We show that every even number $>\exp\exp 36$ can be represented as the sum of a prime and a product of at most two primes.

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.

In 1973, J.-R. Chen showed that every large even integer is a sum of a prime and a product of at most two primes. In this paper, the author indicates and fixes the issues in a simplified proof of this result given by Pan et al.

In this paper, it is proved that every sufficiently large even integer can be represented as the sum of two squares of primes, two cubes of primes, two biquadrates of primes and 16 powers of 2. Furthermore, there are at least 5.313% odd…

In this paper we will propose a strategy to prove Goldbach's conjecture: every even integer greater than 2 can be written as the sum of two primes.

It is shown that every sufficiently large even integer is a sum of two primes and exactly 13 powers of 2. Under the Generalized Rieman Hypothesis one can replace 13 by 7. Unlike previous work on this problem, the proof avoids numerical…

We prove that every integer greater than two may be written as the sum of a prime and a square-free number.

We show that every $N \geq 2$ can be written as the sum of positive integers $a$ and $b$ where $\Omega(ab) \leq 40$. The result is obtained through the direct application of an explicit lower bound Selberg sieve along with some computation…

Inspired by a classical result of R\'enyi, we prove that every even integer $N\geq 4$ can be written as the sum of a prime and a number with at most 395 prime factors. We also show, under assumption of the generalised Riemann hypothesis,…

We prove that if A is a subset of the primes, and the lower density of A in the primes is larger than 1/2, then every sufficiently large even integer can be written as the sum of eight primes from A. The constant 1/2 in this statement is…

In the present work we demonstrate that the so called Goldbach conjecture from 1742, All positive even numbers greater than two can be expressed as a sum of two primes, due to Leonhard Euler, is a true statement. This result is partially…

The Strong Goldbach conjecture dates back to 1742. It states that every even integer greater than four can be written as the sum of two prime numbers. Since then, no one has been able to prove the conjecture. The only best known result so…

We proved that any even number not less than 6 can be expressed as the sum of two old primes, $2n=p_i+p_j$

Let c > 0.55. Every large n can be written in the form p +ab, where p is prime, a and b are significantly smaller than x^1/2 and ab is less than n^c. This strengthens a result of Heath-Brown, which has the requirement c>3/4. We introduce…

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…

We prove that every sufficiently large integer $n$ can be written as the sum of a prime and an integer that is not square-free. In addition, we expect this result holds for every $n > 24$ and prove two results to support this claim. First,…

For every even integer N, denote by D_{1,2}(N) the number of representations of N as a sum of a prime and an integer having at most two prime factors. In this paper, we give a new lower bound for D_{1,2}(N).

It is the purpose of this thesis to enunciate and prove a collection of explicit results in the theory of prime numbers. First, the problem of primes in short intervals is considered. We prove that there is a prime between consecutive cubes…

We show that there are infinitely many primes $p$ such that not only does $p + 2$ have at most two prime factors, but $p + 6$ also has a bounded number of prime divisors. This refines the well known result of Chen.
