Smooth integers with lower bound on $\omega(n)$

Define $(b,c)$-smooth integers to be integers having all prime factors bigger than $c$ and smaller than $b$. Probability a number is $(b,1)$-smooth is governed by the Dickman function while ...

An attempt to get a variant of Agoh–Giuga conjecture

The idea of this post is an attempt to explore a variant of the so-called Agoh–Giuga conjecture. In past days, and today, I tried to think about variants of this conjecture exploring congruences about ...

How to compute/estimate the least $k$ such that there exist $n$ consecutive integers each having a prime factor $\le k$?

Let $a_n$ be the least integer $k$ such that there exist $n$ consecutive integers each with a prime factor $\le k$. For example, $a_{13} \le 11$ because the 13 consecutive integers $114,115,\ldots,126$...

Queries on distribution of prime divisors by magnitude?

Erdos-Kac law state a typical number of magnitude $n$ has $\log\log n$ prime factors and we know probability of square free integers is $\frac{6}{\pi^2}$. What is the probability distribution of ...

A question concerning the strange arithmetic derivation

This question is related to Strange (or stupid) arithmetic derivation. The original question whether an unbounded sequence of iterates exists is still unanswered. $$n=\prod_{i=1}^{k}p_i^{\alpha_i} \...

Determine whether if $n$ is a primitive pseudoperfect (semiperfect) number, then $\sigma(n)<2^{\sigma_0(n)}$

Determine whether if $n$ is a primitive pseudoperfect (semiperfect) number, then $\sigma(n)<2^{\sigma_0(n)}$. $\sigma_k(n)$ is the division function and $\sigma(n)=\sigma_1(n)$. A number is ...

On characterizations for Mersenne primes involving the sum of divisor function

In this post we denote the sum of positive divisors function of an integer $n\geq 1$ as $$\sigma(n)=\sum_{1\leq d\mid n}d.$$ Then a prime of the form $2^p-1$ is called a Mersenne prime. These are ...

On certain number theoretic sextuples?

Given small parameters $0<\epsilon<\epsilon'$ is there an $n_\epsilon>0$ such that at every $n>n_\epsilon$ if we are given a prime $n^2<p<2n^2$ then can we always find integers $a,b,...
