For each of the functions $f \in \{\phi, \sigma, \omega, \tau\}$ and every natural number $k$, we show that there are infinitely many solutions to the inequalities $f(p_n-1) < f(p_{n+1}-1) < \dots < f(p_{n+k}-1)$, and similarly for…

Let $g(n)$ be the largest positive integer $k$ such that there are distinct primes $p_i$ for $1\leq i\leq k$ so that $p_i |n+i$. This function is related to a celebrated conjecture of C.A. Grimm. We establish upper and lower bounds for…

In this paper, we develop a novel analytic method to prove the prime number theorem in de la Vall\'ee Poussin's form: $$ \pi(x)=\operatorname{li}(x)+\mathcal O(xe^{-c\sqrt{\log x}}) $$ Instead of performing asymptotic expansion on Chebyshev…

This paper gives an explicit version of Selberg's 1943 mean-value estimate for the prime number theorem in intervals under the Riemann hypothesis. Two applications are given: for primes in short intervals, and Goldbach numbers (sums of two…

In this paper, given a topological space $X$, an interval $I\subseteq {\bf R}$ and five continuous functions $\varphi, \psi, \omega :X\to {\bf R}$, $\alpha, \beta:I\to {\bf R}$, we are interested in the infimum of the function $\Phi:X\to…

We show that a differential version of the classical Chebyshev-Markov-Stieltjes inequalities holds for a broad family of weight functions. Such a differential version appears to be new. Our results apply to weight functions which are…

By using Beta Dirichlet series and then Eisenstein series we ca represent primes with first a good approximation and an exact expression. This can be done with arbitrary prime (up to 10^101).

We obtain a lower bound for a number of primes in tuples. As applications, we obtain a lower bound for the Romanoff type representation functions.

We consider random multiplicative functions taking the values $\pm 1$. Using Stein's method for normal approximation, we prove a central limit theorem for the sum of such multiplicative functions in appropriate short intervals.

In this paper we present some observations about the well-known Goldbach conjecture. In particular we list and interpret some numerical results which allow us to formulate a relation between prime numbers and even integers. We can also…

Let $\left[x\right]$ be the largest integer not exceeding $x$. For $0<\theta \leq 1$, let $\pi_{\theta}(x)$ denote the number of integers $n$ with $1 \leq n \leq x^{\theta}$ such that $\left[\frac{x}{n}\right]$ is prime and…
