An arithmetic formula is an expression involving only the constant $1$, and the binary operations of addition and multiplication, with multiplication by $1$ not allowed. We obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of arithmetic formulas…

Let $\pi_{q,a}(x)$ denote the number of primes $\le x$ in the progression $a$ modulo $q$. We study subtle inequities in these functions, with $q$ fixed and variable $a$ (sometimes called 'prime race problems'). It is known unconditionally…

It is well known that the distribution of the prime numbers plays a central role in number theory. It has been known, since Riemann's memoir in 1860, that the distribution of prime numbers can be described by the zero-free region of the…

Denote by $\lambda(n)$ Liouville's function concerning the parity of the number of prime divisors of $n$. Using a theorem of Allouche, Mend\`es France, and Peyri\`ere and many classical results from the theory of the distribution of prime…

We give a Pieri-type formula for the sum of $K$-$k$-Schur functions $\sum_{\mu\le\lambda} g^{(k)}_{\mu}$ over a principal order ideal of the poset of $k$-bounded partitions under the strong Bruhat order, which sum we denote by…

By using the generalized Bernoulli numbers, we deduce new integral representations for the Riemann zeta function at positive odd-integer arguments. The explicit expressions enable us to obtain criteria for the dimension of the vector space…

For the sequence defined by \[ a(n) = \frac{n^2 - n - 1}{\gcd\big(n^2 - n - 1,\, b(n-3) + n\,b(n-4)\big)} \] Where $b(n) = (n+2)\big(b(n-1) - b(n-2)\big),$ with initial conditions $b(-1) = 0$ and $b(0) = 1$, we find that $a(n)$ contains…

It is well known that $\sum_{p\le n} 1/p =\ln(\ln(n)) + O(1)$ where $p$ goes over the primes. We give several known proofs of this. We first present a a proof that $\ge \ln(\ln(n)) + O(1)$. This is based on Euler's proof that $\sum_p 1/p$…

We prove that the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the condition $\int_{2}^x\left(\pi(t)-\text{li}(t)\right)\mathrm{d}t<0$ for all $x>2$. Here, $\pi(t)$ is the prime-counting function and $\text{li}(t)$ is the logarithmic integral. This…

Denote by $\pi(x;q,a)$ the number of primes $p\leqslant x$ with $p\equiv a\bmod q.$ We prove new upper bounds for $\pi(x;q,a)$ when $q$ is a large prime very close to $\sqrt{x}$, improving upon the classical work of Iwaniec (1982). The…

Erd\H{o}s and Graham define $g(n) = n + \phi(n)$ and the iterated application $g_k(n) = g(g_{k-1}(n))$. They ask for solutions of $g_{k+r}(n) = 2 g_{k}(n)$ and observe $g_{k+2}(10) = 2 g_{k}(10)$ and $g_{k+2}(94) = 2 g_{k}(94)$. We show…

We define and study a transform whose iterates bring to the fore interesting relations between Pisot numbers and primes. Although the relations we describe are general, they take a particular form in the Pisot limit points. We give three…

The set of prime numbers has been analyzed, based on their algebraic and arithmetical structure. Here by obtaining a sort of linear formula for the set of prime numbers, they are redefined and identified; under a systematic procedure it has…

We show that operations in Milnor K-theory mod $p$ of a field are spanned by divided power operations. After giving an explicit formula for divided power operations and extending them to some new cases, we determine for all fields $k$ and…

In this paper we propose an algorithm that correctly discards a set of numbers (from a previously defined sieve) with an interval of integers. Leopoldo's Theorem states that the remaining integer numbers will generate and count the complete…

Let $\pi(x;\gamma_1,\gamma_2)$ denote the number of primes $p$ with $p\leqslant x$ and $p=\lfloor n^{1/\gamma_1}_1\rfloor=\lfloor n^{1/\gamma_2}_2\rfloor$, where $\lfloor t\rfloor$ denotes the integer part of $t\in\mathbb{R}$ and…

A new set of formulas for primes is presented. These formulas are more efficient and grow much slower than the two known formulas of Mills and Wright. 3 new formulas are explained.

Let $x$ be a positive integer. We give an asymptotic formula for the number of primes in the set $\{\fl{x/n}, 1 \le n \le x\}$ and give some related results.

We prove a prime number theorem first for the classical Rankin-Selberg L-function $L(s,\pi\times\pi')$ over any Galois extension with $\pi$ and $\pi'$ unitary automorphic cuspidal representations of $GL_n$ and $GL_m$ respectively with at…

We study the arithmetic function sopfr$(n)$ (OEIS A001414) which gives the sum of prime factors (with repetition) of a number $n$. In particular we obtain the asymptotic formula $$ \sum_{n \leq x} \rm{sopfr}(n) \sim \frac{\pi^2}{12}…
