| Sep 29, 2015 at 17:07 | comment | added | GH from MO | Questions like "can proof X be modified to prove statement Y" are not too fortunate in general. Just ask: "Is statement Y true?" Then, as a side remark, you can mention that perhaps proof X can be modified to prove statement Y. | |
| Sep 29, 2015 at 16:24 | comment | added | Anthony Quas | Seems very unlikely. The G-T theorem essentially relies on lower bounds for prime numbers in an interval. To know that a number is 1-central, you need upper bounds as well - you need to know that $n\pm i$ is not prime for $0<i<k$ (an upper bound on the characteristic function of primes) and the $n\pm k$ is prime (a lower bound). | |
