Refined Goldbach conjecture modulo 44

About 8 years old · traced to

Let pp and qq be primes. The mod-44 refined Goldbach conjecture. The following assertions hold:

  1. Every even n>4n>4 has a representation n=p+qn=p+q with p≡3(mod4)p\equiv3\pmod4.
  2. Every n≡0(mod4)n\equiv0\pmod4 except n=4n=4 has such a representation with p≡1(mod4)p\equiv1\pmod4 and q≡3(mod4)q\equiv3\pmod4.
  3. Every n≡2(mod4)n\equiv2\pmod4 except n=2n=2 has such a representation with p≡q≡3(mod4)p\equiv q\equiv3\pmod4.
  4. Every n≡2(mod4)n\equiv2\pmod4 except n=2,6,14,18,62n=2,6,14,18,62 has such a representation with p≡q≡1(mod4)p\equiv q\equiv1\pmod4.

These explicit refinements include claims implied by binary Goldbach and claims not implied by it. They are supported in the paper by numerical calculations and heuristic arguments, but remain unproved.
