For a fixed exponent $0 < \theta \leq 1$, it is expected that we have the prime number theorem in short intervals $\sum_{x \leq n < x+x^\theta} \Lambda(n) \sim x^\theta$ as $x \to \infty$. From the recent zero density estimates of Guth and…

We prove that if $x$ is large enough, namely $x\ge x_0$, then there exists a prime between $x(1- \Delta^{-1})$ and $x$, where $\Delta$ is an effective constant computed in terms of $x_0$. This improves some previous results of Ramar\'e and…

We prove that a positive proportion of the intervals of any fixed scalar multiple of $\log(X)$ in the dyadic interval $[X,2X]$ contain a prime number. We also show that a positive proportion of the congruence classes modulo $q$ contain a…

Let pi(x) denote the number of primes smaller or equal to x. We compare sqrt{pi}(x) with sqrt{R}(x) and sqrt{li}(x), where R(x) and li(x) are the Riemann function and the logarithmic integral, respectively. We show a regularity in the…

We prove that suitable asymptotic formulae in short intervals hold for the problems of representing an integer as a sum of a prime square and a square, or a prime square. Such results are obtained both assuming the Riemann Hypothesis and in…

The aim of this work is to illustrate a conditional result involving the exponential sums over primes in short intervals under the assumption that both the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis and the Density Hypothesis for Dirichlet…

We prove that if $\lambda_1$, $\lambda_2$, $\lambda_3$ and $\lambda_4$ are non-zero real numbers, not all of the same sign, $\lambda_1 / \lambda_2$ is irrational, and $\varpi$ is any real number then, for any $\eps > 0$ the inequality $…

Let $H = N^{\theta}, \theta > 2/3$ and $k \geq 1$. We obtain estimates for the following exponential sum over primes in short intervals: \[ \sum_{N < n \leq N+H} \Lambda(n) e(g(n)), \] where $g$ is a polynomial of degree $k$. As a…

We introduce a sieve for counting twin primes up to a given range. Our method depends on a parameter ${\lambda}_x$ and the estimation of the number of twin primes obtained as a result, is called a fundamental structure of the distribution…

Let $n\in\mathbb{Z}^+$. In [8] we ask the question whether any sequence of $n$ consecutive integers greater than $n^2$ and smaller than $(n+1)^2$ contains at least one prime number, and we show that this is actually the case for every…

We establish completely log-free bounds for exponential sums over the primes and the M\"{o}bius function. Let $0<\eta \leq 1/10$, and suppose $\alpha = a/q + \delta/x$, with $(a,q)=1$ and $|\delta| \leq x^{1/5 + \eta}/q$, and set $\delta_0…
