The prime counting function inequality $\pi(x+y) < \pi(x)+\pi(y)$, which is known as Hardy-Littlewood conjecture, has been established for a variety of cases such as $ \delta x \leq y \leq x$, where $0< \delta \leq 1$, and $x \leq y\leq x…
We prove that for a positive integer $k$ the primes in certain kinds of intervals can not distribute too 'uniformly' among the reduced residue classes modulo $k$. Hereby, we prove a generalization of a conjecture of Recaman and establish…
In this paper we show that for every positive integer $n$ there exists a prime number in the interval $[n,9(n+3)/8]$. Based on this result, we prove that if $a$ is an integer greater than 1, then for every integer $n>14.4a$ there are at…
Write $T(n)$ as the sum of the reciprocals of the primes which divide $n$. Write $H(n) = \prod_{p|n}p/(p-1)$ where the product is over the prime divisors of $n$. We prove new bounds for $T(n)$ and $H(n)$ in terms of the smallest prime…
In our earlier publication we have shown how to compute by iteration a rational number ${u_{2,k}}$ in the two-term Machin-like formula for pi of kind…
We furnish an explicit bound for the prime number theorem in short intervals on the assumption of the Riemann hypothesis.
Let p(n, k) denote the number of partitions of n into parts less than or equal to k. We show several properties of this function modulo 2. First, we prove that for fixed positive integers k and m, p(n,k) is periodic modulo m. Using this, we…
We present a simple recurrent formula to generate the Machin-like expression for calculating $\pi/4$. The method works for any denominator in the starting term and always provides a finite decomposition. We show that the terms in the…
Taking $r>0$, let $\pi_{2r}(x)$ denote the number of prime pairs $(p, p+2r)$ with $p\le x$. The prime-pair conjecture of Hardy and Littlewood (1923) asserts that $\pi_{2r}(x)\sim 2C_{2r} {\rm li}_2(x)$ with an explicit constant $C_{2r}>0$.…
In this paper we study arithmetic properties of some permanents, many of which involve trigonometric functions. For any primitive $n$-th root $\zeta$ of unity, we obtain closed formulas for the permanents…
For a real number $k$, define $\pi_k(x) = \sum_{p\le x} p^k$. When $k>0$, we prove that $$ \pi_k(x) - \pi(x^{k+1}) = \Omega_{\pm}\left(\frac{x^{\frac12+k}}{\log x} \log\log\log x\right) $$ as $x\to\infty$, and we prove a similar result when…
The height $H(n)$ of $n$, introduced by Pillai in 1929, is the smallest positive integer $i$ such that the $i$th iterate of Euler's totient function at $n$ is $1$. H. N. Shapiro (1943) studied the structure of the set of all numbers at a…
In 1874, Mertens famously proved an asymptotic formula for the product $p/(p-1)$ over all primes $p$ up to $x$. On the other hand, one may expand Mertens' prime product into series over numbers $n$ with only small prime factors. It is…
There are several reformulations of the Vi\`ete's formula for pi that have been reported in the modern literature. In this paper we show another analog to the Vi\`ete's formula for pi by Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind.
In this paper, we present a fixed point method for high-precision computation of number $\pi$ based on the sine function. Let $P\in \mathbb{N}$. We define the function: \[ S\left(x\right) =x+\sum_{k=1}^{P}\left(\prod_{\ell=1}^{k-1}\frac…
Let $\Lambda\left(n\right)$ be the Von Mangoldt function, let \[ r_{G}\left(n\right)=\underset{{\scriptstyle m_{1}+m_{2}=n}}{\sum_{m_{1},m_{2}\leq n}}\Lambda\left(m_{1}\right)\Lambda\left(m_{2}\right), \] \[…
The main result of this paper is a description of the space of functions on the unit circle, for which Krein's trace formula holds for arbitrary pairs of unitary operators with trace class difference. This space coincides with the space of…
In this paper we generalize the classical Proth's theorem for integers of the form $N=Kp^n+1$. For these families, we present a primality test whose computational complexity is $\widetilde{O}(\log^2(N))$ and, what is more important, that…
We consider the computation of Bernoulli, Tangent (zag), and Secant (zig or Euler) numbers. In particular, we give asymptotically fast algorithms for computing the first n such numbers in O(n^2.(log n)^(2+o(1))) bit-operations. We also give…
We establish why li(x) outperforms x/log x as an estimate for the prime counting function pi(x). The result follows from subdividing the natural numbers into the intervals s_k :={p_k^2,..., p_{k+1}^2-1}, k>=1, each being fully sieved by the…
