For an integer $b\geq 2$, a positive integer is called a $b$-Niven number if it is a multiple of the sum of the digits in its base-$b$ representation. In this article, we show that every arithmetic progression contains infinitely many…
For an integer $b \geqslant 2$ and a set $S\subset \{0,\cdots,b-1\}$, we define the Kempner set $\mathcal{K}(S,b)$ to be the set of all non-negative integers whose base-$b$ digital expansions contain only digits from $S$. These well-studied…
Let $b$ be a numeration base. A $b$-Niven number is one that is divisible by the sum of its base $b$ digits. We introduce high degree $b$-Niven numbers. These are $b$-Niven numbers that have a power greater than $1$ that is $b$-Niven…
Recently, Harrington, Litman, and Wong [Bulletin of the Australian Mathematical Society, 2024; arXiv:2303.06534] proved that every arithmetic progression contains infinitely many base-$b$ Niven numbers, for any fixed $b\ge 2$. We use a…
Permutations of the positive integers avoiding arithmetic progressions of length $5$ were constructed in (Davis et al, 1977), implying the existence of permutations of the integers avoiding arithmetic progressions of length $7$. We…
Let $b \ge 2$ be an integer. Not much is known on the representation in base $b$ of prime numbers or of numbers whose prime factors belong to a given, finite set. Among other results, we establish that any sufficiently large integer which…
Let $b$ be an integer greater than or equal to $2$. For any integer $n\in \left[b^{\lambda-1}, b^{\lambda}-1\right]$, we denote by $R_\lambda (n)$ the reverse of $n$ in base $b$, obtained by reversing the order of the digits of $n$. We…
Let $q, m\geq 2$ be integers with $(m,q-1)=1$. Denote by $s_q(n)$ the sum of digits of $n$ in the $q$-ary digital expansion. Further let $p(x)\in mathbb{Z}[x]$ be a polynomial of degree $h\geq 3$ with $p(\mathbb{N})\subset \mathbb{N}$. We…
We show that if besides the primes some other sequences (involving the Liouville function and the primes) have a common distribution level exceeding 0.7231 then for any positive even integer $h$ there are arbitrarily long arithmetic…
The main result of the paper is that assuming that the level $\theta$ of distribution of primes exceeds 1/2, then there exists a positive $d\leq C(\theta)$ such that there are arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions with the property that…
For an integer b>=2, let s_b(n) be the sum of the digits of the integer n when written in base b, and let S_b(N) be the sum of s_b(n) over n=0,...,N-1, so that S_b(N) is the sum of all b-ary digits needed to write the numbers 0,1,...,N-1.…
Let $s_2$ be the sum-of-digits function in base $2$, which returns the number of non-zero binary digits of a nonnegative integer $n$. We study $s_2$ alon g arithmetic subsequences and show that --- up to a shift --- the set of $m$-tuples of…
We describe some of the machinery behind recent progress in establishing infinitely many arithmetic progressions of length $k$ in various sets of integers, in particular in arbitrary dense subsets of the integers, and in the primes.
Let $b \ge 2$ be an integer. Among other results, we establish, in a quantitative form, that any sufficiently large integer which is not a multiple of $b$ cannot have simultaneously only few distinct prime factors and only few nonzero…
For an $n$-bit positive integer $a$ written in binary as $$ a = \sum_{j=0}^{n-1} \varepsilon_{j}(a) \,2^j $$ where, $\varepsilon_j(a) \in \{0,1\}$, $j\in\{0, \ldots, n-1\}$, $\varepsilon_{n-1}(a)=1$, let us define $$ \overleftarrow{a} =…
The aim of the present article is to explore the possibilities of representing positive integers as sums of other positive integers and highlight certain fundamental connections between their multiplicative and additive properties. In…
Prime numbers are one of the most intriguing figures in mathematics. Despite centuries of research, many questions remain still unsolved. In recent years, computer simulations are playing a fundamental role in the study of an immense…
We prove Bombieri-Vinogradov type theorems for primes with a missing digit in their $b$-adic expansion for some large positive integer $b$. The proof is based on the circle method, which relies on the Fourier structure of the integers with…
An overview of the results of new exhaustive computations of gaps between primes in arithmetic progressions is presented. We also give new numerical results for exceptionally large least primes in arithmetic progressions.
Let $S$ be a string of $l$ decimal digits. We give an explicit upper bound on some prime $p$ whose decimal representation contains the string $S$. We also show, as a corollary of the Green-Tao theorem, that there are arbitrarily long…
