Primes in tuples IV: Density of small gaps between consecutive primes

Daniel Alan Goldston, János Pintz, Cem Yalçın Yıldırım (2013)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

We prove that given any small but fixed η > 0, a positive proportion of all gaps between consecutive primes are smaller than η times the average gap. We show some unconditional and conditional quantitative results in this vein. In the results the dependence on η is given explicitly, providing a new quantitative way, in addition to that of the first paper in this series, of measuring the effect of the knowledge on the level of distribution of primes.

Gaps between primes in Beatty sequences

Roger C. Baker, Liangyi Zhao (2016)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

We study the gaps between primes in Beatty sequences following the methods in the recent breakthrough by Maynard (2015).

Prime divisors of linear recurrences and Artin's primitive root conjecture for number fields

Hans Roskam (2001)

Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

Let S be a linear integer recurrent sequence of order k ≥ 3 , and define P S as the set of primes that divide at least one term of S . We give a heuristic approach to the problem whether P S has a natural density, and prove that part of our heuristics is correct. Under the assumption of a generalization of Artin’s primitive root conjecture, we find that P S has positive lower density for “generic” sequences S . Some numerical examples are included.

A higher rank Selberg sieve and applications

Akshaa Vatwani (2018)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We develop an axiomatic formulation of the higher rank version of the classical Selberg sieve. This allows us to derive a simplified proof of the Zhang and Maynard-Tao result on bounded gaps between primes. We also apply the sieve to other subsequences of the primes and obtain bounded gaps in various settings.
