We introduce a new, elementary method for studying random differences in arithmetic progressions and convergence phenomena along random sequences of integers. We apply our method to obtain significant improvements on previously known…
The generalized Erd\H{o}s-Straus conjecture, proposed by Wac\l{}aw Sierpi\'{n}ski in 1956, asks whether the Diophantine equation \[ \frac{5}{a} = \frac{1}{b} + \frac{1}{c} + \frac{1}{d} \] admits positive integer solutions $b,c,d \in…
The inequality of Berwald is a reverse-H\"older like inequality for the $p$th average, $p\in (-1,\infty),$ of a non-negative, concave function over a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^n.$ We prove Berwald's inequality for averages of functions…
Alford, Granville, and Pomerance proved that there are infinitely many Carmichael numbers. In the same paper, they ask if a statement analogous to Bertrand's postulate could be proven for Carmichael numbers. In this paper, we answer this…
Erd\H{o}s and Tur\'an proved a classical inequality on the distribution of roots for a complex polynomial in 1950, depicting the fundamental interplay between the size of the coefficients of a polynomial and the distribution of its roots on…
We give a short and elementary argument answering a question of Erd\H{o}s and Ingham negatively. Erd\H{o}s and Ingham showed that a Tauberian estimate they considered was equivalent to the non-vanishing of $1+\sum_{k}a_k^{-1-it}$ for any…
We give a simple proof of a recently result concerning Hardy $q$-inequalities.
Pisier's inequality is central in the study of normed spaces and has important applications in geometry. We provide an elementary proof of this inequality, which avoids some non-constructive steps from previous proofs. Our goal is to make…
In this paper we show that every set $A \subset \mathbb{N}$ with positive density contains $B+C$ for some pair $B,C$ of infinite subsets of $\mathbb{N}$, settling a conjecture of Erd\H{o}s. The proof features two different decompositions of…
In this article, we studied the inverse Erd\H{o}s-Heilbronn problem with the restricted sumset from two components $A$ and $B$ that are not necessarily the same. We give a completely elementary proof for the problem in $\mathbb{Z}$ and some…
The Erd\H{o}s similarity conjecture asserted that an infinite set of real numbers cannot be affinely embedded into every measurable set of positive Lebesgue measure. The problem is still open, in particular for all fast decaying sequences.…
We establish a novel improvement of the classical discrete Hardy inequality, which gives the discrete version of a recent (continuous) inequality of Frank, Laptev, and Weidl. Our arguments build on certain weighted inequalities based on…
In this note we improve an algorithm from a recent paper by Bauer and Bennett for computing a function of Erd\"os that measures the minimal gap size $f(k)$ in the sequence of integers at least one of whose prime factors exceeds $k$. This…
In this paper we consider Erd\"os-Mordell inequality and its extension in the plane of triangle to the Erd\"os-Mordell curve. Algebraic equation of this curve is derived, and using modern computer tools in mathematics, we verified one…
We survey the classical results on the prime number theorem
In this note we prove an inequality involving primes and the product of consecutive primes.
We give a relatively easy proof of the Erd\H os-Kac theorem via computing moments. We show how this proof extends naturally in a sieve theory context, and how it leads to several related results in the literature.
Erd\H{o}s first showed that the number of positive integers up to $x$ which can be written as a product of two number less than $\sqrt{x}$ has zero density. Ford then found the correct order of growth of the set of all these integers. We…
Bertrand's Postulate ensures existence of prime $p$ between $n$ and $2n$, $n$ an integer $\geq 2$ and the sieve of Eratosthenes, a very simple ancient algorithm, generates all prime numbers up to any given limit. Combining the above two, in…
The classical inequality of Bohr concerning Taylor coeficients of bounded holomorphic functions on the unit disk, has proved to be of significance in answering in the negative the conjecture that if the non-unital von Neumann inequality…
