1. Overview
Number theory, "the queen of mathematics" studies the structures and properties defined on integers and primes ( Euclid [
15], Hadamard [
18], Hardy, Wright [
20], Landau [
26], Tchebychev [
44] ). Numerous problems have been raised and conjectures made, the statements of which are often simple but very difficult to prove. These main components include :
● Elementary arithmetic .
˽ Operations on integers, determination and properties of primes.
( Basic operations, congruence, gcd, lcm, ………..).
Decomposition of integers into products or sums of primes
( Fundamental theorem of arithmetic, decomposition of large numbers, cryptography and Goldbach's conjecture, see Filhoa, Jaimea, de Oliveira Gouveaa, Keller Füchter, [
16] ).
● Analytical number theory .
Distribution of primes : Prime Number Theorem, the Riemann hypothesis, (see Hadamard [
18], De la Vallée-Poussin [
45], Littlewood [
29] and Erdos [
14], ,.....).
Gaps between consecutive primes ( Bombieri,Davenport [
3], Cramer [
9], Baker,Harmann,Iwaniec, Pintz [
4],[
5],[
24], Granville [
17], Maynard [
31], Tao [
43],
Shanks [
40], Tchebychev [
44] and Zhang [
49] ).

2. Definitions Notations and Background
The integers h, m,M, n, N, k, K ,p, q, Q, r,..…used in this article are always positive. (2.1)
The symbol " │ " means : such as or knowing that. . (2.2)
Let be the infinite set of positive primes (called simply primes) (2.3)
( = 2 ; = 3 ; = 5 ; = 7 ; = 11 ; = 13 ; ......... )
For any non-zero integer K = { p ∈ : p ≤ 2K } (2.4)
Writing the large numbers calculated in Appendix 14 is simplified by defining the following constants:
M = ; R = 4. ; G = ; S = ; T = 10 1000 (2.5)
# = is the primorial of . (2.6)
ln(x) denotes the neperian logarithm of the real x > 0 (2.7)
LambertW(k , x) is the Lambert multi-branched function (2.8)
Let () be the sequence of primes defined by
∀ n ∈ ℕ + 3 = Sup ( p ∈ : p ≤ 2n - 3 ) (2.9)
For any odd prime q , let () be the sequence of primes defined by
∀ n ∈ ℕ n ≥ = Sup ( p ∈ : p ≤ 2n - q ) (2.10)
Any sequence denoted by () = () verifying (2.11) is called a Goldbach sequence.
∀ n ∈ ℕ + 2 , ∈ and + = 2n (2.11)
and are also known as "Goldbach partitions or Goldbach decomponents".
Iwaniec,Pintz [
24] have shown that for a sufficiently large integer
n there is always a prime between
n − and
n . Baker and Harman [
4],[
5] concluded that there is a prime in the interval [
n ; n +
o (
Thus this results provides an increase of the gap between two consecutive primes
and
of the form
> 0 ∈ │ ∀ k ∈ ℕ k ≥ - < (2.12)
The results obtained on the Cramer-Granville-Maier-Nicely conjecture [
1],[
3],[
9],[
17],[
30],[
32] imply the following majorization.
For any real c > 2 and for any integer k ≥ 500
- ≤ 0.7 () (with probability one) (2.13)
and
- ≤ 20.ln() (on average) (2.14)
The following abbreviations have been adopted :
● Lagrange-Lemoine-Levy conjecture (3L) conjecture (2.15)
● Bachet-Bézout-Goldbach conjecture (BBG) conjecture (2.16)
● (Extreme) Goldbach decomponents (E).G.D. (2.17)
3. Introduction
Chen [
7], Hardy, Littlewood [
21], Hegfollt, Platt [
22], Ramaré, Saouter [
35], Tao [
43],
Tchebychev [
44] and Vinogradov [
46] have taken important steps and obtained promising results on the Goldbach conjecture (Any integer
n ≥ 2 is the mean arithmetic of two primes). Indeed, Helfgott, Platt [
22] proved the ternary Goldbach conjecture in 2013.
Silva, Herzog, Pardi [
41] held the record for calculating the terms of Goldbach sequences after determining pairs of primes (
) verifying
∀ n ∈ ℕ │ 4 ≤ 2n ≤ 4.1018 + = 2n (3.1)
Goldbach's conjecture has also been verified for all even integers 2n satisfying
≤ 2n ≤ + : k = 3, 4, 5, 6,........,20
and
≤ 2n ≤ + : k = 20, 21, 22, 23, 24,.......,30
by Deshouillers, te Riele, Saouter [
11].
In previous research work there is no explicit construction of recurrent Goldbach sequences.
