A categoricity theorem is established for patterns of resemblance of order 2 showing that the order in which patterns arise in a wide range of hierarchies is the same.

Let $[\, \cdot\,]$ be the floor function. In the present paper we prove that when $1<c<\frac{12}{11}$ and $\theta>1$ is a fixed, then there exist infinitely many prime numbers of the form $[n^c \tan^\theta(\log n)]$.

For every sufficiently large integer $R$, there exists a Carmichael number with exactly $R$ prime factors.

Let $p$ be a prime number, and $h$ a positive integer such that $\gcd(p,h)=1$. We prove, without invoking Dirichlet's theorem, that the arithmetic progression $p\left(\mathbf{N}\cup \{0\}\right)+h$ contains infinitely many prime numbers.…

Let $k\ge 1$ be an integer, and let $P= (f_1(x), \ldots, f_k(x) )$ be $k$ admissible linear polynomials over the integers, or \textit{the pattern}. We present two algorithms that find all integers $x$ where $\max{ \{f_i(x) \} } \le n$ and…

The Piatetski-Shapiro sequences are of the form $\mathcal{N}_{c} := (\lfloor n^{c} \rfloor)_{n=1}^\infty$, where $\lfloor \cdot \rfloor$ is the integer part. It is expected that there are infinitely many primes in a Piatetski-Shapiro…

While the prime numbers have been subject to mathematical inquiry since the ancient Greeks, the accumulated effort of understanding these numbers has - as Marcus du Sautoy recently phrased it - 'not revealed the origins of what makes the…

In this paper, we prove that for any $A>0$ there exist infinitely many primes $p$ for which sums of the Legendre symbol modulo $p$ over an interval of length $(\ln p)^A$ can take large values.

Suppose that $\alpha,\beta\in\mathbb{R}$. Let $\alpha\geqslant1$ and $c$ be a real number in the range $1<c< 12/11$. In this paper, it is proved that there exist infinitely many primes in the generalized Piatetski--Shapiro sequence, which…

In this note, we approximate the average of prime powers in the decomposition of $n!$ into prime numbers.

This paper presents a new technique of generating large prime numbers using a smaller one by employing Goldbach partitions. Experiments are presented showing how this method produces candidate prime numbers that are subsequently tested…

We develop a theory of arithmetic Newton polygons of higher order, that provides the factorization of a separable polynomial over a $p$-adic field, together with relevant arithmetic information about the fields generated by the irreducible…

Let $F_p$ be the field of a prime order $p$. Then for any positive integer $n>1$, for any $\epsilon>0$, and for any subset $A$ of $F_p$, every element of $F_p$ can be represented as a sum of $N$ elements, each of them is a product of $n$…

In this paper we study a sequence involving the prime numbers by deriving two asymptotic formulas and finding new upper and lower bounds, which improve the currently known estimates.

Let $k \ge 2$ and $s$ be positive integers, and let $n$ be a large positive integer subject to certain local conditions. We prove that if $s \ge k^2+k+1$ and $\theta > 31/40$, then $n$ can be expressed as a sum $p_1^k + \dots + p_s^k$,…

We call an integer N>1 primover to base a if it either prime or overpseudoprime to base a. We prove, in particular, that every Fermat number is primover to base 2. We also indicate a simple process of receiving of primover divisors of…

In this paper we prove two results. The first theorem uses a paper of Kim \cite{K} to show that for fixed primes $p_1,...,p_k$, and for fixed integers $m_1,...,m_k$, with $p_i\not|m_i$, the numbers $(e_{p_1}(n),...,e_{p_k}(n))$ are…

Let $n \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geqslant 2}$. By $P(n)$ we denote the set of all prime divisors of the integers in the sequence $n, n^2-1, (n^2-1)^2-1, \dots$. We ask whether the set $P(n)$ determines $n$ uniquely under the assumption that $n \neq…

This note presents a result on the maximal prime gap of the form p_(n+1) - p_n <= C(log p_n)^(1+e), where C > 0 is a constant, for any arbitrarily small real number e > 0, and all sufficiently large integer n > n_0. Equivalently, the result…

We found a regularity of the behavior of primes that allows to represent both prime and natural numbers as infinite matrices with a common formation rule of their rows. This regularity determines a new class of infinite cyclic groups that…
