    No full text
    We give a brief account about the exceptional sets in short intervals for the Goldbach and the Hardy-Littlewood problems. In particular, we present two recent results about Montgomery-Vaughan's type estimates for such exceptional sets

    Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis holds, we prove some conditional estimates on the exceptional set in short intervals for the Hardy-Littlewood problem

    Let J(N,H)J(N,H) be the Selberg integral and E(x,T)E(x,T) the error term in Kaczorowski-Perelli's weighted form of the classical explicit formula. We prove that the estimate J(N,H)=o(H2N)J(N,H)=o(H^2N) is connected with an appropriate estimate of N2NE(x,T)2dx\int_N^{2N}\vert E(x,T)\vert ^2 dx, uniformly for HH and TT in some ranges. Moreover, assuming a suitable bound for the quantity N2NE(x,T)2dx\int_N^{2N}\vert E(x,T)\vert ^2 dx, we also obtain, for all sufficiently large NN and H(logN)11/2H\gg(\log N)^{11/2}, that every interval [N,N+H][N,N+H] contains H\gg H Goldbach numbers

    We prove an asymptotic formula (that refines old results by Walfisz and Mirsky) for the number of representations of sufficiently large integer as a sum of a prime and a kk-free number, k2k\geq 2

    In Section 1 we introduce the Goldbach Conjecture and give a brief account on the main contribution to this subject. In the other sections we sketch the proofs of some results on the existence of Goldbach numbers in short intervals and on the exceptional set for Goldbach's problem

    Let EE be the set of integers which are not a sum of two primes, E(X)=E[1,X]E(X)=E\cap[1,X] and E(X,H)=E[X,X+H]E(X,H)=E\cap[X,X+H], where H=o(X)H=o(X). A well known result of Montgomery-Vaughan proves that there exists an absolute positive constant δ\delta such that E(X)X1δ\vert E(X)\vert \ll X^{1-\delta}. Here we prove that there exists an absolute positive constant δ\delta such that, for HX7/24+7δH\geq X^{7/24+7\delta}, E(X,H)H1δ/600\vert E(X,H)\vert \ll H^{1-\delta/600}, improving a result by Peneva

    Some refinements of error terms estimates for certain additive problems with primes

    We study, under the assumption of the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, the individual and mean-square error terms for the number of integers representable as a sum of k3k\geq 3 primes. We improve, using a smoothing technique, Friedlander-Goldston's recent results on this topic. Moreover, we remark that the argument we use can also be applied to other similar problems

    On the exceptional set of Hardy-Littlewood's numbers in short intervals

    In 1923 Hardy and Littlewood conjectured that every sufficiently large integer is either a kk-power of an integer or a sum of a prime and a kk-power of an integer, for k=2,3k=2,3. We will call HL-numbers the integers that are a sum of a prime and a kk-power of an integer. Let now kgeq2kgeq 2 and denote by EkE_k the set of integers which are neither an HL-number nor a power of an integer. Here we prove that there exists an absolute positive constant deltadelta such that for HgeqX7/12(1rac1k)+deltaHgeq X^{7/12(1-rac{1}{k})+delta} [ ert E_k(X,H)ert ll H^{1-delta/(5K)}, ] where K=2k2K=2^{k-2}, thus improving previous results by Perelli-Pintz, Mikawa, Perelli-Zaccagnini and Zaccagnini
