We extend a recent result of Khalfalah and Szemeredi to the polynomials of prime variables.
The prime detecting function (PDF) approach can be effective instrument in the investigation of numbers. The PDF is constructed by recurrence sequence - each successive prime adds a sieving factor in the form of PDF. With built-in prime…
Hindman's Theorem states that in any finite coloring of the integers, there is an infinite set all of whose finite sums belong to the same color. This is much stronger than the corresponding finite form, stating that in any finite coloring…
We present a new, category theoretic point of view on finite Ramsey theory. Our aims are as follows: -- to define the category theoretic notions needed for the development of finite Ramsey Theory, -- to state, in terms of these notions, the…
Within the gossamer numbers which extend the real numbers to include infinitesimals and infinities we prove the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (FTC). Riemann sums are also considered in the gossamer number system, and their non-uniqueness…
Hindman's Theorem is a prototypical example of a combinatorial theorem with a proof that uses the topology of the ultrafilters. We show how the methods of this proof, including topological arguments about ultrafilters, can be translated…
We prove upper and lower bounds on the effective content and logical strength for a variety of natural restrictions of Hindman's Finite Sums Theorem. For example, we show that Hindman's Theorem for sums of length at most 2 and 4 colors…
This paper highlights the emergence of the Omega sequence in number theory and its connection with the emergence of a new prime number, and also highlights its theoretical applications for Lucas-Lehmer primality test, and Euclid-Euler…
Motivated by a question of Di Nasso, we prove that Hindman's theorem is equivalent to the existence of idempotent types in countable complete extensions of Peano Arithmetic.
We use an upper bound on Jacobsthal's function to complete a proof of a known density result. Apart from the bound on Jacobsthal's function used here, the proof we are completing uses only elementary methods and Dirichlet's theorem on the…
A celebrated conjecture of Hardy and Littlewood provides with an asymptotic formula for the counting function of the twin primes. We give an unconditional proof of such a formula by means of a finite Ramanujan expansion of the counting…
In the present paper, we have developed a method for solving \textit{diophantine inequalities} using their relationship with the \textit{difference between consecutive primes}. Using this approach we have been able to prove some theorems,…
It is proven that, in any given base, there are infinitely many palindromic numbers having at most six prime divisors, each relatively large. The work involves equidistribution estimates for the palindromes in residue classes to large…
In this paper, we develop Furstenberg's proof of infinity of primes, and prove several results about prime divisors of sequences of integers, including the celebrated Schur's theorem. In particular, we give a simple proof of a classical…
In a recent paper \cite{So} S. Solecki proves a finite self dual Ramsey theorem that in a natural way gives simultaneously the classical finite Ramsey theorem \cite{Ra} and the Graham-Rothschild theorem \cite{Gr-Ro}. In this paper we prove…
We study the reverse mathematics of infinitary extensions of the Hales-Jewett theorem, due to Carlson and Simpson. These theorems have multiple applications in Ramsey's theory, such as the existence of finite big Ramsey numbers for the…
In the context of $\mathsf{ZF}$, we analyze a version of Hindman's finite unions theorem on infinite sets, which normally requires the Axiom of Choice to be proved. We establish the implication relations between this statement and various…
We show that any set containing a positive proportion of the primes contains a 3-term arithmetic progression. An important ingredient is a proof that the primes enjoy the so-called Hardy-Littlewood majorant property. We derive this by…
