Let $S_{(x,y]} = \left\{\frac{p_n}{p_{n+1}-2} :~ n\in I \right\}$, where $I = \left\{n :~ x<p_n \le y \right\}$, $p_n$ is the $n$-th prime and $x, y \in \mathbb{R}_{>0}$. If $M_\alpha(x,y)$ denotes the $\alpha$-power mean of the elements of…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author(s), due a crucial sign error in Thm. 11.
We present some new ideas on important problems related to primes. The topics of our discussion are: simple formulae for primes, twin primes, Sophie Germain primes, prime tuples less than or equal to a predefined number, and their…
Some mistaken reasonings at the end of the paper omitted.
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…
Let $p\equiv 8\mod 9$ be a prime. In this paper we give a sufficient condition such that at least one of $p$ and $p^2$ is the sum of two rational cubes. This is the first general result on the $8$ case of the so-called Sylvester conjecture.
This paper initially aimed at proposing a proof that quasi-dense logics have f.m.p, but it contains a major flaw, unfixable.
Recent results of Bourgain and Shparlinski imply that for almost all primes $p$ there is a multiple $mp$ that can be written in binary as $mp= 1+2^{m_1}+ \cdots +2^{m_k}, \quad 1\leq m_1 < \cdots < m_k,$ with $k=66$ or $k=16$, respectively.…
We correct the proofs of the main theorems in our paper "Limit theorems for Betti numbers of random simplicial complexes".
The paper by G. Liu [arxiv:2109.02561] contains an error. In this note, I give a brief review of the problem and indicate what the error is.
We give a more strong heuristic justification of our conjecture on the excess of the odious primes.
For an irrational $\alpha\in \mathbb{R}$, we consider additive problems with the set of primes satisfying $\lVert\alpha p\rVert\leq \frac{1}{p^\tau}$ for some fixed $\tau>0$. In particular, we show that there exist infinitely many…
Let $\lfloor t\rfloor$ denote the integer part of $t\in\mathbb{R}$ and $\|x\|$ the distance from $x$ to the nearest integer. Suppose that $1/2<\gamma_2<\gamma_1<1$ are two fixed constants. In this paper, it is proved that, whenever $\alpha$…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author since the proof of Lemma 8 is not correct.
We address two errors made in our paper arXiv:1511.03423. The most significant error is in Theorem 1.1. We repair this error, and show that the main result, Theorem 2.5 of arXiv:1511.03423, is true. The second error is in one of our…
This paper proves a 2017 conjecture of De Loera, La Haye, Oliveros, and Rold\'an-Pensado that the "prime grid" $\big\{(p,q) \in \mathbb{Z}^2 : \text{$p$ and $q$ are prime}\big\} \subseteq \mathbb{R}^2$ contains empty polygons with…
In this short paper we prove that the square of an odd prime number cannot be a very perfect number.
It is shown that there exist infinitely many triangular numbers (congruent to 3 mod 12) which cannot be the distance between two perfect numbers.
In this note, we demonstrate that an incorrect statement has been propagated in multiple papers, stemming from the substitution of ``lim'' with ``limsup'' for a sequence in Lemma 1.3 of the paper [J. Schu: Weak and strong convergence to…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author, due to a crucial error in the proof of Lemma 3.1.
