Let $(\mathcal{A}_i)_{i \in [s]}$ be a sequence of dense subsets of the Boolean cube $\{0,1\}^n$ and let $p$ be a prime. We show that if $s$ is assumed to be superpolynomial in $n$ then we can find distinct $i,j$ such that the two…

A conjecture of Erd\H{o}s states that, for any large prime $q$, every reduced residue class $\pmod q$ can be represented as a product $p_1p_2$ of two primes $p_1,p_2\leq q$. We establish a ternary version of this conjecture, showing that,…

In this paper we study the distribution of totients $2$ mod. $4$. We prove that the asymptotic magnitude of such totients with multiplicity two is half of that of prime numbers. As a corollary we obtain that the relative asymptotic density…

Let $A$ be the product of an abelian variety and a torus over a number field $K$, and let $m$ be a positive integer. If $\alpha \in A(K)$ is a point of infinite order, we consider the set of primes $\mathfrak p$ of $K$ such that the…

Let $A$ be an absolutely simple abelian surface defined over a number field $K$ with a commutative (geometric) endomorphism ring. Let $\pi_{A, \text{split}}(x)$ denote the number of primes $\mathfrak{p}$ in $K$ such that each prime has norm…

In this paper we show that if $A$ is a subset of the primes with positive relative density $\delta$, then $A+A$ must have positive upper density $C_1\delta e^{-C_2(\log(1/\delta))^{2/3}(\log\log(1/\delta))^{1/3}}$ in $\mathbb{N}$. Our…

Suppose that $d \in \{ 2, 3, 4, 6 \}$ and $a \in \mathbb{Z}$ with $a\neq -1$ and $a$ is not square. Let $P_{(a,d)}$ be the number of primes $p$ not exceeding $x$ such that $p \equiv 1 \pmod{d}$ and $a^{(p-1)/d} \equiv 1 \pmod{p}$. In this…

Let $\Bbb Z$ be the set of integers, and let $(m,n)$ be the greatest common divisor of integers $m$ and $n$. Let $p\equiv 1\mod 4$ be a prime, $q\in\Bbb Z$, $2\nmid q$ and $p=c^2+d^2=x^2+qy^2$ with $c,d,x,y\in\Bbb Z$ and $c\e 1\mod 4$.…

For a fixed integer $n\geq 2,$ we show that a permutation of the least residues mod $p$ of the form $f(x)=Ax^k$ mod $p$ cannot map a residue class mod $n$ to just one residue class mod $n$ once $p$ is sufficiently large, other than the maps…

Let $q\geq 1$ be any integer and let $ \epsilon \in [\frac{1}{11}, \frac{1}{2})$ be a given real number. In this short note, we prove that for all primes $p$ satisfying $$ p\equiv 1\pmod{q}, \quad \log\log p > \frac{\log…

Let $s \geq 3$ be a fixed positive integer and $a_1,\dots,a_s \in \mathbb{Z}$ be arbitrary. We show that, on average over $k$, the density of numbers represented by the degree $k$ diagonal form \[ a_1 x_1^k + \cdots + a_s x_s^k \] decays…

We confirm several conjectures of Sun involving quadratic residues modulo odd primes. For any prime $p\equiv 1\pmod 4$ and integer $a\not\equiv0\pmod p$, we prove that \begin{align*}&(-1)^{|\{1\le k<\frac p4:\ (\frac kp)=-1\}|}\prod_{1\le…

Let $P$ be a subset of the primes of lower density strictly larger than $\frac12$. Then, every sufficiently large even integer is a sum of four primes from the set $P$. We establish similar results for $k$-summands, with $k\geq 4$, and for…

Let $n_1,\cdots,n_r$ be any finite sequence of integers and let $S$ be the set of all natural numbers $n$ for which there exists a divisor $d(x)=1+\sum_{i=1}^{deg(d)}c_ix^i$ of $x^n-1$ such that $c_i=n_i$ for $1\leq i \leq r$. In this paper…

We prove that, if $x$ and $q\leqslant x^{1/16}$ are two parameters, then for any invertible residue class $a$ modulo $q$ there exists a product of exactly three primes, each one below $x^{1/3}$, that is congruent to $a$ modulo $q$.

The set of integers which can be written as the sum of four prime cubes has lower density at least $0.009664$. This improves earlier bounds of $0.003125$ by Ren and $0.005776$ by Liu.
