Gaps of size 2, 4, and (conditionally) 6 between successive odd composite numbers occur infinitely often [PDF]
The infinite sequence of gaps (first differences) between successive odd composite numbers contains only the numbers 2, 4, and 6. We prove that, for any natural number k, the sequence of gaps contains infinitely many k-tuplets of consecutive gaps all ...

An Analytic Approximation to the Density of Twin Primes
The highly irregular and rough fluctuations of the twin primes below or equal to a positive integer x are considered in this study. The occurrence of a twin prime on an interval [0,x] is assumed to be random.

On the irregularity of the distribution of the sums of pairs of odd primes
Let P2(n) denote the number of ways of writing n as a sum of two odd primes. We support a conjecture of Hardy and Littlewood concerning P2(n) by showing that it holds in a certain average sense. Thereby showing the irregularity of P2(n).

Average prime-pair counting formula [PDF]
Taking $r>0$, let $\pi_{2r}(x)$ denote the number of prime pairs $(p, p+2r)$ with $p\le x$. The prime-pair conjecture of Hardy and Littlewood (1923) asserts that $\pi_{2r}(x)\sim 2C_{2r} {\rm li}_2(x)$ with an explicit constant $C_{2r}>0$. There seems to

Properties of the function f(x)=x/π(x)
We obtain the asymptotic estimations for ∑k=2nf(k) and ∑k=2n1/f(k), where f(k)=k/π(k), k≥2. We study the expression 2f(x+y)−f(x)−f(y) for integers x,y≥2 and as an application we make several remarks in connection with the conjecture of Hardy and ...

THE LOGARITHMICALLY AVERAGED CHOWLA AND ELLIOTT CONJECTURES FOR TWO-POINT CORRELATIONS
Let $\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}$ denote the Liouville function. The Chowla conjecture, in the two-point correlation case, asserts that

The jumping champion conjecture [PDF]
An integer $d$ is called a jumping champion for a given $x$ if $d$ is the most common gap between consecutive primes up to $x$. Occasionally several gaps are equally common. Hence, there can be more than one jumping champion for the same $x$.

Smooth solutions to the abc equation: the xyz Conjecture [PDF]
This paper studies integer solutions to the ABC equation A+B+C=0 in which none of A, B, C has a large prime factor. Set H(A,B, C)= max(|A|,|B|,|C|) and set the smoothness S(A, B, C) to be the largest prime factor of ABC.
