We study the number of primes with a given primitive root and in an arithmetic progression under the assumption of a suitable form of the generalized Riemann Hypothesis. Previous work of Lenstra, Moree and Stevenhagen has given asymptotics…

This paper shows the equivalence of the Riemann hypothesis to an sequence of elementary inequalities involving the harmonic numbers H_n, the sum of the reciprocals of the integers from 1 to n. It is a modification of a criterion due to Guy…

We prove that assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis every even integer larger than $\exp(\exp(15.85))$ can be written as the sum of a prime number and a number that has at most two prime factors.

Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, we prove the latest explicit version of the prime number theorem for short intervals. Using this result, and assuming the generalised Riemann hypothesis for Dirichlet $L$-functions is true, we then establish…

Let $N$ be a sufficiently large, odd integer. We prove an asymptotic formula for the number of representations of $N$ as the sum of three primes, one of which is smaller than a given $U$. By inserting the currently best zero-density…

We prove that a suitable asymptotic formula for the average number of representations of integers $n=p_{1}^{3}+p_{2}^{3}+p_{3}^{3}+p_{4}^{3}$, where $p_1,p_2,p_3,p_4$ are prime numbers, holds in intervals shorter than the the ones…

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 pose 100 new conjectures on representations involving primes or related things, which might interest number theorists and stimulate further research. Below are five typical examples: (i) For any positive integer $n$, there exists…

For a fixed integer $k \ge 0$, consider representations of positive integers as sums of binomial coefficients of the form $\binom{n}{k}$. While exact minimal bounds for the number of required summands are known only in a few low-dimensional…

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…

We survey the potential for progress in additive number theory arising from recent advances concerning major arc bounds associated with mean value estimates for smooth Weyl sums. We focus attention on the problem of representing large…

We continue our recent work on additive problems with prime summands: we already studied the \emph{average} number of representations of an integer as a sum of two primes, and also considered individual integers. Furthermore, we dealt with…

We will see that key concepts of number theory can be defined for arbitrary operations. We give a generalized distributivity for hyperoperations (usual arithmetic operations and operations going beyond exponentiation) and a generalization…

We prove that for a positive integer $k$ the primes in certain kinds of intervals can not distribute too 'uniformly' among the reduced residue classes modulo $k$. Hereby, we prove a generalization of a conjecture of Recaman and establish…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we prove that for all $x\geq 2$, there exists at least one even integer within the interval $(x, x+123\log^2x]$, that can be expressed as the sum of two primes. This result is an improvement over the recent…
