Let $z\ne \pm1,w^2$ be a fixed integer, and let $f(t)\ne g(t)^2$ be a fixed polynomial over the integers. It is shown that the subset of primes $p\geq 2$ such that $z$ and $f(z)$ is a pair of simultaneous primitive roots modulo $p$ has…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be the set of primes and $\mathbb{N}$ the set of positive integers. Let also $r_1,...,r_t$ be positive real numbers and $R_2(r_1,...,r_t)$ the set of odd integers which can be represented as $$ p+2^{\lfloor…

Let a and f be coprime positive integers. Let g be an integer. Under the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH) it follows by a result of H.W. Lenstra that the set of primes p such that p=a(mod f) and g is a primitive root modulo p has a…

Denote by $p(k)$ the limit, as $n \rightarrow \infty$, of the probability that a random permutation on a set of size $n$ has an invariant set of size $k$. We give an asymptotic formula for $p(k)$, showing that it is asymptotically…

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 establish necessary and sufficient conditions for convergence (in the sense of finite dimensional distributions) of multiplicative measures on the set of partitions. We show that this convergence is equivalent to asymptotic independence…

We consider Akatsuka's zeta Mahler measure as a generating function of higher Mahler measure $m_k(P)$ of a polynomial $P,$ where $m_k(P)$ is the integral of $\log^{k}\left| P \right|$ over the complex unit circle. Restricting ourselves to…

We show that the generating function $\sum_{n\ge0}M_n\,z^n$ for Motzkin numbers $M_n$, when coefficients are reduced modulo a given power of $2$, can be expressed as a polynomial in the basic series $\sum _{e\ge0} ^{} {z^{4^e}}/(…

For a fixed rational number g, not equal to -1,0 or 1 and integers a and d we consider the set of primes p for which the order of g(mod p) is congruent to a(mod d). For d=4 and d=3 it is shown that, under the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis,…

The well-known asymptotic formula for the module of a condenser with one of the plates degenerating to a point is generalized to the case of a condenser of general type. The condensers under consideration consist of n plates, n > 2, and the…

For a polynomial $g(x)$ of deg $k \geq 2$ with integer coefficients and positive integer leading coefficient, we prove an upper bound for the least prime $p$ such that $g(p)$ is in non-homogeneous Beatty sequence $\lbrace \lfloor \alpha…

We derive an asymptotic formula which counts the number of abelian extensions of prime degrees over rational function fields. Specifically, let $\ell$ be a rational prime and $K$ a rational function field $\Bbb F_q(t)$ with $\ell \nmid q$.…

Let $p>5$ be a fixed prime. We obtain an asymptotic formula related to small solutions of quadratic congruences of the form $x_1^2+x_2^2\equiv x_3^2\bmod{p^n}$ where $\max\{|x_1|,|x_2|,|x_3|\}\le p^{\nu n}$ with $\nu>1/2$.

We prove that a suitable asymptotic formula for the average number of representations of integers $n=p_{1}^{3}+p_{2}^{3}+p_{3}^{3}+p_{4}^{3}$, where $p_1,p_2,p_3,p_4$ are prime numbers, holds in intervals shorter than the the ones…

Let $X$ be a scheme of finite type over $\mathbf{Z}$. For $p \in \mathcal{P}$ the set of prime numbers, let $N_{X}(p)$ be the number of $\mathbf{F}_{p}$-points of $X/\mathbf{F}_{p}$. For fixed $n\geq 1$ and $a_{1}, \ldots, a_{n} \in…

The theta cycle of a modular form modulo a prime $p\geq 5$ is well understood. By contrast, the theta cycle modulo a power of $p$ is still mysterious and experimentally erratic. Here we completely determine the theta cycle of a weight $k <…

A number is said to be $y$-smooth if all of its prime factors are less than or equal to $y.$ For all $17/30<\theta\leq 1,$ we show that the density of $y$-smooth numbers in the short interval $[x,x+x^{\theta}]$ is asymptotically equal to…

We consider the Dickman function $\Psi (x,y)$ in the limit when $\ln x/\ln y\to \infty $ and $\ln \ln x \ln y\to 0$. The asymptotic value is expressed in terms of the ratio of iterated loragithm of $x$ and $ln y$.

We obtain asymptotic formulae for the number of primes $p\le x$ for which the reduction modulo $p$ of the elliptic curve $$ \E_{a,b} : Y^2 = X^3 + aX + b $$ satisfies certain ``natural'' properties, on average over integers $a$ and $b$ with…
