Let $X$ be the number of $k$-term arithmetic progressions contained in the $p$-biased random subset of the first $N$ positive integers. We give asymptotically sharp estimates on the logarithmic upper-tail probability $\log \Pr(X \ge E[X] +…

Let $p>2$ be prime and $g$ a primitive root modulo $p$. We present an argument for the fact that discrete logarithms of the numbers in any arithmetic progression are uniformly distributed in $[1,p]$ and raise some questions on the subject.

By combining a sieve method of Harman with the work of Maynard and Tao we show that $$\liminf_{n\rightarrow \infty}(p_{n+m}-p_n)\ll \exp(3.815m).$$

Green and Tao famously proved in 2005 that any subset of the primes of fixed positive density contains arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions. Green had previously shown that in fact any subset of the primes of relative density tending to…

We give two improved explicit versions of the prime number theorem for primes in arithmetic progression: the first isolating the contribution of the Siegel zero and the second completely explicit, where the improvement is for medium-sized…

We study \'etale descent of derivations of algebras with values in a module. The algebras under consideration are twisted forms of algebras over rings, and apply to all classes of algebras, notably associative and Lie algebras, such as the…

We survey the classical results on the prime number theorem

Given a sequence $\{b_{i}\}_{i=1}^{n}$ and a ratio $\lambda \in (0,1),$ let $E=\cup_{i=1}^n(\lambda E+b_i)$ be a homogeneous self-similar set. In this paper, we study the existence and maximal length of arithmetic progressions in $E$. Our…

Recently Tao, Croot and Helfgott invented an algorithm to determine the parity of the number of primes in a given interval in O(x^{1/2-c+\eps}) steps for some absolute constant c. We propose a slightly different approach, which leads to the…

We show that any set containing a positive proportion of the primes contains a 3-term arithmetic progression. An important ingredient is a proof that the primes enjoy the so-called Hardy-Littlewood majorant property. We derive this by…

The work is devoted to the construction of a new interval arithmetic which would combine algorithmic efficiency and high quality estimation of the ranges of expressions.

Assuming a uniform $q$-variant of the prime $k$-tuple conjecture, we compute moments of the number of primes in arithmetic progressions to a large modulus $q$ as the residue classes vary. Consequently, depending on the size of $\varphi(q)$,…

This text is a survey of the general theory of stochastic processes, with a view towards random times and enlargements of filtrations. The first five chapters present standard materials, which were developed by the French probability school…

This is an expository talk on a topic of classical analysis, arising from the VMO theory of the topological degree due to Br\'ezis and Nirenberg (1995). We sketch the history of the subject and some of its recent developments. The paper is…

Part-and-parcel of the study of "multiplicative number theory" is the study of the distribution of multiplicative functions in arithmetic progressions. Although appropriate analogies to the Bombieri-Vingradov Theorem have been proved for…

We present a new, elementary, dynamical proof of the prime number theorem.

A study of certain Hamiltonian systems has lead Y. Long to conjecture the existence of infinitely many primes of the form $p=2[\alpha n]+1$, where $1<\alpha<2$ is a fixed irrational number. An argument of P. Ribenboim coupled with classical…

A linear combination $aT_r(m)+bT_s(n)$ of an \mbox{$r$-gonal} number $T_r(m)$ and an $s$-gonal number $T_s(n)$ with mutually coprime positive integer coefficients $a$ and $b$ produces infinitely many primes as $m$ and~$n$ varies over the…

Based on Euclid's algorithm, we find a kind of special sequences which play an interesting role in the study of primes. We call them W Sequences. They not only ties up the distribution of primes in short interval but also enables us to give…

We give an explicit description of the Lie algebra of derivations for a class of infinite dimensional algebras which are given by \'etale descent. The algebras under consideration are twisted forms of central algebras over rings, and…
