In this work we use the number classification in families of the form 6n+1, and 6n+5 with n integer (Such families contain all odd prime numbers greater than 3 and other compound numbers related with primes). We will use this kind of…
Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC) has become increasingly prominent as a method for conducting parameter inference in a range of challenging statistical problems, most notably those characterized by an intractable likelihood function.…
In this article, we derive better results concerning powered numbers in short intervals, both unconditionally and conditionally on the $abc$-conjecture. We make use of sieve method, a polynomial identity, and a recent breakthrough result on…

We define certain arithmetic derivatives on $\mathbb{Z}$ that respect the Leibniz rule, are additive for a chosen equation $a+b=c$, and satisfy a suitable non-degeneracy condition. Using Geometry of Numbers, we unconditionally show their…
Given $b=-A\pm i$ with $A$ being a positive integer, we can represent any complex number as a power series in $b$ with coefficients in $\mathcal A=\{0,1,\ldots, A^2\}$. We prove that, for any real $\tau\geq 2$ and any non-empty proper…
The Bateman-Horn conjecture is a far-reaching statement about the distribution of the prime numbers. It implies many known results, such as the prime number theorem and the Green-Tao theorem, along with many famous conjectures, such the…
In this short note we report on results on a computational search for a counterexample to the strong coincidence conjecture. In particular, we discuss the method used so that further searches can be conducted.
We announce a number of conjectures associated with and arising from a study of primes and irrationals in $\mathbb{R}$. All are supported by numerical verification to the extent possible.
In this paper, a simple explanation for the Goldbach Conjecture is given. We have shown that the probability of violating the conjecture not only for the prime numbers, but also for any subset of natural numbers whose distribution is…
Abel's continuity theorem for power series is a great tool to compute sums and prove properties of special functions. However, apart from two basic examples, this no longer occupies a place in Analysis courses. This note is an invitation to…
In this paper, we pose many challenging conjectures on congruences involving binomial coefficients and Ap\'ery-like numbers.
We prove that for any positive integer c and any s > 0 there are representations of c as a sum a+b of two coprime positive integers a, b, such that the respective radicals are all greater than K(s)R(c)^(1-s)c^2. For the reprasentations in…
The $abc$ conjecture states that there are only finitely many triples of coprime positive integers $(a,b,c)$ such that $a+b=c$ and $\operatorname{rad}(abc) < c^{1-\epsilon}$ for any $\epsilon > 0$. Using the optimized methods in a recent…
My short answer to this question is that homology is powerful because it computes invariants of higher categories. In this article we show how this true by taking a leisurely tour of the connection between category theory and homological…
The ABC conjecture of Masser and Oesterle' states that if (a,b,c) are coprime integers with a + b + c = 0, then sup(|a|,|b|,|c|) < c_e (rad(abc))^{1+e} for any e > 0. Oesterle' has observed that if the ABC conjecture holds for all (a,b,c)…
Combinatorics is a powerful tool for dealing with relations among objectives mushroomed in the past century. However, an more important work for mathematician is to apply combinatorics to other mathematics and other sciences not merely to…
We consider a variant of the ABC Conjecture, attempting to count the number of solutions to $A+B+C=0$, in relatively prime integers $A,B,C$ each of absolute value less than $N$ with $r(A)<|A|^a, r(B)<|B|^b, r(C)<|C|^c.$ The ABC Conjecture…
In a very celebrated paper A. Connes has formulated a conjecture which is now one of the most important open problem in Operator Algebras. This importance comes from the works of many mathematicians who have found some unexpected equivalent…
In this paper, we offer a brief introduction to the $p$-adic numbers and operations in the metric space defined under the $p$-adic norm. Specifically, we provide a clear description of the derivation of the $p$-adic number via the…
