Motivated by a question of V. Bergelson and F. K. Richter (2017), we obtain asymptotic formulas for the number of relatively prime tuples composed of positive integers $n\le N$ and integer parts of polynomials evaluated at $n$. The error…

It is the purpose of this thesis to enunciate and prove a collection of explicit results in the theory of prime numbers. First, the problem of primes in short intervals is considered. We prove that there is a prime between consecutive cubes…

Recently, Cilleruelo, Luca, & Baxter proved, for all bases b >= 5, that every natural number is the sum of at most 3 natural numbers whose base-b representation is a palindrome. However, the cases b = 2, 3, 4 were left unresolved. We prove,…

Sarnak obtained the asymptotic formula of the sum of the class numbers of indefinite binary quadratic forms from the prime geodesic theorem for the modular group. In the present paper, we show several asymptotic formulas of partial sums of…

Given a polynomial $f(x_1,x_2,\ldots, x_t)$ in $t$ variables with integer coefficients and a positive integer $n$, let $\alpha(n)$ be the number of integers $0\leq a<n$ such that the polynomial congruence $f(x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_t)\equiv a\…

We deduce some formulas for the spin invariants of the connected sum of an arbitrary 4-manifold X, b^+ _2(X) > 0 $ with $\overline {CP^2}$ in terms of the spin invariants of $X$ and apply this to prove the Van de Ven conjecture.

Since 1772, when Euler first described two methods of obtaining two pairs of biquadrates with equal sums, several methods of solving the diophantine equation $x^4+y^4=z^4+w^4$ have been published. All these methods yield parametric…

Let $N$ be a sufficiently large, odd integer. We prove an asymptotic formula for the number of representations of $N$ as the sum of three primes, one of which is smaller than a given $U$. By inserting the currently best zero-density…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis we obtain asymptotic estimates for the mean value of the number of representations of an integer as a sum of two primes. By proving a corresponding Omega-term, we prove that our result is essentially the best…

Motivated by Euler's observation that the polynomial $x^{2} + x + 41$ takes on prime values for $0 \leq x \leq 39$, we search for large values of $x$ for which $N = x^{2} + x + 41$ is prime. To apply classical primality proving results…
