Abstract
We prove the existence of infinitely many imaginary quadratic fields whose discriminant has exactly three distinct prime factors and whose class group has an element of a fixed large order. The main tool we use is solving an additive problem via the circle method.
Abstract
We sharpen Hua’s result by proving that each sufficiently large odd integer N can be written as

Abstract
A classical additive basis question is Waring’s problem. It has been extended to integer polynomial and non-integer power sequences. In this paper, we will consider a wider class of functions, namely functions from a Hardy field, and show that they are asymptotic bases.
Abstract
Let p i be prime numbers. In this paper, it is proved that for any integer k≧5, with at most exceptions, all positive even integers up to N can be expressed in the form . This improves the result for some c>0 due to Lu and Shan [12], and it is a generalization for a series of results of Ren and Tsang [15], [16] and Bauer [1–4] for the problem in the form . This method can also be used for some other similar forms.

Abstract
We show that if A is a subset of {1, …, n} which has no pair of elements whose difference is equal to p − 1 with p a prime number, then the size of A is O(n(log log n)−c(log log log log log n)) for some absolute c > 0.
Abstract
We show that for every fixed A > 0 and θ > 0 there is a ϑ = ϑ(A, θ) > 0 with the following property. Let n be odd and sufficiently large, and let Q 1 = Q 2:= n 1/2(log n)−ϑ and Q 3:= (log n) θ . Then for all q 3 ≦ Q 3, all reduced residues a 3 mod q 3, almost all q 2 ≦ Q 2, all admissible residues a 2 mod q 2, almost all q 1 ≦ Q 1 and all admissible residues a 1 mod q 1, there exists a representation n = p 1 + p 2 + p 3 with primes p i ≡ a i (q i ), i = 1, 2, 3.
Abstract
It is proved that every sufficiently large even integer is a sum of one prime, one square of prime, two cubes of primes and 161 powers of 2.
