Discussion Overview

The discussion centers around the Reimann hypothesis and its implications for understanding the distribution of prime numbers. Participants explore the existence of patterns within prime numbers and whether these patterns can lead to a definitive solution to the problem of prime distribution.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • Some participants propose that a thorough breakdown of prime number distribution could provide insights into predictability and the exact identification of primes up to a given number.
  • Others express skepticism about the claims of discovering new patterns, suggesting that the proposed insights may not hold up to scrutiny.
  • One participant mentions a paper listing various patterns and properties of primes, indicating that there are established patterns, but questions the novelty of the claims made.
  • Another participant asserts that their understanding of the gaps and spirals in prime distribution is based on a unique perspective that could explain various phenomena.
  • Some participants challenge the certainty of the claims, with one stating that whatever is proposed is likely incorrect, while another insists on the validity of their findings.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants express differing views on the existence and significance of patterns in prime numbers. There is no consensus on the validity of the claims made, with some participants expressing confidence in their findings while others remain skeptical.

Contextual Notes

The discussion includes various assumptions about the nature of patterns in prime numbers and the implications of the Reimann hypothesis, but these assumptions are not universally accepted or validated within the conversation.

TL;DR
Wondering what to do with the solution to the whole prime number distribution mystery.
The Reimann hypothesis, from what I gather, would answer questions to the distribution of prime numbers.

So then, would a thorough breakdown of the distribution of prime numbers and how predictable they are distributed, solve the problem?
This predictability makes it possible to determined exactly what prime a prime number is and exactly how many up to a given number!
The patterns I have discovered are so amazingly obvious yet more intricately woven than one would think. Yes. patterns! As in several, and including some that I've overlooked, I'm sure.
The solution is more than worthy of the esteem of the Reimann hypothesis, and will be a notable contribution to ..maths. It's so exciting!
It's amazing how It all fits together, yet once you see it. .

I believe there are many patterns in the primes. Here's a paper listing several patterns and other properties: https://maa.org/sites/default/files/pdf/upload_library/22/Ford/Granville.pdf
 
Cute, but not exactly what I'm saying...as those don't even compare. .
So there's a pattern that can be applied right along to infinity. Then that's broken down into several overlapping yet fitting, And repeating and growing patterns. I know exactly why the gaps are where they are.
I can explain many questions in this video...why the arms are missing, the small spiral where, really, all the magic does happen, and the medium spiral and why it straightens out. The significance of the numbers he mentions...
And the prime number theorem...says "about how many" ... So wouldn't it be more helpful..to know exactly how many?
And I can build this entire system from nothing but zero and one.


 
Hi, @TartElm, very interesting.

Sure?

Best wishes!

Nothing. Whatever you have in mind and whatever you think you have proven is certainly wrong.

Certainly??? Why is that?

It makes sense in every way possible.
Its Truly amazing.
And most certainly, absolutely indoubitably, correct.

I am absolutely sure. It proves itself over and over in many ways.

Guess y'all will just have to wait and see and eat your words.

Actually there are several. That repeat. And expand. And patterns that follow a pattern. And it's complex but oh so simple. Magnificent, really. And weird that it can explain all the questions in that video....
But. Hey. It's impossible. Right? Or is it only impossible because you were told it is?

Because my thinking was ..how can there NOT BE a pattern? How? THAT seemed impossible to me.

Thanks for you thoughts.
 
People with real insights publish and share their discoveries with the world. They don't act like trolls on an online forum saying, "It's so simple!" or "It's so obvious!" without giving any indication that they know anything at all about the subject.

Extremely unlikely.
