Paul Erdős and the Rise of Statistical Thinking in Elementary Number Theory
- Mathematics
- 2013
It might be argued that elementary number theory began with Pythagoras who noted two-and-a-half millennia ago that 220 and 284 form an amicable pair. That is, if s(n) denotes the sum of the proper…

A set $R\subset \mathbb{N}$ is called rational if it is well approximable by finite unions of arithmetic progressions, meaning that for every $\unicode[STIX]{x1D716}>0$ there exists a set $B=\bigcup…
Reciprocal Sums as a Knowledge Metric: Theory, Computation, and Perfect Numbers
- MathematicsAm. Math. Mon.
