A note on the involutive invariants of certain pretzel knots
We compute the involutive knot invariants for pretzel knots of the form P(-2,m,n) for m and n odd and greater than or equal to 3.

Infinitely many twin prime polynomials of odd degree
While the twin prime conjecture is still famously open, it holds true in the setting of finite fields: There are infinitely many pairs of monic irreducible polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q$ that differ by a fixed constant, for each $q \geq 3$. Elementary, constructive proofs were given for different cases by Hall and Pollack. In the same spirit, we discuss the construction of a further infinite family of twin prime tuples of odd degree, and its relations to the existence of certain Wieferich primes and to arithmetic properties of the combinatorial Bell numbers.
