In this paper we prove two results concerning Vinogradov's three primes theorem with primes that can be called almost twin primes. First, for any $m$, every sufficiently large odd integer $N$ can be written as a sum of three primes $p_1,…

The calculation of many and large Perrin pseudoprimes is a challenge. This is mainly due to their rarity. Perrin pseudoprimes are one of the rarest known pseudoprimes. In order to calculate many such large numbers, one needs not only a fast…

In this paper we use refined approximations for Chebyshev's $\vartheta$-function to establish new explicit estimates for the prime counting function $\pi(x)$, which improve the current best estimates for large values of $x$. As an…

Quite recently, in [8] the authoor of this paper considered the distribution of primes in the sequence $(S_n)$ whose $n$th term is defined as $S_n=\sum_{k=1}^{2n}p_k$, where $p_k$ is the $k$th prime. Some heuristic arguments and the…

In this paper we establish some sophisticated congruences involving central binomial coefficients and Fibonacci numbers. For example, we show that if $p\not=2,5$ is a prime then $$\sum_{k=0}^{p-1}F_{2k}\binom{2k}{k}=(-1)^{[p/5]}(1-(p/5))…

We show that every $N \geq 2$ can be written as the sum of positive integers $a$ and $b$ where $\Omega(ab) \leq 40$. The result is obtained through the direct application of an explicit lower bound Selberg sieve along with some computation…

In this note, we show that there are many infinity positive integer values of $n$ in which, the following inequality holds $$ \left\lfloor{1/2}(\frac{(n+1)^2}{\log(n+1)}-\frac{n^2}{\log n})-\frac{\log^2 n}{\log\log…

We show that there exist infinite sets $A = \{a_1,a_2,\dots\}$ and $B = \{b_1,b_2,\dots\}$ of natural numbers such that $a_i+b_j$ is prime whenever $1 \leq i < j$.

We introduce a sieve for counting twin primes up to a given range. Our method depends on a parameter ${\lambda}_x$ and the estimation of the number of twin primes obtained as a result, is called a fundamental structure of the distribution…

A $\textit{square-full}$ number is a positive integer for which all its prime divisors divide itself at least twice. The counting function of square-full integers of the form $f(n)$ for $n\leqslant N$ is denoted by…

A new set of formulas for primes is presented. These formulas are more efficient and grow much slower than the two known formulas of Mills and Wright. 3 new formulas are explained.

We study some divisibility properties of quasiperfect numbers. We show that if $N=(p_1 p_2 \cdots p_t)^{2a}=m^2$ is quasiperfect, then $2a+1$ is divisible by $3$ and $N$ has at least one prime factor smaller than $\exp 716.7944$. Moreover,…

Ferrers diagrams are used to visually represent integer partitions. We describe a way to use Ferrers diagrams to uniquely represent integers in terms of their prime factors. This leads to a lower bound on the number of primes less than a…

A $C^1$ prime indicator $\mathcal{P}\colon\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ is constructed by applying the Fej\'er identity to the sine-quotient encoder of trial division. For integers $n\ge 2$, $\mathcal P(n)=0$ holds exactly for odd primes;…
