Hardy–Littlewood's binary Goldbach asymptotic conjecture
Hardy–Littlewood's binary Goldbach asymptotic conjecture
Let denote the number of representations of as a sum of two primes, and let be the singular series
For even integers , let denote the corresponding von Mangoldt-weighted representation count. Hardy–Littlewood's conjecture. As through even integers,
Equivalently,
This is the quantitative form of the binary Goldbach conjecture: it predicts not only that every sufficiently large even integer has a representation as the sum of two primes, but also the precise asymptotic number of such representations. The conjecture remains unresolved.