In this article, for any integer n greater than two the E.G.D. and are computed iteratively using a simple and efficient "localised" algorithm.
Using Maxima and Maple scientific computing software on a personal computer Silva's record is broken and many E.G.D. are calculated up to the neighbourhood of
2
n = 10
500 , 10
1000, 10
5000 and G.D. around
(see Sainty [
37]
"In Researchgate.net, Internet Archive, and OEIS, E.G.D. files are supplied : E.G.D. File S around 2n = for S = 1, 2, 3,............., 10000").
The binary Goldbach conjecture can be proved globally by strong recurrence on all G.D. using () sequences of primes in the same way via Goldbach(-) conjecture (Any even integer greater than one is the difference of two primes) demonstrated in Teorem 4.
● Remark.
1. Chen conjecture_: For any integer K ≥ 1 there are infinitely many pairs of primes with a difference equal to 2K.
2. De Polignac conjecture : Same as Chen, but with consecutive pairs of primes.
3.
What we know : April 2013, Yitang Zhang [
49] demonstrates that the smallest even integer 2K verifying the conjecture is greater than 70 million.
In 2014 James Maynard [
31] then Terence Tao [
43] lowered this limit to 246.
We validate Chen’s weak conjecture by verifying directly in the primes tables that all even gaps from 2 to 246 are possible (see Appendix 16 ).
In addition, the (3L) conjectures [
10],[
23],[
25],[
28],[
47] and its generalization called
(BBG) conjecture are validated.
Using case disjunction reasoning we construct two recurrent E.G.D. sequences of primes () and () according to the sequence ( ) by the following process
Firstly,
= 2 and = 2 (3.2)
For any integer n greater than two
●
Either
( 2n - ) is a prime
then and are defined directly in terms of .
● Either
( 2n - ) is a composite number
then and are determined from the previous terms of the sequence ().
( This process can be reversed by first determining the increasing sequence of primes less than Inf ( 2n - ∈ : k ∈ ℕ ) , which saves a lot of computing time when programming ).
4. Theorem (Chen’s Weak or Goldbach(-) Conjecture)
∀ K ∈ ℕ* p , q ∈ │ p - q = 2K (4.1)
If K ≥ 2 3 ≤ q ≤ 2K and 3 + 2K ≤ p ≤ 4K
Practical method on some examples:
First of all (5 - 3 = 2), then we begin the process at (7 - 3 = 4); we will select the smallest primes for which the difference is precisely 6 (11 - 5 = 6), then 8 (11 - 3 = 8), then 10
(13 - 3 = 10),......... , then 2K (demonstration established by strong recurrence, by the asurd and feedback). All pairs of Goldbach(-) partitions obtained by this method for K between 2 and 123 are listed in Appendix 16 to validate it using Tao results.
Proof. An other proof can also be established by strong recurrence on the integer K ≥ 2. Let ( K ) be the following property
" ∀ K ∈ ℕ* p, q ∈ │ p - q = 2K 3 ≤ q ≤ 2K and 2K + 3 ≤ p ≤ 4K " (4.2)
► ( 2 ) is true : 7 - 3 = 4 q = 3 ≤ 4 and p = 7 ≤ 4 x 2 = 8
► Let’s show
∀ M ∈ ℕ │ 2 ≤ M ≤ K then ( M ) ( K + 1 )
We reason through the absurd
Let p , q ∈ │ p ≥ q
∀ P , Q ∈ │ P ≥ Q h, m ∈ ℕ │
P = p + 2h and Q = q + 2m
we assume that
P - Q = p + 2h - q - 2m ≠ 2( K + 1 ) (4.3)
Therefore
p - q ≠ 2( K + 1 - h + m ) (4.4)
You can always choose h ≥ m and h - m ≤ K + 1 .
The set {K + 1 - h + m ; 2h and 2m are any gaps between primes} contains all even integers between 2 and 2K.
However the strong recurrence hypothesis asserts that
∀ M ∈ ℕ │ M ≤ K p, q ∈ │ p - q = 2M (4.5)
By choosing : M = K + 1 - h + m
t (4.4).
So
h, m ∈ ℕ │ P - Q = p + 2h - q - 2m = 2( K + 1 ) (4.6)
knowing
p, p + 2h, q, q + 2m ∈ h ≥ m and h - m ≤ K + 1
Thus validating the heredity of property (K ).
The property (K ) is therefore true. As a result Goldbach(-) conjecture is validated.
5. Corollary
Let ) and ) be two sequences of primes determined by
= Inf ( p ∈ : p - 2K ∈ ) and _= Inf ( p ∈ : 2K + p ∈ ) = - 2K (5.1)
They are defined for any integer K ∈ * (5.2)
and satisfy
lim = + (5.3)

