We study the distribution of prime numbers under the unlikely assumption that Siegel zeros exist. In particular we prove for \[ \sum_{n \leq X} \Lambda(n) \Lambda(\pm n+h) \] an asymptotic formula which holds uniformly for $h = O(X)$. Such…

From Bombieri's mean value theorem one can deduce the prime number theorem being equivalent to the Riemann hypothesis and the least prime P(q) satisfying P(q)= O(q^2 [ln q]^32) in any arithmetic progressions with common difference q.

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we obtain asymptotic formulas for the average number representations of an even integer as the sum of two primes. We use the method of Bhowmik and Schlage-Puchta and refine their results slightly to obtain a…

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…

For $i\in \{1,2,3\}$, let $E_i(x)$ denote the error term in each of the three theorems of Mertens on the asymptotic distribution of prime numbers. We show that for $i\in \{1,2\}$ the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the condition…

In this paper we present some observations about the well-known Goldbach conjecture. In particular we list and interpret some numerical results which allow us to formulate a relation between prime numbers and even integers. We can also…

We prove some results concerning the distribution of primes on the Riemann hypothesis. First, we prove the explicit result that there exists a prime in the interval $(x-\frac{4}{\pi} \sqrt{x} \log x,x]$ for all $x \geq 2$; this improves a…

In this paper, the estimation formula of the number of primes in a given interval is obtained by using the prime distribution property. For any prime pairs $p>5$ and $ q>5 $, construct a disjoint infinite set sequence $A_1, A_2, \ldots,…

The author gives nontrivial upper and lower bounds for the number of primes in the interval $[x - x^{\theta}, x]$ for some $0.52 \leqslant \theta \leqslant 0.525$, showing that the interval $[x - x^{0.52}, x]$ contains prime numbers for all…

This paper proposes, and demonstrates the efficacy of, an elementary method for establishing a lower bound for cardinalities of selected sets of twin primes, and shows that the proof employed may be modified for selected sets of Goldbach…

This paper updates the explicit interval estimate for primes between consecutive powers. It is shown that there is least one prime between $n^{155}$ and $(n+1)^{155}$ for all $n\geq 1$. This result is in part obtained with a new explicit…

Under the generalized Riemann hypothesis, we illustrate that the ratio of the set of primes $p$ such that $\langle -1, 2 \rangle$ has an odd prime index in $\mathbb{F}_p^*$ to the set of primes $p$ such that the subgroup has index greater…

We show that, for almost all $x$, the interval $(x, x+(\log x)^{2.1}]$ contains products of exactly two primes. This improves on a work of the second author that had $3.51$ in place of $2.1$. To obtain this improvement, we prove a new type…

Let $\mathcal{P}=\{p_1,p_2,...\}$ be the set of all odd primes arranged in increasing order. A Goldbach partition of the even integer $2k>4$ is a way of writing it as a sum of two primes from $\mathcal{P}$ without regard to order. Let…
