On a conjecture of Yiming Long
We study the average of the Fourier coefficients of a holomorphic cusp form for the full modular group at primes of the form [g(n)].
We consider some applications of the singular integral equation of the second kind of Fox. Some new solutions to Fox’s integral equation are discussed in relation to number theory.
Linnik proved, assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, that for any , the interval contains a number which is the sum of two primes, provided that is sufficiently large. This has subsequently been improved to the same assertion being valid for the smaller gap , the added new ingredient being Selberg’s estimate for the mean-square of primes in short intervals. Here we give another proof of this sharper result which avoids the use of Selberg’s estimate and is therefore more in the spirit of Linnik’s...