(5.4)

(5.5)
For any integer K large enough

(5.6)
Proof.
(5.1) ; (5.2) : According to the previous theorem, the sequences (
) and

are defined by strong recurrence (finite descent).
(5.3) : ≥ 2K lim = +(5.4) : By construction, these sequences thus verify : - = 2K
(5.5) : The property can be verified directly term-to-term by examining the sequence proposed above.
(5.6) : This property is verified up to 2K = 246 by calculations on the previous list.
We prove this result by recurrence
First of all, we order the Goldbach(-) decomponents at a fixed prime q , so as to obtain the estimate (5.6) more easily.
Let be the (r + 1)th prime :
We examine the sequences of primes ( ( K ) satisfying :
(K ) = 2K + 3
((K ) ; 2K ) → (5;2) ; (7 4) ; (11;8) ; (13;10) ; (17;14) ; (19;16) ; (23;20) ; (29;26) ; (29;28);..
(K ) = 2K + 5
((K ) ; 2K ) → (7;2) ; (11;6) ; (13;8) ; (17;12) ; (19;14) ; (23;18) ; (29;24) ; (31;26) ; (37;32)................................
(K ) = 2K + 7
((K ) ; 2K ) → (11;4) ; (13;6) ; (17;10) ; (19;12) ; (23;16) ; (29;22) ; (31;24) ; (37;30)...........
(K) = 2K + 11
(T11(K ) ; 2K ) → (13;2) ; (17;6) ; (19;8) ; (23;12) ; (29;18) ; (31;20) ; (37;26) ; (41;30) ; (43;34).........................
(T13(K ) ; 2K ) → (17;4) ; (19;6) ; (23;10) ;(29;16) ; (31;18) ; (37;24) ; (41;28) ; (43;30 ; (47;34)..........................
......................................
(K ) = 2K + ( K ∈ : (K ) and are primes ) (see Appendix 16 )
For any integer K satisfying > the property holds for ( K ).
Therefore it is generally validated for all K > , since we obtain all possible cases of
Chen's weak conjecture starting with (K), then (K ), then (K ) .... for ≤ .
(can be proved by strong recurrence using the same method as in Theorem 4 by "finite descent").
Let a = and ( r ) be the following property
"For any integer M │ 2M < there exists at least a prime q < │ 2 M + q ∈
▶ () is true (see Appendix 16).
▶ Let’s show : ( r ) ( r + 1)
≤ + (5.6)
It is assumed that M │
(K) - ≠ 2M knowing 2M < ∀ (R), ∈ h, s ∈ ℕ │ (K) = (R) + 2h and = + 2s (5.7)
then
(R) - ≠ 2( M + s - h ) (5.8)
which is impossible according to the hypothesis of strong recurrence since
2( M + s - h ) is less than Sup and that all primes (R) , satisfy the recurrence hypothesis.
We deduce that : ( r ) ( r + 1)
Thus the property (5.5) is true.
6. Lemma (Goldbach’s Fundamental Lemma)
Let q be an odd prime
For any integer n ≥ there exists an integer s │
2n - ∈ (6.1)
Let ( ) be the sequence of primes defined by
∀ n ∈ ℕ n ≥ = Inf ( 2n - ∈ : k ∈ ℕ ) (6.2)
All G.D. are contains in the set {(2n - ; ) : n ∈ ℕ + 3}
For any integer n ≥ ≤ (6.3)
≤ o (6.4)
Proof. The proofs of propositions (6.1), (6.2) and (6.3) are established following the same principle of strong recurrence as in Theorem 4 and Corollary 5 by "return, absurd and finite descent"
(6.1) : For any integer n > 3 and for any odd primes r, q │ 3 ≤ r < q,
there exists an integer │
2n - = 2n - 2 - = 2(n - ) - or
2( n + 1) - = 2( n + 1 - ) - then by recurrence and the absurd the property is validated.
(Proof to develop).
Remark. A better estimate of the following form can be obtained by the same method with probability one or on average using the results of Bombieri [
3], Cramer [
9], Granville [
17] ,
Nicely [
