A specific Goldbach partition of any given even number greater than 6 can be found definitely.

By developing the method of Wooley on the quadratic Waring-Goldbach problem, we prove that all sufficiently large even integers can be expressed as a sum of four squares of primes and 46 powers of 2.

Let $N$ denote a sufficiently large even integer and $x$ denote a sufficiently large integer, we define $D_{1,2}(N)$ as the number of primes $p$ that such that $N - p$ has at most 2 prime factors. In this paper, we show that $D_{1,2}(N)…

For two relatively prime square-free positive integers $a$ and $b$, we study integers of the form $a p+b P_{2}$ and give a new lower bound for the number of such representations, where $a p$ and $b P_{2}$ are both square-free, $p$ denote a…

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…

In this paper, we proved a theorem that every large enough odd number can be represented as the sum of three almost equal Piatetski-Shapiro primes.

In this note we use recent developments in sieve theory to highlight the interplay between Goldbach and de Polignac numbers. Assuming that the primes have level of distribution greater than $1/2$, we show that at least one of two nice…

In this work we use the number classification in families of the form 6n+1, and 6n+5 with n integer (Such families contain all odd prime numbers greater than 3 and other compound numbers related with primes). We will use this kind of…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ denote the set of all primes, and let $\underline\delta(P)$ denote the relative lower density of a subset $P$ in $\mathcal{P}$. Suppose that $P_1, P_2, P_3, P_4$ are four subsets of primes with…

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,…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ denote the set of all primes. $P_{1},P_{2},P_{3}$ are three subsets of $\mathcal{P}$. Let $\underline{\delta}(P_{i})$ $(i=1,2,3)$ denote the lower density of $P_{i}$ in $\mathcal{P}$, respectively. It is proved that if…

A conjecture of Cai-Zhang-Shen for figurate primes says that every integer $k>1$ is the sum of two figurate primes. In this paper we give an equivalent proposition to the conjecture. By considering extreme value problems with constraints…

We present a novel approach to the Twin Prime Conjecture, basing on the $6x \pm 1$ representation of primes. By defining so-called twin prime generators $x \in \N$, for which both $6x - 1$ and $6x + 1$ are prime, we reformulate the…

In the present paper we prove that every sufficiently large odd integer $N$ can be represented in the form \begin{equation*} N=p_1+p_2+p_3\,, \end{equation*} where $p_1,p_2,p_3$ are primes, such that $p_1=x^2 + y^2 +1$, $p_2=[n^c]$.

It is well known that the following Collatz Conjecture is one of the unsolved problems in mathematics. Collatz Conjecture: For any positive integer $n>1$, the following recursive algorithm will convergent to 1 by a finite number of steps.…

A set of integers greater than 1 is primitive if no element divides another. Erd\H{o}s proved in 1935 that the sum of $1/(n \log n)$ for $n$ running over a primitive set $A$ is universally bounded over all choices for $A$. In 1988 he asked…

Let $\Sigma_{2n}$ be the set of all partitions of the even integers from the interval $(4,2n], n>2,$ into two odd prime parts. We select a partition from the set $\Sigma_{2n}$ uniformly at random. Let $2G_n$ be the number partitioned by…

A calculation was performed to verify Proth-Gilbraith's conjecture for all prime numbers up to 0$^{14}$. The previous calculation was performed by Andrew Odlyzko in 1993 up to 0$^{13}$. This involves calculating the differences between…

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 sandglass conjecture, posed by Simonyi, states that if a pair $(A, B)$ of families of subsets of $[n]$ is recovering then $|A| |B| \leq 2^n$. We improve the best known upper bound to $|A| |B| \leq 2.2543^n$. To do this we overcome a…
