Monier and Rabin proved that an odd composite can pass the Strong Probable Prime Test for at most $\frac 14$ of the possible bases. In this paper, a probable prime test is developed using quadratic polynomials and the Frobenius…
Given a large positive integer $N$, how quickly can one construct a prime number larger than $N$ (or between $N$ and 2N)? Using probabilistic methods, one can obtain a prime number in time at most $\log^{O(1)} N$ with high probability by…
When data analysts train a classifier and check if its accuracy is significantly different from chance, they are implicitly performing a two-sample test. We investigate the statistical properties of this flexible approach in the…
In this paper we give a new semiprimality test and we construct a new formula for $\pi ^{(2)}(N)$, the function that counts the number of semiprimes not exceeding a given number $N$. We also present new formulas to identify the $n^{th}$…
The author \cite{4} proved that, for every set $S$ of positive integers containing 1 (finite or infinite) there exists the density $h=h(E(S))$ of the set $E(S)$ of numbers whose prime factorizations contain exponents only from $S,$ and gave…
The order and disorder of binary representations of the natural numbers < 2^8 is measured using the BiEntropy function. Significant differences are detected between the primes and the non primes. The BiEntropic prime density is shown to be…
We introduce a method for showing that there exist prime numbers which are very close together. The method depends on the level of distribution of primes in arithmetic progressions. Assuming the Elliott-Halberstam conjecture, we prove that…
We will study the solution of a congruence, $x \equiv g^{(1/2)\omega_g(2^n)} \bmod 2^n$, depending on the integers $g$ and $n$, where $\omega_g(2^n)$ denotes the order of $g$ modulo $2^n$. Moreover, we introduce an application of the above…
A deterministic algorithm for factoring $n$ using $n^{1/3+o(1)}$ bit operations is presented. The algorithm tests the divisibility of $n$ by all the integers in a short interval at once, rather than integer by integer as in trial division.…
In order to study signed Eulerian numbers, we introduce permutations of a particular type, called parity-alternate permutations, because they take even and odd entries alternately. The objective of this paper is twofold. The first is to…
We consider the representation of primes as a sum of a prime and twice a triangular number. We prove that a subset of the primes having density 1 is expressible in this form. We conjecture that every odd prime number is expressible as a sum…
This note provides an effective lower bound for the number of primes in the quadratic progression $p=n^2+1 \leq x$ as $x \to \infty$.
Let $s\geq 8$ be an integer and $P$ be a set of primes with relative lower density greater than $\sqrt{1-\min\{s,16\}/32}$. We prove that every sufficiently large integer $n\equiv s({\rm mod}24)$ can be represented by a sum of $s$ squares…
This note presents a formalisation done in Coq of Lucas-Lehmer test and Pocklington certificate for prime numbers. They both are direct consequences of Fermat little theorem. Fermat little theorem is proved using elementary group theory and…
To factor an integer N, given that it is equal to the product of two primes, it suffices to find an integer d satisfying a certain simple numerical test. In this approach, the factorization problem equates to the problem of designing an…
In this paper we investigate the properties of the Euler functions. By using the Fourier transform for the Euler function, we derive the interesting formula related to the infinite series. Finally we give some interesting identities between…
We consider the computation of Bernoulli, Tangent (zag), and Secant (zig or Euler) numbers. In particular, we give asymptotically fast algorithms for computing the first n such numbers in O(n^2.(log n)^(2+o(1))) bit-operations. We also give…
We prove that there are infinitely many integers $n$ such that $n$ and $n+1$ have the same number of distinct prime divisors.
For a pair of random Gaussian integers chosen uniformly and independently from the set of Gaussian integers of norm $x$ or less as $x$ goes to infinity, we find asymptotics for the average norm of their greatest common divisor, with…
{\em The Liouville number}, denoted $l$, is defined by $$l:=0.100101011101101111100...,$$ where the $n$th bit is given by ${1/2}(1+\gl(n))$; here $\gl$ is the Liouville function for the parity of prime divisors of $n$. Presumably the…
