For a positive integer $n$ let $\mathfrak{P}_n=\prod_{s_p(n)\ge p} p,$ where $p$ runs over all primes and $s_p(n)$ is the sum of the base $p$ digits of $n$. For all $n$ we prove that $\mathfrak{P}_n$ is divisible by all "small" primes with…

We prove an explicit error term for the $\psi(x,\chi)$ function assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis. Using this estimate, we prove a conditional explicit bound for the number of primes in arithmetic progressions.

For relatively prime positive integers $u_0$ and $r$ and for $0\le k\le n$, define $u_k:=u_0+kr$. Let $L_n:={\rm lcm}(u_0, u_1, ..., u_n)$ and let $a, l\ge 2$ be any integers. In this paper, we show that, for integers $\alpha \geq a$ and…

We show that the number of $1$'s in the first $N$ digits of the binary expansion of $\sqrt{2}$ is at least $\sqrt{2N}(1+o(1))$ and show that this bound can be improved to around $2\sqrt{N}/\sqrt{2\sqrt{2}-1}$ infinitely often.

The aim of this paper is to give a direct interpretation of the validity of the Riemann hypothesis up to a certain height $T$ in terms of the prime-counting function $\pi(x)$. This is done by proving the well-known explicit Schoenfeld bound…

The aim of this note is to provide an upper bound of the number of positive integers $\le x$ which can be written as $\varphi(n)$ for some positive integer $n$, where $\varphi$ stands for the Euler's function. The order of magnitude of this…

Let $\lambda$ be the Liouville function, defined as $\lambda(n) := (-1)^{\Omega(n)}$ where $\Omega(n)$ is the number of prime factors of $n$ with multiplicity. In 2021, Helfgott and Radziwi{\l}{\l} proved that $$\sum_{n\leq x} \frac{1}{n}…

We shall given a new effectively computable upper bound of odd perfect numbers whose Euler factors are powers of fixed exponent, improving our old result in T. Yamada, Colloq. Math. 103 (2005), 303--307.

Let $f(n)$ be the number of distinct exponents in the prime factorization of the natural number $n$. We prove some results about the distribution of $f(n)$. In particular, for any positive integer $k$, we obtain that $$ \#\{n \leq x : f(n)…

For $p$ being a large prime number, and $A \subset \mathbb{F}_p$ we prove the following: $(i)$ If $A(A+A)$ does not cover all nonzero residues in $\mathbb{F}_p$, then $|A| < p/8 + o(p)$. $(ii)$ If $A$ is both sum-free and satisfies $A =…

New exceptional (i.e. non-repeating) prime number multiplets are given and formulated in terms of arithmetic progressions, along with laws governing them. Accompanying repeating prime number multiplets are pointed out. Prime number…

We show that for every $0 < \epsilon \leq 1$ and integer $k\geq 1$, there exists an integer $n = n(\epsilon,k)$ so that for all primes $p$, and integers $0 \leq a \leq p-1$, there exist integers $1 \leq x_1 < ... < x_n \leq p^\epsilon$ such…

Using some simple combinatorial arguments, we establish some new estimates for the prime counting function and its allied functions. In particular we show that \begin{align}\pi(x)=\Theta(x)+O\bigg(\frac{1}{\log x}\bigg), \nonumber…

We give an upper bound for the exponential $\sum_{m=1}^M \exp( 2i\pi f (m))$ in terms of $M$ and $\lambda$, where $\lambda$ is a small positive number which denotes the size of the fourth derivative of the real valued function $f$. The…

For any measure preserving system $(X,\mathcal{X},\mu,T)$ and $A\in\mathcal{X}$ with $\mu(A)>0$, we show that there exist infinitely many primes $p$ such that $\mu\bigl(A\cap T^{-(p-1)}A\cap T^{-2(p-1)}A\bigr) > 0$ (the same holds with…

Let $N$ be the counting function of a Beurling generalized number system and let $\pi$ be the counting function of its primes. We show that the $L^{1}$-condition $$ \int_{1}^{\infty}|\frac{N(x)-ax}{x}|\frac{\mathrm{d}x}{x}<\infty $$ and the…

Given a partition $\{E_0,\ldots,E_n\}$ of the set of primes and a vector $\mathbf{k} \in \mathbb{N}_0^{n+1}$, we compute an asymptotic formula for the quantity $|\{m \leq x: \omega_{E_j}(m) = k_j \ \forall \ 0 \leq j \leq n\}|$ uniformly in…

Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, we prove the latest explicit version of the prime number theorem for short intervals. Using this result, and assuming the generalised Riemann hypothesis for Dirichlet $L$-functions is true, we then establish…

Counting the number of prime numbers up to a certain natural number and describing the asymptotic behavior of such a counting function has been studied by famous mathematicians like Gauss, Legendre, Dirichlet, and Euler. The prime number…

This paper introduces a new method to find the next prime number after a given prime ${P}$. The proposed method is used to derive a system of inequalities, that serve as constraints which should be satisfied by all primes whose successor is…
