A note on bounded gaps between primes

Number Theory 2013-07-18 v4

Abstract

As a refinement of the celebrated recent work of Yitang Zhang we show that any admissible k-tuple of integers contains at least two primes and almost primes in each component infinitely often if k is at least 181000. This implies that there are infinitely many gaps between consecutive primes of size at most 2530338, with an improved admissible k-tuple of Andrew W. Sutherland to 2326476.
