In this paper, we study a density version of the Waring-Goldbach problem. Suppose that A is a subset of the primes, and the lower density of A in the primes is larger than 1-1/2k. We prove that every sufficiently large natural number n…

When k > 1 and s is sufficiently large in terms of k, we derive an explicit multi-term asymptotic expansion for the number of representations of a large natural number as the sum of s positive integral k-th powers.

We determine the asymptotic density $\delta_k$ of the set of ordered $k$-tuples $(n_1,...,n_k)\in \N^k, k\ge 2$, such that there exists no prime power $p^a$, $a\ge 1$, appearing in the canonical factorization of each $n_i$, $1\le i\le k$,…

We investigate the existence of representations of every large positive integer as a sum of $k$-th powers of integers represented as certain diagonal forms. In particular, we consider a family of diagonal forms and discuss the problem of…

We obtain an asymptotic formula on the Odlyzko-Stanley enumeration problem. Let $N_m^*(k,b)$ be the number of $k$-subsets $S\subseteq F_p^*$ such that $\sum_{x\in S}x^m=b$. If $m<p^{1-\delta}$, then there is a constant…

Let $k\in \mathbb{N}$ and $s\geq k(\log k+3.20032)$. Let $\mathbb{N}_{0}^{k}$ be the set of $k$-th powers of nonnegative integers. Assume that $\psi$ is an increasing function tending to infinity with $\psi(x)=o(\log x)$ and satifying some…

For $k \geq 2$, we consider the number $A_k(Z)$ of positive integers $n \leq Z$ such that both $n$ and $n+1$ are $k$-free. We prove an asymptotic formula $A_k(Z) = c_k Z + O(Z^{14/(9k)+\epsilon})$, where the error term improves upon…

A natural number is a binary $k$'th power if its binary representation consists of $k$ consecutive identical blocks. We prove an analogue of Waring's theorem for sums of binary $k$'th powers. More precisely, we show that for each integer $k…

We investigate the asymptotic formula for the number of representations of a large positive integer as a sum of $k$-th powers of integers represented as the sums of three positive cubes, counted with multiplicities. We also obtain a lower…

Let $\mathrm{d}(A)$ be the asymptotic density (if it exists) of a sequence of integers $A$. For any real numbers $0\leq\alpha\leq\beta\leq 1$, we solve the question of the existence of a sequence $A$ of positive integers such that…

For $n \geq 3$, an asymptotic formula is derived for the number of representations of a sufficiently large natural number $N$ as a sum of $r = 2^n + 1$ summands, each of which is an $n$-th power of natural numbers $x_i$, $i = \overline{1,…

Waring's problem has a long history in additive number theory. In its original form it deals with the representability of every positive integer as sum of $k$-th powers with integer $k$. Instead of these powers we deal with…

Waring's classical problem deals with expressing every natural number as a sum of g(k) k-th powers. Recently there has been considerable interest in similar questions for nonabelian groups, and simple groups in particular. Here the k-th…

The generalized Waring problem asks exactly which positive integers cannot be expressed as the sum of $j$ positive $k$-th powers? Using computational techniques, this paper refines an approach introduced by Zenkin, establishes results for…

Let $\mu_1, \ldots, \mu_s$ be real numbers, with $\mu_1$ irrational. We investigate sums of shifted $k$th powers $\mathfrak{F}(x_1, \ldots, x_s) = (x_1 - \mu_1)^k + \ldots + (x_s - \mu_s)^k$. For $k \ge 4$, we bound the number of variables…

We give an upper bound for the minimum $s$ with the property that every sufficiently large integer can be represented as the sum of $s$ positive $k$-th powers of integers represented as the sum of three positive cubes for the cases $2\leq…

{The first version of this text was written and submitted to a journal on April, 12, 2018. This second version was submitted on April, 9, 2019.} We investigate the existence of subsets $A$ and $B$ of $\mathbb{N}:=\{0,1,2,\dots\}$ such that…

In this paper, we will present a new iterative construction for the auxiliary equation of Waring's problem, which seems a little simpler than the one of so called "smooth numbers" in papers [4] and [8], and give same upper bounds of G(k) as…

It is an open problem whether $ \binom{2n}{n} $ is divisible by 4 or 9 for all $n>256$. In connection with this, we prove that for a fixed uneven $m$ the asymptotic density of $k$'s such that $ m \nmid \binom{2^{k+1}}{2^{k}} $ is 0. To do…

Let $G(k)$ denote the least number $s$ having the property that every sufficiently large natural number is the sum of at most $s$ positive integral $k$-th powers. Then for all $k\in \mathbb N$, one has \[ G(k)\le \lceil k(\log…
