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…

Erdos conjectured that every odd number greater than one can be expressed as the sum of a squarefree number and a power of two. Subsequently, Odlyzko and McCranie provided numerical verification of this conjecture up to $10^7$ and $1.4\cdot…

This document seeks to prove there are infinitely many primes whose difference is 2, referred to as twin prime pairs. This proof's methodology involves constructing a function that approximates the number of positive integers, less than a…

For an integer $b\geq 2$, we call a positive integer $b$-anti-Niven if it is relatively prime to the sum of the digits in its base-$b$ representation. In this article, we investigate the maximum lengths of arithmetic progressions of…

A positive integer is called an $E_j$-number if it is the product of $j$ distinct primes. We prove that there are infinitely many triples of $E_2$-numbers within a gap size of $32$ and infinitely many triples of $E_3$-numbers within a gap…

It is conjectured that every integer N>454 is the sum of seven nonnegative cubes. We prove the conjecture when N is congruent to 2 mod 4. This result, together with a recent proof for 4|N, shows that the conjecture is true for all even N.

The famous strongly binary Goldbach's conjecture asserts that every even number $2n \geq 8$ can always be expressible as the sum of two distinct odd prime numbers. We use a new approach to dealing with this conjecture. Specifically, we…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we prove that for all $x\geq 2$, there exists at least one even integer within the interval $(x, x+123\log^2x]$, that can be expressed as the sum of two primes. This result is an improvement over the recent…

We study the moments of the function that counts the number of representations of an integer as sums of two prime squares. We refine some of the previous arguments and apply the Selberg sieve to get an unconditional upper bound for all…

For two odd primes $p$ and $q$ such that $p<q$, let $A(p,q):=(a_k)_{k=1}^{\infty}$ be the arithmetic progression whose $k$th term is given by $a_k=(k-1)(q-p)+p$ (i.e., with $a_1=p$ and $a_2=q$). Here we conjecture that for every positive…

Let 0 < a < b be two relatively prime integers and let <a,b> be the numerical semigroup generated by a and b with Frobenius number g(a,b)=ab-a-b. In this note, we prove that there exists a prime number p in <a,b> with p < g(a,b) when the…

We show that for any fixed base $a$, a positive proportion of primes have the property that they become composite after altering any one of their digits in the base $a$ expansion; the case $a=2$ was already established by Cohen-Selfridge…

We prove that for all $n\geq 1$ there exists a number between $n^2$ and $(n+1)^2$ with at most 4 prime factors. This is the first result of this kind that holds for every $n\geq 1$ rather than just sufficiently large $n$. Our approach…

Fix a positive real number $\theta$. The natural numbers $m$ with largest square-free divisor not exceeding $m^\theta$ form a set $\mathscr{A}$, say. It is shown that whenever $\theta>1/2$ then all large natural numbers $n$ are the sum of…

In the context of the Frobenius coin problem, given two relatively prime positive integers $a$ and $b$, the set of nonrepresentable numbers consists of positive integers that cannot be expressed as nonnegative integer combination of $a$ and…

Every natural number greater than two may be written as the sum of a prime and a square-free number. We establish several generalisations of this, by placing divisibility conditions on the square-free number.

Suppose $G$ is a finite abelian group and $S$ is a sequence of elements in $G$. For any element $g$ of $G$, let $N_g(S)$ denote the number of subsequences of $S$ with sum $g$. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the lower bound for…

We examine the problem of writing every sufficiently large even number as the sum of two primes and at most $K$ powers of 2. We outline an approach that only just falls short of improving the current bounds on $K$. Finally, we improve the…

We prove a conjecture posted in the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, namely that there are exactly five positive integers that can be written in more than one way as the sum of a nonnegative power of 2 and a nonnegative power of 3.…

The divisor function $\sigma(n)$ denotes the sum of the divisors of the positive integer $n$. For a prime $p$ and $m \in \mathbb{N}$, the $p$-adic valuation of $m$ is the highest power of $p$ which divides $m$. Formulas for…
