The Least Prime in Arithmetic an Progression

The Least Prime in Arithmetic an Progression
In his 1979 paper Samuel Wagstaff studied the problem of bounding the first prime in an arithmetic progression. In this paper we update a number of his computations using advances in hardware. Based on this we refine his conjecture on Primes in Arithmetic Progression and provide further numerical evidence in support of it. For instance we conjecture that for $n>3$ we have a bound of $3ϕ(n)\log(n)\log(ϕ(n))$ and verified this bound to $10^8$.

NFL analyst views Detroit Lions as prime designation for star defensive back
As the NFL free agency period unfolds, the Detroit Lions have found themselves at the center of speculation surrounding veteran cornerback Stephon Gilmore. Initially, the idea of Gilmore joining the Lions seemed plausible, especially with the team’s acquisitions of Carlton Davis and Amik Robertson. However, when news broke of Cameron Sutton’s legal troubles and subsequent release by the Lions, the prospect of Gilmore donning the Honolulu Blue gained traction once again. Despite Gilmore’s …

The Set-Theoretic Form of Twin Prime Distribution and Its Odd-Even Imbalance
The prime number problem falls within the realm of number theory, specifically elementary number theory. Current research approaches have unnecessarily complicated this matter. In contrast to more advanced mathematical tools, the methods of elementary number theory can effectively address the twin prime problem. The primary contribution of this article lies in establishing a set that systematically includes all twin prime pairs without omissions. This set's distribution is governed by a precise…

The Furstenberg-Sárközy theorem for polynomials in one or more prime variables
We establish upper bounds on the size of the largest subset of $\{1,2,\dots,N\}$ lacking nonzero differences of the form $h(p_1,\dots,p_{\ell})$, where $h\in \mathbb{Z}[x_1,\dots,x_{\ell}]$ is a fixed polynomial satisfying appropriate conditions and $p_1,\dots,p_{\ell}$ are prime. The bounds are of the same type as the best-known analogs for unrestricted integer inputs, due to Bloom-Maynard and Arala for $\ell=1$, and to the authors for $\ell \geq 2$.

The ratio of the transverse and longitudinal component of polarization transfer to protons in quasi-elastic $(\vec{e}, e^{\prime} \vec{p}\,)$ reaction, $P^{\prime}_x/P^{\prime}_z$, is sensitive to the proton's electromagnetic form factor ratio, $G_E/G_M$.

A proper submodule $N$ of $M$ is said to be a weakly classical 1-absorbing prime submodule, if for each $m\in M$ and nonunits $a,b,c\in R,$ $0\neq abcm\in N$ implies that $abm\in N$ or $cm\in N$.

Simple $p$-adic Lie groups with abelian Lie algebras
For each prime $p$ and each positive integer $d$, we construct the first examples of second countable, topologically simple, $p$-adic Lie groups of dimension $d$ whose Lie algebras are abelian. This answers several questions of Glöckner and Caprace-Monod. The proof relies on a generalization of small cancellation methods that applies to central extensions of acylindrically hyperbolic groups.

When $p$ is an odd prime, we prove that the $\mathbb F_p$-cohomology of $\mathrm{BP}\langle n\rangle$ as a module over the Steenrod algebra determines the $p$-local spectrum $\mathrm{BP}\langle n\rangle$. In particular, we prove that the $p$-local spectrum $\mathrm{BP}\langle n\rangle$ only depends on its $p$-completion $\mathrm{BP}\langle n\rangle_p^\wedge$. As a corollary, this proves that the $p$-local homotopy type of $\mathrm{BP}\langle n\rangle$ does not depend on the ideal by which we ta…

Mod-$2$ Hecke algebras of level $3$ and $5$
We use deformation theory to study the big Hecke algebra acting on mod-2 modular forms of prime level $N$ and all weights, especially its local component at the trivial representation. For $N = 3, 5$, we prove that the maximal reduced quotient of this big Hecke algebra is isomorphic to the maximal reduced quotient of the corresponding universal deformation ring. Then we completely determine the structure of this big Hecke algebra. We also describe a natural grading on mod-$p$ Hecke algebras.

The sum of the reciprocals of the prime divisors of an odd perfect or odd primitive non-deficient number
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 factor of $n$, under the assumption that $n$ is an odd perfect number. Some of the results also apply under the weaker assumption that $n$ is odd and primitive non-deficient.

On smooth gaps between primes using the Maynard-Tao sieve
In 1999, Balog, Brüdern, and Wooley (1999) showed there are infinitely many prime gaps $p-q$ that are $(\log p)^{\frac{3}{4}}$-smooth, and infinitely many consecutive prime gaps that are $(\log p)^\frac{7}{8}$-smooth. Advancements made since then by Zhang (2014), Maynard (2014), and Polymath8b (2014) towards resolving the twin prime conjecture have given us the tools to lower the bounds made by Balog, Brüdern, and Wooley to 47. Moreover, we can show there are infinitely many $m$-tuples of pri…

On finite field analogues of determinants involving binomial coefficients
In this paper, we investigate certain cyclotomic matrices concerning the Jacobi sums over finite fields, which can be viewed as finite field analogues of certain matrices involving the Beta function. For example, let $q>1$ be a prime power and let $χ$ be a generator of the group of all multiplicative characters of $\mathbb{F}_q$. Then we prove that $$\det\left[J_q(χ^i,χ^j)\right]_{1\le i,j\le q-2}=(q-1)^{q-3},$$ where $J_q(χ^i,χ^j)$ is the Jacobi sum over $\mathbb{F}_q$. This can be view…

A Complete Congruence System for the Erdos-Straus Conjecture
In this paper we attack the Erdos-Straus conjecture by means of the structure of its solutions, extending and improving the results of a previous paper. Using previous results and supported by the works of Elsholtz and Tao and Monks and Velingker we define a system of congruences for which there are always solutions to the Erdos-Straus conjecture and which we conjecture to include all prime numbers. For this purpose, and always taking into account a result due to Mordell that limits the congrue…
