Entropy, Periodicity and the Probability of Primality [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy
The distribution of prime numbers has long been viewed as a balance between order and randomness. In this work, we investigate the relationship between entropy, periodicity, and primality through the computational framework of the binary derivative.

A primality test for Kpⁿ⁺¹ numbers and a generalization of Safe primes and Sophie Germain primes [PDF]

open access: yesNotes on Number Theory and Discrete Mathematics, 2023
In this paper, we provide a generalization of Proth's theorem for integers of the form Kpⁿ⁺¹. In particular, a primality test that requires a modular exponentiation (with a proper base a) similar to that of Fermat's test without the computation of any ...

On the calculation of integer sequences, associated with twin primes

open access: yesLietuvos Matematikos Rinkinys, 2023
The twin primes conjecture states that there are infinitely many twin primes. While studying this hypothesis, many important results were obtained, but the problem remains unsolved.

A Remark on the Factorization of Factorials [PDF]

open access: yesMathematics Interdisciplinary Research, 2021
The subject of this paper is to study distribution of the prime factors p and their exponents, which we denote by vp (n!), in standard factorization of n! into primes. We show that for each θ > 0 the primes p not exceeding nθ eventually assume almost all

The Prime state and its quantum relatives [PDF]

open access: yesQuantum, 2020
The Prime state of $n$ qubits, ${|\mathbb{P}_n{\rangle}}$, is defined as the uniform superposition of all the computational-basis states corresponding to prime numbers smaller than $2^n$. This state encodes, quantum mechanically, arithmetic properties of

On the Eight Levels theorem and applications towards Lucas-Lehmer primality test for Mersenne primes, I

open access: yesArab Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences, 2023
Lucas-Lehmer test is the current standard algorithm used for testing the primality of Mersenne numbers, but it may have limitations in terms of its efficiency and accuracy.

An Analytic Approximation to the Density of Twin Primes

open access: yesRecoletos Multidisciplinary Research Journal, 2018
The highly irregular and rough fluctuations of the twin primes below or equal to a positive integer x are considered in this study. The occurrence of a twin prime on an interval [0,x] is assumed to be random.
