We prove the existence of primitive sets (sets of integers in which no element divides another) in which the gap between any two consecutive terms is substantially smaller than the best known upper bound for the gaps in the sequence of…

Although the prime numbers are deterministic, they can be viewed, by some measures, as pseudo-random numbers. In this article, we numerically study the pair statistics of the primes using statistical-mechanical methods, especially the…

A sieve is constructed for ordinary twin primes of the form 6m+/-1 that are characterized by their twin rank m. It has no parity problem. Non-rank numbers are identified and counted using odd primes p>=5. Twin- and non-ranks make up the set…

We introduce a sieve for counting twin primes up to a given range. Our method depends on a parameter ${\lambda}_x$ and the estimation of the number of twin primes obtained as a result, is called a fundamental structure of the distribution…

The quantitative distribution of twin primes remains a central open problem in number theory. This paper develops a heuristic model grounded in the principles of sieve theory, with the goal of constructing an analytical approximation for…

Recently we have introduced a novel characterisation of the distribution of twin primes that consists of three essential elements. These are: that the twins are most naturally viewed as a subsequence of the primes themselves, that the…

For $n \geq 3,$ let $ p_n $ denote the $n^{\rm th}$ prime number. Let $[ \; ]$ denote the floor or greatest integer function. For a positive integer $m,$ let $\pi_2(m)$ denote the number of twin primes not exceeding $m.$ The twin prime…

Classical primal-dual affine programming takes place over finite dimensional real vector spaces. This results in beautiful duality theory, connecting the optimal solu- tions of the primal maximization problem and the dual minimization…

This paper develops a Mellin-Laplace analytic framework for the fixed-shift prime correlation r_h(n) = Lambda(n) Lambda(n+h) for h not equal to 0. This sequence has no multiplicative structure, no Euler product, and no singularity at s = 1.…

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…

We introduce a novel sieve for prime numbers based on detecting topological obstructions in a M\"obius-transformed rational metric space. Unlike traditional sieves which rely on divisibility, our method identifies primes as those numbers…

We take the pre-sieved set to be all natural numbers $N=\{1,2,3,\dots\}$ with a sieve system:single sieve,double sieve,.... With single sieve, i.e. , remove out the multiple of a prime, we derive all the primes. With double sieve, i.e. ,…

We argue that formal certification of AI alignment over open-ended or unbounded input domains is impossible under standard assumptions in computational complexity and learning theory, and characterise what remains achievable. Two…

Let $m$ be a natural number, and let $\mathcal{Q}$ be a set containing at least $\exp(C m)$ primes. We show that one can find infinitely many strings of $m$ consecutive primes each of which has some $q\in\mathcal{Q}$ as a primitive root,…

This research presents the results of a study on the existence and frequency distribution of the shell primes defined herein as prime numbers that result from the calculation of the "half-shell" of an p-dimensional entity of the form…

Sieves are constructed for twin primes in class I, which are of the form 2m+/-D, D>=3 odd. They are characterized by their twin-D-I rank m. They have no parity problem. Non-rank numbers are identified and counted using odd primes p>=5.…

Distributed computational substrates rely on two elementary operations: bundling, the act of populating a shared physical medium with independently retrievable components, and binding, the act of composing components into outputs whose…

A sieve is constructed for twin primes at distance 4, which are of the form 3(2m+1)+/-2, and are characterized by their twin-4 rank 2m+1. It has no parity problem. Non-ranks are identified as all other odd numbers and counted using odd…

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…

Natural numbers can be divided in two non-overlapping infinite sets, primes and composites, with composites factorizing into primes. Despite their apparent simplicity, the elucidation of the architecture of natural numbers with primes as…
