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…

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…

The binary Goldbach conjecture asserts that every even integer greater than $4$ is the sum of two primes. In a preceding paper we have proved that there exists a positive integer $K_\alpha$ such that every even integer $x > p_k^2$ can be…

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…

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.

Goldbach`s Conjecture, "every even number greater than 2 can be expressed as the sum of two primes" is renamed Goldbach`s Rule for it can not be otherwise. The conjecture is proven by showing that the existence of prime pairs adding to any…

We consider the Linnik--Goldbach problem of writing all large even integers as the sum of two primes and a fixed number of powers of 2. We show that, under the generalised Riemann hypothesis, one can use 6 powers of two. In addition, we…

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…

The Goldbach conjecture states that every even integer greater than 2 can be expressed as the sum of two prime numbers. This conjecture was first proposed by German mathematician Christian Goldbach in 1742 and, despite being obviously true,…

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…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis we prove that the interval $[N, N + H]$ contains an integer which is a sum of a prime and two squares of primes provided that $H \ge C (\log N)^{4}$, where $C > 0$ is an effective constant.

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…

The Goldbach conjecture that, every even integer is the sum of two primes, has been open since 1742. This paper details a road map to a proof of Goldbachs conjecture based on a function that estimates the number of Goldbach pairs. It is…

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…

In this article, we prove an "equivalence" between two higher even moments of primes in short intervals under Riemann Hypothesis. We also provide numerical evidence in support of these asymptotic formulas.

Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, this article discusses a new elementary argument that seems to prove that the maximal prime gap of a finite sequence of primes p_1, p_2, ..., p_n <= x, satisfies max {p_(n+1) - p_n : p_n <= x} <=…

We answer the question positively. In fact, we believe to have proved that every even integer $2N\geq3\times10^{6}$ is the sum of two odd distinct primes. Numerical calculations extend this result for $2N$ in the range $8-3\times10^{6}$.…

95 years ago Hoheisel proved the existence of primes in the sub-linear interval \[ \left[x, x+x^{1-{1\over 33000}}\right] \qquad \hbox{for $x$ sufficiently large}. \] This was improved by Heilbronn, proving existence of primes in the…
