1. There is no existing any quadratic interval $\eta_{n}:=(n^{2},(n+1)^{2}],$ which contains less than 2 prime numbers. The number of prime numbers within $\eta_{n}$ goes averagely linear with n to infinity. 2. The exact law of the number…

Let $k\geq 2$ be a fixed natural number. We establish the existence of infinitely many pairs of consecutive primes $p_n$, $p_{n+1}$ satisfying $$ p_{n+1}-p_n\geq c\:\frac{\log p_n\: \log_2 p_n\: \log_4 p_n}{\log_3 p_n}\:,$$ with $c$ being a…

Counting the number of prime numbers up to a certain natural number and describing the asymptotic behavior of such a counting function has been studied by famous mathematicians like Gauss, Legendre, Dirichlet, and Euler. The prime number…

We investigate progressions in the set of pairs of integers $\mathbb{Z}^2$ and define a generalisation of the Jacobsthal function. For this function, we conjecture a specific upper bound and prove that this bound would be a sufficient…

Consider the set of all natural numbers that are co-prime to primes less than or equal to a given prime. Then given a consecutive pair of numbers in that set with an arbitrary even gap, we prove there exists an unbounded number of actual…

The difference between two consecutive prime numbers is called the distance between the primes. We study the statistical properties of the distances and their increments (the difference between two consecutive distances) for a sequence…

New exceptional (i.e. non-repeating) prime number multiplets are given and formulated in terms of arithmetic progressions, along with laws governing them. Accompanying repeating prime number multiplets are pointed out. Prime number…

Let $t \in \mathbb{N}$, $\eta >0$. Suppose that $x$ is a sufficiently large real number and $q$ is a natural number with $q \leq x^{5/12-\eta}$, $q$ not a multiple of the conductor of the exceptional character $\chi^*$ (if it exists).…

Due to the distribution of primes among integers, we establish an upper bound for the probability $\mathbb{P}_n$ that the Goldbach conjecture fails. Assuming the conjecture holds true for all even number less than $2N$, we prove this…

In this paper, we show some results about the gap between a prime number and its consecutive prime number for large enough prime numbers. We show that the gap between a prime number $p_n$ and its consecutive prime number is not larger than…

In this paper it was shown that all prime numbers lie on 96 half-lines. At the same time, it was shown that if a given number does not lie on any of the above half-lines, then it is a composite number. A corresponding linear mathematical…

Let $L$ be a primitive Gaussian line, that is, a line in the complex plane that contains two, and hence infinitely many, coprime Gaussian integers. We prove that there exists an integer $G_L$ such that for every integer $n\geq G_L$ there…

In the present work we investigate the largest possible gaps between consecutive numbers which can be written as the difference of two primes. The best known upper bounds are the same as those concerning the largest possible difference of…

For a Carmichael number $n$ with prime factors $p_1,\cdots,p_m$, define $$K=GCD[p_1-1,\cdots,p_m-1],$$ and let $C_\nu(X)$ denote the number of Carmichael numbers up to $X$ such that $K=\nu$. Assuming a strong conjecture on the first prime…

The study of finding blocks of primes in certain arithmetic sequences is one of the classical problems in number theory. It is also very interesting to study blocks of consecutive elements in such sequences that are pairwise coprime. In…

Let $g(n)$ be the largest positive integer $k$ such that there are distinct primes $p_i$ for $1\leq i\leq k$ so that $p_i |n+i$. This function is related to a celebrated conjecture of C.A. Grimm. We establish upper and lower bounds for…
