In this paper we extend and improve all the previous results known in literature about weighted average, with Ces\`aro weight, of representations of an integer as sum of a positive arbitrary number of prime powers and a non-negative…

It is proved that all sufficiently large integers $n$ can be represented as $$n=x_1^2+x_2^3+\cdots+x_{13}^{14},$$ where $x_1,\ldots,x_{13}$ are positive integers. This improves upon the current record with $14$ variables in place of $13$.

In this paper, we show that every pair of large even integers satisfying certain necessary conditions can be expressed as a pair of one prime, one prime square, two prime cubes and 56 powers of 2.

We show that there are infinitely many primes $p$ such that not only does $p + 2$ have at most two prime factors, but $p + 6$ also has a bounded number of prime divisors. This refines the well known result of Chen.

Motivated by questions of Fouvry and Rudnick on the distribution of Gaussian primes, we develop a very general setting in which one can study inequities in the distribution of analogues of primes through analytic properties of infinitely…

In this paper, we prove a conjecture of Chan and Chua for the number of representations of integers as sums of 8s integral squares. The proof uses a theorem of Imamo\={g}lu and Kohnen, and the double shuffle relations satisfied by the…

In this paper, we consider representations of integers as sums of at most four distinct $m$-gonal numbers (allowing a fixed number of repeats of each polygonal number occurring in the sum). We show that the number of such representations…

The aim of the present article is to explore the possibilities of representing positive integers as sums of other positive integers and highlight certain fundamental connections between their multiplicative and additive properties. In…

We study the representations of large integers $n$ as sums $p_1^2 + ... + p_s^2$, where $p_1,..., p_s$ are primes with $| p_i - (n/s)^{1/2} | \le n^{\theta/2}$, for some fixed $\theta < 1$. When $s = 5$ we use a sieve method to show that…

Via a covariance representation based on characteristic functions, a known elementary proof of the Gaussian concentration inequality is presented. A few other applications are briefly mentioned.

It is proposed by Chen et. al. to represent the gauge fields in theories with local symmetries as a sum of "physical" and "pure gauge" fields which to be treated separately. Here we show that after quantization this representation leads to…

A conjecture of Cai-Zhang-Shen for figurate primes says that every integer $k>1$ is the sum of two figurate primes. In this paper we give an equivalent proposition to the conjecture. By considering extreme value problems with constraints…

In this paper, we consider the simultaneous representation of pairs of sufficiently large integers. We prove that every pair of large positive odd integers can be represented in the form of a pair of one prime, four cubes of primes and 231…

Let $Q$ be a positive-definite quaternary quadratic form with prime discriminant. We give an explicit lower bound on the number of representations of a positive integer $n$ by $Q$. This problem is connected with deriving an upper bound on…

We show that the Gaussian primes $P[i] \subseteq \Z[i]$ contain infinitely constellations of any prescribed shape and orientation. More precisely, given any distinct Gaussian integers $v_0,...,v_{k-1}$, we show that there are infinitely…

Let $b \ge 2$ be an integer. Among other results, we establish, in a quantitative form, that any sufficiently large integer which is not a multiple of $b$ cannot have simultaneously only few distinct prime factors and only few nonzero…

Romanov proved that a positive proportion of the integers have a representation as a sum of a prime and a power of an arbitrary fixed positive integer. Rieger proved the analogous result for number fields. We will determine an explicit…

We show that all natural numbers $n\equiv 4\pmod 6$ are the sum of two Chen primes (primes $p$ such that $p+2$ has at most two prime factors), apart from a power-saving set of exceptions. This improves on various previous results and is…

Let $P$ be a subset of the primes of lower density strictly larger than $\frac12$. Then, every sufficiently large even integer is a sum of four primes from the set $P$. We establish similar results for $k$-summands, with $k\geq 4$, and for…

Inspired by a classical result of R\'enyi, we prove that every even integer $N\geq 4$ can be written as the sum of a prime and a number with at most 395 prime factors. We also show, under assumption of the generalised Riemann hypothesis,…
