Let $M(x)$ be the length of the largest subinterval of $[1,x]$ which does not contain any sums of two squareful numbers. We prove a lower bound \[ M(x)\gg \frac{\ln x}{(\ln\ln x)^2} \] for all $x\geq 3$. The proof relies on properties of…
Let $X$ be a scheme of finite type over $\mathbf{Z}$. For $p \in \mathcal{P}$ the set of prime numbers, let $N_{X}(p)$ be the number of $\mathbf{F}_{p}$-points of $X/\mathbf{F}_{p}$. For fixed $n\geq 1$ and $a_{1}, \ldots, a_{n} \in…
One field of particular interest in Number Theory concerns the gaps between consecutive primes. Within the last few years, very important results have been achieved on how small these gaps can be. The strongest of these results were…
Goldston and Montgomery [3] proved that the Strong Pair Correlation Conjecture and two second moments of primes in short intervals are equivalent to each other under Riemann Hypothesis. In this paper, we get the second main terms for each…
Prime number multiplet classifications and patterns are extended to negative integers. The extension from prime numbers to single prime powers is also studied. Prime number septets at equal distance are given. It is also shown that each…
We present a variety of prime-generating constructions that are based on sums of primes. The constructions come in all shapes and sizes, varying in the number of dimensions and number of generated primes. Our best result is a construction…
For each $m\geq 1$, there exist infinitely many primes $p_1<p_2<\ldots<p_{m+1}$ such that $p_{m+1}-p_1=O(m^4e^{8m})$ and $p_j+2$ has at most $\frac{16m}{\log 2}+\frac{5\log m}{\log 2}+37$ prime divisors for each $j$.
In this paper, we study the gaps between primes in Beatty sequences following the methods in the recent breakthrough of J. Maynard.
We prove that there is a small but fixed positive integer e such that for every prime larger than a fixed integer, every subset S of the integers modulo p which satisfies |2S|<(2+e)|S| and 2(|2S|)-2|S|+2 < p is contained in an arithmetic…
It is shown that short-range correlations between large prime numbers (~10^5 and larger) have a Poissonian nature. Correlation length \zeta = 4.5 for the primes ~10^5 and it is increasing logarithmically according to the prime number…
We give a simple naming argument for establishing lower bounds on the combinatorial distance between (positive) braid words.
The main result of the paper is that assuming that the level $\theta$ of distribution of primes exceeds 1/2, then there exists a positive $d\leq C(\theta)$ such that there are arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions with the property that…
It is a well-known fact that for any natural number $n$, there always exists a prime in $[n, 2n]$. Our aim in this note is to generalize this result to $[n, kn]$. A lower as well as an upper bound on the number of primes in $[n, kn]$ were…
We formulate, using heuristic reasoning, precise conjectures for the range of the number of primes in intervals of length $y$ around $x$, where $y\ll (\log x)^2$. In particular we conjecture that the maximum grows surprisingly slowly as $y$…
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…
One of the themes of this paper is recent results on large gaps between primes. The first of these results has been achieved in the paper [12] by Ford, Green, Konyagin and Tao. It was later improved in the joint paper [13] of these four…
The author sharpens a result of Jia (1996), showing that the interval $[n, n+n^{\frac{1}{21.5}+\varepsilon}]$ contains prime numbers for almost all $n$. Watt's mean value bound, a delicate sieve decomposition and more accurate estimates for…
Let $p$ be a prime and ${\mathcal{P}_{p}}$ the set of positive integers which are prime to $p$. We establish the following interesting congruence \[\sum\limits_{\begin{smallmatrix} i+j+k={{p}^{r}} i,j,k\in {\mathcal{P}_{p}}…
We prove that a suitable explicit formula for the Cesaro-averaged number of representations of an integer as a sum of two primes holds in short intervals.
In this paper, we prove certain theorems about three consecutive primes.
