We consider the problem of estimating the tail index $\alpha$ of a distribution satisfying a $(\alpha, \beta)$ second-order Pareto-type condition, where \beta is the second-order coefficient. When $\beta$ is available, it was previously…

For any $m = 3 \left( 2n + 1 \right) with \ n \in \mathbb{N^*} ,$ the prime counting function $\pi(m) = 4 + \left \vert A_4(m) \right \vert + 2 \left \vert A_6(m) \right \vert $ where $A_6(m) $ and $ A_4(m) $ are the sets of Twin Primes and…

Let $p_n$ denote the $n$-th prime. In 2000, Panaitopol established the inequality $p_1 \cdots p_n > p_{n+1}^{n - \pi(n)}$ for all $n \geq 2$, where $\pi(x)$ is the prime counting function. In 2021, Yang and Liao refined this by introducing…

A poly-log time method to compute the truncated theta function, its derivatives, and integrals is presented. The method is elementary, rigorous, explicit, and suited for computer implementation. We repeatedly apply the Poisson summation…

Through an inversion approach, we suggest a possible estimation for the absolute value of Mertens function $\vert M(x) \vert$ that $ \left\vert M(x) \right\vert \sim \left[\frac{1}{\pi \sqrt{\varepsilon}(x+\varepsilon)}\right]\sqrt{x}$…

In this paper we study the Theta splitting function $\Theta(s+1)$, a function defined on the positive integers. We study the distribution of this function for sufficiently large values of the integers. As an application we show that…

Let $\pi(x;\gamma_1,\gamma_2)$ denote the number of primes $p$ with $p\leqslant x$ and $p=\lfloor n^{1/\gamma_1}_1\rfloor=\lfloor n^{1/\gamma_2}_2\rfloor$, where $\lfloor t\rfloor$ denotes the integer part of $t\in\mathbb{R}$ and…

We determine the p-exponent in many of the coefficients in the power series (log(1+x)/x)^t, where t is any integer. In our proof, we introduce a variant of multinomial coefficients. We also characterize the power series x/log(1+x) by…

We consider the function $G(n)=\frac{\sigma(n)}{n\log\log n}$ (where $\sigma(n)=\sum_{d|n}d$) and set an imposed condition on its argument $n$, the fulfillment of which is sufficient for the existence of a prime $p$, at which $G(np)>G(n)$.…

An algorithm to compute the set of prime implicates of a quantifier-free clausal formula X in first order logic had been presented in earlier work. As the knowledge base X is dynamic, new clauses are added to the old knowledge base. In this…

In this paper we show that for some constant $c>0$ and for any $A>0$ there exist some $x(A)>0$ such that, If $q\leq (\log x)^{A}$ then we have \begin{align} \Psi_z(x;\mathcal{N}_q(a,b),q) &= \frac{\Theta (z)}{2\phi(q)}x +…

Let $a>1$. Denote by $l_a(p)$ the multiplicative order of $a$ modulo $p$. We look for an estimate of sum of $\frac{l_a(p)}{p-1}$ over primes $p\leq x$ on average. When we average over $a\leq N$, we observe a statistic of $C\mathrm{Li}(x)$.…

We investigate the complexity of algorithms counting ones in different sets of operations. With addition and logical operations (but no shift) $O(\log^2(n))$ steps suffice to count ones. Parity can be computed with complexity $O(\log(n))$,…

For each positive integer $n$, we denote by $\omega^*(n)$ the number of shifted-prime divisors $p-1$ of $n$, i.e., \[\omega^*(n):=\sum_{p-1\mid n}1.\] First introduced by Prachar in 1955, this function has interesting applications in…
