We study the number of primes with a given primitive root and in an arithmetic progression under the assumption of a suitable form of the generalized Riemann Hypothesis. Previous work of Lenstra, Moree and Stevenhagen has given asymptotics…
Let $\{u_{n}\}_{n \geq 0}$ be a non-degenerate binary recurrence sequence with positive, square-free discriminant and $p$ be a fixed prime number. In this paper, we have shown the finiteness result for the solutions of the Diophantine…
In a previous paper, Rahmani introduced a new family of p-Bernoulli numbers and polynomials by means of the Gauss hypergeometric function. Motivated by this paper and as a degenerate version of those numbers and polynomials, we introduce…
The aim of this expository article is twofold. The first is to introduce several polynomials of one variable as well as two variables defined on the positive integers with values as congruent numbers. The second is to present connections…
In this paper, we introduce the concept of $F$-perfect number, which is a positive integer $n$ such that $\sum_{d|n,d<n}d^2=3n$. We prove that all the $F$-perfect numbers are of the form $n=F_{2k-1}F_{2k+1}$, where both $F_{2k-1}$ and…
We give a new sufficient condition which allows to test primality of Fermat's numbers. This characterization uses uniquely values at most equal to tested Fermat number. The robustness of this result is due to a strict use of elementary…
Dickson conjectured that a set of polynomials will take on infinitely many simultaneous prime values. Later others, such as Hardy and Littlewood, gave estimates for the number of these primes. In this article we look at this conjecture,…
A primorial prime is a prime number of the form $p_n\# \pm 1$ where $p_n\#$ denotes the product of all primes less than or equal to $p_{n}$, the $n$-th prime. We show that the probability along the lines of Mertens' Theorem that either…
In recent years, many authors have studied Changhee and Dae- hee polynomials in connection with many special numbers and polynomials. In this paper, we investigate type 2 Changhee and Daehee numbers and polynomials and give some identities…
Discrete analogs of the Lebedev transforms with the product of the modified Bessel functions are introduced and investigated. Several expansions of suitable functions and sequences in terms of the series and integrals, involving the…
Let $p$ be an odd prime and $e$ be a positive integer. We completely explain the permutation binomials and trinomials arising from the reversed Dickson polynomials of the $(k+1)$-th kind $D_{n,k}(1,x)$ over $\mathbb{F}_{p^e}$ when…
The degenerate Stirling numbers of the second kind and of the first kind, which are respectively degenerate versions of the Stirling numbers of the second kind and of the first kind, appear frequently when we study various degenerate…
It is well known that algebraic power series are differentially finite (D-finite): they satisfy linear differential equations with polynomial coefficients. The converse problem, whether a given D-finite power series is algebraic or…
A distinguishing feature of certain intractable problems in prime number theory is the sparsity of the underlying sequence. Motivated by the general problem of finding primes in sparse polynomial sequences, we give an estimate for the…
We get some results about the factorization of $\phi_p(M) \in {\mathbb{F}}_2[x]$, where $p$ is a prime number, $\phi_p$ is the corresponding cyclotomic polynomial and $M$ is a Mersenne prime (polynomial). By the way, we better understand…
In this paper, we consider the problem of representing any polynomial in terms of the ordered Bell and degenerate ordered Bell polynomials, and more generally of the higher-order ordered Bell and higher-order degenerate ordered Bell…
The power sum $1^n + 2^n + \cdots + x^n$ has been of interest to mathematicians since classical times. Johann Faulhaber, Jacob Bernoulli, and others who followed expressed power sums as polynomials in $x$ of degree $n+1$ with rational…
The study of degenerate versions of certain special polynomials and numbers, which was initiated by Carlitz's work on degenerate Euler and degenerate Bernoulli polynomials, has recently seen renewed interest among mathematicians. The aim of…
In this paper, two approximation algorithms are given. Let N be an odd composite number. The algorithms give new directions regarding primality test of given N. The first algorithm is given using a new method called digital coding method.…
We study some properties of restricted and associated Fubini numbers. In particular, they have the natural extensions of the original Fubini numbers in the sense of determinants. We also introduce modified Bernoulli and Cauchy numbers and…