32] and Maier [
30] :
n ∈ ℕ : n ≥ ;
For any real c > 2 < 1.7 (with probability one) (6.5)
and
< K’.(n) (on average) ( 6.6)
7. Principle of Proof
To determine the E.G.D. three sequences of primes ( ( ), ( are defined and they verify the following properties
lim = + (7.1)
∀ n ∈ ℕ + 2 is defined as a function of = Sup ( p ∈ Ƥ : p ≤ 2n - 3 ) (7.2)
( ) is an increasing sequence of primes that contains all of them except = 2 (7.3)
lim (7.4)
() is a complementary sequence to ( ) of negligible primes with respect to 2n (7.5)
For any integer n
● If ( 2n - ) is a prime
then and are defined by
= and = 2n - (7.6)
● Otherwise, if ( 2n - ) is a composite number
we search for two previous terms of the sequence (), ) and satisfying the following conditions
, , [ + 2k ] ∈ (7.7)
+ = 2(n - k )
which is always possible (see Theorem 4 and "Goldbach’s fundamental Lemma 6")
So by setting
= and = + 2k (7.8)
two new primes and satisfying (4.10) are generated │
+ = 2n (7.9)
This process is then repeated incrementing n by one unit (n ← n + 1).
● Remark. Using the same method as in Theorem 4, we can the following equivalent property by strong recurrence : For any integer n greater than 48
(n) : " There exists an integer K such that 2K + (7.10)
To this end, .
▶ (49) is true.
▶ The heredity of the property (n) : (n) (n + 1)
can be proved by the absurd and returning to the previous terms by noting that
For any integer r │ r ≤ n , there is at least one integer │
= 2 + then
2K + = 2( K + ) + = 2P + (7.11)
By posing : P = K + and ≤ n
Now, according to the recurrence hypothesis on (n) there exists an integer P │
2P + ∈ (7.12)
then there exists an integer K │
2K + ∈ (7.13)
In summary, the property (n) is hereditary and, as a result, verifiable.
We apply the same type of reasoning using Theorem 4 to the general case with the sequence (), showing :
For any integer n > 2 there exists an integer K │
2K + ∈
8. Theorem (Goldbach Conjecture)
(i) There exists at least a recurrent sequence ( ) = ( of primes satisfying the following conditions.
For any integer n ≥ ,
and + = 2n (8.1)
(Any integer n ≥ is the mean arithmetic of two primes)
(ii) An algorithm can be used to explicitly compute any term and (8.2)
Proof.
▄ GLOBAL STRONG RECURRENCE:
The proof can be made using the following strong recurrence principle.
Let (n) be the property defined for any integer n ≥ 2 by
(n) : " For any integer p satisfying 2 ≤ p ≤ n there exists two primes and such their sum is equal to 2p ".
( ∀ p ∈ ℕ │ 2 ≤ p ≤ n ,
and + = 2p )
Let's show by strong recurrence that (n) is true for any integer n ≥ 2
▶ (2) is true : it suffices to choose = = 2 .
▶ Let's show that the property (n) is hereditary : (n) (n + 1)
Assume property (n) is true.
● If ( 2(n + 1) - ) is a prime
then and are defined by
= and = 2(n+1) - (8.3)
● Otherwise, if ( 2(n+1) - ) is a composite number
there exists an integer k to obtain two terms ) and satisfying the following conditions
, and + 2k ∈ Ƥ (8.4)
+ = 2( n +1- k )
we use the previous terms of the sequence ( ).
For any integer q │ 1 ≤ q ≤ n - 3 we have
3 ≤ ≤ n .
Then there exists an integer k 1 ≤ k ≤ n - 3 │
= + 2k ∈ Ƥ (8.5)
following the Bertrand principle and Theorem 4 since all primes smaller than are in the set { : k ≤ n }
