We study certain aspects of the Selberg sieve, in particular when sifting by rather thin sets of primes. We derive new results for the lower bound sieve suited especially for this setup and we apply them in particular to give a new…
We study an LCM-based analogue of Rowland's GCD-based prime-generating recurrence, introduced by the author in 2008. The multiplicative increments of this sequence are conjectured always to be $1$ or prime, but a complete proof requires a…
In the paper we pursue the analysis from the section 5 of the Talagrand's paper "Sample boundedness of stochastic processes under increment conditions." Ann. Probab. 18, No. 1, 1-49. In particular we give the proof of some Sobolev…
We present a novel approach to the Twin Prime Conjecture, basing on the $6x \pm 1$ representation of primes. By defining so-called twin prime generators $x \in \N$, for which both $6x - 1$ and $6x + 1$ are prime, we reformulate the…
In this work, we improve upon the guarantees for sparse random embeddings, as they were recently provided and analyzed by Freksen at al. (NIPS'18) and Jagadeesan (NIPS'19). Specifically, we show that (a) our bounds are explicit as opposed…
Let $\lambda$ denote the Liouville function. We show that, as $X \rightarrow \infty$, $$\int_{X}^{2X} \sup_{\substack{P(Y)\in \mathbb{R}[Y]\\ deg(P)\leq k}} \Big | \sum_{x \leq n \leq x + H} \lambda(n) e(-P(n)) \Big |\ dx = o ( X H)$$ for…
In this paper, we prove several results on the structure of maximal sets $S \subseteq [N]$ such that $S$ mod $p$ is contained in a short arithmetic progression, or the union of short progressions, where $p$ ranges over a subset of primes in…
Sparse representations have proven their efficiency in solving a wide class of inverse problems encountered in signal and image processing. Conversely, enforcing the information to be spread uniformly over representation coefficients…
We consider time-inhomogeneous ODEs whose parameters are governed by an underlying ergodic Markov process. When this underlying process is accelerated by a factor $\varepsilon^{-1}$, an averaging phenomenon occurs and the solution of the…
It is the purpose of this thesis to enunciate and prove a collection of explicit results in the theory of prime numbers. First, the problem of primes in short intervals is considered. We prove that there is a prime between consecutive cubes…
Recent findings by Jahn, T. Ullrich, Voigtlaender [10] relate non-linear sampling numbers for the square norm to quantities involving trigonometric best $m-$term approximation errors in the uniform norm. Here we establish new results for…
We address a question posed by Ono, prove a general result for powers of an arbitrary prime, and provide an explanation for the appearance of higher congruence moduli for certain small primes. One of our results coincides with a recent…
A linear equation $E$ is said to be sparse if there is $c>0$ so that every subset of $[n]$ of size $n^{1-c}$ contains a solution of $E$ in distinct integers. The problem of characterizing the sparse equations, first raised by Ruzsa in the…
Exponential sums with monomials are highly related to many interesting problems in number theory and well studied by many literatures. In this paper, we consider the exponential sums with polynomials and prove a new upper bound. As an…
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…
We prove an asymptotic formula for the number of integers $\leq x$ which can be written as the product of $k ~(\geq 2)$ distinct primes $p_1\cdots p_k$ with each prime factor in an arithmetic progression $p_j\equiv a_j \bmod q$, $(a_j,…
In \cite{O2015}, T. Oikhberg introduced and studied variants of the greedy and weak greedy algorithms for sequences with gaps. In this paper, we extend some of the notions that appear naturally in connection with these algorithms to the…
This is a preprint of 1992 with some updates. We study sections of the exponential function Taylor series. Interesting inequalities for these sections were considered by G.Hardy, Kesava Menon, W. Gautschi, H.Alzer and others. The main aim…
We show that there are infinitely many primes $p$ such that $p-1$ is divisible by a square $d^2 \geq p^\theta$ for $\theta=1/2+1/2000.$ This improves the work of Matom\"aki (2009) who obtained the result for $\theta=1/2-\varepsilon$ (with…
For any $\varepsilon >0$, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of solutions $n \le x$ to $$ \lVert \alpha n + \beta \rVert < x^{-\frac{1}{4}+\varepsilon} $$ where $n$ is $[y,z]$-smooth for infinitely many real number $x$. In…
