Abstract

We prove versions of Goldbach conjectures for Gaussian primes in arbitrary sectors. Fix an interval ωT\omega \subset \mathbb{T}. There is an integer NωN_\omega , so that every odd integer nn with N(n)>NωN(n)>N_\omega and dist(arg(n),Tω)>(logN(n))B\text{dist}( \text{arg}(n) , \mathbb{T}\setminus \omega ) > (\log N(n)) ^{-B}, is a sum of three Gaussian primes n=p1+p2+p3n=p_1+p_2+p_3, with arg(pj)ω\text{arg}(p_j) \in \omega , for j=1,2,3j=1,2,3. A density version of the binary Goldbach conjecture in a sector is also proved.