( If there were no such primes, we would have a contradiction with the Theorem 4 or with Goldbach’s fundamental Lemma 6 ) . In fact, in an equivalent way (see the previous remark) we can copy the proof of Teorem 4 by performing a similar strong recurrence ”finite descent feedback and absurd” directly on the set { : k ≤ n } │
= + 2k ∈ Ƥ (8.6)
The smallest integer k │ ∈ Ƥ is denoted by .
So by setting
= + 2 and = ∈ Ƥ (8.7)
(These two terms are primes)
In the previous steps two primes and whose sum is equal to 2(n - ) were determined.
+ = 2(n -) (8.8)
By adding the term to each member of the equality (8.6) it follows
+ 2 + = 2(n - ) + 2 (8.9)
[ + 2] + = 2n (8.10)
+ = 2n (8.11)
Two new primes and satisfying ( + = 2(n + 1) ) are generated.
It follows that (n + 1) is true. Then the property (n) is hereditary :
(n) (n + 1).
Therefore for any integer n ≥ 2 the property (n) is true.
It follows
n ∈ ℕ + 2 there are two primes and and such their sum is 2n : + = 2n
▄ ALGORITHM:
For any integer n
● If ( 2n - ) is a prime
then and are defined by
= and = 2n - (8.12)
● Otherwise, if ( 2n - ) is a composite number
we use the previous terms of the sequence ( ).
For any integer q │ 1 ≤ q ≤ n - 3 we have
3 ≤ ≤ n .
Then there exists an integer k 1 ≤ k ≤ n - 3 │
= + 2k ∈ Ƥ (8.13)
following Theorem 4 since all primes smaller than are in the set { : k ≤ n }
( If there were no such primes, we would have a contradiction with the Theorem 4 or with Goldbach’s fundamental Lemma 6 ) . In fact, in an equivalent way (see the previous remark) we can copy the proof of Teorem 4 by performing a similar strong recurrence ‘’finite descent return and absurd” directly on the set { : k ≤ n } │
= + 2k ∈ Ƥ (8.14)
The smallest integer k │ ∈ Ƥ is denoted by .
So
= + 2 and = ∈ Ƥ (8.15)
(These two terms are primes)
In the previous steps two primes and whose sum is equal to 2(n - ) were determined.
+ = 2(n -) (8.16)
By adding the term to each member of the equality (8.16) it follows
+ 2 + = 2(n - ) + 2 (8.17)
[ + 2] + = 2n (8.18)
+ = 2n (8.19)
Finally, for any integer n ≥ 3 this algorithm determines two sequences of primes ( )
and ( ) verifying Goldbach's conjecture.
9. Lemma
The sequence () verifies the following majorization
For any integer n ≥ 65
≤ (2 (9.1)
and
= o ((2) (9.2)
Proof. According to the programm 12.2 and Appendix 14 the majorization (9.1) is verified
for any integer n │ 65 ≤ n ≤ 2000 .
For any integer n > 2000 the proof is established by recurrence. For this purpose let (n ) be the following property
(n ) : " ≤ " . (9.3)
▶ (2000) is true according to program 13.2 and the table in appendix 14.
▶ For any integer n ≥ 2000 let’s show that (n ) is hereditary :
(n) .(n + 1)
Assume that (n ) is true : then
● If ( 2(n + 1) - ) is a prime
then and are defined by
= and = 2(n + 1) - (9.4)
According to the results in [
4],[
5],[
24] (see Lemma 9 ) there is a constant
K > 0 such that
2(n + 1) - K . < < 2(n + 1)
= 2(n + 1) - < K
≤ K
● Otherwise, if ( 2(n + 1) - ) is a composite number
p ∈ │ = + 2p (9.5)
According to [
4],[
5],[
24]
= 2p += 2p + 2(n + 1 - p) - 2(n + 1) - (9.6)
Via " Goldbach's fundamental Lemma 6 " it follows that
< K (9.7)
(n + 1) is true then (n ) is hereditary.
So for any integer n ≥ 2000 the property (n ) is true.
Finally ≤

