Given a finite set of integers $A$, its sumset is $A+A:= \{a_i+a_j \mid a_i,a_j\in A\}$. We examine $|A+A|$ as a random variable, where $A\subset I_n = [0,n-1]$, the set of integers from 0 to $n-1$, so that each element of $I_n$ is in $A$…

In this paper, we prove the lower bound for the number of balancing non-Wieferich primes in arithmetic progressions. More precisely, for any given integer $r\geq2$ there are $\gg\log x$ balancing non-Wieferich primes $p\leq x$ such that…

Let $\alpha$ be a real number such that $1< \alpha <2$ and let $x_0=x_0(\alpha)$ be a {\rm(}unique{\rm)} positive solution of the equation $$ x^{\alpha-1} -\frac{\pi}{e^2\sqrt{3}}x +1=0. $$ Then we prove that for each positive integer…

An overview of the results of new exhaustive computations of gaps between primes in arithmetic progressions is presented. We also give new numerical results for exceptionally large least primes in arithmetic progressions.

Generating series are crucial in enumerative combinatorics, analytic combinatorics, and combinatorics on words. Though it might seem at first view that generating Dirichlet series are less used in these fields than ordinary and exponential…

Let $p>3$ be a prime and $b\ge 2$ an integer such that $p$ does not divide $b$. Then $1/p$ has a periodic digit expansion with respect to the basis $b$. The length $q$ of the period is the (multiplicative) order of $b$ mod $p$. In the case…

In the paper "An Abelian Loop for Non-Composites" (arXiv:110.14716), we introduced a group-like structure consisting of odd prime numbers and 1, with properties that allowed us to prove analogous results to well known theorems in Number…

Some mean value theorems in the style of Bombieri-Vinogradov's theorem are discussed. They concern binary and ternary additive problems with primes in arithmetic progressions and short intervals. Nontrivial estimates for some of these mean…

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 prove that there is a small but fixed positive integer e such that for every prime larger than a fixed integer, every subset S of the integers modulo p which satisfies |2S|<(2+e)|S| and 2(|2S|)-2|S|+2 < p is contained in an arithmetic…

This is an expository article to accompany my two lectures at the CDM conference. I have used this an excuse to make public two sets of notes I had lying around, and also to put together a short reader's guide to some recent joint work with…

In this report we present an off-the-number-line representation of the positive integers by expressing each integer by its unique prime signature as a grid point of an infinite dimensional space indexed by the prime numbers, which we term…

For two odd primes $p$ and $q$ such that $p<q$, let $A(p,q):=(a_k)_{k=1}^{\infty}$ be the arithmetic progression whose $k$th term is given by $a_k=(k-1)(q-p)+p$ (i.e., with $a_1=p$ and $a_2=q$). Here we conjecture that for every positive…

BBP-type formulas are usually discovered experimentally, one at a time and in specific bases, through computer searches. In this paper, however, we derive directly, without doing any searches, explicit digit extraction BBP-type formulas in…

Let $x,h$ and $Q$ be three parameters. We show that, for most moduli $q\le Q$ and for most positive real numbers $y\le x$, every reduced arithmetic progression $a\mod q$ has approximately the expected number of primes $p$ from the interval…

Computer experiments reveal that twin primes tend to center on nonsquarefree multiples of 6 more often than on squarefree multiples of 6 compared to what should be expected from the ratio of the number of nonsquarefree multiples of 6 to the…

This paper presents a distinctive prime detection approach. This method use GM-(n+1) sequences to effectively eliminate complex numbers. The sequences, which consist of odd a number of (n+1), exclude all components except for the initial…

Let $p_n$ denote the $n$-th prime. For any $m\geq 1$, there exist infinitely many $n$ such that $p_{n}-p_{n-m}\leq C_m$ for some large constant $C_m>0$, and $$p_{n+1}-p_n\geq \frac{c_m\log n\log\log n\log\log\log\log n}{\log\log\log n}, $$…

We show that the set defined by digit restrictions contains arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions if and only if its Assouad dimension is one. Moreover, we show that for any $0\le s\le 1$, there exists some set on $\mathbb{R}$ with…

Ova-angular rotations of a prime number are characterized, constructed using the Dirichlet theorem. The geometric properties arising from this theory are analyzed and some applications are presented, including Goldbach's conjecture, the…
