    A ternary Diophantine inequality involving primes

    Let 1<c<4336. In this paper, it is proved that for every sufficiently large real number N, the Diophantine inequality

    |pc1+pc2+pc3N|<N910c(4336c)
    is solvable in primes p1,p2,p3. This result constitutes an improvement upon that of Baker and Weingartner.

    Different prime graphs of a nearring with respect to an ideal

    Let I be an ideal of a nearring N. We introduce the notions of equiprime graph of N denoted by EQI (N) and c-prime graph of N denoted by CI (N). We relate EQI (N), CI (N) and the graph of a nearring with respect to an ideal, GI (N). We prove that diam(EQI (N\I)) ≤ 3 and diam(CI (N\I)) ≤ 3 and deduce that the prime graphs are edge partitionable. It is well-known that the homomorphic image of a prime ideal need not be a prime ideal in general. We study graph homomorphisms and obtain conditions under which the primeness property of an ideal is preserved under nearring homomorphisms.

    A note on Diophantine approximation by unlike powers of primes

    It is proved that if λ1,λ2,,λ5 are nonzero real numbers, not all of the same sign and λ1/λ2 is irrational, then for given real numbers η and σ, 0<σ<5252, the inequality

    |λ1p1+λ2p22+λ3p33+λ4p44+λ5p55+η|<(max1j5 pjj)σ
    has infinitely many solutions in prime variables p1,p2,p3,p4,p5. This result constitutes an improvement upon that of Liu for the range 0<σ<5288.

    The sum of a prime and a Fibonacci number

    In this paper, we show that the lower density of integers representable as the sum of a prime and a Fibonacci number is at least 0.0254905.

    On a Diophantine equation with prime numbers

    Let [𝜃] denote the integral part of the real number 𝜃. In this paper, it is proved that for 2<c<408197, the Diophantine equation [pc1]+[pc2]+[pc3]+[pc4]+[pc5]=N is solvable in prime variables p1,,p5 for sufficiently large integer N.

    PRIME IDEALS IN TERNARY SEMIGROUPS

    In this paper we define prime, semiprime and irreducible ideals in ternary semigroups. We also define semisimple ternary semigroups and prove that a ternary semigroup is semisimple if and only if each of its ideals is semiprime.
