2019-09-02, Cody Luo ([email protected]), a programmer who graduated from the University of Science and Technology of China, the webmaster of 2293.ml, gave a proof of Goldbach's Conjecture at github.com/a-boy/playmath (Sagemath Jupyter document), using the method of "distributing distinct prime factors", found and proved two concise inequalities.

Try to Prove Goldbach's Conjecture

Cody Luo([email protected]) 2019-08-27 2019-09-01 2019-09-02 2021-04-01

Abstract: Goldbach Conjecture Inequality 1: gold(n) < prime_pi(n)+sigma(n,0) gold(n): the min non-negative integer makes that both n-g and n+g are primes prime_pi(n): the count of primes in 1..n sigma(n,0): the count of n.divisors()

gold(n) < prime_pi(n), while n>344 gold(n) < prime_pi(n)*4395/3449751 ≈ prime_pi(n)*0.0013, while n>57989356

Goldbach Conjecture Inequality 2: gold(n) < prime_pi(prime_pi(n)+n)

Keywords: Goldbach Conjecture; Prime Gap Inequality; prime_pi(n); sigma(n,0)

Improved Goldbach's Conjecture : Except n=344; n=22,46; n=28,for any other positive integer n>1,there exists g, 0=<g<prime_pi(n), make that both n-g and n+g are primes. As n increase from 2 to a very big integer, the peaks of gold(n) appear more and more slowly. n>344, history_peak(gold(n))/prime_pi(n) rapidly decreasing from 75/68 (n=344) to 300/685 (n=5131),1794/189274 (n=2591107), 4395/3449751(n=57989356), ..., to a decimal approaching 0. limit(sup gold(n)/prime_pi(n),n,+oo) == 0

Define g:=gold(n) as the min non-negative integer makes that both n-g and n+g are primes. so that 2*n=(n-g)+(n+g)=p+q.

ImprovedGoldbachConjecture.java: a Java GUI to search gold(n) in range(n,n+256) by using BigInteger.isProbablePrime(64)

Two simple and clear proof to Goldbach's Conjecture by using Dispatch-Distinct-Prime-Factors method

Today(2019-09-01) morning, I discovered this beautiful inequality below, which shows Goldbach's Conjecture holds true for any integer n>2.

Goldbach Conjecture Inequality 1: gold(n) < prime_pi(n)+sigma(n,0) gold(n): the min non-negative integer makes that both n-g and n+g are primes prime_pi(n): the count of primes in 1..n sigma(n,0): the count of n.divisors()

gold(n) < prime_pi(n), while n>344 gold(n) < prime_pi(n)*4395/3449751 ≈ prime_pi(n)*0.0013, while n>57989356

2019-09-02 dawn, I found: Goldbach Conjecture Inequality 2: gold(n) < prime_pi(prime_pi(n)+n)

These two inequalities are so straightforward, which directly show you the proving process. Let's prove Inequality 2 firstly, start from

Prime Gap Inequality: p[i+1]-p[i]<=i , the i-th prime gap is less than or equal to i, i=1,2,3,... , here p[i]=nth_prime(i).

Prove: Because we can dispatch distinct prime factors for range(p[i],p[i+1]), the items of the range is [p[i],p[i]+1,p[i+2], ..., p[i+1]-1] Pigeonhole Principle shows p[i+1]-p[i]<=i, in other word, next_prime(n)-n <= prime_pi(n) so, p[i]<=i-1 + i-2+...+1+p[1] = 2+i*(i-1)/2

for example:


i p[i] 
9 23 [23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28]
    [23,  2,  5,  13, 3,  7]

Now, suppose n>6n>6, and nn is composite, factor(n)=p1α1p2α2...prαrfactor(n) = p_1^{{\alpha _1}}p_2^{{\alpha _2}}...p_r^{{\alpha _r}} , sigma(n,0)=(α1+1)(α2+1)...(αr+1)sigma(n,0)=({\alpha _1}+1)*({\alpha _2}+1)...*({\alpha _r}+1) the number of primes less than nn and coprime with nn is jj, suppose they are [q1,q2,...,qj][q_1,q_2,...,q_j] then we have prime_pi(n) = r+j ,

consider [(n1,n+1),(n2,n+2),...,(nx,n+x)][(n-1,n+1), (n-2,n+2),...,(n-x,n+x)] , for x=1,2,3,...g, until we get a prime pair (n+g,n-g) Now, we must can dispatch distinct prime factors for each item. Put it another way, to dispatch distinct prime factors for (n-x)*(n+x) . Prime Gap Inequality ensures these prime be not great than prime_pi(n)+n . Pigeonhole Principle guarantees len(s)<=prime_pi(prime_pi(n)+n), so

gold(n) < prime_pi(prime_pi(n)+n)

and, 2n= (n-g) + (n+g), Goldbach Conjecture is proved!□

@interact def prove2_goldbach_conjecture(n=input_box(default=344)): print('factor(n)=',factor(n)) p,q=n,n x=0 s,factor_list=[],[] while not (is_prime(p) and is_prime(q)): x+=1 p-=1 #p=n-x q+=1 #q=n+x s.append((p,q)) factor_list.append((factor(p),factor(q))) print(s) print(factor_list) print(n,p,q)

Now, I am trying to prove Inequality 1: gold(n) < prime_pi(n)+sigma(n,0)

step 1. construct a list sig_list,

p,q=n,n x=0 sig_list=[] prev=n while not is_prime(p): x+=1 q+=1 #q=n+x if is_prime(q): p=n-x if is_prime(p): sig_list.append(p) else: prev=previous_prime(prev) sig_list.append(prev) else: sig_list.append(q)

step 2. to drop sigma(n,0) items in sig_list, let target_list is the rest list. Which items to pick out? For every divisor which formed of pxαx...pyαyp_x^{{\alpha _x}}...p_y^{{\alpha _y}},choose one item which formed of kpxαx...pyαyk *p_x^{{\alpha _x}}...p_y^{{\alpha _y}} to drop, and keep k contains as more different prime factors as possible. This means always do not drop n-x(which has been marked as previous_prime(n,?) in sig_list) but drop n+x which contains most different prime factors.

step 3. Now, we must can dispatch distinct prime factors for each item of target_list, Pigeonhole Principle guarantees len(target_list)<=prime_pi(n). so we have,

`gold(n) < prime_pi(n)+sigma(n,0)`

Goldbach Conjecture is proved again!□

for example:


n=22
('factor(n)=', 2 * 11, 'sigma(n,0)=', 4)
('sig_list:', [19, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 17, 30, 13])
('target_list:', [(19, 2), (17, 2), (13, 2), (5^2, 3), (2 * 13, 4)])
assert tuple[0] of target_list has distinct primes!
(22, 13, 31)


n=46=2*23, sigma(46,0)=4

assert tuple[0] of target_list has distinct primes!

By observing Goldbach Triangle, we can conjecture that any even number n>=14 can be written to the sum of two primes in at least two forms. Since any integer n>=7 occurs twice or more in Complete Goldbach Triangle. If there are some sequence make that any natural number n>=3 can be written as the median of two items, the primes sequence seems to be the most ideal candidate. Because nth_prime(n) just can be defined as p[n]={min(x) satisfy x>p[n-1] && x%p[j]!=0 for j=1,2,...,n-1 }.
