Theorems about prime numbers | Sieve theory

Brun's theorem

In number theory, Brun's theorem states that the sum of the reciprocals of the twin primes (pairs of prime numbers which differ by 2) converges to a finite value known as Brun's constant, usually denoted by B2 (sequence in the OEIS). Brun's theorem was proved by Viggo Brun in 1919, and it has historical importance in the introduction of sieve methods. (Wikipedia).

Introduction to additive combinatorics lecture 1.8 --- Plünnecke's theorem

In this video I present a proof of Plünnecke's theorem due to George Petridis, which also uses some arguments of Imre Ruzsa. Plünnecke's theorem is a very useful tool in additive combinatorics, which implies that if A is a set of integers such that |A+A| is at most C|A|, then for any pair

Introduction to additive combinatorics lecture 10.8 --- A weak form of Freiman's theorem

In this short video I explain how the proof of Freiman's theorem for subsets of Z differs from the proof given earlier for subsets of F_p^N. The answer is not very much: the main differences are due to the fact that cyclic groups of prime order do not have lots of subgroups, so one has to
