We define a primitive index of an integer in a sequence to be the index of the term with the integer as a primitive divisor. For the sequences $k^u+h^u$ and $k^u-h^u$, we discern a formula to find the primitive indexes of any composite…
A group of infinite products over low-order rational polynomials evaluated at the sequence of prime numbers is loosely called the Hardy-Littlewood constants. In this manuscript we look at them as factors embedded in a super-product over…
Myriad articles are devoted to Mertens's theorem. In yet another, we merely wish to draw attention to a proof by Hardy, which uses a Tauberian theorem of Landau that "leads to the conclusion in a direct and elegant manner". Hardy's proof is…
By using the vector-valued theory of singular integrals, we prove a Hardy--Littlewood--Sobolev inequality on product Hardy spaces $H^p_{\rm{prod}}$, which is a parallel result of the classical Hardy--Littlewood--Sobolev inequality. The same…
A well-known conjecture, often attributed to Serre, asserts that any motive over any number field has infinitely many ordinary reductions (in the sense that the Newton polygon coincides with the Hodge polygon). In the case of Hilbert…
We establish the restricted sumset analogue of the celebrated conjecture of S\'{a}rk\"{o}zy on additive decompositions of the set of nonzero squares over a finite field. More precisely, we show that if $q>13$ is an odd prime power, then the…
Let $\mathbb{P}$ denote the set of primes and $\mathcal{N}\subset \mathbb{N}$ be a set with arbitrary weights attached to its elements. Set $\mathfrak{p}_{\mathcal{N}}(n)$ to be the restricted partition function which counts partitions of…
A set of integers is primitive if no number in the set divides another. We introduce a new method for bounding Erd\H{o}s sums of primitive sets, suggested from output of GPT-5.4 Pro, based on Markov chains with von Mangoldt weights. The…
A proof for a conjecture by Shadrin and Zvonkine, relating the entries of a matrix arising in the study of Hurwitz numbers to a certain sequence of rational numbers, is given. The main tools used are iteration matrices of formal power…
Let $K$ be a number field and let $G$ be a finitely generated subgroup of $K^\times$. For all but finitely many primes $\mathfrak p$ of $K$, the reduction $(G \bmod \mathfrak p)$ generates a well-defined subgroup of the multiplicative group…
Using techniques of algebraic and analytic number theory, we resolve a question on monoid rings posed by Kulosman, et. al., under the assumption of the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH). Specifically, we show that under an appropriate…
We prove that in every ring of generalised power series with non-positive real exponents and coefficients in a field of characteristic zero, every series admits a factorisation into finitely many irreducibles of infinite support, the number…
Let $N_a(x)$ denote the number of primes up to $x$ for which the integer $a$ is a primitive root. We show that $N_a(x)$ satisfies the asymptotic predicted by Artin's conjecture for almost all $1\le a\le \exp((\log \log x)^2)$. This improves…
The ternary Goldbach conjecture, or three-primes problem, asserts that every odd integer $n$ greater than $5$ is the sum of three primes. The present paper proves this conjecture. Both the ternary Goldbach conjecture and the binary, or…
This work concerns Artin's Conjecture on primitive roots and related problems for number fields. Let $K$ be a number field and let $W_1$ to $W_n$ be finitely generated subgroups of $K^\times$ of positive rank. We consider the index map,…
We give a large sieve type inequality for functions supported on primes. As application we prove a conjecture by Elliott, and give bounds for short character sums over primes. The proves uses a combination of the large sieve and the Selberg…
We prove the twin prime conjecture and the generalized conjectures of Kronecker and Polignac. Key to the proofs is a new theoretical sieve that combines two concepts that go back to Eratosthenes: the 'sieve' filtering a finite set of…
In 1927, Artin conjectured that any integer other than -1 or a perfect square generates the multiplicative group $\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}^\times$ for infinitely many $p$. In \cite{MoSt}, Moree and Stevenhagen considered a two-variable…
We prove the factorization conjecture for triple-product $p$-adic $L$-functions formulated in a companion article in the special case when two of the (three) factors have complex multiplication.
Let P denote the set of all primes. Suppose that P_1, P_2, P_3 are three subsets of P with the sum of their lower densities relative to P is greater than 2. We prove that for sufficiently large odd integer n, there exist p_i\in P_i such…
