We showed that the prime gap for a prime number p is less than or equal to the prime count of the prime number.
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…
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…
Using evaluations of the difference between consecutive primes we develop another way of estimating of the number of primes in the interval $(n, 2n)$. We also discuss the ultra Cramer conjecture, $p_{n+1} - p_n = O(log^{1+\epsilon}p_n)$…
In this note, we approximate the average of prime powers in the decomposition of $n!$ into prime numbers.
We introduce a modification of Pillai's prime map: the prime-power map. This map fixes $1$, divides its argument by $p$ if it is a prime-power $p^k$, otherwise subtracts from its argument the largest prime-power not exceeding it. We study…
The probability of finding a prime multiplet, i.e., a sequence of primes $p$ and $p+a_i$, $i=1... m$, being all primes where $p$ is some prime less than the integer $n$ is naively $1/log(n)^{m+1}$. It is shown that, in reality, it is…
In 1982, Erd\"os and van Lint showed an estimate for the average of the ratio of the smallest and largest prime divisor of $n$. In this note, we apply C.H. Jia's method to give an estimate for the average of positive integer power of the…
We define a family {$\gamma(P)$} of generalized Euler constants indexed by finite sets of primes $P$ and study their distribution. These arise from partial sums of reciprocals of integers not divisible by any prime in $P$. An apparent…
A Prime Difference Champion (PDC) for primes up to $x$ is defined to be any element of the set of one or more differences that occur most frequently among all positive differences between primes $\le x$. Assuming an appropriate form of the…
We obtain an upper bound for the distribution of primes in the form $n^4 + k$ up to $x$, averaged over $k$ with small square-full part. As a corollary, we show that for almost all $k$, there is an expected amount of primes in the form $n^4…
In this paper we study the integrals of fractional parts of given functions, and develop some new tools to understand the behaviour of prime differences. We demonstrate how simply some seemingly difficult conjectures related to prime…
In this paper, we will give some estimation for the average error of the prime number theorem.
We prove that the error in the prime number theorem can be quantitatively improved beyond the Riemann Hypothesis bound by using versions of Montgomery's conjecture for the pair correlation of zeros of the Riemann zeta-function which are…
The Bradley-Terry model assigns probabilities for the outcome of paired comparison experiments based on strength parameters associated with the objects being compared. We consider different proposed choices of prior parameter distributions…
n this paper, we state several conjectures regarding distribution of primes and of pairs of primes represented by irreducible homogeneous polynomial in two variables $f(a,b)$. We formulate conjectures with respect to the slope $t=b/a$ for…
We present a new, elementary, dynamical proof of the prime number theorem.
Baker, Harman, and Pintz showed that a weak form of the Prime Number Theorem holds in intervals of the form $[x-x^{0.525},x]$ for large $x$. In this paper, we extend a result of Maynard and Tao concerning small gaps between primes to…
We investigate some extremal problems in Fourier analysis and their connection to a problem in prime number theory. In particular, we improve the current bounds for the largest possible gap between consecutive primes assuming the Riemann…
We prove the theorems which are equivalent to the Roland's results such that a new form of them allows to consider some generalizations. In particular, we give generators of primes more than a fixed prime.
