We extend the necessity part of Lucas Lehmer iteration for testing Mersenne prime to all base and uniformly for both generalized Mersenne and Wagstaff numbers(the later correspond to negative base). The role of the quadratic iteration $x…
This work proposes elementary proofs of several related primes counting problems, based on an elementary weighted sieve. The subsets of primes considered here are the followings: the subset of twin primes PT = {p and p + 2 are primes}, the…
Let $n$ be a positive integer and $\xi$ a transcendental real number. We are interested in bounding from above the uniform exponent of polynomial approximation $\widehat{\omega}_n(\xi)$. Davenport and Schmidt's original 1969 inequality…
The poset of permutations of [n] under Bruhat ordering is studied. We give nontrivial upper and lower bounds for the number of comparable pairs of permutations in both the weak and strong versions of this order. In light of numerical…
The paper considers estimates for some sums and products of functions of prime numbers. Several assertions on this topic have been proven. We also study extremal estimates for strongly additive and strongly multiplicative arithmetic…
We give an explicit upper bound for non-principal Dirichlet $L$-functions on the line $s=1+it$. This result can be applied to improve the error in the zero-counting formulae for these functions.
We prove several general formulas for the distributions of various permutation statistics over any set of permutations whose quasisymmetric generating function is a symmetric function. Our formulas involve certain kinds of plethystic…
Let $p_n$ denote the $n^{th}$ prime. Goldston, Pintz, and Yildirim recently proved that $ \liminf_{n\to \infty} \frac{(p_{n+1}-p_n)}{\log p_n} =0.$ We give an alternative proof of this result. We also prove some corresponding results for…
We present a function that tests for primality, factorizes composites and builds a closed form expression of $\pi(n^2)$ in terms of $\sum_{3 \leq p \leq n} \frac{1}{p}$ and a weaker version of $\omega(n)$.
The primary purpose of this article is to study the asymptotic and numerical estimates in detail for higher degree polynomials in $\pi(x)$ having a general expression of the form, \begin{align*} P(\pi(x)) - \frac{e x}{\log x} Q(\pi(x/e)) +…
The theorem below gives another way of computing the distribution prime counting function without using recursion and the values of Prime numbers
We present effective upper bounds on the symmetric bilinear complexity of multiplication in extensions of a base finite field Fp2 of prime square order, obtained by combining estimates on gaps between prime numbers together with an optimal…
The aim of this work is to provide an upper bound on the eigenvalues counting function $N(\mathbb{R}^n,-\Delta+V,e)$ of a Sch\"odinger operator $-\Delta +V$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ corresponding to a potential $V\in…
The twin prime conjecture asserts that there are infinitely many pairs of primes that differ by two. While recent advances have improved our understanding of bounded prime gaps, the conjecture remains unresolved. This paper refines the…
The open problem of determining the exact value of the $n$-th linear polarization constant $c_n$ of $\R^n$ has received considerable attention over the past few years. This paper makes a contribution to the subject by providing a new lower…
We shall give an explicit upper bound for the smallest prime factor of multiperfect numbers of the form $N=p_1^{\alpha_1}\cdots p_s^{\alpha_s} q_1^{\beta_1}\cdots q_t^{\beta_t}$ with $\beta_1, \ldots, \beta_t$ bounded by a given constant.…
We study the average distribution of primes of size $x$ in arithmetic progressions to moduli larger than $x^{\frac{1}{2}}$. Using arithmetic information from the works of many authors together with different variants of the original…
For an $n$-bit positive integer $a$ written in binary as $$ a = \sum_{j=0}^{n-1} \varepsilon_{j}(a) \,2^j $$ where, $\varepsilon_j(a) \in \{0,1\}$, $j\in\{0, \ldots, n-1\}$, $\varepsilon_{n-1}(a)=1$, let us define $$ \overleftarrow{a} =…
In 2020, Roger Baker \cite{Bak} proved a result on the exceptional set of moduli in the prime number theorem for arithmetic progressions of the following kind. Let $\mathcal{S}$ be a set of pairwise coprime moduli $q\le x^{9/40}$. Then the…
The best polynomial approximation and Chebyshev approximation are both important in numerical analysis. In tradition, the best approximation is regarded as more better than the Chebyshev approximation, because it is usually considered in…
