Recently, several bounds have been obtained on the number of solutions to congruences of the type $$ (x_1+s)...(x_{\nu}+s)\equiv (y_1+s)...(y_{\nu}+s)\not\equiv0 \pmod p $$ modulo a prime $p$ with variables from some short intervals. Here,…

Let $A$ be a subset of primes up to $x$. If we assume $A$ is well-distributed (in the Siegel-Walfisz sense) in any arithmetic progressions to moduli $q\leqslant(\log x)^c$ for any $c>0$, then the sumset $A+A$ has density 1/2 in the natural…

In the year 2007, the author discovered an intriguing property of the number $198$ he saw on the license plate of a car. Namely, if we take $198$ and its reversal $891$, prime factorize each number, and sum the numbers appearing in each…

We investigate compositions of a positive integer with a fixed number of parts, when there are several types of each natural number. These compositions produce new relationships among binomial coefficients, Catalan numbers, and numbers of…

The palindromic length of the finite word $v$ is equal to the minimal number of palindromes whose concatenation is equal to $v$. It was conjectured in 2013 that for every infinite aperiodic word $x$, the palindromic length of its factors is…

Let $\beta$ be a non-unit real algebraic integer greater than one and $\{a_{n}\}_{n \geq 0}$ be a sequence satisfying a linear recurrence relation $a_{n+3}=aa_{n+2}+ba_{n+1}+ca_{n}$. Under certain conditions, we prove that the number of…

Let $q\geqslant 2$ be a fixed prime power. We prove an asymptotic formula for counting the number of monic polynomials that are of degree $n$ and have exactly $k$ irreducible factors over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. We also compare our…

A well-known conjecture asserts that there are infinitely many primes $p$ for which $p - 1$ is a perfect square. We obtain upper and lower bounds of matching order on the number of pairs of distinct primes $p,q \le x$ for which $(p - 1)(q -…

We study the palindromic complexity of infinite words $u_\beta$, the fixed points of the substitution over a binary alphabet, $\phi(0)=0^a1$, $\phi(1)=0^b1$, with $a-1\geq b\geq 1$, which are canonically associated with quadratic non-simple…

Let $L$ be an $n$-element finite lattice. We prove that if $L$ has strictly more than $2^{n-5}$ congruences, then $L$ is planar. This result is sharp, since for each natural number $n\geq 8$, there exists a non-planar lattice with exactly…

A number $n$ is practical if every integer in $[1,n]$ can be expressed as a subset sum of the positive divisors of $n$. We consider the distribution of practical numbers that are also shifted primes, improving a theorem of Guo and…

We introduce a very natural topology on the set of total orderings of monomials of any algebra having a countable basis over a field. This topological space and some notable subspaces are compact. This topological framework allows us to…

In this work I look at the distribution of primes by calculation of an infinite number of intersections. For this I use the set of all numbers which are not elements of a certain times table in each case. I am able to show that it exists a…

We provide a multidimensional extension of previous results on the existence of polynomial progressions in dense subsets of the primes. Let $A$ be a subset of the prime lattice - the d-fold direct product of the primes - of positive…

A superdiagonal composition is one in which the $i$-th part or summand is of size greater than or equal to $i$. In this paper, we study the number of palindromic superdiagonal compositions and colored superdiagonal compositions. In…

We study infinite binary words that contain few distinct palindromes. In particular, we classify such words according to their critical exponents. This extends results by Fici and Zamboni [TCS 2013]. Interestingly, the words with 18 and 20…

A well-known open problem asks to show that $2^n+5$ is composite for almost all values of $n$. This was proposed by Gil Kalai as a possible Polymath project, and was posed originally by Christopher Hooley. We show that, assuming GRH and a…

In contrast to finite arithmetic configurations, relatively little is known about which infinite patterns can be found in every set of natural numbers with positive density. Building on recent advances showing infinite sumsets can be found,…

We construct irreducible balanced non-transitive sets of $n$-sided dice for any positive integer $n$, which was raised in \cite[Question 5.2]{SS17}. One main tool of the construction is to study so-called fair sets of dice. Furthermore, we…

We introduce a sieve for counting twin primes up to a given range. Our method depends on a parameter ${\lambda}_x$ and the estimation of the number of twin primes obtained as a result, is called a fundamental structure of the distribution…
