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.

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.

On the unimodal character of the frequency function of the largest prime factor

Jean-Marie De Koninck, Jason Pierre Sweeney (2001)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

The main objective of this paper is to analyze the unimodal character of the frequency function of the largest prime factor. To do that, let P(n) stand for the largest prime factor of n. Then define f(x,p): = #{n ≤ x | P(n) = p}. If f(x,p) is considered as a function of p, for 2 ≤ p ≤ x, the primes in the interval [2,x] belong to three intervals I₁(x) = [2,v(x)], I₂(x) = ]v(x),w(x)[ and I₃(x) = [w(x),x], with v(x) < w(x), such that f(x,p) increases for p ∈ I₁(x), reaches its maximum...
