We give a brief survey of primitivity in ring theory and in particular look at characterizations of primitive ideals in the prime spectrum for various classes of rings.

We develop further the theory of integrable functions within the theory of relative simplicial motivic measures. We provide a primitive change of variables formula for this theory.

We present a notion of primitive which corresponds exactly with the Riemann integral. We obtain a characterization of the integrability in the sense of Riemann which produces a Fundamental Theorem of Calculus without special assumptions. We…

A recollection of some theoretical developments that preceded and followed the first formulation of supergravity theory is presented. Special emphasis is placed on the impact of supergravity on the search for a unified theory of fundamental…

The goal of this paper is to study primitive groups that are contained in the union of maximal (in the symmetric group) imprimitive groups. The study of types of permutations that appear inside primitive groups goes back to the origins of…

Primitive recursion is a mature, well-understood topic in the theory and practice of programming. Yet its dual, primitive corecursion, is underappreciated and still seen as exotic. We aim to put them both on equal footing by giving a…

A transitive permutation group is semiprimitive if each of its normal subgroups is transitive or semiregular. Interest in this class of groups is motivated by two sources: problems arising in universal algebra related to collapsing monoids…

As users advance in their search within a system, different queries are conducted and various results are examined by them. These objects form an implicit individual library representing the acquired knowledge. In our research we aim to…

A factorization of a permutation into transpositions is called "primitive" if its factors are weakly ordered. We discuss the problem of enumerating primitive factorizations of permutations, and its place in the hierarchy of previously…

We survey the classical results on the prime number theorem

The purpose of this article is to delve into the properties of invariants. The properties, explained in [2], reveal new ways to develop algorithms that allow us to test the primality of a number. In this article, some of these are shown,…

We survey the classical results of the Dirichlet Approximation Theorem.

In this paper we will study integrability of distributions whose primitives are left regulated functions and locally or globally integrable in the Henstock--Kurzweil, Lebesgue or Riemann sense. Corresponding spaces of distributions and…

We give a new proof of Fitzgerald's criterion for primitive polynomials over a finite field. Existing proofs essentially use the theory of linear recurrences over finite fields. Here, we give a much shorter and self-contained proof which…

We define a primitive index of an integer in a sequence to be the index of the term with the integer as a primitive divisor. For the sequences $k^u+h^u$ and $k^u-h^u$, we discern a formula to find the primitive indexes of any composite…

This paper presents a primitive $n$th root of unity in $\mathbb C$. The approach is very elementary and avoids the following: the complex exponential function, trigonometry, and group theory. It also avoids differentiation, integration, and…

This paper studies simplicity, primitivity and semiprimitivity of algebras associated to \'etale groupoids. Applications to inverse semigroup algebras are presented. The results also recover the semiprimitivity of Leavitt path algebras and…

We approach the Riemann integral via generalized primitives to give a new proof for a general result on change of variable originally proven by Kestelman and Davies. Our proof is similar to Kestelman's, but we hope readers will find it…

We develop the theory of motivic integration for formal schemes

We present a replacement for traditional Riemann integrals in undergraduate calculus, which supplements naive precalculus and at the same time opens a way to more sophisticated theories such as Lebesgue integration.
