    This note generalizes the Fibonacci primitive roots to the set of integers. An asymptotic formula for counting the number of integers with such primitive root is introduced here.Comment: Twelve Pages.

    Primitive Roots In Short Intervals

    Full text link
    Let p2p\geq 2 be a large prime, and let N(logp)1+εN\gg ( \log p)^{1+\varepsilon}. This note proves the existence of primitive roots in the short interval [M,M+N][M,M+N], where M2M \geq 2 is a fixed number, and ε>0 \varepsilon>0 is a small number. In particular, the least primitive root g(p)=O((logp)1+ε)g(p)= O\left ((\log p)^{1+\varepsilon} \right), and the least prime primitive root g(p)=O((logp)1+ε)g^*(p)= O\left ((\log p)^{1+\varepsilon} \right) unconditionally.Comment: Twenty Pages. Keywords: Least primitive root, Least prime primitive root, Primitive root in short interval. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1707.06517 and text overlap with arXiv:1609.01147 and arXiv:1910.0230

    Rapidly Convergent Series of the Divisors Functions

    Full text link
    This note gives a few rapidly convergent series representations of the sums of divisors functions. These series have various applications such as exact evaluations of some power series, computing estimates and proving the existence results of some special values of the sums of divisors functions.Comment: Seven Pages.

    Spectral Methods And Prime Numbers Counting Problems

    Full text link
    A recent heuristic argument based on basic concepts in spectral analysis showed that the twin prime conjecture and a few other related primes counting problems are valid. A rigorous version of the spectral method, and a proof of the more general dePolignac conjecture on the existence of infinitely many primes pairs p and p + 2k, k => 1, is proposed in this note.Comment: Thirty Pages.

    The details for the construction of an explicit formula for the divisors function d(n) = #{d | n} are formalized in this article. This formula facilitates a unified approach to the investigation of the error terms of the divisor problem and circle problem.Comment: Twenty Eight Pages.
