Let $p>3$ be a prime, and let $q_p(2)=(2^{p-1}-1)/p$ be the Fermat quotient of $p$ to base 2. Recently, Z. H. Sun proved that \sum_{k=1}^{p-1}\frac{1}{k\cdot 2^k}\equiv q_p(2)-\frac{p}{2}q_p(2)^2 \pmod{p^2} which is a generalization of a…

Building on work of Zhi-Hong Sun, we establish congruences for the special harmonic numbers $H_\lfloor p/9 \rfloor$ and $H_{\lfloor p/18 \rfloor}$ modulo $p$, which contain respectively three and four distinct arithmetic components. We also…

We show that for any $\varepsilon > 0$ and a sufficiently large cube-free $q$, any reduced residue class modulo $q$ can be represented as a product of $14$ integers from the interval $[1, q^{1/4e^{1/2} + \varepsilon}]$. The length of the…

We solve the diophantine equations x^4 + d y^2 = z^p for d=2 and d=3 and any prime p>349 and p>131 respectively. The method consists in generalizing the ideas applied by Frey, Ribet and Wiles in the solution of Fermat's Last Theorem, and by…

It is shown that the quartic Fermat equation $x^4 +y^4=1$ has nontrivial integral solutions in the Hilbert class field $\Sigma$ of any quadratic field $K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-d})$ whose discriminant satisfies $-d \equiv 1$ (mod 8). A corollary…

In the paper one proves a necessary condition for divisibility of integral elements by the powers of prime divisor of unramifed prime ideal and gives its application to a simple proof of Fermat's Last Theorem.

We give new proofs of two basic results in number theory: The law of quadratic reciprocity and the sign of the Gauss sum. We show that these results are encoded in the relation between the discrete Fourier transform and the action of the…

This work contains two papers: the first published in 2022 and entitled "On the nature of some Euler's double equations equivalent to Fermat's last theorem" provides a marvellous proof through the so-called discordant forms of appropriate…

We extend the Main Theorem of Aschbacher and Smith on Quillen's Conjecture from $p>5$ to the remaining odd primes $p = 3,5$. In the process, we develop further combinatorial and homotopical methods for studying the poset of nontrivial…

It is proved that the Hilbert class field of a real quadratic field ${\Bbb Q}(\sqrt{D})$ modulo a power $m$ of the conductor $f$ is generated by the Fourier coefficients of the Hecke eigenform for a congruence subgroup of level $fD$.

It is an original method based on systems of prameters represented by reals which obey to an infinite descent (convergent sequences). We define calculus of quotients and they conduct quickly to a consequent result. Our own scepticism made…

We prove, in particular, the well--known Zaremba conjecture from the theory of continued fractions for any prime denominator. More precisely, we show, firstly, that under some mild conditions, for any sufficiently large $q$, there exists…

It is well known that for any prime $p\equiv 3$ (mod $4$), the class numbers of the quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{p})$ and $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-p})$, $h(p)$ and $h(-p)$ respectively, are odd. It is natural to ask whether there is a…

Fermat's Last theorem (FLT) famously states that the equation $x^n+y^n=z^n$ has no solution in positive integers $x, y, z$ for any integer exponent $n>2$. But does this theorem have a quantitative version? Upon initial investigation we…
