Is there a better proof of this fact in number theory/formal group theory?
Inspired by the previous answer I am thinking about simplest possible ways to prove
$$
gcd\left(\binom n1_q,...,\binom n{n-1}_q\right)=\Phi_n(q).
$$
One most primitive way to do it is to check that bo …

Difference bases in simple cyclic groups
I got to the 225th prime with quick-and-dirty Mathematica code
beta[n_]:=With[{p=Prime[n]},
With[{l=PrimitiveRootList[p]},
Module[{i,xl={},g},
For[i=1,i<=Length[l],i++,
g=l[[i]];

When does doubling the size of a set multiply the number of subsets by an integer?
Just an illustration - for $m$ up to 6000, $r$ up to 120. Quite mysterious looking, I would say.
Version 2: in the coordinate system suggested by the answer of Lucia it looks somehow more regular, …

Zeta sum $\sum_{n=2}^\infty \frac{\zeta(n)}{a^n}$
Certainly
$$
\psi(1+z)=−\gamma+\sum_{k=2}^\infty(−1)^k\zeta(k)z^{k−1}
$$
and
$$
\psi(z)=−\gamma−\frac1z+\sum_{k=1}^\infty\frac z{k(k+z)}
$$
are classical - see e. g. DLMF
As for Mathematica, it answe …

Tricky two-dimensional recurrence relation
For $n\geqslant0$ let $F_n(t)=\sum_{m\in\mathbb Z}a_{n,m}t^m$, where we are going to define $a_{n,m}$ for negative $m$ in such a way that $a_{n+1,m}=\frac{a_{n,m-1}+a_{n,m+1}}2$ for all $n\geqslant0$ …

Need explicit formula for certain "$q$-numbers" involving gcd's
The question is motivated by yet another possible approach to a combinatorial problem formulated previously in "Special" meanders. I'm not giving details of the connection as I believe the question is …

Prime factorization "demoted" leads to function whose fixed points are primes
NOT AN ANSWER, just an illustration :D ($g$ up to $n=150$)
Quite amusing...
In case anybody wants to play with this, here is the Mathematica code
g[n_] := Dot @@ Transpose[FactorInteger[n]]
Graph …

Has this formula about prime gaps already been conjectured and/or proven?
Just out of curiosity - here is the plot of $\frac{p_{n+h}-p_n}h$ for $1\leqslant n,h\leqslant500$

theta functions and Brownian motion
For arbitrarily small $\varepsilon$, in a small enough neighborhood of any rational $\frac pq$ (more precisely, for $z=\varepsilon+i(\frac pq\pm\varepsilon')$) one starts seeing regular behavior, so w …

Want more details about the image of a Maass form in the AIM press release concerning LMFDB
Actually I came upon this through MO a couple of days ago: in here
(http://aimath.org/aimnews/lmfdb/) there is a mesmerizing image
The caption reads
A Maass form, one of the 20 different types of ob …

Structures in the plot of the “squareness” of numbers
At least some part of the features may be explained by plotting $\frac1{r(n)}$, it looks like this:
It is more or less clear that the slopes are $\frac1{k^2}$, $k=1,2,3,...$
(So the original plot …

Roots of Bernoulli polynomials - a pattern
Contemplating a question on math.SE, I have stumbled on this:
Here, the point labeled $n$ is that root of the $n$th Bernoulli polynomial which has smallest positive imaginary part.
Does anyone …

On the growth of the Riemann zeta function on the critical line
Visually,
where black dots are values of $\zeta\left(\frac12+it\right)$ and the red ones are at the distance $\frac14+t^2$ from the origin.
