For a base $b\geq 2$ and a set of digits $\mathcal{A}\subset \{0,...,b-1\}$, let $\mathcal{P}$ denote the set of prime numbers with digits restricted to $\mathcal{A}$, when written in base-$b$. We prove that if $A\subset \mathbb{N}$ has…

For $m,q \in \mathbb{N}$, we call an $m$-tuple $(a_1,\ldots,a_m) \in \prod_{i=1}^m (\mathbb{Z}/q\mathbb{Z})^\times$ good if there are infinitely many consecutive primes $p_1,\ldots,p_m$ satisfying $p_i \equiv a_i \pmod{q}$ for all $i$. We…

The most simple and famous divergent power series coming from ODE may be the so-called Euler series $\sum_{n\ge 0}(-1)^n\,n!\,x^{n+1}$, that, as well as all its positive powers, is Borel-summable in any direction excepted the negative real…

The Euler phi function on a given integer $n$ yields the number of positive integers less than $n$ that are relatively prime to $n$. Equivalently, it gives the order of the group of units in the quotient ring $\mathbb{Z}/(n)$. We generalize…

Let $n$ be a non-negative integer and put $p_{n}(x)=\prod_{i=0}^{n}(x+i)$. In the first part of the paper, for given $n$, we study the existence of integer solutions of the Diophantine equation $$ y^m=p_{n}(x)+\sum_{i=1}^{k}p_{a_{i}}(x), $$…

The two Fresnel Integrals are real and imaginary part of the integral over complex-valued exp(ix^2) as a function of the upper limit. They are special cases of the integrals over x^m*exp(i*x^n) for integer powers m and n, which are…

For an odd prime $p$, let $\mathrm{E}_{p}(X)=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a_{n}X^{n}\in\mathbb{F}_p[[X]]$ denote the reduction modulo $p$ of the Artin-Hasse exponential series. It is known that there exists a series $G(X^p)\in \mathbb{F}_{p}[[X]]$,…

Let m>=1 be an arbitrary fixed integer and let N_m(x) count the number of odd integers u<=x such that the order of 2 modulo u is not divisible by m. In case m is prime estimates for N_m(x) were given by H. Mueller that were subsequently…

For any positive integer $n$, let $f(n)$ denote the number of solutions to the Diophantine equation $\frac{4}{n} = \frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{y} + \frac{1}{z}$ with $x,y,z$ positive integers. The \emph{Erd\H{o}s-Straus conjecture} asserts that…

We propose to associate to a modular form (an infinite number of) complex valued functions on the $p$-adic numbers $\mathbb{Q}_p$ for each prime $p$. We elaborate on the correspondence and study its consequence in terms of the Mellin…

In the first paper under this title (1977), the first author utilized a duality identity between the largest and smallest prime factors involving the Moebius function, to establish the following result as a consequence of the Prime Number…

Let $p$ be a prime number. Continuing and extending our previous paper with the same title, we prove explicit rates of overconvergence for modular functions of the form $\frac{E_k^{\ast}}{V(E_k^{\ast})}$ where $E_k^{\ast}$ is a classical,…

Let {A} be a system of operators. With any element x we associate the set of elements {Ax}. We study conditions under which there exists an element x such that the sum of p-th powers of norms of the elements {Ax} is equal to infinity.

We show that an elliptic modular form with integral Fourier coefficients in a number field $K$, for which all but finitely many coefficients are divisible by a prime ideal $\frak{p}$ of $K$, is a constant modulo $\frak{p}$. A similar…

For a prime $p$, let $c(p)$ denote the limiting fraction of $n\times n$ matrices over $\mathbb{F}_p$ whose determinant is a primitive root modulo $p$. The quantity $c(p)$ is a natural multiplicative deformation of the totient ratio…

We prove that the sequence $n!\,(\bmod\,p)$ occupies at least $\sqrt{\frac{3}{2}N}$ residue classes in the short interval $H\le n \le H+N$ and $N\gg p^{\frac{1}{4}}$ improving previously known trivial bound $\sqrt{N}.$ In the other…

Let $f(n)$ be the number of distinct exponents in the prime factorization of the natural number $n$. We prove some results about the distribution of $f(n)$. In particular, for any positive integer $k$, we obtain that $$ \#\{n \leq x : f(n)…
