A long-standing conjecture states that every positive integer other than 15, 22, 23, 50, 114, 167, 175, 186, 212, 231, 238, 239, 303, 364, 420, 428, 454 is a sum of at most seven positive cubes. This was first observed by Jacobi in 1851 on…

By creating a new method, the author proved the well-known world's baffling problems Goldbach conjecture, twin primes conjecture, the Proposition (C) and the Proposition $n^2+1$.

Let $\mathcal{P}_r$ denote an almost-prime with at most $r$ prime factors, counted according to multiplicity. Suppose that $a$ and $q$ are positive integers satisfying $(a,q)=1$. Denote by $\mathcal{P}_2(a,q)$ the least almost-prime…

We classify primitive integer solutions to x^2 + y^3 = z^10. The technique is to combine modular methods at the prime 5, number field enumeration techniques in place of modular methods at the prime 2, Chabauty techniques for elliptic curves…

Under Cram\'er's conjecture concerning the prime numbers, we prove that for any $x>1$, there exists a real $A=A(x)>1$ for which the formula $[A^{n^x}]$ (where $[]$ denotes the integer part) gives a prime number for any positive integer $n$.…

Let $2< a<b$ be two relatively prime integers and $g=ab-a-b$. It is proved that there exists at least one prime $p\le g$ of the form $p=ax+by~(x,y\in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge 0})$, which confirms a 2020 conjecture of Ram\'{\i}rez Alfons\'{\i}n and…

We introduce a family of nonnegative integer vectors - primitive vectors - defining hyperplanes of the real affine cube over $C^n:=\{-1,1\}^n$ and study their properties with respect to the rectangles of the cube. As a consequence we give a…

Refining an estimate of Croot, Dobbs, Friedlander, Hetzel and Pappalardi, we show that for all $k \geq 2$, the number of integers $1 \leq a \leq n$ such that the equation $a/n = 1/m_1 + \dotsc + 1/m_k$ has a solution in positive integers…

For an integer $b\geq 2$, a positive integer is called a $b$-Niven number if it is a multiple of the sum of the digits in its base-$b$ representation. In this article, we show that every arithmetic progression contains infinitely many…

Let $1<c<\frac{1787}{1502}$ and $N$ be a sufficiently large real number. In this paper, it is proved that for any arbitrarily large number $E>0$ and for almost all real $R \in (N,2N]$, the Diophantine inequality…

Let $k$ be a positive integer, and let $a,b$ be coprime positive integers with $\min\{a,b\}>1$. In this paper, using a combination of some elementary number theory techniques with classical results on the Nagell-Ljunggren equation, the…

It is proved that all sufficiently large integers $n$ can be represented as $$n=x_1^2+x_2^3+\cdots+x_{13}^{14},$$ where $x_1,\ldots,x_{13}$ are positive integers. This improves upon the current record with $14$ variables in place of $13$.

Let $P^+(n)$ denote the largest prime factor of the integer $n$ and $P_y^+(n)$ denote the largest prime factor $p$ of $n$ which satisfies $p\leqslant y$. In this paper, firstly we show that the triple consecutive integers with the two…

Let $a,b>0$ be coprime integers. Assuming a conjecture on Hecke eigenvalues along binary cubic forms, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of primes of the form $ax^2+by^3$ with $x \leq X^{1/2}$ and $y \leq X^{1/3}$. The proof…

We consider the number of solutions in positive integers $(x,y,z)$ for the purely exponential Diophantine equation $a^x+b^y =c^z$ (with $\gcd(a,b)=1$). Apart from a list of known exceptions, a conjecture published in 2016 claims that this…

In this paper, we gave solutions of the Diophantine equations 16^{x}+p^{y}=z^{2}, 64^{x}+p^{y}=z^{2} where p is an odd prime, n is a positive integer and x,y,z are non-negative integers. Finally we gave a generalization of the Diophantine…

Let $X$ be a large parameter. We will first give a new estimate for the integral moments of primes in short intervals of the type $(p,p+h]$, where $p\leq X$ is a prime number and $h=\odi{X}$. Then we will apply this to prove that for every…

We show that integer partitions, the fundamental building blocks in additive number theory, detect prime numbers in an unexpected way. Answering a question of Schneider, we show that the primes are the solutions to special equations in…
