Motivated by their research on automorphism groups of pseudo-real Riemann surfaces, Bujalance, Cirre and Conder have conjectured that there are infinitely many primes $p$ such that $p+2$ has all its prime factors $q\equiv -1$ mod~$(4)$. We…

In 1992, Erd$\H{o}$s and Hegyv$\'{a}$ri showed that for any prime p, there exist infinitely many length 3 weakly prime-additive numbers divisible by p. In 2018, Fang and Chen showed that for any positive integer m, there exists infinitely…

It is well-known that for any non-constant polynomial $P$ with integer coefficients the sequence $(P(n))_{ n\in \mathbb N}$ has the property that there are infinitely many prime numbers dividing at least one term of this sequence.…

In the present work a new simple proof of the theorem of Gallagher about the average of the singular series in the Hardy-Littlewood prime k-tuple conjecture is proved (in an even stronger form) which is uniform with respect to k (if the…

The paper substantiates the conjecture of the asymptotic behavior of the largest distance between consecutive primes: $sup_{p_i \leq x}(p_{i+1}-p_i) \sim 2e^{-\gamma} \log^2(x)$, where $\gamma$ is the Euler constant. The Hardy-Littlewood…

Ova-angular rotations of a prime number are characterized, constructed using the Dirichlet theorem. The geometric properties arising from this theory are analyzed and some applications are presented, including Goldbach's conjecture, the…

We show that for every positive integer $k$, there exist $k$ consecutive primes having the property that if any digit of any one of the primes, including any of the infinitely many leading zero digits, is changed, then that prime becomes…

We answer a number of questions of Erd\H{o}s on the existence of arithmetic progressions in $k$-full numbers (i.e. integers with the property that every prime divisor necessarily occurs to at least the $k$-th power). Further, we deduce a…

In a recent work Friedlander studied the problem of how large consecutive prime gaps should be in order that the sum of the reciprocals should be divergent. Supposing a very deep Hypothesis, a generalization of the Hardy--Littlewood prime…

We prove that every sufficiently large integer $n$ can be written as the sum of a prime and an integer that is not square-free. In addition, we expect this result holds for every $n > 24$ and prove two results to support this claim. First,…

We show that there exists a bounded pattern of m consecutive primes for any m>0, that means a tuple H_m of m distinct non-negative integers h_i (i=1,2,...m) such that its translations contain arbitrarily long (finite) arithmetic…

The Schinzel Hypothesis is a celebrated conjecture in number theory linking polynomial values and prime numbers. In the same vein we investigate the common divisors of values $P_1(n),\ldots, P_s(n)$ of several polynomials. We deduce this…

Let $\omega(n)$ denote the number of distinct prime factors of $n$. Assuming a suitably uniform version of the prime $k$-tuples conjecture, we show that the number \begin{align*} \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{\omega(n)}{2^n} \end{align*} is…

We adopt an empirical approach to the characterization of the distribution of twin primes within the set of primes, rather than in the set of all natural numbers. The occurrences of twin primes in any finite sequence of primes are like…

Let $n$ be a positive integer and let $S$ be a sequence of $n$ integers in the interval $[0,n-1]$. If there is an $r$ such that any nonempty subsequence with sum $\equiv 0$ $\pmod n$ has length $=r,$ then $S$ has at most two distinct…

Kemnitz Conjecture [9] states that if we take a sequence of elements in $Z_{p}^{2}$ of length $4p-3$, $p$ is a prime number, then it has a subsequence of length $p$, whose sum is $0$ modulo $p$. It is known that in $Z_{p}^{3}$ to get a…

We create a simple test for distinguishing between sets of primes and random numbers using just the sum-of-digits function. We find that the sum-of-the-digits of prime numbers does not have an equal probability of being odd or even. The…
