Let $\{p_j(n)\}_{j=1}^{\omega(n)}$ denote the increasing sequence of distinct prime factors of an integer $n$. For $z\geqslant 0$, let $G(n;z)$ denote the number of those indexes $j$ such that $p_{j+1}(n)>p_j(n)^{\exp z}$. We show uniform…

Let $p_n$ denote the $n^{th}$ prime. Goldston, Pintz, and Yildirim recently proved that $ \liminf_{n\to \infty} \frac{(p_{n+1}-p_n)}{\log p_n} =0.$ We give an alternative proof of this result. We also prove some corresponding results for…

Jacobsthal's function was recently generalised for the case of paired progressions. It was proven that a specific bound of this function is sufficient for the truth of Goldbach's conjecture and of the prime pairs conjecture as well. We…

We give simple proofs, under minimal hypotheses, of the Weak Law of Large Numbers and the Central Limit Theorem for independent identically distributed random variables. These proofs use only the elementary calculus, together with the most…

We show any subset $A\subset\mathbb{N}$ with positive upper Banach density contains the pattern $\{m,m+[n\alpha],\dots,m+k[n\alpha]\}$, for some $m\in\mathbb{N}$ and $n=p-1$ for some prime $p$, where…

The binary problem of Goldbach is solved by the method of the trigonometrical sums. The asymptotic formula of distribution of the even numbers formed by the sum of two simple uneven numbers is found for each even number from the set of…

Let \sigma(n) be the sum of divisors of a positive integer n. Robin's theorem states that the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the inequality \sigma(n)<e^\gamma n\log\log n for all n>5040 (\gamma is Euler's constant). It is a natural…

A well known result of Newman says that upto a limit, multiples of $3$ with even number of 1's in binary representation always exceed multiples of $3$ with odd number of 1's. The phenomenon of preponderance of even number of 1's is now…

We know that any prime number of form $4s+1$ can be written as a sum of two perfect square numbers. As a consequence of Goldbach's weak conjecture, any number great than $10$ can be represented as a sum of four primes. We are motivated to…

The prime number problem falls within the realm of number theory, specifically elementary number theory. Current research approaches have unnecessarily complicated this matter. In contrast to more advanced mathematical tools, the methods of…

We examine the problem of writing every sufficiently large even number as the sum of two primes and at most $K$ powers of 2. We outline an approach that only just falls short of improving the current bounds on $K$. Finally, we improve the…

We investigate the Waring-Goldbach problem of representing a positive integer $n$ as the sum of $s$ $k$th powers of almost equal prime numbers. Define $s_k=2k(k-1)$ when $k\ge 3$, and put $s_2=6$. In addition, put $\theta_2=\frac{19}{24}$,…
