The set of quotients of primes is dense in the positive real numbers and the set of all quotients of Gaussian primes is also dense in the complex plane. Sittinger has proved that the set of quotients of primes in an imaginary quadratic ring is dense in the complex plane and the set of quotients of primes in a real quadratic number ring is dense in R. An interesting open question is introduced by Sittinger: Is the set of quotients of Hurwitz primes dense in the quaternions? In this paper, we answer the question and prove that the set of all quotients of Hurwitz primes is dense in the quaternions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-04-16T22:34:40.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "complex plane", "hurwitz primes dense", "real quadratic number", "quotient sets", "quaternions" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
