Finding irreducible polynomials over Q (or over Z ) is not always easy. However, it is well-known that the mth cyclotomic polynomials are irreducible over Q . In this paper, we define the mth modified cyclotomic polynomials and we get more irreducible polynomials over Q systematically by using the modified cyclotomic polynomials. Since not all modified cyclotomic polynomials are irreducible, a criterion to decide the irreducibility of those polynomials is studied. Also, we count the number of irreducible mth modified cyclotomic polynomials when m = p α with p a prime number and α a positive integer.

For a positive integer [Formula: see text], the [Formula: see text]th cyclotomic polynomial [Formula: see text] is called flat if its coefficients are [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]. Let [Formula: see text] be odd primes with [Formula: see text] for some positive integer [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we classify all the flat cyclotomic polynomials [Formula: see text] when [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text].

Let p be a prime number ≥ 5, and n a positive integer > 1. This note is concerned with the diophantine equation x4 − y4 = nzp. We prove that, under certain conditions on n, this equation has no non-trivial solution in Z if p ≥ C(n), where C(n) is an effective constant.

AbstractErdős and Odlyzko proved that odd integers k such that k2n+1 is prime for some positive integer n have a positive lower density. In this paper, we characterize all arithmetic progressions in which natural numbers that can be expressed in the form (p−1)2−n (where p is a prime number) have a positive proportion. We also prove that an arithmetic progression consisting of odd numbers can be obtained from a covering system if and only if those integers in such a progression which can be expressed in the form (p−1)2−n have an asymptotic density of zero.

1. In deriving an expression for the number of representations of a sufficiently large integer N in the formwhere k: is a positive integer, s(k) a suitably large function of k and pi is a prime number, i = 1, 2, …, s(k), by Vinogradov's method it is necessary to obtain estimates for trigonometrical sums of the typewhere ω = l/k and the real number a satisfies 0 ≦ α ≦ 1 and is “near” a rational number a/q, (a, q) = 1, with “large” denominator q. See Estermann (1), Chapter 3, for the case k = 1 or Hua (2), for the general case. The meaning of “near” and “arge” is made clear below—Lemma 4—as it is necessary for us to quote Hua's estimate. In this paper, in Theorem 1, an estimate is obtained for the trigonometrical sumwhere α satisfies the same conditions as above and where π denotes a squarefree number with r prime factors. This estimate enables one to derive expressions for the number of representations of a sufficiently large integer N in the formwhere s(k) has the same meaning as above and where πri, i = 1, 2, …, s(k), denotes a square-free integer with ri prime factors.

We consider non-zero polynomials f(x1, …, xk) in k variables x1, …, xk with coefficients in the finite field GF[q] (q = pn for some prime p and positive integer n). We assume that the polynomials have been normalised by selecting one polynomial from each equivalence class with respect to multiplication by non-zero elements of GF[q]. By the degree of a polynomial f(x1, …, xk) will be understood the ordered set (m1, …, mk), where mi is the degree of f(x1 ,…, xk) in x1(i = 1, 2, …, K). The degree (m,…, mk) of a polynomial will be called totally positive if mi>0, i = 1, 2, …, k.

In this paper, we give a new proof of the divergence of the sum of the reciprocals of primes using the number of distinct prime divisors of positive integer n, and the placement of lattice points on a hyperbola given by n=pr with prime number p. We also offer both a new expression of the average sum of the number of distinct prime divisors, and a new proof of its divergence, which is very intriguing by its elementary approach.

Let p be an odd prime number and n be a positive integer. Let vpn, N∗, and Q+ denote the p-adic valuation of the integer n, the set of positive integers, and the set of positive rational numbers, respectively. In this paper, we introduce an arithmetic function fp:N∗⟶Q+ defined by fpn≔n/pvpn1−vpn for any positive integer n. We show several interesting arithmetic properties about that function and then use them to establish some curious results involving the p-adic valuation. Some of these results extend Farhi’s results from the case of even prime to that of odd prime.

Let $a_{1},a_{2},\ldots ,a_{m}$ and $b_{1},b_{2},\ldots ,b_{l}$ be two sequences of pairwise distinct positive integers greater than $1$. Assume also that none of the above numbers is a perfect power. If for each positive integer $n$ and prime number $p$ the number $\prod _{i=1}^{m}(1-a_{i}^{n})$ is divisible by $p$ if and only if the number $\prod _{j=1}^{l}(1-b_{j}^{n})$ is divisible by $p$, then $m=l$ and $\{a_{1},a_{2},\ldots ,a_{m}\}=\{b_{1},b_{2},\ldots ,b_{l}\}$.
