The arithmetic partial derivative (with respect to a prime $p$) is a function from the set of integers that sends $p$ to 1 and satisfies the Leibniz rule. In this paper, we prove that the $p$-adic valuation of the sequence of higher order…
We first introduce the arithmetic subderivative of a positive integer with respect to a non-empty set of primes. This notion generalizes the concepts of the arithmetic derivative and arithmetic partial derivative. More generally, we then…
We investigate the properties of arithmetic differentiation, an attempt to adapt the notion of differentiation to the integers by preserving the Leibniz rule, (ab)' = a'b + ab'. This has proved to be a very rich topic with many different…
We define the derivative of an integer to be the map sending every prime to 1 and satisfying the Leibniz rule. The aim of this article is to calculate the Dirichlet product of this map with a function arithmetic multiplicative.
An arithmetic function $f$ is Leibniz-additive if there is a completely multiplicative function $h_f$, i.e., $h_f(1)=1$ and $h_f(mn)=h_f(m)h_f(n)$ for all positive integers $m$ and $n$, satisfying $$ f(mn)=f(m)h_f(n)+f(n)h_f(m) $$ for all…

The study of prime divisibility plays a crucial role in number theory. The $p$-adic valuation of a number is the highest power of a prime, $p$, that divides that number. Using this valuation, we construct $p$-adic valuation trees to…
We introduce $p$-derivations and give a few basic ways in which they act like derivatives by numbers.
In this paper, we will show that the $p$-adic valuation (where $p$ is a given prime number) of some type of rational numbers is unusually large. This generalizes the very recent results by the author and by A. Dubickas, which are both…
Continued fractions have been long studied due to their strong properties, such as rational approximation. In this extent, their arithmetic over real numbers has represented an intriguing problem throughout the years. In this paper, we…
We define certain arithmetic derivatives on $\mathbb{Z}$ that respect the Leibniz rule, are additive for a chosen equation $a+b=c$, and satisfy a suitable non-degeneracy condition. Using Geometry of Numbers, we unconditionally show their…
Let $K$ be a number field. We show that, up to allowing a finite set of denominators in the partial quotients, it is possible to define algorithms for $\mathfrak P$-adic continued fractions satisfying the finiteness property on $K$ for…
For a prime ideal $\mathfrak{P}$ of the ring of integers of a number field $K$, we give a general definition of $\mathfrak{P}$-adic continued fraction, which also includes classical definitions of continued fractions in the field of…
The Additive Transform of an arithmetic function represents a novel approach to examining the interplay between multiplicative arithmetic function and additive functions. This transform concept introduces a method to systematically generate…
Let K be a number field, let f(x) in K(x) be a rational function of degree d> 1, and let z in K be a wandering point such that f^n(z) is nonzero for all n > 0. We prove that if the abc-conjecture holds for K, then for all but finitely many…

In number theory, we know Legendre's formula $ v_p(n!) = \sum_{k \ge 1} \lfloor \frac{n}{p^k} \rfloor $, which calculates the $p$-adic valuation of the factorial, i.e. the exponent of the greatest power of a prime $p$ that divides $n!$.…
