Call a set of integers {b1, b2, . . . , bk} admissible if for any prime p, at least one congruence class modulo p does not contain any of the bi. Let ρ ∗(x) be the size of the largest admissible set in [1, x]. The Prime k-tuples Conjecture states that any for any admissible set, there are infinitely many n such that n+b1, n+b2, . . . n+bk are simultaneously prime. In 1974, Hensley and Richards ...

In this paper, we define hedge operation on a residuated skew lattice and investigate some its properties. We get relationships between some special sets as dense, nilpotent, idempotent, regular elements sets and their hedges.  By examples, we show that hedge of a dense element is not a dense and hedge of a regular element is not a regular. Also hedge of a nilpotent element is a nilpotent and h...

A frame $L$ is called {it coz-dense} if $Sigma_{coz(alpha)}=emptyset$ implies $alpha=mathbf 0$. Let $mathcal RL$ be the ring of real-valued continuous functions on a coz-dense and completely regular frame $L$. We present a description of the socle of the ring $mathcal RL$ based on minimal ideals of $mathcal RL$ and zero sets in pointfree topology. We show that socle of $mathcal RL$ is an essent...
