Due to the distribution of primes among integers, we establish an upper bound for the probability $\mathbb{P}_n$ that the Goldbach conjecture fails. Assuming the conjecture holds true for all even number less than $2N$, we prove this…

We establish the asymptotic behaviour of $\mu(G(n,p))$, the number of unlabelled induced subgraphs in the binomial random graph $G(n,p)$, for almost the entire range of the probability parameter $p=p(n)\in[0,1]$. In particular, we show that…

In this paper we create a definition for prime gaps in the Gaussian integers using a boxcar metric. From this we used numerical methods to derive an asymptotic upper bound for the gaps in this scenario, namely O(log^2|p_{n}|).

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…

Let $A_n$ be a random symmetric matrix with Bernoulli $\{\pm 1\}$ entries. For any $\kappa>0$ and two real numbers $\lambda_1,\lambda_2$ with a separation $|\lambda_1-\lambda_2|\geq \kappa n^{1/2}$ and both lying in the bulk…

We investigate the statistics of the gap, G_n, between the two rightmost positions of a Markovian one-dimensional random walker (RW) after n time steps and of the duration, L_n, which separates the occurrence of these two extremal…

We consider the first exit time of a nonnegative Harris-recurrent Markov process from the interval $[0,A]$ as $A\to\infty$. We provide an alternative method of proof of asymptotic exponentiality of the first exit time (suitably…

If $p:\mathbb{C} \to \mathbb{C}$ is a non-constant polynomial, the Gauss--Lucas theorem asserts that its critical points are contained in the convex hull of its roots. We consider the case when $p$ is a random polynomial of degree $n$ with…

We consider random temporal graphs, a version of the classical Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi random graph G(n,p) where additionally, each edge has a distinct random time stamp, and connectivity is constrained to sequences of edges with increasing time…

We study analytically the order statistics of a time series generated by the successive positions of a symmetric random walk of n steps with step lengths of finite variance \sigma^2. We show that the statistics of the gap d_{k,n}=M_{k,n}…

We prove prime exponential sums have no better than square root cancellation on average on short intervals, in the sense that $$\frac{1}{x} \sum_{-y< n\le x} \left|\sum_{\substack{n< m \le n+y\\ 1\le m \le x}} \Lambda(m) \mathrm{e}(\alpha…

A new derivation of the classic asymptotic expansion of the n-th prime is presented. A fast algorithm for the computation of its terms is also given, which will be an improvement of that by Salvy (1994). Realistic bounds for the error with…

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…
