Upper and lower bounds are derived for the mode(s) of the negative binomial distribution of order k, type I, with parameters r and p, which are employed to establish an explicit formula for the mode(s) in terms of r and k when p equals 0.5.…
This paper studies explicit and theoretical bounds for several interesting quantities in number theory, conditionally on the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis. Specifically, we improve the existing explicit bounds for the least quadratic…
The Katz-Sarnak philosophy predicts that statistics of zeros of families of L-functions are strikingly universal. However, subtle arithmetical differences between families of the same symmetry type can be detected by calculating lower-order…
In this paper, if prime $p\equiv 3\pmod 4$ is sufficiently large then we prove an upper bound on the number of occurences of any arbitrary pattern of quadratic residues and nonresidues of length $k$ as $k$ tends to $\lceil \log_2 p\rceil$.…
We give bounds for the number and the size of the primes $p$ such that a reduction modulo $p$ of a system of multivariate polynomials over the integers with a finite number $T$ of complex zeros, does not have exactly $T$ zeros over the…
Let p be a prime. Uniform pro-p groups play a central role in the theory of p-adic Lie groups. Indeed, a topological group admits the structure of a p-adic Lie group if and only if it contains an open pro-p subgroup which is uniform.…
For $m,q \in \mathbb{N}$, we call an $m$-tuple $(a_1,\ldots,a_m) \in \prod_{i=1}^m (\mathbb{Z}/q\mathbb{Z})^\times$ good if there are infinitely many consecutive primes $p_1,\ldots,p_m$ satisfying $p_i \equiv a_i \pmod{q}$ for all $i$. We…
We obtain new lower bounds on the number of smooth squarefree integers up to $x$ in residue classes modulo a prime $p$, relatively large compared to $x$, which in some ranges of $p$ and $x$ improve that of A. Balog and C. Pomerance (1992).…
The Selberg sieve provides majorants for certain arithmetic sequences, such as the primes and the twin primes. We prove an L^2-L^p restriction theorem for majorants of this type. An immediate application is to the estimation of exponential…
Let $n$ be an arbitrary integer, let $p$ be a prime factor of $n$. Denote by $\omega_1$ the $p^{th}$ primitive unity root, $\omega_1:=e^{\frac{2\pi i}{p}}$. Define $\omega_i:=\omega_1^i$ for $0\leq i\leq p-1$ and…
Let $f(x)=x^n+a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+\dots+a_0$ be an irreducible polynomial with integer coefficients. For a prime $p$ for which $f(x)$ is fully splitting modulo $ p$, we consider $n$ roots $r_i$ of $f(x)\equiv 0\bmod p$ with $0 \le r_1\le\dots\le…
Let $g_1, \dots , g_M$ be additive functions for which there exist nonconstant polynomials $G_1, \dots , G_M$ satisfying $g_i(p) = G_i(p)$ for all primes $p$ and all $i \in \{1, \dots , M\}$. Under fairly general and nearly optimal…
For a fixed rational number g, not equal to -1,0 or 1 and integers a and d we consider the set of primes p for which the order of g(mod p) is congruent to a(mod d). For d=4 and d=3 it is shown that, under the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis,…
In this paper we show there exists an infinite family of number fields $L$, Galois over $\mathbb{Q}$, for which the smallest prime $p$ of $\mathbb{Q}$ which splits completely in $L$ has size at least $( \log(|D_L|) )^{2+o(1)}$. This gives a…
We prove that the primes below $x$ are, on average, equidistributed in arithmetic progressions to smooth moduli of size up to $x^{1/2+1/40-\epsilon}$. The exponent of distribution $\tfrac{1}{2} + \tfrac{1}{40}$ improves on a result of…
In this paper, we introduce and study a variant of Kummer's notion of (ir)regularity of primes which we call G-irregularity. It is based on Genocchi numbers $G_n$, rather than Bernoulli number $B_n.$ We say that an odd prime $p$ is…
We establish asymptotic upper bounds on the number of zeros modulo $p$ of certain polynomials with integer coefficients, with $p$ prime numbers arbitrarily large. The polynomials we consider have degree of size $p$ and are obtained by…
Under ABC, Silverman showed that there are infinitely many non-Wieferich primes with respect to any (non-trivial) base $a$. Recently Srinivas and Subramani proved an analogous result over number fields with trivial class group. In the first…
We obtain a uniform $L^{\infty}(\Omega)$ a priori bound, for any positive weak solutions to elliptic problem with a nonlinearity $f$ slightly subcritical, slightly superlinear, and regularly varying. To achieve our result, we first obtain a…
In this paper, we employ a version of Stepanov's method, developed by Hanson and Petridis, to prove several results on additive irreducibility of multiplicative subgroups in finite fields of prime order $p$. Specifically, we show that if a…
