For $n=1,2,3,\ldots$ let $S_n$ be the sum of the first $n$ primes. We mainly show that the sequence $a_n=\root n\of{S_n/n}\ (n=1,2,3,\ldots)$ is strictly decreasing, and moreover the sequence $a_{n+1}/a_n\ (n=10,11,\ldots)$ is strictly…

The statistical physics approach to the number partioning problem, a classical NP-hard problem, is both simple and rewarding. Very basic notions and methods from statistical mechanics are enough to obtain analytical results for the phase…

The number of tuples with positive integers pairwise relatively prime to each other with product at most $n$ is considered. A generalization of $\mu^{2}$ where $\mu$ is the M\"{o}bius function is used to formulate this divisor sum and…

The Poisson multinomial distribution (PMD) describes the distribution of the sum of $n$ independent but non-identically distributed random vectors, in which each random vector is of length $m$ with 0/1 valued elements and only one of its…

We study additive properties of consecutive prime numbers and the primality of the sums they generate. For a given prime number $p_n$, we consider the sums \[ S_k(p_n) = p_n + p_{n+1} + \cdots + p_{n+k-1}, \] where $k \ge 3$ is an odd…

In order to avoid unnecessary applications of Miller-Rabin algorithm to the number in question, we resort to trial division by a few initial prime numbers, since such a division take less time. How far we should go with such a division is…

Let omega(n) be the number of prime divisors of an integer n. Let n be an integer taken at random between 1 and N. What can be said about the value then taken by omega(n)? What is its expected value? What is its distribution in the limit?…

We prove several results regarding the distribution of numbers that are the product of a prime and a $k$-th power. First, we prove an asymptotic formula for the counting function of such numbers; this generalises a result of E. Cohen. We…
