This paper is intended as a sequel to a paper arXiv:0803.2636 written by four of the coauthors here. In the paper, they proved a stronger form of the Erd\H{o}s-Mirksy conjecture which states that there are infinitely many positive integers…

Let m>=1 be an arbitrary fixed integer and let N_m(x) count the number of odd integers u<=x such that the order of 2 modulo u is not divisible by m. In case m is prime estimates for N_m(x) were given by H. Mueller that were subsequently…

Letting $L_{n}(N, u)$ denote a polylogarithm ladder of weight $n$ and index $N$ with $u$ as an algebraic number, there is a rich history surrounding how mathematical objects of this form can be constructed for a given weight or index. This…

Let $N$ denote a sufficiently large even integer and $x$ denote a sufficiently large integer, we define $D_{1,2}(N)$ as the number of primes $p$ that such that $N - p$ has at most 2 prime factors. In this paper, we show that $D_{1,2}(N)…

Let phi denote Euler's phi function. For a fixed odd prime we give an asymptotic series expansion in the sense of Poincare for the number E_q(x) of n<=x such that q does not divide phi(n). Thereby we improve on a recent theorem of B.K.…

We develop a new algorithm for factoring a bivariate polynomial $F\in \mathbb{K}[x,y]$ which takes fully advantage of the geometry of the Newton polygon of $F$. Under a non degeneracy hypothesis, the complexity is…

Let $d_k(n)$ denote the $k$-fold divisor function. For a wide range of large $q$ the expected bound $$\sum_{n\leq x\atop {n\equiv a(q)}}d_k(n)-\text { main term }\approx \sqrt {x/q}$$ is shown to be true in an average sense -- for all $k$.…

We show that the distribution function of the first particle in a discrete orthogonal polynomial ensemble can be obtained through a certain recurrence procedure, if the (difference or q-) log-derivative of the weight function is rational.…

A square-free integer is a positive integer that is not divisible by the square of any prime. Merten's function, $M(x)$ is defined as the difference between the number of square free integers with an even number of prime factors and the…

In [1], we give Dickson's conjecture on $N^n$. In this paper, we further give Dickson's conjecture on $Z^n$ and obtain an equivalent form of Green-Tao's conjecture [2]. Based on our work, it is possible to establish a general theory that…

In 1999, Iwan Duursma defined the zeta function for a linear code as a generating function of its Hamming weight enumerator. It can also be defined for other homogeneous polynomials not corresponding to existing codes. If the homogeneous…

We consider several old problems involving the number of prime divisors function $\omega(n)$, as well as the related functions $\Omega(n)$ and $\tau(n)$. Firstly, we show that there are infinitely many positive integers $n$ such that…
