What is known about the mode of the number of divisors $\le x$?
Let $d(x)$ be the divisor function. Let $M(x)$ ($x$ a positive integer) be the most frequent value of $d(y)$ for $1 \le y \le x$. Is an asymptotic known for $M(x)$, and failing that, can $M(x)$ at ...

Asymptotic number of "modular primes"
We can say that a number $p$ is prime modulo $N$ if for any two numbers $1<a,b<p$, $ab \not\equiv p \pmod N$. We will define $p(n)$ to be the number of primes mod $n$. I'm wondering about the ...
