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 known 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.
There are two puzzles surrounding the Pleiades, or Seven Sisters. First, why are the mythological stories surrounding them, typically involving seven young girls being chased by a man associated with the constellation Orion, so similar in vastly sepa
Dirichlets proof of infinitely many primes in arithmetic progressions was published in 1837, introduced L-series for the first time, and it is said to have started rigorous analytic number theory. Dirichlet uses Eulers earlier work on the zeta functi
It is an open problem to provide a characterization of quasiconformally homogeneous Riemann surfaces. We show that given the current literature, this problem can be broken into four open cases with respect to the topology of the underlying surface. T
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
We show that for all large enough $x$ the interval $[x,x+x^{1/2}log^{1.39}x]$ contains numbers with a prime factor $p > x^{18/19}.$ Our work builds on the previous works of Heath-Brown and Jia (1998) and Jia and Liu (2000) concerning the same problem
