We prove that every odd number $N$ greater than 1 can be expressed as the sum of at most five primes, improving the result of Ramar\'e that every even natural number can be expressed as the sum of at most six primes. We follow the circle…

We show that for any natural number $n$ satisfying $n\equiv 4 \mod 8$ and $n\not\equiv 0 \mod 5$, and for any odd integer $t\geq \frac{n+6}{2}$ there are infinitely many Salem numbers ${\alpha}$ of degree $2t$ such that ${\alpha}^n-1$ is a…

As far as algebraic properties are concerned, the usual addition on the class of ordinal numbers is not really well behaved; for example, it is not commutative, nor left cancellative etc. In a few cases, the natural Hessemberg sum is a…

The aim of this note is to show that any even perfect number, other than $6$, can be written as the sum of 5 cubes of natural numbers. We also conjecture that any even perfect number, other than $6$, can be written as the sum of only 3…

In order to prove irrationality of \sqrt{2} by using only decimal expansions (and not fractions), we develop in detail a model of real numbers based on infinite decimals and arithmetic operations with them.

In this paper we consider finite 2-groups with odd number of real conjugacy classes. On one hand we show that if $k$ is an odd natural number less than 24, then there are only finitely many finite 2-groups with exactly $k$ real conjugacy…

In this note, we show that if $N$ is an odd perfect number and $q^{\alpha}$ is some prime power exactly dividing it, then $\sigma(N/q^{\alpha})/q^{\alpha}>5$. In general, we also show that if $\sigma(N/q^{\alpha})/q^{\alpha}<K$, where $K$…

Euler showed that if an odd perfect number exists, it must be of the form $N = p^\alpha q_{1}^{2\beta_{1}}$ $\ldots$ $q_{k}^{2\beta_{k}}$, where $p, q_{1}, \ldots, q_k$ are distinct odd primes, $\alpha$, $\beta_{i} \geq 1$, for $1 \leq i…

We prove that an odd number is an Euler pseudoprime for exactly one half of the admissible bases if and only if it is a special Carmichael number.

We prove that for every irrational number $\alpha$, real number $\beta$, real number $c$ satisfying $1<c<9/8$ and positive real number $\theta$ satisfying $\theta<(9/c-8)/10$, there exist infinitely many primes of the form…

We study pairs of consecutive odd numbers through a straightforward indexing. We focus in particular on twin primes and their distribution. With a counting argument, we calculate the limit of an alternating sum that is equal to 1 which…

By extending a construction due to Gross and McMullen [2], we show that for any odd integer n and for any even integer d>n+2 there are infinitely many Salem numbers $\alpha$ of degree d such that $\alpha^n-1$ is a unit. A similar result is…

A perfect number is a positive integer $N$ such that the sum of all the positive divisors of $N$ equals $2N$, denoted by $\sigma(N) = 2N$. The question of the existence of odd perfect numbers (OPNs) is one of the longest unsolved problems…

The fibbinary numbers are positive integers whose binary representation contains no consecutive ones. We prove the following result: If the $j$th odd fibbinary is the $n$th \emph{odd} fibbinary number, then $j = \lfloor n\phi^2 \rfloor -…

Let $N$ be an odd perfect number. Let $\omega(N)$ be the number of distinct prime factors of $N$ and let $\Omega(N)$ be the total number (counting multiplicity) of prime factors of $N$. We prove that $\frac{99}{37}\omega(N) - \frac{187}{37}…

Although there are infinitely many knots with superbridge index n for every even integer n>2, there are only finitely many knots with superbridge index 3.

We shall show that there is no odd perfect number of the form $2^n+1$ or $n^n+1$.

Let $p^k m^2$ be an odd perfect number with special prime $p$. In this article, we provide an alternative proof for the biconditional that $\sigma(m^2) \equiv 1 \pmod 4$ holds if and only if $p \equiv k \pmod 8$. We then give an application…

Natural numbers from 0 to 11111 are written in terms of 1 to 9 in two different ways. The first one in increasing order of 1 to 9, and the second one in decreasing order. This is done by using the operations of addition, multiplication,…

Natural numbers satisfying an unusual property are mentioned by the author in [5], in which their infinitude is also proved. In this paper, we start with an arbitrary natural number which is not a multiple of 10 and non-palindromic, form…
