Let $q$ be an odd prime power and write \[ \theta_q := \frac{\phi(q-1)}{q-1}. \] If $\theta_q < \tfrac{1}{3}$, or if $\theta_q = \tfrac{1}{3}$ and $q \notin \{7,13,19,25,37\}$, then the finite field $\F$ contains a pair of consecutive…

A Diophantine $m$-tuple with elements in the field $K$ is a set of $m$ non-zero (distinct) elements of $K$ with the property that the product of any two distinct elements is one less than a square in $K$. Let $X: (x^2-1)(y^2-1)(z^2-1)=k^2,$…

This brief note presents standard computations of primordial black hole mass $M$ given perturbations of scale $k$, and their late-time abundance $\Omega_\text{PBH}$ given their initial density fraction $\beta$. I recap the assumptions made…

The purpose of this note is to introduce primitive ideals of noncommutative semigroups and study some topological aspects of the corresponding structure spaces.

The present paper records more details of the relationship between primitive elements and palindromes in F_2, the free group of rank two. We characterise the conjugacy classes of primitive elements which contain palindromes as those which…

In the algebraic theory of codes and formal languages, the set $Q$ of all primitive words over some alphabet $\zi $ has received special interest. With this survey article we give an overview about relevant research to this topic during the…

Let $P_k$ be the subgroup generated by $k$th powers of primitive elements in $F_r$, the free group of rank $r$. We show that $F_2/P_k$ is finite if and only if $k$ is $1$, $2$, or $3$. We also fully characterize $F_2/P_k$ for $k = 2,3,4$.…

Let $k$ be an imaginary quadratic number field, and $F/k$ a finite abelian extension of Galois group $G$. We investigate the relationship between the conjectural special elements introduced in \cite{Burns-DeJeu-Gangl} and ETNC in the…

The investigation of primes in certain arithmetic sequences is one of the fundamental problems in number theory and especially, finding blocks of distinct primes has gained a lot of attention in recent years. In this context, we prove the…

For every algebraically closed field $\boldsymbol k$ of characteristic different from $2$, we prove the following: (1) Generic finite dimensional (not necessarily associative) $\boldsymbol k$-algebras of a fixed dimension, considered up to…

In this paper, a computationally simple and explicit method of constructing recursive sequence of primitive polynomials of degree $n2^k (k = 1, 2, 3,\ldots)$ over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ is given.

A set of integers is \emph{primitive} if it does not contain an element dividing another. Denote by $f(n)$ the number of maximum-size primitive subsets of $\{1,\ldots, 2n\}$. We prove that the limit $\alpha=\lim_{n\rightarrow…

We prove that if $G$ is a finite primitive permutation group and if $g$ is an element of $G$, then either $g$ has a cycle of length equal to its order, or for some $r$, $m$ and $k$, the group $G \leq \mathrm{Sym}(m) \textrm{wr}…

A set of integers greater than 1 is primitive if no element divides another. Erd\H{o}s proved in 1935 that the sum of $1/(n \log n)$ for $n$ running over a primitive set $A$ is universally bounded over all choices for $A$. In 1988 he asked…

We give a lower bound on multiplicative orders of some elements in defined by Conway towers of finite fields of characteristic two and also formulate a condition under that these elements are primitive

Thomas-Fermi theory is developed to evaluate nuclear matrix elements averaged on the energy shell, on the basis of independent particle Hamiltonians. One- and two-body matrix elements are compared with the quantal results and it is…

This paper gives elements in the (skew) center of the generalized quantum group corresponding to its irreducible finite dimensional modules. Finally we give a conjecture stating that those must form a basis of the center.

Let $k \geq 2$, $q$ be an odd prime power, and $F \in \mathbb{F}_q[x_1, \ldots, x_k]$ be a polynomial. An $F$-Diophantine set over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ is a set $A \subset \mathbb{F}_q^*$ such that $F(a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_k)$ is a…

We study the various term operations on the set of skew primitive elements of Hopf algebras, generated by skew primitive semi-invariants of an Abelian group of grouplike elements. All 1-linear binary operations are described and trilinear…

We study totally positive definite quadratic forms over the ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$ of a totally real biquadratic field $K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{m}, \sqrt{s})$. We restrict our attention to classical forms (i.e., those with all…
