In this paper we prove an incidence bound for points and cubic curves over prime fields. The methods generalise those used by Mohammadi, Pham, and Warren (2021).
We prove the $p$-parity conjecture for elliptic curves over global fields of characteristic $p > 3$. We also present partial results on the $\ell$-parity conjecture for primes $\ell \neq p$.
In this article, we prove an "equivalence" between two higher even moments of primes in short intervals under Riemann Hypothesis. We also provide numerical evidence in support of these asymptotic formulas.
We prove the following function field analog of the Hardy-Littlewood conjecture (which generalizes the twin prime conjecture) over large finite fields. Let n,r be positive integers and q an odd prime power. For distinct polynomials a_1,…
The set of short intervals between consecutive primes squared has the pleasant---but seemingly unexploited---property that each interval $s_k:=\{p_k^2, \dots,p_{k+1}^2-1\}$ is fully sieved by the $k$ first primes. Here we take advantage of…
We address the question of the infinitude of twin and cousin prime pairs from a probabilistic perspective. Our approach partitions the set of integer numbers greater than $2$ in finite intervals of the form $[p_{n-1}^2,p_n^2)$, $p_{n-1}$…
The Hardy--Littlewood prime $k$-tuples conjecture has long been thought to be completely unapproachable with current methods. While this sadly remains true, startling breakthroughs of Zhang, Maynard, and Tao have nevertheless made…
In the present work a new simple proof of the theorem of Gallagher about the average of the singular series in the Hardy-Littlewood prime k-tuple conjecture is proved (in an even stronger form) which is uniform with respect to k (if the…
Instead of a strong quantitative form of the Hardy-Littlewood prime $k$-tuple conjecture, one can assume an average form of it and still obtains the same distribution result on $\psi(x+h) - \psi(x)$ by Montgomery and Soundararajan [1].
One of the questions of distribution of prime numbers is considered in the article. It is shown what error is obtained from the assumption that the asymptotic density of a sequence of primes is a probability. Various forms of an analogue of…
In 1976, Gallagher showed that, conditional on the Hardy--Littlewood conjectures, the number of primes below $x$ in a randomly chosen short interval of length $\lambda \log x$ asymptotically follows a Poisson distribution with mean…
Fix a prime number $p$. Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of characteristic coprime to 2, 3, and $p$, which also contains the primitive $p$-th root of unity $\mu_p$. Based on the works by Swinnerton-Dyer and Klagsbrun, Mazur, and Rubin,…
Let $\mathfrak{p}_{\mathbb{P}_r}(n)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$ into $r$-full primes. We use the Hardy-Littlewood circle method to find the asymptotic of $\mathfrak{p}_{\mathbb{P}_r}(n)$ as $n \to \infty$. This extends previous…
In a surprising recent work, Lemke Oliver and Soundararajan noticed how experimental data exhibits erratic distributions for consecutive pairs of primes in arithmetic progressions, and proposed a heuristic model based on the…
We prove that suitable asymptotic formulae in short intervals hold for the problems of representing an integer as a sum of a prime square and a square, or a prime square. Such results are obtained both assuming the Riemann Hypothesis and in…
In the present paper, we provide a new analogy between number fields and 1-dimensional function fields over finite fields from the viewpoint that the maximal cyclotomic extension of a number field is analogous to the constant field…
Assuming that Siegel zeros exist, we prove a hybrid version of the Chowla and Hardy--Littlewood prime tuples conjectures. Thus, for an infinite sequence of natural numbers $x$, and any distinct integers $h_1,\dots,h_k,h'_1,\dots,h'_\ell$,…
On the assumption of the Riemann hypothesis, we give explicit upper bounds on the difference between consecutive prime numbers.
We prove a contractive Hardy-Littlewood type inequality for functions from $H^p(\mathbb{T})$, $0 < p \le 2$ which is sharp in the first two Taylor coefficients and asymptotically at infinity.
We conjecture average counting functions for prime $k$-tuples based on a gamma distribution hypothesis for prime powers. The conjecture is closely related to the Hardy-Littlewood conjecture for $k$-tuples but yields better estimates.…
