Additive Functions on Shifted Primes
Best possible bounds are obtained for the concentration function of an additive arithmetic function on sequences of shifted primes. A real-valued function / defined on the positive integers is additive if it satisfies f(rs) = f(r) + f(s) whenever r and s are coprime. Such functions are determined by their values on the prime-powers. For additive arithmetic function /, let Q denote the frequency...
متن کاملTen consecutive primes in arithmetic progression
In 1967 the first set of 6 consecutive primes in arithmetic progression was found. In 1995 the first set of 7 consecutive primes in arithmetic progression was found. Between November, 1997 and March, 1998, we succeeded in finding sets of 8, 9 and 10 consecutive primes in arithmetic progression. This was made possible because of the increase in computer capability and availability, and the abili...
متن کاملSeven consecutive primes in arithmetic progression
It is conjectured that there exist arbitrarily long sequences of consecutive primes in arithmetic progression. In 1967, the first such sequence of 6 consecutive primes in arithmetic progression was found. Searching for 7 consecutive primes in arithmetic progression is difficult because it is necessary that a prescribed set of at least 1254 numbers between the first and last prime all be composi...
متن کاملDivisors of Shifted Primes
Abstract. We bound from below the number of shifted primes p+s ≤ x that have a divisor in a given interval (y, z]. Kevin Ford has obtained upper bounds of the expected order of magnitude on this quantity as well as lower bounds in a special case of the parameters y and z. We supply here the corresponding lower bounds in a broad range of the parameters y and z. As expected, these bounds depend h...
متن کاملPrimes in arithmetic progressions
[1] Euler’s proof uses only simple properties of ζ(s), and only of ζ(s) as a function of a real, rather than complex, variable. Given the status of complex number and complex analysis in Euler’s time, this is not surprising. It is slightly more surprising that Dirichlet’s original argument also was a real-variable argument, since by that time, a hundred years later, complex analysis was well-es...
