We will generalize the combinatorial algorithms for computing $\pi(x)$ to compute sums ${F(x) = \sum_{p \leq x} p^k}$ for $k \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}$. The detailed exposition of algorithms is included along with implementation details.

We show that every sufficiently large integer is a sum of a prime and two almost prime squares, and also a sum of a smooth number and two almost prime squares. The number of such representations is of the expected order of magnitude. We…

We derive and prove an explicit formula for the sum of the fractional parts of certain geometric series. Although the proof is straightforward, we have been unable to locate any reference to this result. This summation formula allows us to…

The \emph{sum-product phenomenon} predicts that a finite set $A$ in a ring $R$ should have either a large sumset $A+A$ or large product set $A \cdot A$ unless it is in some sense "close" to a finite subring of $R$. This phenomenon has been…

Determining if a symmetric function is Schur-positive is a prevalent and, in general, a notoriously difficult problem. In this paper we study the Schur-positivity of a family of symmetric functions. Given a partition \lambda, we denote by…

We define the finite number ring ${\Bbb Z}_n [\sqrt [m] r]$ where $m,n$ are positive integers and $r$ in an integer akin to the definition of the Gaussian integer ${\Bbb Z}[i]$. This idea is also introduced briefly in [7]. By definition,…

In this work we consider sums of primes that converging very slow. We set as a base, a reformulation of analytic prime number theorem and we use the values of Riemann Zeta function for the approximation. We also give the truncation error of…

We know that any prime number of form $4s+1$ can be written as a sum of two perfect square numbers. As a consequence of Goldbach's weak conjecture, any number great than $10$ can be represented as a sum of four primes. We are motivated to…

We consider a generalized Gauss sum supported on matrices over a number field. We evaluate this Gauss sum and relate it to the number of totally isotropic subspaces of related quadratic spaces. Then we consider a further generalization of…

We express some general type of infinite series such as $$ \sum^\infty_{n=1}\frac{F(H_n^{(m)}(z),H_n^{(2m)}(z),\ldots,H_n^{(\ell m)}(z))} {(n+z)^{s_1}(n+1+z)^{s_2}\cdots (n+k-1+z)^{s_k}}, $$ where $F(x_1,\ldots,x_\ell)\in\mathbb…

This article establishes a new upper bound on the function $\sigma^{*}(n)$, the sum of all coprime divisors of $n$. The article concludes with two questions concerning this function.

It is known that the sum of the reciprocal of integers, $\sum_n (1/n)$, and the sum of the reciprocal of primes, $\sum_n (1/p_n)$, both diverge. Here, we study a series made from primes that sums exactly to 1. We also show this sum is…

This short note provides a sharper upper bound of a well known inequality for the sum of divisors function. This is a problem in pure mathematics related to the distribution of prime numbers. Furthermore, the technique is completely…

Balancing numbers possess, as Fibonacci numbers, a Binet formula. Using this, partial sums of arbitrary powers of balancing numbers can be summed explicitly. For this, as a first step, a power $B_n^l$ is expressed as a linear combination of…
