In 1975 Szemer\'edi proved that a set of integers of positive upper density contains arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions. Bergelson and Leibman showed in 1996 that the common difference of the arithmetic progression can be a square, a…
It is shown that there exists a duality among fields. If a field is dual to another field, the solution of the field can be obtained from the dual field by the duality transformation. We give a general result on the dual fields. Different…
We compare three different characterizations, due respectively to R. Dedekind, K. Uchida, and H. L\"uneburg, of when $\mathbb Z[\theta]$ is the ring of integers of $\mathbb Q(\theta)$, and apply our results to some concrete $2$-towers of…
There exists an absolute constant $\delta > 0$ such that for all $q$ and all subsets $A \subseteq \mathbb{F}_q$ of the finite field with $q$ elements, if $|A| > q^{2/3 - \delta}$, then \[ |(A-A)(A-A)| = |\{ (a -b) (c-d) : a,b,c,d \in A\}| >…
Let $G$ consist of all functions $g \colon \omega \to [0,\infty)$ with $g(n) \to \infty$ and $\frac{n}{g(n)} \nrightarrow 0$. Then for each $g\in G$ the family $\mathcal{Z}_g=\{A\subseteq\omega:\ \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{\text{card}(A\cap…
An positive even number is said to be a Kronecker number if it can be written in infinitely many ways as the difference between two primes, and it is believed that all even numbers are Kronecker numbers. We will study the division and…
We quantify the density of rational points in the unit sphere $S^n$, proving analogues of the classical theorems on the embedding of $\q^n$ into $\r^n$. Specifically, we prove a Dirichlet theorem stating that every point $\alpha \in S^n$ is…
Let $\mathbb{F}_p$ be a finite field of prime order $p$ and let $A \subset \mathbb{F}_p$ be a subset. In the dense regime when $|A| \geq \alpha p$ for some $\alpha \in (0,1)$, we determine the optimal constant $f(\alpha)$ in the inequality…
In this paper we determine the asymptotic density of coprime fractions in those of the reduced fractions of number fields. When ordered by norms of denominators, we count a fraction as soon as it ``appears'' for the first time and no later.…
The goal of this paper is to give a relatively simple proof of some known zero density estimates for Riemann zeta function which are sufficiently strong to break the density hypothesis in a nontrivial part of the critical strip. Apart from…
In a previous it was shown that the Dedkind sums $12s(m,n)$ and $12s(x,n)$, $1\le m,x\le n$, $(m,n)=(x,n)=1$, are equal mod $\Z$ if, and only if, $(x-m)(xm-1)\equiv 0$ mod $n$. Here we determine the cardinality of numbers $x$ in the above…
The Bernstein approximation problem is to determine whether or not the space of all polynomials is dense in a given weighted $C_0$-space on the real line. A theorem of L. de Branges characterizes non--density by existence of an entire…
We consider the question "Is every nonzero generic degree a density-1-bounding generic degree?" By previous results \cite{I2} either resolution of this question would answer an open question concerning the structure of the generic degrees:…
It is shown that the sum of class numbers of orders in totally complex quartic fields with no real quadratic subfield obeys an asymptotic law similar to the prime numbers, as the bound on the regulators tends to infinity. Here only orders…
A good edge-labelling of a simple graph is a labelling of its edges with real numbers such that, for any ordered pair of vertices (u,v), there is at most one nondecreasing path from u to v. Say a graph is good if it admits a good…
We show that every henselian valued field $L$ of residue characteristic 0 admits a proper subfield $K$ which is dense in $L$. We present conditions under which this can be taken such that $L|K$ is transcendental and $K$ is henselian. These…
In this paper, we prove some new thickness theorems with partial derivatives. We give some applications. First, we give a simple criterion that can judge whether two scaled Cantor sets have non-empty intersection. Second, we prove under…
Let $k$ be an integer which is the difference between prime numbers infinitely often. It is known that there are infinitely many such $k$ and, in this paper, we give a new unconditional proof that these $k$ have positive density and improve…
We prove that for every $\epsilon>0$ there exists $\delta>0$ such that the following holds. Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a collection of $n$ curves in the plane such that there are at most $(\frac{1}{4}-\epsilon)\frac{n^{2}}{2}$ pairs of curves…
This paper provides a probabilist point of view about some results in analytic number theory. The main tool is the family of Zeta laws, which is a consolation for the non-existence of an uniform law on the set of integers. We prove the…
