Let $\lambda$ be the Liouville function. Assuming the Generalised Riemann Hypothesis for Dirichlet $L$-functions (GRH), we show that for every sufficiently large even integer $N$ there are $a,b \geq 1$ such that $$ a+b = N \text{ and }…
The Legendre conjecture has resisted analysis over a century, even under assumption of the Riemann Hypothesis. We present, a significant improvement on previous results by greatly reducing the assumption to a more modest statement called…
Let $A$ be a subset of primes up to $x$. If we assume $A$ is well-distributed (in the Siegel-Walfisz sense) in any arithmetic progressions to moduli $q\leqslant(\log x)^c$ for any $c>0$, then the sumset $A+A$ has density 1/2 in the natural…
In this short note we present a class of conjectures on partitions of integers as summations of primes, which are extensions of Goldbach conjecture.
We state a general purpose algorithm for quickly finding primes in evenly divided sub-intervals. Legendre's conjecture claims that for every positive integer $n$, there exists a prime between $n^2$ and $(n+1)^2$. Oppermann's conjecture…
In this paper, we use the former of the authors developed theory of \emph{circles of partition} to investigate possibilities to prove the binary Goldbach and Lemoine conjectures. We state the \emph{squeeze principle} and its consequences…
Multiplicative arithmetic functions satisfying the parallelogram functional equation on prime numbers are investigated. It is derived that the unique solution is a quadratic function by the Goldbach's conjecture.
We prove that if $x$ is large enough, namely $x\ge x_0$, then there exists a prime between $x(1- \Delta^{-1})$ and $x$, where $\Delta$ is an effective constant computed in terms of $x_0$. This improves some previous results of Ramar\'e and…
A strong version of Andrica's conjecture can be formulated as follows: Except for $p_n\in\{3,7,13,23,31,113\}$, that is $n\in\{2,4,6,9,11,30\}$, one has$\sqrt{p_{n+1}}-\sqrt{p_n} < \frac{1}{2}.$ While a proof is far out of reach I shall…
It is a classic result of Selberg in the 1950's that $\theta_2 = 2/3$, where $\theta_2$ is the level of distribution of the divisor function in arithmetic progressions (defined more precisely below). Selberg applies this estimate, together…
Let $n\in\mathbb{Z}^+$. In [8] we ask the question whether any sequence of $n$ consecutive integers greater than $n^2$ and smaller than $(n+1)^2$ contains at least one prime number, and we show that this is actually the case for every…
This paper gives an explicit version of Selberg's 1943 mean-value estimate for the prime number theorem in intervals under the Riemann hypothesis. Two applications are given: for primes in short intervals, and Goldbach numbers (sums of two…
We present some new ideas on important problems related to primes. The topics of our discussion are: simple formulae for primes, twin primes, Sophie Germain primes, prime tuples less than or equal to a predefined number, and their…
We studied two probabilistic models of the distribution of primes in the natural number [1].The paper considers the third probabilistic model of the distribution of primes in the natural number. The author proved that the results obtained…
We prove that every odd number $N$ greater than 1 can be expressed as the sum of at most five primes, improving the result of Ramar\'e that every even natural number can be expressed as the sum of at most six primes. We follow the circle…
Two conjectures are presented. The first, Conjecture 1, is that the pushforward of a geometric distribution on the integers under $n$ Collatz iterates, modulo $2^p$, is usefully close to uniform distribution on the integers modulo $2^p$, if…
Let $p_1=2, p_2=3, p_3=5, \ldots$ be the consecutive prime numbers, $S_n$ the numerical semigroup generated by the primes not less than $p_n$ and $u_n$ the largest irredundant generator of $S_n$. We will show, that $\bullet$ $u_n\sim3p_n$.…
We propose a generalization of the Elliott-Halberstam conjecture concerning the distribution of prime pairs in arithmetic progressions. This conjecture, which we call the Generalized Elliott-Halberstam Conjecture for Shifted Convolutions…
Let $p$ be a fixed prime number, and $N$ be a large integer. The 'Inverse Conjecture for the Gowers norm' states that if the "$d$-th Gowers norm" of a function $f:\F_p^N \to \F_p$ is non-negligible, that is larger than a constant…
We create a simple test for distinguishing between sets of primes and random numbers using just the sum-of-digits function. We find that the sum-of-the-digits of prime numbers does not have an equal probability of being odd or even. The…
