Approximating reals by sums of two rationals

We generalize Dirichlet's diophantine approximation theorem to approximating any real number $α$ by a sum of two rational numbers $\frac{a_1}{q_1} + \frac{a_2}{q_2}$ with denominators $1 \leq q_1, q_2 \leq N$. This turns out to be related to the congruence equation problem $x y \equiv c \pmod q$ with $1 \leq x, y \leq q^{1/2 + ε}$.

Finding Almost Squares II

In this article, we study short intervals that contain another type of "almost square", an integer $n$ which can be factored in two different ways $n = a_1 b_1 = a_2 b_2$ with $a_1, a_2, b_1, b_2$ close to $\sqrt{n}$.

A note on Primes in Short Intervals

Instead of a strong quantitative form of the Hardy-Littlewood prime $k$-tuple conjecture, one can assume an average form of it and still obtains the same distribution result on $ψ(x+h) - ψ(x)$ by Montgomery and Soundararajan [1].

Finding Almost Squares

We study short intervals which contain an ``almost square'', an integer $n$ that can be factored as $n = ab$ with $a$, $b$ close to $\sqrt{n}$. This is related to the problem on distribution of $n^2 α\pmod 1$ and the problem on gaps between sums of two squares.

Higher moments of primes in short intervals I

In this article, we prove an "equivalence" between two higher even moments of primes in short intervals under Riemann Hypothesis. We also provide numerical evidence in support of these asymptotic formulas.

Higher moments of primes in short intervals II

Given good knowledge on the even moments, we derive asymptotic formulas for $λ$-th moments of primes in short intervals and prove "equivalence" result on odd moments. We also provide numerical evidence in support of these results.

Lower order terms of the second moment of $S(t)$

In this article, we derive an asymptotic formula for the second moment of $S(t)$ which includes the lower order terms using a prediction from the ratios conjecture of Conrey, Farmer and Zirnbauer. The formula matches very well with actual values of the second moment.

More precise pair correlation of zeros and primes in short intervals

Goldston and Montgomery [3] proved that the Strong Pair Correlation Conjecture and two second moments of primes in short intervals are equivalent to each other under Riemann Hypothesis. In this paper, we get the second main terms for each of the above and show that they are almost equivalent to each other.

More precise Pair Correlation Conjecture

In this paper, we derive a more precise version of the Strong Pair Correlation Conjecture on the zeros of the Riemann zeta function under Riemann Hypothesis and Twin Prime Conjecture.
