Let $\mathcal{A}'$ be the set of integers missing any three fixed digits from their decimal expansion. We produce primes in a thin sequence by proving an asymptotic formula for counting primes of the form $p = m^2 + \ell^2$, with $\ell \in…

Starting with Zhang's theorem on the infinitude of prime doubles, we give an inductive argument that there exists an infinite number of prime $k$-tuples for at least one admissible set $\mathcal{H}_k=\{h_1,\ldots,h_k\}$ for each $k$.

This paper analyzes the emergence and distribution of potential twin primes, pairs of integers that are both relatively prime to the first n primes or to a given set M of primes, and which are the breeding grounds of true twin primes. It…

Let $m \in \mathbb{N}$ be large. We show that there exist infinitely many primes $q_{1}< \cdot\cdot\cdot < q_{m+1}$ such that \[ q_{m+1}-q_{1}=O(e^{7.63m}) \] and $q_{j}+2$ has at most \[ \frac{7.36m}{\log 2} + \frac{4\log m}{\log 2} + 21…

In this article we present method of solving some additive problems with primes. The method may be employed to the Goldbach-Euler conjecture and the twin primes conjecture. The presented method also makes it possible to obtain some…

This paper is concerned with the existence of consecutive pairs and consecutive triples of multiplicatively dependent integers. A theorem by LeVeque on Pillai's equation implies that the only consecutive pairs of multiplicatively dependent…

We study whether sufficiently large integers can be written in the form cp+T_x, where p is either zero or a prime congruent to r mod d, and T_x=x(x+1)/2 is a triangular number. We also investigate whether there are infinitely many positive…

The computer data up to $2^{44}\approx 1.76\times 10^{13}$ on the gaps between consecutive twins is presented. The simple derivation of the heuristic formula describing computer results contained in the recent papers by P.F.Kelly and…

This paper is about producing a new kind of the pairs which we call it MS-pairs. To produce these pairs, we use an algorithm for dividing a natural number $x$ by two for two arbitrary numbers and consider their related graphs. We present…

For $x>0$ let $\pi(x)$ denote the number of primes not exceeding $x$. For integers $a$ and $m>0$, we determine when there is an integer $n>1$ with $\pi(n)=(n+a)/m$. In particular, we show that for any integers $m>2$ and $a\le\lceil…

We introduce and consider a certain probability question involving elementary number theory and the likelihood that a fixed prime will appear in a certain recursively defined factorization of an integer. We derive several convergent…

We study additive properties of consecutive prime numbers and the primality of the sums they generate. For a given prime number $p_n$, we consider the sums \[ S_k(p_n) = p_n + p_{n+1} + \cdots + p_{n+k-1}, \] where $k \ge 3$ is an odd…

In his Classical approximation to the Twin prime problem, Selberg proved that for $x$ sufficiently large, there is an $n \in (x,2x)$ such that $2^{\Omega(n)}+2^{\Omega(n+2)} \leq \lambda$ with $\lambda=14$, where $\Omega(n)$ is the number…

In this paper, we obtain a lower bound for the number of primes $p\leq x$ such that $p-1$ is a sum of two squares and $p+2$ has a bounded number of prime factors. The proof uses the vector sieve framework, involving a semi-linear sieve and…

We formulate some refinements of Goldbach's conjectures based on heuristic arguments and numerical data. For instance, any even number greater than 4 is conjectured to be a sum of two primes with one prime being 3 mod 4. In general, for…

We apply the Inclusion-Exclusion Principle to a unique pair of prime number subsequences to determine whether these subsequences form a small set or a large set and thus whether the infinite sum of the inverse of their terms converges or…
