In this paper we continue our earlier investigations into the asymptotic behaviour of infinite systems of coupled differential equations. Under the mild assumption that the so-called characteristic function of our system is completely…

We present tables of record (maximal) gaps between densest prime constellations, or k-tuplets. The tables contain all maximal gaps between prime k-tuplets up to 10^15, for each k<=7.

We study the maximum of the random assignment process on rectangular matrices. We derive first-order asymptotics for the expected maximum, prove a law of large numbers under mild tail assumptions, and obtain exponential upper bounds for the…

We prove that there are infinitely often pairs of primes much closer than the average spacing between primes - almost within the square root of the average spacing. We actually prove a more general result concerning the set of values taken…

Let $p_{r+1}-1>n \geq p_r-1$, based on a sequence $\{1,2,3\cdots\ M_r(M_r=p_1p_2\cdots p_r)\}$, we compare the density of coprime numbers and establish a correlation between the proportions of coprime numbers in the ranges from 1 to…

Complex systems are characterized by a huge number of degrees of freedom often interacting in a non-linear manner. In many cases macroscopic states, however, can be characterized by a small number of order parameters that obey stochastic…

This paper investigates the asymptotic behaviour of solutions to certain infinite systems of coupled recurrence relations. In particular, we obtain a characterisation of those initial values which lead to a convergent solution, and for…

The notion of chiral prime concatenations is studied as a recursive construction of prime numbers starting from a seed set and with appropriate blocks to define the primality growth, generation by generation, either from the right or from…

We investigate the problem of the distribution of sums of functions of prime numbers located on an arithmetic progression. This problem is closely related to the problem of the distribution of prime numbers on an arithmetic progression.…

Maximum parsimony distance is a measure used to quantify the dissimilarity of two unrooted phylogenetic trees. It is NP-hard to compute, and very few positive algorithmic results are known due to its complex combinatorial structure. Here we…

Let $p_{k}$ denote the $k$-th prime and $d(p_{k}) = p_{k} - p_{k - 1}$, the difference between consecutive primes. We denote by $N_{\epsilon}(x)$ the number of primes $\leq x$ which satisfy the inequality $d(p_{k}) \leq (\log p_{k})^{2 +…

We study the distribution of spacings between squares modulo q, where q is square-free and highly composite, in the limit as the number of prime factors of q goes to infinity. We show that all correlation functions are Poissonian, which…

We introduce a new probabilistic model of the primes consisting of integers that survive the sieving process when a random residue class is selected for every prime modulus below a specific bound. From a rigorous analysis of this model, we…

The degree of insulation of a prime $p$ is defined as the largest interval around it in which no other prime exists. Based on this, the $n$-th prime $p_{n}$ is said to be insulated if and only if its degree of insulation is higher than its…

In this work we show that the prime distribution is deterministic. Indeed the set of prime numbers P can be expressed in terms of two subsets of N using three specific selection rules, acting on two sets of prime candidates. The prime…

We study the minimal distance between two orbit segments of length n, in a random dynamical system with sufficiently good mixing properties. This problem has already been solved in non-random dynamical system, and on average in random…

t is proved in this paper that there is a fine correlation between the values of $|\zeta(1/2+i\varphi(t)/2)|^4$ and $|\zeta(1/2+it)|^2$ which correspond to two segments with gigantic distance each from other. This new asymptotic formula…

Prime numbers have attracted the attention of mathematiciansand enthusiasts for millenniums due to their simple definition and remarkable properties. In this paper, we study primorial numbers (the product of the first prime numbers) to…

Given functions $f,g: [n] \rightarrow [n]$ do there exist $n$ points $A_1,A_2\ldots A_n$ in some metric space such that $A_{f(i)},A_{g(i)}$ are the points closest and farthest from point $A_i$? In this paper we characterize precisely which…

There has been a growing interest in providing models for multivariate spatial processes. A majority of these models specify a parametric matrix covariance function. Based on observations, the parameters are estimated by maximum likelihood…