Remark. A more precise estimate can be obtained using the Cipolla or Axler frames [

10. Propositions
A) Link between Goldbach conjecture and the fundamental theorem of arithmetic.
A log-exp correspondence is established by linking the sum and product of primes via Goldbach's conjecture and the fundamental theorem of arithmetic, since if G.D. of 2n are p' and q', and if 2n decomposes into factors P " and Q " │
( p’, q’ ∈ Ƥ │ p’ q’ and P " Q " ) ; then,
2n = P ".Q " = p’ + q’ and p’ - q’ = 2K
ln(P ".Q ") = ln(P ") + ln(Q ")
= ln(p’ + q’) = ln(p’(1 + q’ / p’))
≈ ln(p’) + q’ / p’
By choosing p’ = next or prevprime(P ") (P " = p’ +/- a) we obtain a q' localization of the form
q’ ≈ [ p’.ln(Q ")] ≈ [ p’.ln(2n / P ")] ≈ [ p’.ln(2n / p’)]
.then
2n ≈ p’( 1 + ln(2n / p’))
2n ≈ p’( 1 + ln(2n / P ")) ≈ p’( 1 + ln(2n / (p’ +/- a))
2n ≈ p’( 1 + ln(2n / (p’(1 +/- a/p’)))
2n ≈ p’( 1 + ln((2n / p’).(1 / (1 +/- a / p’))))
2n ≈ p’( 1 + ln(2n/p’) + ln(1/(1 +/- a/p’)))
2n ≈ p’( 1 + ln(2n/p’)) -/+ a
You can solve equations like these using Maple,
solve( 2n +/- a = x.( 1 + ln(2n / x)), x)
to locate p' and proceed by successive next or prevprime to determine two G.D. of 2n,
(programming possible in Algorithm 14). This procedure appears to generalise Pocklington's theorem, and we observe that the G.D. and their number G(E) are related to the number of prime factors in the decomposition of 2n .
Examples :
● evalf(solve([90 = x*(1 + ln(96/x)), x < 96], x)); {x = 64.12418697} ; p’ = 67 q’ = 29
● evalf(solve([1000 = x*(1 + ln(1100/x)), x < 1100], x)); {x = 665.6361412}
prevprime(665); 661
isprime(1100 - 661); true ; p’ = 661 q’ = 439
● evalf(solve([9700 = x*(1 + ln(10000/x)), x < 10000], x)); {x = 7652.697929}
prevprime(7652); 7649
isprime(10000 - 7649); true ; p’ = 7649 q’ = 4351
● evalf(solve([99950 = x*(1 + ln(100000/x)), x < 100000], x)); {x = 96854.43333}
a := prevprime(96799); a := 96797 # Obtenu au bout de 3 ou 4 prevprime( )
isprime(100000 - a); true; p’ = 96799 q’ = 3201
Solutions are :
= Re(- (2n +/- a)/LambertW(-1,-(2n +/- a) / (2n.e)))
and
= Re(- (2n +/- a)/LambertW(-(2n +/- a) / (2n.e)))
Remarks. For any composite number n greater than three,
● gcd(n, p’)= gcd(n ,2n - p’) = gcd( n ,q’) = gcd(n ,K)= gcd(n,p’.q’) = gcd(n,n² - K²) = 1
● The smallest E.G.D. of 2n is less than the square of its greatest prime factor.
● For any non-zero integer R, the smallest of G.D.’s of R.# is greater than .
B) Method of locating G.D. products ( Difference in squares: N² - K² or decentered dichotomy by geometric mean ( see code RSA , [
37]
).
Locally (in the vicinity of 2n ), there exists a sub-sequence ( ,, ) of G.D. of 2s such that the product sequence =. = s² - k² is almost increasing (the variations of the geometric mean almost follow those of the arithmetic mean; indeed, if
and ≥then
. -. = (-). +( -) ≥ 0 ).
Si on choisit : , on minimise et on controle mieux l’écart -
Thus, it is possible to determine Goldbach decomponents of 2n by the following algorithm, choosing a neighborhood of 2n of amplitude c.ln²(n) in agreement with the estimates made on the G(E) distribution function associated with the Goldbach comet.
Another possible method.
By off-center dichotomy using geometric means, similar to that used to crack RSA codes (see Sainty [
37]
).

