Questions where prime numbers play a key-role, such as: questions on the distribution of prime numbers (twin primes, gaps between primes, Hardy–Littlewood conjectures, etc); questions on prime numbers with special properties (Wieferich prime, Wolstenholme prime, etc.). This tag is often used as a specialized tag in combination with the top-level tag nt.number-theory and (if applicable) analytic-number-theory.

Is there an Infinite increasing sequence of primes with bounded second or larger differences?
The opposite question is if for any infinite increasing sequence of primes and any $k$ the sequence of the $k$-th order differences of the elements of the sequence is unbounded.
But if the question i …

I don't know if this might interest you, but there is a nice formula due to Lifchitz which allows to compute the parity of $\pi(x)$ in $O(\sqrt{x}\log x)$: if $\Pi(x)$ represent the number of prime po …
