Classes of prime numbers

Cluster prime

In number theory, a cluster prime is a prime number p such that every even positive integer k ≤ p − 3 can be written as the difference between two prime numbers not exceeding p. For example, the number 23 is a cluster prime because 23 − 3 = 20, and every even integer from 2 to 20, inclusive, is the difference of at least one pair of prime numbers not exceeding 23: * 5 − 3 = 2 * 7 − 3 = 4 * 11 − 5 = 6 * 11 − 3 = 8 * 13 − 3 = 10 * 17 − 5 = 12 * 17 − 3 = 14 * 19 − 3 = 16 * 23 − 5 = 18 * 23 − 3 = 20 On the other hand, 149 is not a cluster prime because 140 < 146, and there is no way to write 140 as the difference of two primes that are less than or equal to 149. By convention, 2 is not considered to be a cluster prime. The first 23 odd primes (up to 89) are all cluster primes. The first few odd primes that are not cluster primes are 97, 127, 149, 191, 211, 223, 227, 229, ... OEIS: It is not known if there are infinitely many cluster primes. Unsolved problem in mathematics: Are there infinitely many cluster primes? (more unsolved problems in mathematics) (Wikipedia).

Prime Numbers and their Mysterious Distribution (Prime Number Theorem)

Primes are the building blocks of math. But just how mysterious are they? Our study of prime numbers dates back to the ancient Greeks who first recognized that certain numbers can't be turned into rectangles, or that they can't be factored into any way. Over the years prime numbers have

A Surprising Way to Generate Primes

There is a Fibonacci-like recurrence that generates primes! It was discovered in 2003, but no one actually understood why it was generating primes. A few years later, I plotted the primes in a way that reveals some hidden structure. This is a tale of logarithmic scale. ---------------- R
