The well-known necessary and sufficient criteria for the Riemann hypothesis of M. Riesz and Hardy-Littlewood, based on the order of growth at infinity along the positive real axis of certain entire functions, are here imbedded in a general…

This analysis which uses new mathematical methods aims at proving the Riemann hypothesis and figuring out an approximate base for imaginary non-trivial zeros of zeta function at very large numbers, in order to determine the path that those…

Define a natural number $n$ as a \textit{square-full} integer if for every prime $p$ such that $p|n$, we have $p^2|n$. In this paper, we establish an upper bound on the variance of square-full integers in short intervals of an expected…

In the present paper, we adopt a pretentious approach and prove a strongly uniform estimate for the sums of the von Mangoldt function $\Lambda$ on arithmetic progressions. This estimate is analogous to an estimate that Linnik established in…

In this paper we explore a class of equivalence relations over $\N^\ast$ from which is constructed a sequence of symetric matrices related to the Mertens function. From numerical experimentations we suggest a conjecture, about the growth of…

For every regular graph, we define a sequence of integers, using the recursion of the Martin polynomial. This sequence counts spanning tree partitions and constitutes the diagonal coefficients of powers of the Kirchhoff polynomial. We prove…

Let $f$ be a primitive positive definite integral binary quadratic form of discriminant $-D$ and let $\pi_f(x)$ be the number of primes up to $x$ which are represented by $f$. We prove several types of upper bounds for $\pi_f(x)$ within a…

We establish upper bounds for shifted moments of modular $L$-functions to a fixed prime level under the generalized Riemann hypothesis.

Let $P^{\left(\frac 12\right)}(n)$ denote the middle prime factor of $n$ (taking into account multiplicity). More generally, one can consider, for any $\alpha \in (0,1)$, the $\alpha$-positioned prime factor of $n$, $P^{(\alpha)}(n)$. It…

There have been a number of recent works on the theory of period polynomials and their zeros. In particular, zeros of period polynomials have been shown to satisfy a "Riemann Hypothesis" in both classical settings and for cohomological…

We provide the first two examples of sets of generalized Riemann derivatives of orders up to $n$, $n\geq 2$, whose simultaneous existence for all functions~$f$ at~$x$ is equivalent to the existence of the $n$-th Peano derivative…

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…

Under the generalized Riemann hypothesis, we illustrate that the ratio of the set of primes $p$ such that $\langle -1, 2 \rangle$ has an odd prime index in $\mathbb{F}_p^*$ to the set of primes $p$ such that the subgroup has index greater…

We prove that the primes of the form $x^2+y^2+1$ contain arbitrarily long non-trivial arithmetic progressions.

We give several characterizations of Mersenne primes (Theorem 1.1) and of primes for which 2 is a primitive root (Theorem 1.2). These characterizations involve group algebras, circulant matrices, binomial coefficients, and bipartite graphs.

The most general change of variables theorem for the Riemann integral of functions of a single variable has been published in 1961 (by Kestelman). In this theorem, the substitution is made by an `indefinite integral', that is, by a function…

In this paper we provide a detailed proof of the second variation formula, essentially due to Richard Hamilton, Tom Ilmanen and the first author, for Perelman's $\nu$-entropy. In particular, we correct an error in the stability operator…

We investigate the approximation to the number of primes in arithmetic progressions given by Vaughan. Instead of averaging the expected error term over all residue classes to modules in a given range, here we only consider subsets of…

We prove new mean value theorems for primes in arithmetic progressions to moduli larger than $x^{1/2}$. Our main result shows that the primes are equidistributed for a fixed residue class over all moduli of size $x^{1/2+\delta}$ with a…

Green and Tao proved that the primes contains arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions. We show that, essentially the same proof leads to the following result: The primes in an short interval contains many arithmetic progressions of any…
