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.

Prime gap counts in short intervals

Since it is conjectured that the twin prime count at $n\sim2 C_2\ \frac{n}{\log^2n},$ where $C_2 = \prod_{p\ge 3} \frac{p(p-2)}{(p-1)^2} = 0.66016 18158 \dots,$ it follows that the twin prime count fo …

Unfamiliar prime-generating polynomials related to Heegner numbers

I just stumbled on a set of prime-generating polynomials of the form $$9 n^2-3 H n+H (H+1)/4$$ (where $H$ is a Heegner number $>11$), which generate the same number of distinct primes as their more fa …

Asymptotic density of k-almost primes

As not necessarily proven results were asked for, I have found the following quite accurate: $$N_k(x):=\ \mid\{n\leq x : \Omega(n)=k\}\mid \ \sim \Re\bigg(\frac{2^{1-k}\alpha e^{1+e}x\log(1+e+\log(2^ …

Tight prime bounds

This is a cross-post of this question on MSE. I would not usually do this, but have decided to in this case since it has had no responses having been posted as a bounty question. I did not delete the …

Goldbach for certain classes of $n$

Asked on MSE without response here. $\#$ of ways even $n$ can be represented by prime additions is hereafter denoted $G(n)$. The Wiki article on the Goldbach conjecture states that In 1975, Hugh Mont …
