The convex hull of the subgraph of the prime counting function $x\rightarrow \pi(x)$ is a convex set, bounded from above by a graph of some piecewise affine function $x\rightarrow \epsilon(x)$. The vertices of this function form an infinite…

We prove a generalization of the author's work to show that any subset of the primes which is `well-distributed' in arithmetic progressions contains many primes which are close together. Moreover, our bounds hold with some uniformity in the…

We prove quantitative estimates for averages of the von Mangoldt and M\"obius functions along polynomial progressions $n+P_1(m),\ldots, n+P_k(m)$ for a large class of polynomials $P_i$. The error terms obtained save an arbitrary power of…

For a non-integral real number $c>1$, let $\mathbb{N}_{(c)}:=\{\lfloor n^c\rfloor ~|~ n\in\mathbb{N}\}$. We show that $\mathbb{N}_{(c)}$ contains thin subbases of every order $h\geq 5$ when $1<c<2$, and $h\geq (\lfloor 2c\rfloor+1)(\lfloor…

We establish versions of Szeg\H{o}'s distance formula and Widom's theorem on invertibility of (a family of) Toeplitz operators in a class of finite codimension subalgebras of uniform algebras, obtained by imposing a finite number of linear…

The article presents a generalization of the classical Hardy-Littlewood conjecture concerning the density of prime tuples to the case of tuples consisting of almost-prime numbers (numbers with a specified quantity of prime divisors). The…

We prove that in every ring of generalised power series with non-positive real exponents and coefficients in a field of characteristic zero, every series admits a factorisation into finitely many irreducibles of infinite support, the number…

Let $K/\mathbb{Q}$ be an algebraic extension of fields, and let $\alpha \not= 0$ be contained in an algebraic closure of $K$. If $\alpha$ can be approximated by roots of numbers in $K^{\times}$ with respect to the Weil height, we prove that…

In this article, we obtain upper bounds on the number of irreducible factors of some classes of polynomials having integer coefficients, which in particular yield some of the well known irreducibility criteria. For devising our results, we…

Let $v\geq 2$ be a fixed integer, and let $x \geq 1$ and $z \geq x$ be large numbers. The exact asymptotic formula for the number of Wieferich primes $p$ such that $ v^{p-1} \equiv 1 \bmod p^2$ in the short interval $[x,x+z]$ is proposed in…

We show that certain products of Whittaker functions and Schwartz functions on a general linear group extend to Whittaker functions on a larger general linear group. This generalizes results of Cogdell--Piatetski-Shapiro \cite{CPS} and…

The Piatetski-Shapiro sequences are of the form $\mathcal{N}_{c} := (\lfloor n^{c} \rfloor)_{n=1}^\infty$, where $\lfloor \cdot \rfloor$ is the integer part. It is expected that there are infinitely many primes in a Piatetski-Shapiro…

In this paper we extend some set theoretic concepts of numerical semigroups for arbitrary sub-semigroups of natural numbers. Then we characterized gapsets which leads to a more efficient computational approach towards numerical semigroups…

We introduce a wide class of deterministic subsets of primes of zero relative density and we prove Roth's Theorem in these sets, namely, we show that any subset of them with positive relative upper density contains infinitely many…

We study certain aspects of the Selberg sieve, in particular when sifting by rather thin sets of primes. We derive new results for the lower bound sieve suited especially for this setup and we apply them in particular to give a new…

In this note we investigate the problem of determining elements of the Selberg class from their Dirichlet series coefficients at the primes. We show that this is possible when the degree is one, but in general need an additional weak…

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 an alphabet $S$, we consider the size of the subsets of the full sequence space $S^{\rm {\bf Z}}$ determined by the additional restriction that $x_i\not=x_{i+f(n)},\ i\in {\rm {\bf Z}},\ n\in {\rm {\bf N}}.$ Here $f$ is a positive,…

A survey of recent results in elementary number theory is presented in this paper. Special attention is given to structure and asymptotic properties of certain families of positive integers.

We intend to contribute to the Collatz dynamics problem by seeking to analyze the Collatz conjecture from the tree of numbers sequences. First, we show numerically that the distribution of odd numbers has an initial transient, and proceeds…
