Landau's well known asymptotic formula $$N_k(x):=\ \mid\{n\leq x : \Omega(n)=k\}\mid \ \sim \left( \frac{x}{\log x} \right) \frac{(\log\log x)^{k-1}}{(k - 1)!}\ \ (x \rightarrow \infty),$$ which also holds for $$\pi_k(x):=\ \mid\{n\leq x :…

For a positive integer $n$, we denote by $F(n)$ the distance from $n$ to the nearest prime number. We prove that every sufficiently large positive integer $N$ can be represented as the sum $N=n_1+n_2$, where $$ F(n_i) \geqslant (\log…

Let $K$ be a number field with ring of integers $\mathcal O_{K}$. We prove that if $3$ does not divide $ [K:\mathbb Q]$ and $3$ splits completely in $K$, then the unit equation has no solutions in $K$. In other words, there are no $x, y \in…

For almost 35 years, Sch{\"o}nhage-Strassen's algorithm has been the fastest algorithm known for multiplying integers, with a time complexity O(n $\times$ log n $\times$ log log n) for multiplying n-bit inputs. In 2007, F{\"u}rer proved…

We show that if $K$ is a monogenic, primitive, totally real number field, that contains units of every signature, then there exists a lower bound for the rank of integer universal quadratic forms defined over $K$. In particular, we extend…

We show that if $A\subset \{1,\ldots,N\}$ has no solutions to $a-b=n^2$ with $a,b\in A$ and $n\geq 1$ then \[|A|\ll \frac{N}{(\log N)^{c\log\log \log N}}\] for some absolute constant $c>0$. This improves upon a result of…

Let $k$ be a perfect complete valued field with a nontrivial non-archimedean norm $|\cdot|$ and $\omega\in k$ with $0<|\omega|<1.$ Let $X$ be a reduced and normal $k$-analytic space. Then $O^{\circ}\simeq…

Let $\ell \geq 5$ be a prime and let $N$ be a non-squarefree integer not divisible by $\ell$. For a rational Eisenstein prime $\mathfrak{m}$ of the Hecke ring $\mathbb{T}(N)$ of level $N$ acting on $J_0(N)$, we precisely compute the…

Let Y and X denote C^k vector fields on a possibly noncompact surface with empty boundary, k >0. Say that Y tracks X if the dynamical system it generates locally permutes integral curves of X. Let K be a locally maximal compact set of…

For a finite group $\Gamma$, we study the distribution of the Galois group $G_{\emptyset}^{\#}(K)$ of the maximal unramified extension of $K$ that is split completely at $\infty$ and has degree prime to $|\Gamma|$ and $\textit{Char}(K)$, as…

Given a number field $K$ that is a subfield of the real numbers, we generalize the notion of the classical Frobenius problem to the ring of integers $\mathfrak{O}_K$ of $K$ by describing certain Frobenius semigroups,…

We prove that for no nontrivial ordered abelian group G, the ordered power series field R((G)) admits an exponential, i.e. an isomorphism between its ordered additive group and its ordered multiplicative group of positive elements, but that…

In all available papers, on power integral bases of pure octic number fields $K$, generated by a root $\alpha$ of a monic irreducible polynomial $f(x)=x^8-m\in\mathbf Z[x]$, it was assumed that $m\neq \pm 1$ is square free. In this paper,…

Two subsets $A,B$ of an $n$-element ground set $X$ are said to be \emph{crossing}, if none of the four sets $A\cap B$, $A\setminus B$, $B\setminus A$ and $X\setminus(A\cup B)$ are empty. It was conjectured by Karzanov and Lomonosov forty…

Let $d_n = p_{n+1} - p_n$, where $p_n$ denotes the $n$th smallest prime, and let $R(T) = \log T \log_2 T\log_4 T/(\log_3 T)^2$ (the "Erd{\H o}s--Rankin" function). We consider the sequence $(d_n/R(p_n))$ of normalized prime gaps, and show…
