We show that once $\theta>17/30$, every sufficiently long interval $[x,x+x^\theta]$ contains many $k$-term arithmetic progressions of primes, uniformly in the starting point $x$. More precisely, for each fixed $k\ge3$ and $\theta>17/30$,…
We prove that the primes of the form $x^2+y^2+1$ contain arbitrarily long non-trivial arithmetic progressions.
We determine the asymptotic density $\delta_k$ of the set of ordered $k$-tuples $(n_1,...,n_k)\in \N^k, k\ge 2$, such that there exists no prime power $p^a$, $a\ge 1$, appearing in the canonical factorization of each $n_i$, $1\le i\le k$,…
By using the work of Frantzikinakis and Wierdl, we can see that for all $d\in\mathbb{N}$, $\alpha\in(d,d+1)$, and integers $k\ge d+2$ and $r\ge1$, there exist infinitely many $n\in\mathbb{N}$ such that the sequence…
Let $S$ be a string of $l$ decimal digits. We give an explicit upper bound on some prime $p$ whose decimal representation contains the string $S$. We also show, as a corollary of the Green-Tao theorem, that there are arbitrarily long…
B. Green and T. Tao have recently proved that 'the set of primes contains arbitrary long arithmetic progressions', answering to an old question with a remarkably simple formulation. The proof does not use any "transcendental" method and any…
Let $f$ be a primitive positive definite integral binary quadratic form of discriminant $-D$ and let $\pi_f(x)$ be the number of primes up to $x$ which are represented by $f$. We prove several types of upper bounds for $\pi_f(x)$ within a…
Let $\chi$ be a Dirichlet character mod $D$ with $L(s,\chi)$ its associated $L$-function, and let $\psi(x,q,a)$ be Chebyshev's prime-counting function for primes congruent to $a$ modulo $q$. We show that under the assumption of an…
Let $\chi$ be a Dirichlet character mod $D$ with $L(s,\chi)$ its associated $L$-function, and let $\psi(x,q,a)$ be, as usual, Chebyshev's prime-counting function for the primes of the arithmetic progression $a$ (mod $q$) with $(a,q)=1$. For…
The classical prime geodesic theorem (PGT) gives an asymptotic formula (as $x$ tends to infinity) for the number of closed geodesics with length at most $x$ on a hyperbolic manifold $M$. Closed geodesics correspond to conjugacy classes of…
The transference principle of Green and Tao enabled various authors to transfer Szemer\'edi's theorem on long arithmetic progressions in dense sets to various sparse sets of integers, mostly sparse sets of primes. In this paper, we provide…
Let $\psi: \mathbb{N} \to [0,1/2]$ be given. The Duffin-Schaeffer conjecture, recently resolved by Koukoulopoulos and Maynard, asserts that for almost all reals $\alpha$ there are infinitely many coprime solutions $(p,q)$ to the inequality…
We prove an effective version of the inverse theorem for the Gowers $U^3$-norm for functions supported on high-rank quadratic level sets in finite vector spaces. For configurations controlled by the $U^3$-norm (complexity-two…
We give an asymptotic for the number of prime solutions to $Q(x_1,\dots, x_8) = N$, subject to a mild non-degeneracy condition on the homogeneous quadratic form $Q$. The argument initially proceeds via the circle method, but this does not…
We use the convolution method for arithmetic functions of several variables to deduce an asymptotic formula for the number of $k$-tuples of positive integers with components which are pairwise non-coprime and $\le x$. More generally, we…
We give a new proof of Witten asymptotic conjecture for Seifert manifolds with non vanishing Euler class and one exceptional fiber. Our method is based on semiclassical analysis on a two dimensional phase space torus. We prove that the…
In these notes, we refine Mitsui's Prime Number Theorem from 1957, which for a number field $K$ predicts how many prime elements there are in bounded convex sets in $K \otimes_{\mathbf Q} \mathbf R$, by incorporating potential Siegel zeros…
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…
Let $\mathbf{P}$ denote the set of prime numbers and, for an appropriate function $h$, define a set $\mathbf{P}_{h}=\{p\in\mathbf{P}: \exists_{n\in\mathbb{N}}\ p=\lfloor h(n)\rfloor\}$. The aim of this paper is to show that every subset of…
If $\vf_1, ... \vf_m\colon\Z\to\Z^\ell$ are polynomials with zero constant terms and $E\subset\Z^\ell$ has positive upper Banach density, then we show that the set $E\cap (E-\vf_1(p-1))\cap\...\cap (E-\vf_m(p-1))$ is nonempty for some prime…
