For a natural number $k>1$, let $f_k(n)$ denote the number of distinct representations of a natural number $n$ of the form $p^k+q^k$ for primes $p,q$. We prove that, for all $k>1$, $$\limsup_{n\to\infty}f_k(n)=\infty.$$ This positively…
The free semigroup $\mathcal{F}$ over a finite alphabet $\mathcal{A}$ is the set of all finite words with letters from $\mathcal{A}$ equipped with the operation of concatenation. A subset $S$ of $\mathcal{F}$ is $k$-product-free if no…
Let $p_n$ is the $n$-th prime. With help of the Cram\'er-like model, we prove that the set of intervals of the form $(2p_n,\enskip2p_{n+1})$ containing at list 3 primes has a positive density with respect to the set of all intervals of such…
We establish that every set of $k=10$ natural numbers determines at least $30$ distinct pairwise sums or at least $30$ distinct pairwise products, as well as the analogous result for $k=11$ and at least $34$ sums/products, with sharpness…
Given two sets of positive integers $A$ and $B$, let $AB := \{ab : a \in A,\, b \in B\}$ be their product set and put $A^k := A \cdots A$ ($k$ times $A$) for any positive integer $k$. Moreover, for every positive integer $n$ and every…
We show that any subset of the natural numbers with positive logarithmic Banach density contains a set that is within a factor of two of a geometric progression, improving the bound on a previous result of the authors. Density conditions on…
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,…
We show that the number of positive integers $n\leq N$ such that $\mathbb{Z}/(n^2+n+1)\mathbb{Z}$ contains a perfect difference set is asymptotically $N/\log{N}$.
Let $p_n$ be $n$th prime, and let $(S_n)_{n=1}^\infty:=(S_n)$ be the sequence of the sums of the first $2n$ consecutive primes, that is, $S_n=\sum_{k=1}^{2n}p_k$ with $n=1,2,\ldots$. Heuristic arguments supported by the corresponding…
The classical theorem of Schnirelmann states that the primes are an additive basis for the integers. In this paper we consider the analogous multiplicative setting of the cyclic group $\left(\mathbb{Z}/ q\mathbb{Z}\right)^{\times}$, and…
Let $k\geq2$ and $s$ be positive integers. Let $\theta\in(0,1)$ be a real number. In this paper, we establish that if $s>k(k+1)$ and $\theta>0.55$, then every sufficiently large natural number $n$, subjects to certain congruence conditions,…
Let $\sigma(n)$ and $\gamma(n)$ denote the sum of divisors and the product of distinct prime divisors of $n$ respectively. We shall show that, if $n\neq 1, 1782$ and $\sigma(n)=(\gamma(n))^2$, then there exist odd (not necessarily distinct)…
In this work we prove that the set of the difference of primes is a $\Delta_r^*$-set. The work is based on the recent dramatic new developments in the study of bounded gaps between primes, reached by Zhang, Maynard and Tao.
Let $\mathcal{P}_r$ denote an almost-prime with at most $r$ prime factors, counted according to multiplicity. In this paper, it is proved that for $\alpha\in\mathbb{R}\backslash\mathbb{Q},\,\beta\in\mathbb{R}$ and $0<\theta<10/1561$, there…
We prove that the set of normalized differences between primes, defined as $S = \{(p-q)/(p+q) : p > q \text{ are primes}\}$, is dense in the open unit interval $(0,1)$. Our proof provides an explicit construction algorithm with quantitative…
Motivated by questions asked by Erdos, we prove that any set $A\subset{\mathbb N}$ with positive upper density contains, for any $k\in{\mathbb N}$, a sumset $B_1+\cdots+B_k$, where $B_1,\dots,B_k\subset{\mathbb N}$ are infinite. Our proof…
Rubinstein and Sarnak have shown, conditional on the Riemann hypothesis (RH) and the linear independence hypothesis (LI) on the non-real zeros of $\zeta(s)$, that the set of real numbers $x\ge2$ for which $\pi(x)>$ li$(x)$ has a logarithmic…
Erd\H{o}s conjectured that for any set $A\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ with positive lower asymptotic density, there are infinite sets $B,C\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ such that $B+C\subseteq A$. We verify Erd\H{o}s' conjecture in the case that $A$ has…
We define a new class of sets -- stable sets -- of primes in number fields. For example, Chebotarev sets $P_{M/K}(\sigma)$, with $M/K$ Galois and $\sigma \in \Gal(M/K)$, are very often stable. These sets have positive (but arbitrary small)…
Let $P(x) \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ be a polynomial. We give an easy and new proof of the fact that the set of primes $p$ such that $p \mid P(n)$, for some $n \in \mathbb{Z}$, is infinite. We also get analog of this result for some special…
