For a given positive integer $k$, we prove that there are at least $x^{1/2-o(1)}$ integers $d\leq x$ such that the real quadratic fields $\mathbb Q(\sqrt{d+1}),\dots,\mathbb Q(\sqrt{d+k})$ have class numbers essentially as large as…
For any odd prime $p,$ we construct an infinite family of pairs of imaginary quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d}),\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d+1})$ whose class numbers are both divisible by $p.$ One of our theorems settles Iizuka's conjecture for…
We prove existence and regularity results for weak solutions of non linear elliptic systems with non variational structure satisfying $(p,q)$-growth conditions. In particular we are able to prove higher differentiability results under a…
Let $p$ be an odd prime. In this paper we investigate quadratic residues modulo $p$ and related permutations, congruences and identities. If $a_1<\ldots<a_{(p-1)/2}$ are all the quadratic residues modulo $p$ among $1,\ldots,p-1$, then the…
In this paper, we consider the problem of determining the density of monic polynomials over $\mathbb{Z}_p$ with squarefree discriminant over various subsets of the set of monic polynomials over $\mathbb{Z}_p$ of fixed degree. We compute the…
Many combinatorial sequences (for example, the Catalan and Motzkin numbers) may be expressed as the constant term of $P(x)^k Q(x)$, for some Laurent polynomials $P(x)$ and $Q(x)$ in the variable $x$ with integer coefficients. Denoting such…
For an odd prime $p$ and integers $d, k, m$ with gcd$(p,d)=1$ and $2\leq k\leq \frac{p-1}{2}$, we consider the determinant \begin{equation*} S_{m,k}(d,p) = \left|(\alpha_i - \alpha_j)^m\right|_{1 \leq i,j \leq \frac{p-1}{k}},…
We show that for any relatively prime integers $1\leq p<q$ and for any finite $A \subset \mathbb{Z}$ one has $$|p \cdot A + q \cdot A | \geq (p + q) |A| - (pq)^{(p+q-3)(p+q) + 1}.$$
Let p > 2 be a prime number and let N be any rational integer. We consider the p-class groups Cl(L), Cl(M) of the fields $L:=Q(N^{1/p})$ and $M:=Q(N^{1/p},\mu_p)$, by comparison with the p-torsion groups T(L) and T(M) of the abelian…
In this paper we study the ratio between the number of $p$-elements and the order of a Sylow $p$-subgroup of a finite group $G$. As well known, this ratio is a positive integer and we conjecture that, for every group $G$, it is at least the…
Quadratic conjecture is a strengthening of oliver's $p$-group conjecture. Let $G$ be a $p$-group of maximal class of order $p^n$. We prove that if $n\le 8$ or $n\ge \max\{2p-6,p+2\}$ then $G$ satisfies Quadratic Conjecture. Hence quadratic…
Let $K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-p})$ be a quadratic field for an odd prime $p$. We show that there exist infinitely many primes $p$ for which no elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}$ has torsion subgroup $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}\times…
A conjecture of Erd\H{o}s states that, for any large prime $q$, every reduced residue class $\pmod q$ can be represented as a product $p_1p_2$ of two primes $p_1,p_2\leq q$. We establish a ternary version of this conjecture, showing that,…
Let $P$ and $T$ be disjoint sets of prime numbers with $T$ finite. A simple formula is given for the natural density of the set of square-free numbers which are divisible by all of the primes in $T$ and by none of the primes in $P$. If $P$…
This is the eighth and final paper in a series giving a proof of the Kepler conjecture, which asserts that the density of a packing of congruent spheres in three dimensions is never greater than $\pi/\sqrt{18}\approx 0.74048...$. This is…
In this set of three companion manuscripts/articles, we unveil our new results on primality testing and reveal new primality testing algorithms enabled by those results. The results have been classified (and referred to) as…
In this paper, we determine the 2-rank of the class group of certain classes of real cyclic quartic number fields. Precisely, we consider the case in which the quadratic subfield is Q(\sqrt{l}) with l=2 or a prime congruent to 1 mod 8.
We investigate the race between prime numbers in many residue classes modulo $q$, assuming the standard conjectures GRH and LI. Among our results we exhibit, for the first time, prime races modulo $q$ with $n$ competitor classes where the…
We estimate the asymptotic density of the set $\bar{A}$ of primes $p$ satisfying the constraint that $p+1$ and $p-1$ have only one prime divisor larger than $3$. We also estimate the density of a maximal subset $\bar{B} \subset \bar{A}$…
A classical result in number theory is Dirichlet's theorem on the density of primes in an arithmetic progression. We prove a similar result for numbers with exactly k prime factors for k>1. Building upon a proof by E.M. Wright in 1954, we…
