Let $P$ be a subset of the primes of lower density strictly larger than $\frac12$. Then, every sufficiently large even integer is a sum of four primes from the set $P$. We establish similar results for $k$-summands, with $k\geq 4$, and for…

Natural numbers can be divided in two non-overlapping infinite sets, primes and composites, with composites factorizing into primes. Despite their apparent simplicity, the elucidation of the architecture of natural numbers with primes as…

Consider a system \Psi of non-constant affine-linear forms \psi_1,...,\psi_t: Z^d -> Z, no two of which are linearly dependent. Let N be a large integer, and let K be a convex subset of [-N,N]^d. A famous and difficult open conjecture of…

In this paper, we study the mixed Littlewood conjecture with pseudo-absolute values. For any pseudo absolute value sequence $\mathcal{D}$, we obtain the sharp criterion such that for almost every $\alpha$ the inequality \begin{equation*}…

We present in this work a heuristic expression for the density of prime numbers. Our expression leads to results which possesses approximately the same precision of the Riemann's function in the domain that goes from 2 to 1010 at least.…

Using evaluations of the difference between consecutive primes we develop another way of estimating of the number of primes in the interval $(n, 2n)$. We also discuss the ultra Cramer conjecture, $p_{n+1} - p_n = O(log^{1+\epsilon}p_n)$…

Special prime families (twin, Sophie Germain, safe, cousin, sexy, Chen, and isolated primes) are central objects of analytic number theory, yet no efficiently computable probabilistic filter exists for identifying likely members among known…

In a recent joint work with D.A. Goldston and C.Y. Yildirim we just missed by a hairbreadth a proof that bounded gaps between primes occur infinitely often. In the present work it is shown that adding to the primes a much thinner set,…

Most prime gaps results have been proven using tools from analytic or algebraic number theory in the last few centuries. In this paper, we would like to present some probabilistic way of proving many essential results. A major component of…

We derive explicit formulas for integrals of certain symmetric polynomials used in Keiju Sono's multidimensional sieve of $E_2$-numbers, i.e., integers which are products of two distinct primes. We use these computations to produce the…

The results of the computer investigation of the sign changes of the difference between the number of twin primes $\pi_2(x)$ and the Hardy--Littlewood conjecture $c_2\Li_2(x)$ are reported. It turns out that $\pi_2(x) - c_2\Li_2(x)$ changes…

Using the Rowland idea, we find two infinite sets of generators of primes. We also pose some conjectures concerning twin primes.

We bring to bear an empirical model of the distribution of twin primes and produce two distinct results. The first is that we can make a quantitative probabilistic prediction of the occurrence of gaps in the sequence of twins within the…

Let $p_n$ is the $n$-th prime. With help of the Cram\'er-like model, we prove that the set of intervals of the form $(2p_n,\enskip2p_{n+1})$ containing at list 3 primes has a positive density with respect to the set of all intervals of such…

Taking $r>0$, let $\pi_{2r}(x)$ denote the number of prime pairs $(p, p+2r)$ with $p\le x$. The prime-pair conjecture of Hardy and Littlewood (1923) asserts that $\pi_{2r}(x)\sim 2C_{2r} {\rm li}_2(x)$ with an explicit constant $C_{2r}>0$.…
