In recent work, we considered the frequencies of patterns of consecutive primes $\pmod{q}$ and numerically found biases toward certain patterns and against others. We made a conjecture explaining these biases, the dominant factor in which…
We give estimates from below for the greatest prime factor of the n-th term of a binary recurrence sequence.
We revisit the Bohnenblust--Hille multilinear and polynomial inequalities and prove some new properties. Our main result is a multilinear version of a recent result on polynomials whose monomials have a uniformly bounded number of…
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.
This is a survey article on the Hardy-Littlewood conjecture about primes in quadratic progressions. We recount the history and quote some results approximating this hitherto unresolved conjecture.
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 study the number of prime polynomials of degree $n$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$ in which the $i^{th}$ coefficient is either preassigned to be $a_i \in \mathbb{F}_q$ or outside a small set $S_i \subset \mathbb{F}_q$. This serves as a function…
In this paper, we make a conjecture (conjecture 1) related to the Bateman-Horn conjecture and proceed to study the roots of $x^2+1$ and $x^2+2$ to prime moduli, assuming the truth of the Bateman-Horn conjecture and conjecture 1 and using…
We reinterpret ideas in Klein's paper on transformations of degree $11$ from the modern point of view of dessins d'enfants, and extend his results by considering dessins of type $(3,2,p)$ and degree $p$ or $p+1$, where $p$ is prime. In many…
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…
We introduce the $B$-Stirling numbers of the first and second kind, which are the coefficients of the potential polynomials when we express them in terms of the monomials and the falling factorials, respectively. These numbers include, as…
The notion of block divisibility naturally leads one to introduce unitary cyclotomic polynomials $\Phi_n^*(x)$. They can be written as certain products of cyclotomic poynomials. We study the case where $n$ has two or three distinct prime…
We present in this work a heuristic expression for the density of prime numbers. Our expression leads to results which possesses approximately the same precision of the Riemann's function in the domain that goes from 2 to 1010 at least.…
We give an expression of polynomials for higher sums of powers of integers via the higher order Bernoulli numbers.
Condition numbers of random polynomial systems have been widely studied in the literature under certain coefficient ensembles of invariant type. In this note we introduce a method that allows us to study these numbers for a broad family of…
The Hultman numbers enumerate permutations whose cycle graph has a given number of alternating cycles (they are relevant to the Bafna-Pevzner approach to genome comparison and genome rearrangements). We give two new interpretations of the…
In this paper, we consider the degenerate Carlitz q-Bernoulli numbers and polynomials and we investigate some properties of those polynomials.
This research presents the results of a study on the existence and frequency distribution of the shell primes defined herein as prime numbers that result from the calculation of the "half-shell" of an p-dimensional entity of the form…
Let $P(x) \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ be a polynomial. We give an easy and new proof of the fact that the set of primes $p$ such that $p \mid P(n)$, for some $n \in \mathbb{Z}$, is infinite. We also get analog of this result for some special…
We study the problem of solving integration-by-parts recurrence relations for a given class of Feynman integrals which is characterized by an arbitrary polynomial in the numerator and arbitrary integer powers of propagators, {\it i.e.}, the…