C) Euclidean divisions of 2n by its presumed Goldbach decomponents
To determine two Goldbach decomponents of 2n , the following parameters can be used :
If p’ + q’ = 2n , ( p’ , q’ ∈ Ƥ │ p’ q’ ) then we perform the Euclidean division of p' by q' under the following conditions :
p’ = m.q’ + r 0 < r < q’ rq’ = 1 rm = 1
We deduce that q’ = (2n - r) / (m+1) or 2n = (m+1).q’ + r ( dual view point).
which leads to the algorithm.
(To develop)
Implementation:
We perform the Euclidean division of 2n by primes in ascending order.
3,5,7,11,.....
20 = 3 x 6 + 2 = (3 x 5 + 2) + 3 = 17 + 3
22 = 3 x 7 + 1 = (3 x 6 + 1) + 3 = 19 + 3
24 = 3 x 8 = 5 x 4 + 4 = (5 x 3 + 4) + 5 = 19 + 5
26 = 3 x 8 + 2 = (3 x 7 + 2) + 3 = 23 + 3
28 = 3 x 9 + 1 = (3 x 8 + 1) + 3 = 5 x 5 + 3 = (5 x 4 + 3) + 5 = 23 + 5
30 = 3 x 10 = 5 x 6 = 7 x 4 + 2 = (7 x 3 + 2) + 7 = 23 + 7
32 = 3 x 10 + 2 = (3 x 9 + 2) + 3 = 29 + 3
34 = 3 x 10 + 4 = (3 x 9 + 4) + 3 = 31 + 3
36 = 3 x 12 = 5 x 7 + 1 = (5 x 6 + 1) + 5 = 31 + 5
38 = 3 x 12 + 2 = (3 x 11 + 2) + 3 = 35 + 3 = 5 x 7 + 3 = (5 x 6 + 3) + 5 = 33 + 5
= 7 x 5 + 3 = (7 x 4 + 3) + 7 = 31 + 7
................................................................................................
500 = 3 x 166 + 2 = (3 x 165 + 2) + 3 = 497 + 3 = 5 x 100 = 7 x 71 + 3 = (7 x 70 + 3) + 7 = 493 + 7 = 11 x 45 + 5 = (11 x 44 + 5) + 11 = 489 + 11 = 13 x 38 + 6 = (13 x 37 + 6) + 13 = 487 + 13
For large integers, we will begin Euclidean division with a prime divisor of the order of nextprime(trunc(c.ln(n)).
Remark. This point of view allows us to give another proof of the Binary Goldbach Conjecture equivalent but more explicit by identifying uniqueness, coincidence and consistency using euclidean division of 2n by ∈ Ƥ > n : 2n = + and
2n by ∈ Ƥ which gives
2n = m.+by Euclidean division, hence 2n = ( (m-1).+) + ;
, are increasing sequences, and = (m-1). + are decreasing sequences. By uniqueness of Euclidean division and since and , ,
[2n / q] = m = 1 + [p / q] , ( is the result of the euclidean division of 2n by ), we deduce that there exists k0 and r0 such that :
= and =.
11. Theorem
For any integer n 3 it is easy to check
( ) is a positive increasing sequence of primes (11.1)
{ : n IN + 3 } = (11.2)
lim = +oo (11.3)
( ) and () are sequences of primes and the set { : k ≤ n } (11.4)
contains all primes less than ln( n )
n ≤ (11.5)
3n (11.6)
lim = +oo (11.7)
Proof.
(11.1) : For any integer n ≥ 2 .Therefore, ≤ . So the sequence () is increasing.
(11.2) : Any prime except = 2 is odd, hence the result.
(11.3) : lim = lim = +oo
(11.4) : By definition = or there exits an integer k ≤ n - 2 │ = .
So the terms of the sequence ( ) are primes.
(11.5) : According to Lemma 9, for any integer n ≥ 65
< therefore
< < n
and
= 2n - > 2n - n > n
For any integer n │ 3 ≤ n ≤ 65 verification is carried out according to the computer program in paragraph 13.2 and the table in appendix 14.
We can also see that by construction ≥ because if we assume the opposite then is not the largest prime number verifying
( + ) = n .
So
≥ n
According to (11.5) n = 2n - ≤ 2n - n ≤ n (11.6)
≤ 2n - ≤ 2n - = (11.7)
By (11.5) for any integer n ≥ 2 : n
lim = +oo .
12. Lemma
We dissociate the following cases mod 6 for any even integer 2n n ≥ 3: p + q = 2n p, q ∈ Ƥ
| 1. |
If 2n = 6m
|
then |
(p ; q) = (6r + 5 ; 6(m - r - 1) + 1) or (6r+1 ; 6(m - 1 - r) + 5) |
| 2. |
If 2n = 6m + 2 |
then |
(p ; q) = ( 6r + 1 ; 6(m - r) + 1) |
| 3. |
If 2n = 6m + 4 |
then |
(p ; q) = (6r + 5 ; 6(m- 1 - r) + 5) |

13. Properties
For any integer k ≥ 2 there are infinitely many integers n │ = (13.1)
~ 2n (n +oo) (13.2)
For any integer n ≥ 5000
and lim ( ) = 0 (13.3)
The smallest integer n │2n - is obtained for n = 49 and = (79 ; 19) (13.4)
(
This type of terms increases in the Goldbach sequence (
)
as n increases in the sense of the
Schnirelmann density and there are an infinite number of them; their proportion per interval can be computed using the results given in [
39] ).
The sequence ( ) is "extremal" in the sense that for any integer n (13.5)
and are the largest and smallest possible primes │ + = 2n.
The Cramer-Granville-Maier-Nicely conjecture [
9],[
17],[
30],[
32]
is verified with probability one. It leads to the following majorization
For any integer p ≥ 500
≤ 0.7 [ (with probability one) (13.6)
The proof is similar to that of Lemma 9 and is validated by the studying functions of the type
f : x a .g (x) + b ( a,b > 0 ; c > 2) with
g : x 0.7 [l and h : x 0.7 by using Maple software.
A better estimate can be obtained via [
29],[
31],[
30] .
According to Bombieri [
3]
and using the same method as in the proof of Lemma 9,
we obtain the following estimate of
> 0 = O ( )) (on average) (13.7)

