Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis we obtain asymptotic estimates for the mean value of the number of representations of an integer as a sum of two primes. By proving a corresponding Omega-term, we prove that our result is essentially the best…

Two conjectures, posed by Finch-Smith, Harrington, and Wong in a paper published in Integers in $2023$, are proven. Given a monic biquadratic polynomial $f(x) = x^4 + cx^2 + e$, we prove a formula for the sum of its distinct outputs modulo…

Let $p\equiv 1 \pmod{4}$ be a prime. Write $t = \prod_{x=1}^{(p-1)/2}x$. Since $t ^2\equiv -1 \pmod{p}$ , we can divide $\{1,2,\ldots,(p-1)/2\}$ into $(p-1)/4$ ordered pairs so that each pair, say $<a,\tilde{a}>$ , satisfies that $t a…

In this paper we confirm a conjecture of Sun which states that each positive integer is a sum of a square, an odd square and a triangular number. Given any positive integer m, we show that p=2m+1 is a prime congruent to 3 modulo 4 if and…

We consider a binary quadratic variant of the Titchmarsh divisor problem and give an asymptotic formula for $\sum_{p^2+q^2\leq N} \tau(p^2+q^2+1)$, where $p,q$ are primes.

We show that double sums of the form $$ \sum_{i,j=-n} ^{n} |i^sj^t(i^k-j^k)^\beta| \binom {2n} {n+i} \binom {2n} {n+j} $$ can always be expressed in terms of a linear combination of just four functions, namely $\binom {4n}{2n}$, ${\binom…

We express a general multiple polylogarithm of weight n as an explicit linear combination of multiple polylogarithms of weight n in n-2 variables. We express a general multiple polylogarithm of weight 4 as an explicit linear combination of…

By the Gottesman-Knill Theorem, the outcome probabilities of Clifford circuits can be computed efficiently. We present an alternative proof of this result for quopit Clifford circuits (i.e., Clifford circuits on collections of $p$-level…

The $p$-widths are a nonlinear analogue of the spectrum of the Laplacian. We prove that each $p$-width of a polygon in $\mathbb{R}^2$ is achieved by a union of billiard trajectories. We also compute the $p$-widths of the equilateral…

Let $p$ be an odd prime. Define the Gaussian power sum \[ G_n(p)=\sum_{a=1}^{p-1}\sum_{b=1}^{p-1}(a+bi)^n\in\mathbb Z[i]. \] We determine $G_p(p)$ modulo high powers of $p$: if $p\equiv 1\pmod 4$ then $$G_p(p)\equiv p^2(1+i)\pmod{p^3},$$…

Estimates are provided for $s$th moments of cubic smooth Weyl sums, when $4\le s\le 8$, by enhancing the author's iterative method that delivers estimates beyond classical convexity. As a consequence, an improved lower bound is presented…
