Practical numbers and the distribution of divisors

open access: yes, 2015
An integer $n$ is called practical if every $m\le n$ can be written as a sum of distinct divisors of $n$. We show that the number of practical numbers below $x$ is asymptotic to $c x/\log x$, as conjectured by Margenstern.

Almost all primes have a multiple of small Hamming weight

open access: yes, 2016
Recent results of Bourgain and Shparlinski imply that for almost all primes $p$ there is a multiple $mp$ that can be written in binary as $mp= 1+2^{m_1}+ \cdots +2^{m_k}, \quad 1\leq m_1 < \cdots < m_k,$ with $k=66$ or $k=16$, respectively. We show that $

Detecting mixedness of qutrit systems using the uncertainty relation

open access: yes, 2013
We show that the uncertainty relation as expressed in the Robertson-Schrodinger generalized form can be used to detect the mixedness of three-level quantum systems in terms of measureable expectation values of suitably chosen observables when prior ...

On the degrees of polynomial divisors over finite fields

open access: yes, 2015
We show that the proportion of polynomials of degree $n$ over the finite field with $q$ elements, which have a divisor of every degree below $n$, is given by $c_q n^{-1} + O(n^{-2})$.

A new upper bound for numbers with the Lehmer property and its application to repunit numbers

open access: yes, 2018
A composite positive integer $n$ has the Lehmer property if $\phi(n)$ divides $n-1,$ where $\phi$ is an Euler totient function. In this note we shall prove that if $n$ has the Lehmer property, then $n\leq 2^{2^{K}}-2^{2^{K-1}}$, where $K$ is the number ...

Multiplicative inverses in short intervals

open access: yes, 2012
We give an alternative proof of a recent result by T.D. Browning and A. Haynes (arXiv:1204.6374v1) on multiplicative inverses in sequences of intervals and improve this result under additional conditions on the spacing of these intervals.Comment: 7 ...
