The main motivation for this article is to explore the connections between the existence of certain combinatorial patterns (as in van der Corputs's theorem on arithmetic progressions of length $3$) with well-known tools and theorems for…
Let $\{X,X_n,n\ge 1\}$ be a sequence of identically distributed, negatively dependent (NA) random variables under sub-linear expectations, and denote $S_n=\sum_{i=1}^{n}X_i$, $n\ge 1$. Assume that $h(\cdot)$ is a positive non-decreasing…
We give a short review of recent progress on determining the order of magnitude of moments $\mathbb{E}|\sum_{n \leq x} f(n)|^{2q}$ of random multiplicative functions, and of closely related issues. We hope this can serve as a concise…
Our main result states that when A, B, C are subsets of Z/NZ of respective densities \alpha,\beta,\gamma, the sumset A + B + C contains an arithmetic progression of length at least e^{c(\log N)^c} for densities \alpha > (\log N)^{-2 +…
We show that there exist infinite sets $A = \{a_1,a_2,\dots\}$ and $B = \{b_1,b_2,\dots\}$ of natural numbers such that $a_i+b_j$ is prime whenever $1 \leq i < j$.
We investigate the problem of the distribution of sums of functions of prime numbers located on an arithmetic progression. This problem is closely related to the problem of the distribution of prime numbers on an arithmetic progression.…
We calculate, for a branching random walk $X_n(l)$ to a leaf $l$ at depth $n$ on a binary tree, the positive integer moments of the random variable $\frac{1}{2^{n}}\sum_{l=1}^{2^n}e^{2\beta X_n(l)}$, for $\beta\in\mathbb{R}$. We obtain…
Let $G(X)$ denote the size of the largest gap between consecutive primes below $X$. Answering a question of Erdos, we show that $$G(X) \geq f(X) \frac{\log X \log \log X \log \log \log \log X}{(\log \log \log X)^2},$$ where $f(X)$ is a…
We prove that for every nonnegative integer $m$ there exists an $\varepsilon>0$ such that if $\lambda\in (0,\varepsilon]$ and $x$ is sufficiently large in terms of $m$, then the number of positive integers $n\leq x$ for which the interval…
We consider the first exit time of a Shiryaev-Roberts diffusion with constant positive drift from the interval $[0,A]$ where $A>0$. We show that the moment generating function (Laplace transform) of a suitably standardized version of the…
For an array $\left\{X_{n,j}, \, 1 \leqslant j \leqslant k_{n}, n \geqslant 1 \right\}$ of random variables and a sequence $\{c_{n} \}$ of positive numbers, sufficient conditions are given under which, for all $\varepsilon > 0$,…
We prove the analog of Cram\'er's short intervals theorem for primes in arithmetic progressions and prime ideals, under the relevant Riemann Hypothesis. Both results are uniform in the data of the underlying structure. Our approach is based…
We consider the first exit time $\tau = \min \{n\ge 1 : S_n\le 0\}$ from the positive halfline of a random walk $S_n = \sum_1^n \xi_i, n\ge 1$ with i.d.d. summands having a negative drift ${\mathbb E} \xi = -a< 0$. Let $\xi^+ = \max (0,…
Let $\xi$ and $m$ be integers satisfying $\xi\ne 0$ and $m\ge 3$. We show that for any given integers $a$ and $b$, $b \neq 0$, there are $\frac{\varphi(m)}{2}$ reduced residue classes modulo $m$ each containing infinitely many primes $p$…
We investigate the approximation to the number of primes in arithmetic progressions given by Vaughan. Instead of averaging the expected error term over all residue classes to modules in a given range, here we only consider subsets of…
Two topics of the number theory are discussed in this paper. First, we prove that given each natural number $x\geq10^{3}$, we have \[ |{\rm Li}(x)-\pi(x)|\leq c\sqrt{x}\log x\texttt{ and } \pi(x)={\rm Li}(x)+O(\sqrt{x}\log x) \] where $c$…
Let $(X_i, \mathcal{F}_i)_{i\geq1}$ be a martingale difference sequence in a smooth Banach space. Let $S_n=\sum_{i=1}^nX_i, n\geq 1,$ be the partial sums of $(X_i, \mathcal{F}_i)_{i\geq 1}$. We give upper bounds on the quantity…
In this paper we use techniques first introduced by Florea to improve the asymptotic formula for the first moment of the quadratic Dirichlet L-functions over the rational function field, running over all monic, square-free polynomials of…
In this paper we show that if $A$ is a subset of the primes with positive relative density $\delta$, then $A+A$ must have positive upper density $C_1\delta e^{-C_2(\log(1/\delta))^{2/3}(\log\log(1/\delta))^{1/3}}$ in $\mathbb{N}$. Our…
Let $N$ be the counting function of a Beurling generalized number system and let $\pi$ be the counting function of its primes. We show that the $L^{1}$-condition $$ \int_{1}^{\infty}|\frac{N(x)-ax}{x}|\frac{\mathrm{d}x}{x}<\infty $$ and the…
