Typo.

Added definition of Guassian prime.

| Mar 18, 2012 at 1:10 | comment | added | user22202 | Hi Joseph! If you fix your closed cycle (the shape, not the location), it would correspond to a fixed pattern of prime and composite Gaussian integers along that fixed path. Perhaps heuristics might give the conjectural asymptotics for the number of such cycles with that shape in a disk of radius $M$ centered at the origin. | |

| Mar 16, 2012 at 23:43 | comment | added | BS. | +1 for "step on a plane". Will you meet gaussian primes ? | |
| Mar 16, 2012 at 22:54 | comment | added | François Brunault | Nice spirals ! Regarding Q1, it will be probably hard to prove this is always the case, given that it's unknown whether there are infinitely many Gaussian primes of the form $n+i$ with $n \in \mathbf{Z}$. So starting at $N+i$ and moving $+x$, we cannot exclude the possibility of hitting no prime. | |
