Do primes of the form $4k+1$ ever lead the greatest prime factor race?
Analogous to Chebyshev's race between primes, I examined the race between primes in the greatest prime factors, GPF, of natural numbers. Similar to the regular prime race, in the GPF race, the ...

is there a link with the probabilistic model for prime numbers?
Let $x \in \mathbb{R}_+$ and $k \in \mathbb{N}^{*}$.
Let :
$$\mathcal{A}(x)=\#\{(a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_k) \in \mathbb{P}^k \mid (a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_k \text{ verifying some properties}) \, , a_k \...

The set of numbers $a+b$ such that $ma^2+nb^2$ is prime
Conjecture:
If $m,n$ are coprime it exist a minimal natural number $N_{mn}$ such
that:
$\{a+b>N_{mn}\mid a,b\in\mathbb N^+\wedge ma^2+nb^2\in\mathbb P_{>2}\} = \{ k > N_{mn} \mid \...

Conjecture about primes and Fibonacci numbers
I posted this conjecture on math.stackexchange, but I received no answer proving or disproving it: if $ m > 4 $ is a positive integer not divisible by $ 2 $ or $ 3 $, it's ever possible to find a ...

Counting twin primes with a sieve-like algorithm
The sequence A002822, denoted as $S$, represents all the twin primes except $\{3, 5\}$. Other than that exception, $k$ and $k+2$ are twin primes iff $(k+1)/6\in S$. Let $S(N)$ be the subset of $S$ ...

How soon can we represent a number as the sum of two primes?
Posting in MO since it was unanswered in MSE.
Goldbach's conjecture says that every even number can be represented as the sum of two primes. But how soon can we find such a representation. Taking $20 =...

A conjectured upper bound for the mean value of prime divisors inside prime gaps
In 1969 C.A. Grimm stated this interesting conjecture: the prime gap $\,G_n=\{x\in N:p_n\lt x\lt p_{n+1}\}\,$ contains at least $\,\#G_n=(p_{n+1}-p_n)-1=g_n-1\,$ distinct prime divisors, that is if $\,...

Arithmetic progression and average of two prime numbers
Let $A=(a_n : n \in \mathbb{N})$ be the sequence given by:
$$
\ a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d,\quad a_1,\ d,\ n \in \mathbb N,\quad d\gt a_1,\quad \gcd(a_1,\ d)=1.
$$
For all terms of $A$ greater than $\ \...

Conjecture about Euler quotients related to non-Wieferich numbers $W(n)=\frac{2^n+1}{3}$
For odd natural $n$ define the Euler quotient:
$$ a(n)=\frac{(2^{\phi(n)}-1) \bmod n^2}{n}=\frac{2^{\phi(n)}-1}{n} \bmod n$$
$a(n)=0$ is $n$ being Wieferich number (not necessarily prime).
For odd $n$,...

Is the Conjecture of Representing Integers as Differences of Semiprimes and Primes Extendable to Products of Distinct Primes?
Conjecture:
Let $k$ and $l$ be fixed distinct positive integers ($k≠l$). Then, for every positive integer $n$, there exist prime numbers $p_1,p_2,…,p_k∈\mathbb{P}$ and $q_1,q_2,…,q_l∈\mathbb{P}$ such ...

Inequalities $\pi(x^a+y^b)^\alpha\leq \pi(x^c)^\beta+\pi(y^d)^\gamma$ involving the prime-counting function, where the constants are very close to $1$
Let $\pi(x)$ be the prime-counting function, I'm curious about if a suitable variant of the second Hardy–Littlewood conjecture (this corresponding Wikipedia)
$$\pi(x^a+y^b)^\alpha\leq \pi(x^c)^\beta+\...
