| Nov 5, 2021 at 22:16 | comment | added | Gerry Myerson | It has long been conjectured that every even integer is a difference of two primes, indeed, is infinitely often a difference of two primes, indeed, is infinitely often a difference of two consecutive primes. [exception to the last for the even integer zero] | |
| Nov 5, 2021 at 21:13 | comment | added | Anthony Quas | @GeoffRobinson: An important difference in spirit is that the "expected number" of pairs of primes summing to an even $n$ is finite, while the expected number of pairs of primes with difference $n$ is infinite. | |

| Nov 5, 2021 at 20:45 | comment | added | Geoff Robinson | This seems to be equivalent to asking whether every even positive integer is the difference of two primes, rather similar in spirit to Goldbach's conjecture. | |