18. Perspectives and Generalizations
18.1 Other Goldbach sequences () independent of may be studied using the increasing sequences of primes ( defined by
For any integer n
= Sup ( p f (n) ) (18.1.1)
f is a function defined on the interval J = [3 ; +[ and satisfying the following conditions
● f is strictly increasing on the interval J
● f (3) = 3 and = +
●
For example, one of the following functions defined on J can be selected.
■ f : x a x + 3 - 3a (a : 0 < a■
g : x[ 49 ] ( [x] is the integer part of the real x )
■ h : x + 3
18.2 Using this method it would be interesting to study the Schnirelmann density [
39] of primes 3 , 5 , 7, 11 ,........ ... in the sequence (
) on variable intervals and the Caesaro sums of
E.D.G.’s with a view to more efficient programming for their calculation.
18.3 It is possible to exceed the values shown in the table of 2
n =
(many E.G.D have been calculated for values of 2
n in the order of
,
(and G.D. in the order of
Sainty [
37] ) by perfecting this algorithm, exploiting the fact that one of Goldbach's decomponents can be chosen equal to 4
p + 3, (G.D. are primes of the form
6m + 1 or 6m + 5 and can be expressed more precisely using primes of the form 30m + r :
r ∈ [

29] (see Table mod 30, Lemma 11), by using De Pocklington Theorem [

37], Cipolla-Axler-Dusart type functions and improvment of primes frames [

18.4 Any Goldbach decomponent of order 2n = can be determined more quickly by replacing the instruction b:=2 by b:=trunc(c.b + d) and b := nextprime(b) with
b := nextprime(b + k(b, G)), where k(b, G) is a constant of around 150 for G = 10¹⁰⁰⁰ and is chosen randomly using the rand procedure or increases very slowly as a function of b and G. An increasing sequence of primes, , can also be determined in stages by replacing the initial value b:=2 by b:=trunc(b - .(n) - ) and by setting c := trunc( a.(b) ),
1 ≤
d, s ≤ 2 and
b :=
b +
c for each stage, followed by
b :=
nextprime(
b) until the next stage, ( see Sainty [

▄ To validate the (3L) conjecture we study the following sequences of primes ( W ), ( ( defined by

▄ Using the same type of reasoning a generalization, the (BBG) conjecture of the following form can be validated
● Let K and Q be two odd integers prime to each other :
For any integer n │ 2n(K + Q ) there exist two primes and verifying
K . + Q. = 2n (18.5.5)
● Let K and Q be two integers of different parity prime to each other :
For any integer n │ 2n (K + Q ) there are two primes and verifying
K + Q . = 2n + 1 (18.5.6)

19. Conclusion
19.1 A recurrent and explicit Goldbach sequence ( ) = (; ) verifying
n ∈ , ∈ += 2n
has been developed using an simple and efficient "localised" algorithm. The Goldbach conjecture has been proved by strong recurrence (absurd and finite descent), (un arbre analogue à celui des diviseurs d’un entier est envisageable permettant de visualiser les analogies entre le théorème fondamental de l’arithmétique et la conjecture de Goldbach). A relation (Proposition 10) is established between the fundamental theorem of arithmetic and the Goldbach conjecture (sum and product of primes), allowing fast computation of G.D. of very large even integers via a «localisation» of G.D.’s using a generalized Pocklington-type algorithm and further proof of Goldbach's binary conjecture via Euclidean divisions of 2n by primes and consistent increasing and decreasing sequences.
19.2 The records of Silva [
41] and Deshouillers, te Riele, Saouter [
11] are beaten on a personal computer. Hundreds E.G.D.
and
are obtained for values around 2
n =

n =

n =

n =
for a computation time of less than three hours (see Sainty [
37] ).
19.3 For a given integer n ≥ 49 the evaluation of the terms and does not require the computing of all previous terms and │ 1 k < n - 1 . we will only consider those that verify :
≤ 5. and 2n - 5.(2n) ≤ ≤ 2n (on average) (19.3.1)
This property allows any E.G.D and to be calculated quite quickly, the upper limit being defined by the scientific software and the computer's ability to determine the largest prime preceding 2n - 2 (next or prevprime(2n - 2) function).
19.4 Therefore the (BBG), the (3L) and the binary Goldbach(- / +) conjectures "Any even integer greater than three is the sum and difference of two primes" are true.

Comments :
The majority of mathematicians believe Goldbachʹs conjecture to be true, mainly,, based on
statistical reasoning centred on the distribution of primes. The larger the number, the more
ways there are to decompose it into a sum of two or three other primes. A crude heuristic
approach to this argument (for the Binary Goldbach Conjecture) is to consider the prime number theorem, this states that a randomly chosen integer m has a probability of being prime
equal to 1/ln(m).
. Therefore, if n is a large even integer and m is a number between 3 and n, the probability
that both m and (n - m) are primes is approximately 1/(ln(n).ln(n - m)). Although this heuristic
argument is imperfect for several reasons, such as the lack of consideration of correlations
between the probabilities of m and (n – m) being primes, it nevertheless indicates that the total
number of ways of writing a large even integer n as the sum of two odd primes is
approximately proportional to n / ln2(n).
