Given positive integers $a_1,\ldots,a_k$, we prove that the set of primes $p$ such that $p \not\equiv 1 \bmod{a_i}$ for $i=1,\ldots,k$ admits asymptotic density relative to the set of all primes which is at least $\prod_{i=1}^k…
Let $A=\{a_0,a_1,\ldots,a_{k-1}\}$ be a set of $k$ integers. For any integer $h\ge 1$ and any ordered $k$-tuple of positive integers $\mathbf{r}=(r_0,r_1,\ldots,r_{k-1})$, we define a general $h$-fold sumset, denoted by $h^{(\mathbf{r})}A$,…
It is conjectured that Hadamard matrices exist for all orders $4t$ ($t>0$). However, despite a sustained effort over more than five decades, the strongest overall existence results are asymptotic results of the form: for all odd natural…
Let $k\ge 1$ be an integer. We prove that a suitable asymptotic formula for the average number of representations of integers $n=p_{1}^{k}+p_{2}^{2}+p_{3}^{2}$, where $p_1,p_2,p_3$ are prime numbers, holds in intervals shorter than the ones…
Let $k \geq 1$ be an integer. A set $A \subset \mathbb{Z}$ is a $k$-fold Sidon set if $A$ has only trivial solutions to each equation of the form $c_1 x_1 + c_2 x_2 + c_3 x_3 + c_4 x_4 = 0$ where $0 \leq |c_i | \leq k$, and $c_1 + c_2 + c_3…
Let $A$ be an infinite set of nonnegative integers. For $h \geq 2$, let $hA$ be the set of all sums of $h$ not necessarily distinct elements of $A$. If every sufficiently large integer in the sumset $hA$ has at least two representations,…
In this paper, we discuss P(n), the number of ways in which a given integer n may be written as a sum of primes. In particular, an asymptotic form P_as(n) valid for n towards infinity is obtained analytically using standard techniques of…
Let A be a nonempty finite set of relatively prime positive integers, and let p_A(n) denote the number of partitions of n with parts in A. An elementary arithmetic argument is used to obtain an asymptotic formula for p_A(n).
An integer is a primitive root modulo a prime $p$ if it generates the whole multiplicative group $(\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z})^*$. In 1927 Artin conjectured that an integer $a$ which is not $-1$ or a square is a primitive root for infintely…
The paper presents a discussion on the asymptotic formula for the number of plane partitions of a large positive integer.
For positive integers $d$ and $n$, let $[n]^d$ be the set of all vectors $(a_1,a_2,\dots, a_d)$, where $a_i$ is an integer with $0\leq a_i\leq n-1$. A subset $S$ of $[n]^d$ is called a \emph{Sidon set} if all sums of two (not necessarily…
For a prime p and nonnegative integers n,k, consider the set A_{n,k}^{(p)}={x is in [0,1,...,n]: p^k||binom {n} {x}}. Let the expansion of n+1 in base p be: n+1=alpha_{0} p^{\nu}+alpha_{1}p^{nu-1}+...+alpha_{nu}, where 0<=alpha_{i}<=…
If $A$ is a nonempty subset of an additive group $G$, then the $h$-fold sumset is \[ hA = \{x_1 + \cdots + x_h : x_i \in A_i \text{ for } i=1,2,\ldots, h\}. \] The set $A$ is an $(r,\ell)$-approximate group in $G$ if $A$ is a nonempty…
A_k = {1, a_2, ... a_k} is an h-basis for n if every positive integer not exceeding n can be expressed as the sum of no more than h values a_i. An extremal h-basis A_k is one for which n is as large as possible. Computing extremal bases has…
Let p be a prime number, and let K be a number field. For p=2, assume moreover K totally imaginary. In this note we prove the existence of asymptotically good extensions L{K of cohomological dimension 2 in which infinitely many primes split…
Let $G$ be any group and $A$ be an arbitrary subset of $G$ (not necessarily symmetric and not necessarily containing the identity). The $h$-fold product set of $A$ is defined as $$A^{h} :=\lbrace a_{1}.a_{2}...a_{h} : a_{1},\ldots,a_n \in A…

Let A be an asymptotic basis for N and X a finite subset of A such that A\X is still an asymptotic basis. Farhi recently proved a new batch of upper bounds for the order of A\X in terms of the order of A and a variety of parameters related…
For a given base $g\ge2$, a positive integer is called a palindrome if its base $g$ expansion reads the same backwards as forwards. In this paper, we give an asymptotic formula for the number of relatively prime pairs of palindromes of a…
