The betweenness function $bet(n)$ is the minimum number of total orderings of $n$ objects such that for any three distinct objects $a$, $b$ and $c$, there is an ordering in which $b$ is between $a$ and $c$. The nonbetweenness function…

When $k>1$ and $n$ is the product of the smallest $k$ primes, the $(k+1)$-st smallest prime is the least divisor exceeding $1$ of $n^{n^n}-1$. This variant of Euclid's prime generator is discussed with some of its cousins.

The Carmichael lambda function $\lambda(n)$ is defined to be the smallest positive integer $m$ such that $a^m$ is congruent to 1 modulo $n,$ for all $a$ and $n$ relatively prime. The function $\lambda_k(n)$ is defined to be the $k$th…

The calculation of the minimum of the effective potential using the zeta function method is extremely advantagous, because the zeta function is regular at $s=0$ and we gain immediately a finite result for the effective potential without the…

A positive integer $n$ is said to be $k$-layered if its divisors can be partitioned into $k$ sets with equal sum. In this paper, we start the systematic study of these class of numbers. In particular, we state some algorithms to find some…

Write $T(n)$ as the sum of the reciprocals of the primes which divide $n$. Write $H(n) = \prod_{p|n}p/(p-1)$ where the product is over the prime divisors of $n$. We prove new bounds for $T(n)$ and $H(n)$ in terms of the smallest prime…
