Johnston" ], "comment": "15 pages", "categories": [ "math.NT" ], "abstract": "Every integer greater than two can be expressed as the sum of a prime and a square-free number. Expanding on recent work, we provide explicit and asymptotic results when divisibility conditions are imposed on the square-free number. For example, we show for odd $k\\leq 10^5$ and even $k\\leq 2\\cdot 10^5$ that any even integer $n\\geq 40$ can be expressed as the sum of a prime and a squarefree number coprime to $k$. We also discuss applications to other Goldbach-like problems.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2023-11-24T14:15:38.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11P32", "11Y99" ], "keywords": [ "square-free number", "divisibility conditions", "squarefree number coprime", "asymptotic results", "integer greater" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 15, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
