Let $c$ be a fixed integer such that $c \in \{0,2\}.$ Let $n$ be a positive integer such that either $n\geq 2$ or $2n+1 \neq 3^u$ for any integer $u\geq 2$ according as $c = 0$ or not. Let $\phi(x)$ belonging to $\mathbb{Z}[x]$ be a monic…
The Bergelson-Leibman theorem states that if P_1, ..., P_k are polynomials with integer coefficients, then any subset of the integers of positive upper density contains a polynomial configuration x+P_1(m), ..., x+P_k(m), where x,m are…
In a recent paper, Bary-Soroker, Koukoulopoulos and Kozma proved that when $A$ is a random monic polynomial of $\mathbb{Z}[X]$ of deterministic degree $n$ with coefficients $a_j$ drawn independently according to measures $\mu_j,$ then $A$…
Schinzel and W\'ojcik have shown that if $\alpha, \beta$ are rational numbers not $0$ or $\pm 1$, then $\mathrm{ord}_p(\alpha)=\mathrm{ord}_p(\beta)$ for infinitely many primes $p$, where $\mathrm{ord}_p(\cdot)$ denotes the order in…
It is proven that, in any given base, there are infinitely many palindromic numbers having at most six prime divisors, each relatively large. The work involves equidistribution estimates for the palindromes in residue classes to large…
We find arbitrarily large configurations of irreducible polynomials over finite fields that are separated by low degree polynomials. Our proof adapts an argument of Pintz from the integers, in which he combines the methods of…
The appearance of primes in a family of linear recurrence sequences labelled by a positive integer $n$ is considered. The terms of each sequence correspond to a particular class of Lehmer numbers, or (viewing them as polynomials in $n$)…
In paper on a classification of Lehmer triples, Juricevic conjectured that there are infinitely many primes of special form. We disprove one of his conjectures and consider the other one.
An s-tuple of positive integers are k-wise relatively prime if any k of them are relatively prime. Exact formula is obtained for the probability that s positive integers are k-wise relatively prime.
We show that $0,1$-polynomials of high degree and few terms are irreducible with high probability. Formally, let $k\in\mathbb{N}$ and $F(x)=1+\sum_{i=1}^kx^{n_i}$, where $ 0<n_1<\cdots<n_k\leq N. $ Then we show that…
The 1987 Bourgain-Tzafriri Restricted Invertibility Theorem is one of the most celebrated theorems in analysis. At the time of their work, the authors raised the question of a possible infinite dimensional version of the theorem. In this…
In this note we consider the links of prime ideals of certain skew polynomial rings and prove our main theorem, namely theorem [5], which states the following.Let R be a noetherian ring that is link k-symmetric and let {\sigma} be an…
It is shown that a polynomial map $(P,Q)\in \mathbb{Q}[x,y]^2$ with $P_xQ_y-P_yQ_x \equiv 1$ has an inverse map in $\mathbb{Q}[x,y]^2$ if the fiber $P=0$ contains an infinite subset of $ d^{-1}\mathbb{Z}^2$ for an integer $d$.
Let $D$ be a Krull domain admitting a prime element with finite residue field and let $K$ be its quotient field. We show that for all positive integers $k$ and $1 < n_1 \leq \ldots \leq n_k$ there exists an integer-valued polynomial on $D$,…
We adopt A. J. Irving's sieve method to study the almost-prime values produced by products of irreducible polynomials evaluated at prime arguments. This generalizes the previous results of Irving and Kao, who separately examined the…
Given an ideal of forms in an algebra (polynomial ring, tensor algebra, exterior algebra, Lie algebra, bigraded polynomial ring), we consider the Hilbert series of the factor ring. We concentrate on the minimal Hilbert series, which is…
It is known that there are infinitely-many prime numbers which take the form of a polynomial of degree one with integer coefficients, this is Dirichlet's theorem. We use an elementary sieving argument together with bounds on the prime…
Given integers $\ell > m >0$, we define monic polynomials $X_n$, $Y_n$, and $Z_n$ with the property that $\mu$ is a zero of $X_n$ if and only if the triple $(\mu,\mu+m,\mu+\ell)$ satisfies $x^n + y^n = z^n$. It is shown that the…
Motivated by a question of van der Poorten about the existence of infinite chain of prime numbers (with respect to some base), in this paper we advance the study of sequences of consecutive polynomials whose coefficients are chosen…
Starting with Zhang's theorem on the infinitude of prime doubles, we give an inductive argument that there exists an infinite number of prime $k$-tuples for at least one admissible set $\mathcal{H}_k=\{h_1,\ldots,h_k\}$ for each $k$.
