Let $f$ be a completely multiplicative function that assumes values inside the unit disc. We show that if $\sum_{n<x} f(n) \ll x/(\log x)^A$, $x>2$, for some $A>2$, then either $f(p)$ is small on average or $f$ pretends to be $\mu(n)n^{it}$…
Some inequalities for the ratios of generalized digamma functions are presented. The approache makes use of the series representations of the $(q,k)$-digamma and $(p,q)$-digamma functions.
Let $\sigma(n)$ denotes the sum of divisors function of a positive integer $n$. Robin proved that the Riemann hypothesis is true if and only if the inequality $\sigma(n) < e^{\gamma}n \log \log n$ holds for every positive integer $n \geq…
We show that, for almost all $x$, the interval $(x, x+(\log x)^{2.1}]$ contains products of exactly two primes. This improves on a work of the second author that had $3.51$ in place of $2.1$. To obtain this improvement, we prove a new type…
We study arithmetic inequalities for multiplicative, sub(super)-multiplicative, sub(super)-homogeneous functions. Applications for the classical arithmetic functions are pointed out.
We consider the function $G(n)=\frac{\sigma(n)}{n\log\log n}$ (where $\sigma(n)=\sum_{d|n}d$) and set an imposed condition on its argument $n$, the fulfillment of which is sufficient for the existence of a prime $p$, at which $G(np)>G(n)$.…
We consider the class of all non-negative on $\mathbb{R_+}$ functions such that each of them satisfies the Reverse H\"older Inequality uniformly over all intervals with some constant the minimum value of which can be regarded as the…
We derive heuristically approximate formulas for the negative $k$--moments $M_{-k}(x)$ of the gaps between consecutive primes$<x $ represented directly by $\pi(x)$ --- the number of primes up to $x$. In particular we propose an analytical…
This note improves the best known exponent 1/12 in the prime field sum-product inequality (for small sets) to 1/11, modulo a logarithmic factor.
We improve on all the results of [13] by incorporating the finite range computations performed since then by several authors. Thus we have \begin{align*} \Bigg|\sum_{n\le X}\mu(n)\Bigg| &\le \frac{0.006688\,X}{\log X},&&\text{for } X\ge…
The following theorem is proved. {\bf Theorem.} {\it Let $P(x) = \sum_{k=0}^{2n} a_k x^k$ be a polynomial with positive coefficients. If the inequalities $\frac{a_{2k+1}^2}{a_{2k}a_{2k+ 2}} < \frac{1}{cos^2(\frac{\pi}{n+2})} $ hold for all…
We find a lower bound for the number of Chen primes in the arithmetic progression $a \bmod q$, where $(a,q)=(a+2,q)=1$. Our estimate is uniform for $q \leq \log^M x$, where $M>0$ is fixed.
Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, we investigate the distribution of gaps between the zeros of \xi'(s). We prove that a positive proportion of gaps are less than 0.796 times the average spacing and, in the other direction, a positive…
We show that the existence of arithmetic progressions with few primes, with a quantitative bound on "few", implies the existence of larger gaps between primes less than x than is currently known unconditionally. In particular, we derive…
We prove an isomorphism between the finite domain from 1 up to the product of the first n primes and the new defined set of prime modular numbers. This definition provides some insights about relative prime numbers. We provide an inverse…
Let $\alpha_1,\alpha_2$ be non-zero algebraic numbers such that $\frac{\log \alpha_2}{\log\alpha_1}\notin\mathbb{Q}$ and let $\beta$ be a quadratic irrational number. In this article, we prove that the values of two relatively prime…
We investigate the sums $\sum_{n\le X, (n,q)=1}\frac{\mu(n)}{n^s}\log^k\left(\frac{X}{n}\right)$, where $k\in\{0,1\}$, $s\in\mathbb{C}$, $\Re s>0$. Our goal is to obtain explicit asymptotic estimations for these quantities. To achieve this,…
We study sums of a random multiplicative function; this is an example, of number-theoretic interest, of sums of products of independent random variables (chaoses). Using martingale methods, we establish a normal approximation for the sum…
Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we prove that for all $x\geq 2$, there exists at least one even integer within the interval $(x, x+123\log^2x]$, that can be expressed as the sum of two primes. This result is an improvement over the recent…
In this paper, we extend some estimates of the left hand side of a Hermite- Hadamard type inequality for nonconvex functions whose derivatives absolute values are preinvex and log-preinvex.
