We present tables of record (maximal) gaps between densest prime constellations, or k-tuplets. The tables contain all maximal gaps between prime k-tuplets up to 10^15, for each k<=7.
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…
Let $K$ be a quadratic field which is not an imaginary quadratic field of class number one. We describe an algorithm to compute the primes $p$ for which there exists an elliptic curve over $K$ admitting a $K$-rational $p$-isogeny. This…
Let $q$ be a prime power. We estimate the number of tuples of degree bounded monic polynomials $(Q_1,\ldots,Q_v) \in (\mathbb{F}_q[z])^v$ that satisfy given pairwise coprimality conditions. We show how this generalises from monic…
Let $r\ge k\ge 2$ be fixed positive integers. Let $\varrho_{r,k}$ denote the characteristic function of the set of $r$-tuples of positive integers with $k$-wise relatively prime components, that is any $k$ of them are relatively prime. We…
We provide an upper bound on the uniform exponent of approximation to a triple (xi, xi^2, xi^3) by rational numbers with the same denominator, valid for any transcendental real number xi. This upper bound refines a previous result of…
We estimate the distribution of relatively $r$-prime lattice points in number fields $K$ with their components having a norm less than $x$. In the previous paper we obtained uniform upper bounds as $K$ runs through all number fields under…
Let $K_i$ be a number field for all $i \in \mathbb{Z}_{> 0}$ and let $\mathcal{E}$ be a family of elliptic curves containing infinitely many members defined over $K_i$ for all $i$. Fix a rational prime $p$. We give sufficient conditions for…
ABSTRACT. In this article we present a point of view that highlights the importance of finding the upper bounds for prime gaps, in order to solve the twin primes conjecture and the Goldbach conjecture. For this purpose, we present a…
We prove near-optimal upper bounds for the odd moments of the distribution of coprime residues in short intervals, confirming a conjecture of Montgomery and Vaughan. As an application we prove near-optimal upper bounds for the average of…
Every natural number greater than two may be written as the sum of a prime and a square-free number. We establish several generalisations of this, by placing divisibility conditions on the square-free number.
Let $N(x,y)$ denote the number of integers $n\le x$ which are divisible by a shifted prime $p-1$ with $p>y$, $p$ prime. Improving upon recent bounds of McNew, Pollack and Pomerance, we establish the exact order of growth of $N(x,y)$ for all…
Let $D_{k}$ be a set with $k$ distinct elements of integers such that $d_{1}<d_{2}<\cdots<d_{k}$. We say $D_{k}^{*}$ is a $k$-tuple prime difference champion ($k$-tuple PDC) for primes $\le x$ if the set $D_{k}^{*}$ is the most probable…
We pose 100 new conjectures on representations involving primes or related things, which might interest number theorists and stimulate further research. Below are five typical examples: (i) For any positive integer $n$, there exists…
We consider the problem of sums of dilates in groups of prime order. We show that given $A\subset \Z{p}$ of sufficiently small density then $$\big| \lambda_{1}A+\lambda_{2}A+...+ \lambda_{k}A \big|…
This paper is devoted to the theory of prime numbers. In this paper we first introduce the notion of a matrix of prime numbers. Then, in order to investigate the density of prime numbers in separate rows of the matrix under consideration,…
Suppose that an infinite set $A$ occupies at most $\frac{1}{2}(p+1)$ residue classes modulo $p$, for every sufficiently large prime $p$. The squares, or more generally the integer values of any quadratic, are an example of such a set. By…
Prime numbers have attracted the attention of mathematiciansand enthusiasts for millenniums due to their simple definition and remarkable properties. In this paper, we study primorial numbers (the product of the first prime numbers) to…
Let $p$ be a prime number. For a positive integer $n$ and a real number $\xi$, let $\lambda_n (\xi)$ denote the supremum of the real numbers $\lambda$ for which there are infinitely many integer tuples $(x_0, x_1, \ldots , x_n)$ such that…
In this paper, we show a new upper bound of prime gaps, that is the gap between a prime number and its consecutive prime number. We show that the gap between a prime number $p_n$ and its consecutive prime number is not larger than…
