We discuss $Q(n)$, the number of ways a given integer $n$ may be written as a sum of distinct primes, and study its asymptotic form $Q_{as}(n)$ valid in the limit $ntoinfty$. We obtain $Q_{as}(n)$ by Laplace inverting the fermionic partition function of primes, in number theory called the generating function of the distinct prime partitions, in the saddle-point approximation. We find that our result of $Q_{as}(n)$, which includes two higher-order corrections to the leading term in its exponent and a pre-exponential correction factor, approximates the exact $Q(n)$ far better than its simple leading-order exponential form given so far in the literature.

In this paper, we discuss P(n), the number of ways in which a given integer n may be written as a sum of primes. In particular, an asymptotic form P_as(n) valid for n towards infinity is obtained analytically using standard techniques of quantum stat istical mechanics. First, the bosonic partition function of primes, or the generating function of unrestricted prime partitions in number theory, is constructed. Next, the density of states is obtained using the saddle-point method for Laplace inversion of the partition function in the limit of large n. This directly gives the asymptotic number of prime partitions P_as(n). The leading term in the asymptotic expression grows exponentially as sqrt[n/ln(n)] and agrees with previous estimates. We calculate the next-to-leading order term in the exponent, porportional to ln[ln(n)]/ln(n), and show that an earlier result in the literature for its coefficient is incorrect. Furthermore, we also calculate the next higher order correction, proportional to 1/ln(n) and given in Eq.(43), which so far has not been available in the literature. Finally, we compare our analytical results with the exact numerical values of P(n) up to n sim 8 10^6. For the highest values, the remaining error between the exact P(n) and our P_as(n) is only about half of that obtained with the leading-order (LO) approximation. But we also show that, unlike for other types of partitions, the asymptotic limit for the prime partitions is still quite far from being reached even for n sim 10^7.
We build up a directed network tracing links from a given integer to its divisors and analyze the properties of the Google matrix of this network. The PageRank vector of this matrix is computed numerically and it is shown that its probability is inve rsely proportional to the PageRank index thus being similar to the Zipf law and the dependence established for the World Wide Web. The spectrum of the Google matrix of integers is characterized by a large gap and a relatively small number of nonzero eigenvalues. A simple semi-analytical expression for the PageRank of integers is derived that allows to find this vector for matrices of billion size. This network provides a new PageRank order of integers.

We call an odd positive integer $n$ a $textit{Descartes number}$ if there exist positive integers $k,m$ such that $n = km$ and begin{equation} sigma(k)(m+1) = 2km end{equation} Currently, $mathcal{D} = 3^{2}7^{2}11^{2}13^{2}22021$ is the only kno wn Descartes number. In $2008$, Banks et al. proved that $mathcal{D}$ is the only cube-free Descartes number with fewer than seven distinct prime factors. In the present paper, we extend the methods of Banks et al. to show that there is no cube-free Descartes number with seven distinct prime factors.

Given a negative $D>-(log X)^{log 2-delta}$, we give a new upper bound on the number of square free integers $<X$ which are represented by some but not all forms of the genus of a primitive positive definite binary quadratic form $f$ of discriminant $D$. We also give an analogous upper bound for square free integers of the form $q+a<X$ where $q$ is prime and $ainmathbb Z$ is fixed. Combined with the 1/2-dimensional sieve of Iwaniec, this yields a lower bound on the number of such integers $q+a<X$ represented by a binary quadratic form of discriminant $D$, where $D$ is allowed to grow with $X$ as above. An immediate consequence of this, coming from recent work of the authors in [BF], is a lower bound on the number of primes which come up as curvatures in a given primitive integer Apollonian circle packing.
We study the number $P(n)$ of partitions of an integer $n$ into sums of distinct squares and derive an integral representation of the function $P(n)$. Using semi-classical and quantum statistical methods, we determine its asymptotic average part $P_{ as}(n)$, deriving higher-order contributions to the known leading-order expression [M. Tran {it et al.}, Ann. Phys. (N.Y.) {bf 311}, 204 (2004)], which yield a faster convergence to the average values of the exact $P(n)$. From the Fourier spectrum of $P(n)$ we obtain hints that integer-valued frequencies belonging to the smallest Pythagorean triples $(m,p,q)$ of integers with $m^2+p^2=q^2$ play an important role in the oscillations of $P(n)$. Finally we analyze the oscillating part $delta P(n)=P(n)-P_{as}(n)$ in the spirit of semi-classical periodic orbit theory [M. Brack and R. K. Bhaduri: {it Semiclassical Physics} (Bolder, Westview Press, 2003)]. A semi-classical trace formula is derived which accurately reproduces the exact $delta P(n)$ for $n > sim 500$ using 10 pairs of `orbits. For $n > sim 4000$ only two pairs of orbits with the frequencies 4 and 5 -- belonging to the lowest Pythagorean triple (3,4,5) -- are relevant and create the prominent beating pattern in the oscillations. For $n > sim 100,000$ the beat fades away and the oscillations are given by just one pair of orbits with frequency 4.
