Let $n$ be a primitive non-deficient number where $n=p_1^{a_1}p_2^{a_2} \cdots p_k^{a_k}$ where $p_1, p_2 \cdots p_k$ are distinct primes. We prove that there exists an $i$ such that $$p_i^{a_i+1} < 2k(p_1p_2p_3\cdots p_k).$$ We conjecture…
A positive integer n is called a covering number if there are some distinct divisors n_1,...,n_k of n greater than one and some integers a_1,...,a_k such that Z is the union of the residue classes a_1(mod n_1),...,a_k(mod n_k). A covering…
We prove that there are infinitely many integers $n$ such that the total number of prime factors of $(n+h_{1})(n+h_{2})...(n+h_{\kappa})$ is at most $(1/2)\kappa\log\kappa+O(\kappa)$, provided $\kappa$ is sufficiently large.
Let $P(m)$ denote the largest prime factor of an integer $m\geq 2$, and put $P(0)=P(1)=1$. For an integer $k\geq 2$, let $(F_{n}^{(k)})_{n\geq 2-k}$ be the $k-$generalized Fibonacci sequence which starts with $0,...,0,1$ ($k$ terms) and…
Let $H(n) = \prod_{p|n}\frac{p}{p-1}$ where $p$ ranges over the primes which divide $n$. It is well known that if $n$ is a primitive non-deficient number, then $H(n) > 2$. We examine inequalities of the form $H(n)> 2 + f(n)$ for various…
For a positive integer $n$ let $\mathfrak{P}_n=\prod_{s_p(n)\ge p} p,$ where $p$ runs over all primes and $s_p(n)$ is the sum of the base $p$ digits of $n$. For all $n$ we prove that $\mathfrak{P}_n$ is divisible by all "small" primes with…
In this paper we prove that if $n > 30,030$ then the $n$-th element of any Lucas or Lehmer sequence has a primitive divisor.
Let $Q(n)$ denote the count of the primitive subsets of the integers $\{1,2\ldots n\}$. We give a new proof that $Q(n) = \alpha^{(1+o(1))n}$ which allows us to give a good error term and to improve upon the lower bound for the value of this…
Let $P$ be a non-torsion point on an elliptic curve defined over a number field $K$ and consider the sequence $\{B_n\}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ of the denominators of $x(nP)$. We prove that every term of the sequence of the $B_n$ has a primitive…
The \textit{order of appearance} $ z(n) $ of a positive integer $ n $ in the Fibonacci sequence is defined as the smallest positive integer $ j $ such that $ n $ divides the $ j $-th Fibonacci number. A \textit{fixed point} arises when, for…
Consider the positive integers $n$ such that $n$ divides the $n$-th Fibonacci number, and their counting function $A$. We prove that \[A(x) \leq x^{1-(1/2+o(1))\log\log\log x/\log\log x}.\]
For $x>0$ let $\pi(x)$ denote the number of primes not exceeding $x$. For integers $a$ and $m>0$, we determine when there is an integer $n>1$ with $\pi(n)=(n+a)/m$. In particular, we show that for any integers $m>2$ and $a\le\lceil…
We introduce and study the recursive divisor function, a recursive analog of the usual divisor function: $\kappa_x(n) = n^x + \sum_{d\lfloor n} \kappa_x(d)$, where the sum is over the proper divisors of $n$. We give a geometrical…
Hasanalizade [1] studied Deaconescu's conjecture for positive composite integer $n$. A positive composite integer $n\geq4$ is said to be a Deaconescu number if $S_2(n)\mid \phi(n)-1$. In this paper, we improve Hasanalizade's result by…
We show that for primes $p < 10^{14}$ the period length $\kappa (p^2)$ of the Fibonacci sequence modulo $p^2$ is never equal to its period length modulo $p$. The investigation involves an extensive search by computer. As an application, we…
For $n<\omega$, we say that the $\Pi^1_n$-reflection principle holds at $\kappa$ and write $\text{Refl}_n(\kappa)$ if and only if $\kappa$ is a $\Pi^1_n$-indescribable cardinal and every $\Pi^1_n$-indescribable subset of $\kappa$ has a…
We prove that there are infinitely many integers $n$ such that $n$ and $n+1$ have the same number of distinct prime divisors.
Let $x$ denote a sufficiently large integer. We show that the recent result of Grimmelt and Merikoski actually yields the largest prime factor of $n^2 +1$ is greater than $x^{1.317}$ infinitely often. As an application, we give a new upper…
We prove that a positive integer $n$ is a Fibonacci number of even index if and only if $\langle n\varphi\rangle+\frac{1}{n}>1$.
A bijective proof is given for the following theorem: the number of compositions of n into odd parts equals the number of compositions of n + 1 into parts greater than one. Some commentary about the history of partitions and compositions is…
