Let $mathcal{R}$ be a finite set of integers satisfying appropriate local conditions. We show the existence of long clusters of primes $p$ in bounded length intervals with $p-b$ squarefree for all $b in mathcal{R}$. Moreover, we can enforce that the primes $p$ in our cluster satisfy any one of the following conditions: (1) $p$ lies in a short interval $[N, N+N^{frac{7}{12}+epsilon}]$, (2) $p$ belongs to a given inhomogeneous Beatty sequence, (3) with $c in (frac{8}{9},1)$ fixed, $p^c$ lies in a prescribed interval mod $1$ of length $p^{-1+c+epsilon}$.

We show that there are infinitely many primes $p$ such that $p-1$ is divisible by a square $d^2 geq p^theta$ for $theta=1/2+1/2000.$ This improves the work of Matomaki (2009) who obtained the result for $theta=1/2-varepsilon$ (with the added constraint that $d$ is also a prime), which improved the result of Baier and Zhao (2006) with $theta=4/9-varepsilon.$ Similarly as in the work of Matomaki, we apply Harmans sieve method to detect primes $p equiv 1 , (d^2)$. To break the $theta=1/2$ barrier we prove a new bilinear equidistribution estimate modulo smooth square moduli $d^2$ by using a similar argument as Zhang (2014) used to obtain equidistribution beyond the Bombieri-Vinogradov range for primes with respect to smooth moduli. To optimize the argument we incorporate technical refinements from the Polymath project (2014). Since the moduli are squares, the method produces complete exponential sums modulo squares of primes which are estimated using the results of Cochrane and Zheng (2000).
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $Q$. It is well known that the ring of endomorphisms of $E_p$, the reduction of $E$ modulo a prime $p$ of ordinary reduction, is an order of the quadratic imaginary field $Q(pi_p)$ generated by the Frobenius element $pi_p$. When the curve has complex multiplication (CM), this is always a fixed field as the prime varies. However, when the curve has no CM, very little is known, not only about the order, but about the fields that might appear as algebra of endomorphisms varying the prime. The ring of endomorphisms is obviously related with the arithmetic of $a_p^2-4p$, the discriminant of the characteristic polynomial of the Frobenius element. In this paper, we are interested in the function $pi_{E,r,h}(x)$ counting the number of primes $p$ up to $x$ such that $a_p^2-4p$ is square-free and in the congruence class $r$ modulo $h$. We give in this paper the precise asymptotic for $pi_{E,r,h}(x)$ when averaging over elliptic curves defined over the rationals, and we discuss the relation of this result with the Lang-Trotter conjecture, and with some other problems related to the curve modulo $p$.
We obtain an upper bound for the number of pairs $ (a,b) in {Atimes B} $ such that $ a+b $ is a prime number, where $ A, B subseteq {1,...,N }$ with $|A||B| , gg frac{N^2}{(log {N})^2}$, $, N geq 1$ an integer. This improves on a bound given by Balog, Rivat and Sarkozy.
In this research paper, relationship between every Mersenne prime and certain Natural numbers is explored. We begin by proving that every Mersenne prime is of the form {4n + 3,for some integer n} and generalize the result to all powers of 2. We also tabulate and show their relationship with other whole numbers up to 10. A number of minor results are also proved. Based on these results, approaches to determine the cardinality of Mersenne primes are discussed.
It is proven that there are infinitely prime pairs whose difference is no greater than 20.
