We prove some results concerning the distribution of primes on the Riemann hypothesis. First, we prove the explicit result that there exists a prime in the interval $(x-\frac{4}{\pi} \sqrt{x} \log x,x]$ for all $x \geq 2$; this improves a…

In this paper, we present two main results. First, by only one conjecture (Conjecture 2.9) for recognizing a vertex symmetric graph, which is the hardest task for our problem, we construct an algorithm for finding an isomorphism between two…

In this paper we present the experimental results that more clearly than any theory suggest an answer to the question: when in detection of large (probably) prime numbers to apply, a very resource demanding, Miller-Rabin algorithm. Or, to…

The Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv theorem states that every sequence of 2n - 1 integers contains a subsequence of length n whose sum is divisible by n. Choi, Kang, and Lim gave a simple deterministic O(n log n) algorithm for finding such a…

Many large arithmetic computations rely on tables of all primes less than $n$. For example, the fastest algorithms for computing $n!$ takes time $O(M(n\log n) + P(n))$, where $M(n)$ is the time to multiply two $n$-bit numbers, and $P(n)$ is…

This paper proves Firoozbakht's conjecture using Rosser and Schoenfelds' inequality on the distribution of primes. This inequality is valid for all natural numbers ${n\geq 21}$. Firoozbakht's conjecture states that if $ {p_{n}}$ and…

The number of n-gram features grows exponentially in n, making it computationally demanding to compute the most frequent n-grams even for n as small as 3. Motivated by our production machine learning system built on n-gram features, we ask:…

Let $p$ and $q$ be two distinct fixed prime numbers and $(n_i)_{i\geq 0}$ the sequence of consecutive integers of the form $p^a\cdot q^b$ with $a,b\ge 0$. Tijdeman gave a lower bound (1973) and an upper bound (1974) for the gap size…

The Goldbach conjecture states that every even integer greater than 2 can be expressed as the sum of two prime numbers. This conjecture was first proposed by German mathematician Christian Goldbach in 1742 and, despite being obviously true,…

The following is proven using arguments that do not revolve around the Riemann Hypothesis or Sieve Theory. If $p_n$ is the $n^{\rm th}$ prime and $g_n=p_{n+1}-p_n$, then $g_n=O({p_n}^{2/3})$.

We prove the Ribenboim hypothesis, which states that if, starting from some integer $N$, consecutive prime numbers $p_ {n}$, $p_{n+1}$ satisfy the inequality $\sqrt {p_ {n+1}}-\sqrt{p_{n}} <1$, then the Landau problem # 4 (1912) has a…

Let $(a(n) : n \in \mathbb{N})$ denote a sequence of nonnegative integers. Let $0.a(1)a(2)...$ denote the real number obtained by concatenating the digit expansions, in a fixed base, of consecutive entries of $(a(n) : n \in \mathbb{N})$.…

The fastest known algorithm for factoring a degree $n$ univariate polynomial over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ runs in time $O(n^{3/2 + o(1)}\text{polylog } q)$, and there is a reason to believe that the $3/2$ exponent represents a…

We show that $n$-bit integers can be factorized by independently running a quantum circuit with $\tilde{O}(n^{3/2})$ gates for $\sqrt{n}+4$ times, and then using polynomial-time classical post-processing. The correctness of the algorithm…
