The nucleation rate derived in the classical theory contains at least one undetermined parameter, which may be expressed in terms of the Langer first-principles theory. But the uncertainties in the accounting for fluctuation modes, which…

By defining the dimension of natural numbers as the number of prime factors, all natural numbers smaller than 2^(n+1) (n is a natural number) can be classified by their dimensions, and the count of numbers of each dimension gives a…

If the prime numbers are pseudo-randomly distributed, then analogy with quantum systems suggests that counting primes might be modeled by a non-homogeneous Poisson process. Consequently, postulating underlying gamma statistics, more-or-less…

Goldston, Pintz and Y\i ld\i r\i m have shown that if the primes have `level of distribution' $\theta$ for some $\theta>1/2$ then there exists a constant $C(\theta)$, such that there are infinitely many integers $n$ for which the interval…

By establishing an improved level of distribution we study almost primes of the form $f(p,n)$ where $f$ is an irreducible binary form over $\mathbb Z$.

The spectral form factor of random matrix theory plays a key role in the description of disordered and chaotic quantum systems. While its moments are known to be approximately Gaussian, corrections subleading in the matrix dimension, $D$,…

Let the group $G = AB$ be the product of the subgroups $A$ and $B$. We determine some structural properties of $G$ when the $p$-elements in $A\cup B$ have prime power indices in $G$, for some prime $p$. More generally, we also consider the…

In this paper it was shown that all prime numbers lie on 96 half-lines. At the same time, it was shown that if a given number does not lie on any of the above half-lines, then it is a composite number. A corresponding linear mathematical…

We formulate, using heuristic reasoning, precise conjectures for the range of the number of primes in intervals of length $y$ around $x$, where $y\ll (\log x)^2$. In particular we conjecture that the maximum grows surprisingly slowly as $y$…

We show by an inclusion-exclusion argument that the prime $k$-tuple conjecture of Hardy and Littlewood provides an asymptotic formula for the number of consecutive prime numbers which are a specified distance apart. This refines one aspect…

While the prime numbers have been subject to mathematical inquiry since the ancient Greeks, the accumulated effort of understanding these numbers has - as Marcus du Sautoy recently phrased it - 'not revealed the origins of what makes the…

Fix a modulus $q$. One would expect the number of primes in each invertible residue class mod $q$ to be multinomially distributed, i.e. for each $p \,\mathrm{mod}\, q$ to behave like an independent random variable uniform on…

Random, uncorrelated displacements of particles on a lattice preserve the hyperuniformity of the original lattice, that is, normalized density fluctuations vanish in the limit of infinite wavelengths. In addition to a diffuse contribution,…

In this paper, we consider pairs of a prime and a prime power with a fixed difference. We prove an average result on the distribution of such pairs. This is a partial improvement of the result of Bauer (1998).

Based on symbolic dynamics methods, we show the primes gap pattern could be described by the chaos orbit of Logistic mapping X(k+1)=1-uX(k)^2, u=1.5437. If so, there will be arbitrarily many twin primes.
