comment Karolyi’s theorem for finite groups and its extensions
Regarding Károlyi's result [1], I heard that Imre Ruzsa found a proof without the Feit-Thompson theorem. Of course I might be wrong, ask either Károlyi or Ruzsa if you are interested.

comment Does Zhang’s theorem generalize to $3$ or more primes in an interval of fixed length?
@Noam: Sorry, I had a typo, $\nu-1$ should be $\sqrt{\nu}-1$. For $\nu=1$ the result is the original breakthrough of Goldston-Pintz-Yildirim (very small gaps between primes).

@Johan: There is a typo in your arXiv preprint in the display before (8): $\tau_3(d)$ and $\rho_2(d)$ should be squared as in my response below. Thanks for the footnote.

comment A question on Haar measure on local field.
Yes, but this is not what you originally asked. Your question involved $F^{\times 2}$ as a subset of $F^\times$ (not just as an abstract group), hence the correction factor you need (in your original equation) will also depend on the index $(F^\times:F^{\times 2})$. This, on the other hand, depends on whether $2$ is a unit in the maximal compact subring of $F$ or not. Read my response.

@paul: Yes, the discrepancy is a uniform constant. And my response was also slightly in error, so let me update it.

I answered your clarified question below. For any $m>e^e$ there is $m_0>m$ such that $f(m,n)<0$ for any $n\in(m,m_0)$.

The method I outlined gives C-S precisely (note the factor 2 on the left).

This is nice, but I think that secretly you reproduced the proof of Cauchy-Schwarz. At least one proof goes like this: $2\sum x_iy_i\leq\sum (x_i^2k^{-2}+y_i^2k^2)$. Minimmizing the right hand side in $k$ yields Cauchy-Schwarz.

I agree. I think Zhang understood several years ago that this estimate was the one to focus on, and later he did not bother or forgot to explain it so well.
