We obtain the triple correlations for a truncated divisor sum related to primes. We also obtain the mixed correlations for this divisor sum when it is summed over the primes, and give some applications to primes in short intervals.
We calculate the triple correlations for the truncated divisor sum $\lambda_{R}(n)$. The $\lambda_{R}(n)$'s behave over certain averages just as the prime counting von Mangoldt function $\Lambda(n)$ does or is conjectured to do. We also…
The main results extend to sums over primes in a short interval earlier estimates by the author for "long" Weyl sums over primes.
This short note provides a sharper upper bound of a well known inequality for the sum of divisors function. This is a problem in pure mathematics related to the distribution of prime numbers. Furthermore, the technique is completely…
In this paper we extend the well-known investigations of Montgomery and Goldston & Montgomery, concerning the pair-correlation function and its relations with the distribution of primes in short intervals, to a more general version of the…
In this paper, we consider certain finite sums related to the "largest odd divisor", and we obtain, using simple ideas and recurrence relations, sharp upper and lower bounds for these sums.
We establish asymptotic formulae for various correlations involving general divisor functions $d_k(n)$ and partial divisor functions $d_l(n,A)=\sum_{q|n:q\leq n^A}d_{l-1}(q)$, where $A\in[0,1]$ is a parameter and $k,l\in\mathbb{N}$ are…
We use short divisor sums to approximate prime tuples and moments for primes in short intervals. By connecting these results to classical moment problems we are able to prove that a positive proportion of consecutive primes are within a…
We give a completely elementary study for averages of short correlations of so-called sieve functions (a pretty general class of arithmetic functions).
In this paper, we investigate the average behavior of ternary correlations for general $k$-divisor-bounded multiplicative functions, assuming certain second moment integral bounds for the associated $L$-functions. Our approach differs from…
We give some theoretical and computational results on "random" harmonic sums with prime numbers, and more generally, for integers with a fixed number of prime factors.
We give some results and conjectures about recurrence relations for certain sequences of binomial sums.
The correlation measure of order $k$ is a measure of pseudorandomness that quantifies the similarity between a sequence and its shifts. It is known that the correlation of order 4 is large for the Rudin-Shapiro sequence despite having nice…
We give a new short proof of the most simple relation between consecutive power sums of the first m positive integers.
We produce congruences modulo a prime $p>3$ for sums $\sum_k\binom{3k}{k}x^k$ over ranges $0\le k<q$ and $0\le k<q/3$, where $q$ is a power of $p$. Here $x$ equals either $c^2/(1-c)^3$, or $4s^2/\bigl(27(s^2-1)\bigr)$, where $c$ and $s$ are…
We present a variety of prime-generating constructions that are based on sums of primes. The constructions come in all shapes and sizes, varying in the number of dimensions and number of generated primes. Our best result is a construction…
For n=1,2,3,... let p_n be the n-th prime. We mainly show that p_n>n+sum_{k=1}^n p_k/k for all n>124, and sum_{k=1}^n kp_k<n^2p_n/3 for all n>30.
The number of tuples with positive integers pairwise relatively prime to each other with product at most $n$ is considered. A generalization of $\mu^{2}$ where $\mu$ is the M\"{o}bius function is used to formulate this divisor sum and…
The main result is a generalization of Keller's recursion equation for finding a prime number given the previous primes. We also examine the convergence of the limit in Keller's equation and the convergence of the limit in the general…
We propose new conjectures about the relationship between the principal blocks of finite groups for different primes and establish evidence for these conjectures.
