We establish that there is an algebraic number $\xi\approx 2.30522$ such that while there are uncountably many growth rates of permutation classes arbitrarily close to $\xi,$ there are only countably many less than $\xi$. Central to the…
In this paper we study a sequence involving the prime numbers by deriving two asymptotic formulas and finding new upper and lower bounds, which improve the currently known estimates.
This paper proves the existence of infinitely many Perrin pseudoprimes, as conjectured by Adams and Shanks in 1982. The theorem proven covers a general class of pseudoprimes based on recurrence sequences. The result uses ingredients of the…
It is known since the 1970s that no more than 23 multiplications are required for computing the product of two 3 x 3-matrices. It is not known whether this can also be done with fewer multiplications. However, there are several mutually…
An integer $n\geq 1$ is a $v$-palindrome if it is not a multiple of $10$, nor a decimal palindrome, and such that the sum of the prime factors and corresponding exponents larger than $1$ in the prime factorization of $n$ is equal to that of…
The problem of N-digit sets all permutations of which give primes is discussed. Such sets may include only digits 1, 3, 7 and 9, and none of 0, 2, 5, 4, 6, 8. Direct calculations show that such full-permutation digit sets occur at N = 1, 2,…
We give continued fraction expansions of the generating functions of Bernoulli numbers, Cauchy numbers, Euler numbers, harmonic numbers, and their generalized or related numbers. In particular, we focus on explicit forms of the convergents…
In this paper, we propose a new primality test, and then we employ this test to find a formula for {\pi} that computes the number of primes within any interval. We finally propose a new formula that computes the nth prime number as well as…
We establish that every set of $k=10$ natural numbers determines at least $30$ distinct pairwise sums or at least $30$ distinct pairwise products, as well as the analogous result for $k=11$ and at least $34$ sums/products, with sharpness…
Following an idea of Rowland we give a conjectural way to generate increasing sequences of primes using algorithms involving the gcd. These algorithms seem not so useless for searching primes since it appears we found sometime primes much…
By defining the dimension of natural numbers as the number of prime factors, all natural numbers smaller than 2^(n+1) (n is a natural number) can be classified by their dimensions, and the count of numbers of each dimension gives a…
We give some formulas of poly-Cauchy numbers by the $r$-Stirling transform. In the case of the classical or poly-Bernoulli numbers, the formulas are with Stirling numbers of the first kind. In our case of the classical or poly-Cauchy…
The results of the computer hunt for the primes of the form $q = m^2+1$ up to $10^{20}$ are reported. The number of sign changes of the difference $\pi_q(x) - \frac{C_q}{2}\int_2^x{du \over \sqrt{u}\log(u)}$ and the error term for this…
We introduce poly-Cauchy permutations that are enumerated by the poly-Cauchy numbers. We provide combinatorial proofs for several identities involving poly-Cauchy numbers and some of their generalizations. The aim of this work is to…
Let E/Q be an elliptic curve, let L(E,s)=\sum a_n/n^s be the L-series of E/Q, and let P be a point in E(Q). An integer n > 2 having at least two distinct prime factors will be be called an elliptic pseudoprime for (E,P) if E has good…
In 1977, Hugh Williams studied Lucas pseudoprimes to all Lucas sequences of a fixed discriminant. These are composite numbers analogous to Carmichael numbers and they satisfy a Korselt-like criterion: $n$ must be a product of distinct…
We study the number of factorizations of a positive integer, where the parts of the factorization are of l different colors (or kinds). Recursive or explicit formulas are derived for the case of unordered and ordered, distinct and…
Let $\mathcal{P}_r$ denote an almost-prime with at most $r$ prime factors, counted according to multiplicity. In this paper, it is proved that for $\alpha\in\mathbb{R}\backslash\mathbb{Q},\,\beta\in\mathbb{R}$ and $0<\theta<10/1561$, there…
In this paper some new ways of generalizing perfect numbers are investigated, numerical results are presented and some conjectures are established.
We study inverse factorial series and their relation to Stirling numbers of the first kind. We prove a special representation of the polylogarithm function in terms of series with such numbers. Using various identities for Stirling numbers…
