# On a Grand Hypothesis of Fundamental Number Theory

### On a Grand Hypothesis of Fundamental Number Theory

A Grand Hypothesis:

"The repetition and the growth of prime gaps between consecutive prime numbers are essential for the efficient generation of all composites (all positive integers that are not prime) in accordance with the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic and in accordance with the Prime Number Theorem." -- David Cole.

A Grand Claim:

"As a result of our grand hypothesis, we claim the Polignac Conjecture ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polignac%27s_conjecture ) is true!" -- David Cole.

Probability( Polignac Conjecture fails for some positive even integer, e. )

= Prob( $$p_{m} - e ≠ s_{m}$$ or $$r_{m}$$ over E*) = $$\prod_{m=1}^{\infty }\lambda_{m} = 0$$.

where $$p_{m}$$ and $$s_{m}$$ or $$r_{m}$$ are any appropriate consecutive prime numbers such that $$p_{m} > s_{m}$$ or $$p_{m} > r_{m}$$ and whose difference is not e, a positive even integer, and where E* is the exceptional set of such values of e for which Polignac's Conjecture fails.

Thus, we are very confident that Polignac's Conjecture is true!

Remarks: π() is the odd prime-counting function. And the positive even integers, $$e_{1}$$ and $$e_{2}$$, are appropriately chosen for our lambda function, $$\lambda_{m}$$.

### Re: On a Grand Hypothesis of Fundamental Number Theory

We shall review our proof of the Polignac Conjecture (or Polignac's Conjecture). Hopefully, our proof is clear, concise, and complete. And we are ready to make the necessary changes so that our proof is clear, concise, and complete.

### Re: On a Grand Hypothesis of Fundamental Number Theory

Hmm. Where do we start our computations for $$\prod_{m=1}^{\infty }\lambda_{m}$$?

Let's consider the case of $$e = 2$$ (the Twin Prime Conjecture), and we assume the conjecture fails after a very large prime number, $$s_{1}$$.

Let $$p_{1}$$ = NextPrime( $$s_{1}$$ ),

Let $$s_{2} = p_{1}$$ with $$p_{2}$$ = NextPrime( $$s_{2}$$ ),

Let $$s_{3} = p_{2}$$ with $$p_{3}$$ = NextPrime( $$s_{3}$$ ),

Let $$s_{4} = p_{3}$$ with $$p_{4}$$ = NextPrime( $$s_{4}$$ ),

...

as $$m \rightarrow \infty$$, $$s_{m} \rightarrow \infty$$ and $$p_{m} \rightarrow \infty$$.

And based on the above sequence, we compute $$\prod_{m=1}^{\infty }\lambda_{m}$$ for accordingly.

Dave,

Go Blue! PC (Polignac's Conjecture) is true! And Michigan Math (U-M Math Department) is great too!

"A journey on a path with heart, begins with the first step. Mistakes are common and expected, but friends are rare jewels along the way. Be thankful for all the good there is! Thank Lord GOD! Amen!" -- Dave.

Hmm. Suppose we want to know where to start our computations for $$\prod_{m=1}^{\infty }\lambda_{m}$$ when we have a large prime gap, e = G(X), where

G(X) $$\le log^{2} X$$ for large X where $$G(X) \rightarrow log^{2} X$$ as $$X \rightarrow \infty$$.

And therefore, we let $$s_{1} \approx Exp ( \sqrt{e} )$$ with $$p_{1}$$ = NextPrime( $$s_{1}$$ ), and so on.

Remarks: The notation, a = NextPrime(p), indicates the next prime, a, following prime, p.

Example: Suppose we let $$e = 13,128$$.

We compute $$s_{1} \approx Exp ( \sqrt{e} ) = 5.579 * 10^{49}$$. (Note: We suspect a prime gap of 13,128 will probably occur well below that approximate number.)

And therefore, we let $$s_{1} = 57,590,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,107$$ with $$p_{1} = 57,590,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,237$$ and so on.

And we compute $$\prod_{m=1}^{\infty }\lambda_{m}$$ accordingly.

Oops! Our note for the previous example is not strong enough.

Revised Note: We strongly expect a prime gap of 13,128 will occur well below that approximate number.

Revised Note: We strongly expect a prime gap of 13,128 will occur well below that approximate number based on the maximum prime gap, G(X)..

We can employ the Prime Number Theorem (PNT) to get a better estimate when a prime gap of 13,128 would first occur among consecutive primes.

Let log( x ) = $$\sqrt{c * 13,128}$$ where .7 < c < .8 (our very rough estimate). If c = .75, we have $$x = 1.24 * 10^{43}$$.

So we expect to see a prime gap of 13,128 between some consecutive primes after $$10^{40}$$(our rough estimate since our 'Prime Force' is weakening).

May the Prime Force be with you forever...

Hmm. So far, We cannot find the gap of 13,128 between consecutive primes when those primes are between 10^40 and 10^100. Therefore, our computations are tentatively wrong!

Moreover, we cannot find a gap of 10,000 or more between some consecutive primes when those primes are between $$10^{1500}$$ and $$10^{2000}$$.

Hmm. We shall search that range again and again...

A Comment:

If one finds a gap of more than 10,000 (very rare instances if they exist...) between two consecutive primes for primes between $$10^{1500}$$ and $$10^{2000}$$, then one is very lucky!!

And one ought to play the lottery to win millions of dollars!

We can solve $$212:4,000 \Leftrightarrow 689:13,000 \Leftrightarrow x:10^{12} ...$$ (Linear Extrapolation)

If $$\frac{689}{13,000} = \frac{x}{10^{12}}$$, then $$x = 5.3 * 10^{10}$$.

Therefore, if we are seeking a gap of more than a trillion between some consecutive primes, then we must search between $$10^{5.3 * 10^{10}}$$ and $$10^{5.3 * 10^{10} + 3}$$.

Wow! Math is fun! Math works! And math is powerful!

Dave.

P.S. We believe we have discovered an important and fundamental rule on large gaps between some consecutive primes!
