such that \[r(k+1, k+1) \leq k^{- C \frac{\log k}{\log \log k}} \binom{2k}{k}.\]

We prove several Ramanujan-type congruences modulo powers of $5$ for partition $k$-tuples with $5$-cores, for $k=2, 3, 4$. We also prove some new infinite families of congruences modulo powers of primes for $k$-tuples with $p$-cores, where…
