Dickson conjectured that a set of polynomials will take on infinitely many simultaneous prime values. Later others, such as Hardy and Littlewood, gave estimates for the number of these primes. In this article we look at this conjecture,…
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, $p_{n+1} - p_n = O(log^{1+\epsilon}p_n)$…
We relate the size of the error term in the Hardy-Littlewood conjectured formula for the number of prime pairs to the $L^{1}$ norm of an exponential sum over the primes formed with the von Mangoldt function.
We investigate some extremal problems in Fourier analysis and their connection to a problem in prime number theory. In particular, we improve the current bounds for the largest possible gap between consecutive primes assuming the Riemann…
Probabilistic models for the distribution of primes in the natural numbers are constructed in the article. The author found and proved the probabilistic estimates of the deviation $R(x)=|\pi(x)- Li(x)|$. The author has analyzed the…
This paper describes some of the ideas used in the development of our work on small gaps between primes.
We resolve a function field version of two conjectures concerning the variance of the number of primes in short intervals (Goldston and Montgomery) and in arithmetic progressions (Hooley). A crucial ingredient in our work are recent…
In this paper, we show a new upper bound of prime gaps, that is the gap between a prime number and its consecutive prime number. We show that the gap between a prime number $p_n$ and its consecutive prime number is not larger than…
Sums of the singular series constants that appear in the Hardy--Littlewood $k$-tuples conjectures have long been studied in connection to the distribution of primes. We study constrained sums of singular series, where the sum is taken over…
In recent work, we considered the frequencies of patterns of consecutive primes $\pmod{q}$ and numerically found biases toward certain patterns and against others. We made a conjecture explaining these biases, the dominant factor in which…
We present a deterministic relationship between relative primes and twin primes in successively larger sequences of the natural numbers. This enables setting a finite lower limit on the occurrence of actual twin primes in an unbounded…
Let $K\geq 2$ be a natural number and $a_i,b_i\in\mathbb{Z}$ for $i=1,\ldots,K-1$. We use the large sieve to derive explicit upper bounds for the number of prime $k$-tuplets, i.e., for the number of primes $p\leq x$ for which all $a_ip+b_i$…
In the setting of spaces of homogeneous type, we study some Hardy type inequalities, which notably appeared in the proofs of local T(b) theorems as in [AR]. We give some suffi cient conditions ensuring their validity, related to the…
The Bateman--Horn Conjecture predicts how often an irreducible polynomial $f(x) \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ assumes prime values. We demonstrate that with sufficient averaging in the coefficients of $f$ (viz. exponential in the size of the inputs),…
We derive heuristically formula for the $k$--moments $M_k(x)$ of the gaps between consecutive primes$<x $ represented directly by $x$$\pi(x)$ --- the number of primes up to: $M_k(x)= \Gamma(k+1)x^k/\pi^{k-1}(x)+\mathcal{O}(x)$, We…
The posterior distribution of the number of components k in a finite mixture satisfies a set of inequality constraints. The result holds irrespective of the parametric form of the mixture components and under assumptions on the prior…
Based on Euclid's algorithm, we find a kind of special sequences which play an interesting role in the study of primes. We call them W Sequences. They not only ties up the distribution of primes in short interval but also enables us to give…
We study the distribution of primes from a topological viewpoint. Certain conjecture is introduced, and we show that it is equivalent to the Riemann Hypothesis.
The distribution of lattice points with relatively $r$-prime is related to problems in the Number Theory such as the Extended Lindel\"{o}f Hypothesis and the Gauss Circle Problem. It is known that Sittinger's result is improved on the…
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…
