We show that for large integers $n$, whose ratios of consecutive divisors are bounded above by an arbitrary constant, the number of prime factors follows an approximate normal distribution, with mean $C \log_2 n$ and variance $V \log_2 n$,…
The Erd\H{o}s-Kac theorem is a celebrated result in number theory which says that the number of distinct prime factors of a uniformly chosen random integer satisfies a central limit theorem. In this paper, we establish the large deviations…
In this paper, we study the linear independence between the distribution of the number of prime factors of integers and that of the largest prime factors of integers. Respectively, under a restriction on the largest prime factors of…
Let $x\geqslant 3$, for $1\leqslant n \leqslant x$ an integer, let $\omega(n)$ be its number of distinct prime factors. We show that, among the values $n\leqslant x$ with $\omega(n)=k$ where $1\leqslant k \ll \log_2 x$, $\omega(n-1)$…
The Erdos-Kac theorem, a foundational result in probabilistic number theory, states that the number of prime factors of an integer follows a Gaussian distribution. In this paper we develop and analyze probabilistic models for "random…
Given a natural number $n$, let $\omega\left(n\right)$ denote the number of distinct prime factors of $n$, let $Z$ denote a standard normal variable, and let $P_{n}$ denote the uniform distribution on $\left\{ 1,\ldots,n\right\} $. The…
Transforming the Erd\H{o}s-Kac theorem provides more flexibility in how the theorem can be utilized as an interval estimate for the prime omega function, which counts the number of distinct prime divisors. Here, we consider a direct…
The celebrated Erd\H{o}s--Kac theorem says, roughly speaking, that the values of additive functions satisfying certain mild hypotheses are normally distributed. In the intervening years, similar normal distribution laws have been shown to…

We investigate the number of prime factors of individual entries for matrices in the special linear group over the integers. We show that, when properly normalised, it satisfies a central limit theorem of Erd\H{o}s-Kac-type. To do so, we…
We give a relatively easy proof of the Erd\H os-Kac theorem via computing moments. We show how this proof extends naturally in a sieve theory context, and how it leads to several related results in the literature.
We prove an Erd\H{o}s-Kac type of theorem for the set $S(x,y)=\{n\leq x: p|n \Rightarrow p\leq y \}$. If $\omega (n)$ is the number of prime factors of $n$, we prove that the distribution of $\omega(n)$ for $n \in S(x,y)$ is Gaussian for a…
Let $\omega(n)$ denote the number of distinct prime factors of a natural number $n$. In 1940, Erd\H{o}s and Kac established that $\omega(n)$ obeys the Gaussian distribution over natural numbers. In 2004, the third author generalized their…
In 2020, Bergelson and Richter gave a dynamical generalization of the classical Prime Number Theorem, which has been generalized by Loyd in a disjoint form with the Erd\H{o}s-Kac Theorem. These generalizations reveal the rich ergodic…
Let $s(n)=\sum_{d\mid n,~d<n} d$ denote the sum of the proper divisors of $n$. The second-named author proved that $\omega(s(n))$ has normal order $\log\log{n}$, the analogue for $s$-values of a classical result of Hardy and Ramanujan. We…
We show that the Erd\H{o}s-Kac theorem is valid in almost all intervals $\left[x,x+h\right]$ as soon as $h$ tends to infinity with $x$. We also show that for all $k$ near $\log\log x$, almost all interval $\left[x,x+\exp\left(\left(\log\log…
Given a variety over $\mathbb{Q}$, we study the distribution of the number of primes dividing the coordinates as we vary an integral point. Under suitable assumptions, we show that this has a multivariate normal distribution. We generalise…

We investigate the behaviour of a certain additive function depending on prime divisors of specific integers lying in large gaps between consecutive primes. The result is obtained by a combination of results and ideas related to large gaps…
