Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis we prove that the interval $[N, N + H]$ contains an integer which is a sum of a prime and two squares of primes provided that $H \ge C (\log N)^{4}$, where $C > 0$ is an effective constant.
We show that there are short intervals $[x,x+y]$ containing $\gg y^{1/10}$ numbers expressible as the sum of two squares, which is many more than the average when $y=o( (\log{x})^{5/9})$. We obtain similar results for sums of two squares in…
In this article, we collect the recent results concerning the representations of integers as sums of an even number of squares that are inspired by conjectures of Kac and Wakimoto. We start with a sketch of Milne's proof of two of these…
In this paper, we investigate sums of four squares of integers whose prime factorizations are restricted, making progress towards a conjecture of Sun that states that two of the integers may be restricted to the forms $2^a3^b$ and $2^c5^d$.…
Sums of squares of $|\zeta(1/2+it)|$ over short intervals are investigated. Known upper bounds for the fourth and twelfth moment of $|\zeta(1/2+it)|$ are derived. A discussion concerning other possibilities for the estimation of higher…
In this work we show that based on a conjecture for the pair correlation of integers representable as sums of two squares, which was first suggested by Connors and Keating and reformulated here, the second moment of the distribution of the…
In 2016, while studying restricted sums of integral squares, Sun posed the following conjecture: Every positive integer $n$ can be written as $x^2+y^2+z^2+w^2$ $(x,y,z,w\in\mathbb{N}=\{0,1,\cdots\})$ with $x+3y$ a square. Meanwhile, he also…
In this paper, we prove some results of restricted sums of four squares using arithmetic of quaternions in the ring of Lipschitz integers. For example, we show that every nonnegative integer $n$ can be written as $x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}+t^{2}$…
This paper is concerned with finite sequences of integers that may be written as sums of squares of two nonzero integers. We first find infinitely many integers $n$ such that $n, n+h$ and $n+k$ are all sums of two squares where $h$ and $k$…
For $n,\,d\ge1$ let $p(n,2d)$ denote the smallest number $p$ such that every sum of squares of forms of degree $d$ in $\mathbb{R}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ is a sum of $p$ squares. We establish lower bounds for these numbers that are considerably…
An almost square of type 2 is an integer $n$ that can be factored in two different ways as $n = a_1 b_1 = a_2 b_2$ with $a_1$, $a_2$, $b_1$, $b_2 \approx \sqrt{n}$. In this paper, we shall improve upon previous result on short intervals…
Cusick's conjecture on the binary sum of digits $s(n)$ of a nonnegative integer $n$ states the following: for all nonnegative integers $t$ we have \[ c_t=\lim_{N\rightarrow\infty}\frac 1N\left\lvert\{n<N:s(n+t)\geq s(n)\}\right\rvert>1/2.…
We connect the existence of a ternary classical universal quadratic form over a totally real number field $K$ with the property that all totally positive multiples of 2 are sums of squares (if $K$ does not contain $\sqrt 2$ or contains a…
Let $r_3(n)$ be the number of representations of a positive integer $n$ as a sum of three squares of integers. We give two distinct proofs of a conjecture of Wagon concerning the asymptotic value of the mean square of $r_3(n)$.
We prove that for almost all $N$ there is a sum of four fourth powers in the interval $(N-N^\gamma,N]$, for all $\gamma>4059/16384=0.24774..$.
In this paper, we prove a conjecture of Chan and Chua for the number of representations of integers as sums of 8s integral squares. The proof uses a theorem of Imamo\={g}lu and Kohnen, and the double shuffle relations satisfied by the…
In this article, we study a sum of squares of integers except for a fixed one. For any nonnegative integer $n$, we find the minimum number of squares of integers except for $n$ whose sums represent all positive integers that are represented…
We study short intervals which contain an ``almost square'', an integer $n$ that can be factored as $n = ab$ with $a$, $b$ close to $\sqrt{n}$. This is related to the problem on distribution of $n^2 \alpha \pmod 1$ and the problem on gaps…
Fici and Saarela ([2]) conjectured that a binary word of length n contains at least $\lfloor n/4 \rfloor$ abelian squares. We slightly extend this conjecture and show that it holds in some special cases. In all other cases we have the…
We show that every $3$-uniform hypergraph $H=(V,E)$ with $|V(H)|=n$ and minimum pair degree at least $(4/5+o(1))n$ contains a squared Hamiltonian cycle. This may be regarded as a first step towards a hypergraph version of the P\'osa-Seymour…
