Statement of
Goldbach's conjecture
"Every even
number greater than 2 is the sum of two prime numbers."
A prime number is an odd number, except for 2.
The sum of two odd numbers is an even number.
SO
The sum of two prime numbers is an even number,
except for 2. (A)
It now remains to demonstrate the other meaning of the
conjecture.
Based on Erdős' theorem, which he established when he
was 18 years old:
For any integer n > 1, there always exists a prime
number between n and 2n.
Therefore, there exists a prime number p between n and
2n.
n <= p <= 2n (I)
and by analogy there exists a prime number q between
n/2 and n
n/2 <= q <=
n (II)
(I) + (II) gives 3n/2 <= p+q <=
3n
The sum p+q is an even number according to (A).
p+q = 2k
which gives 3n/2
<= 2k <= 3n
<=> 3n/4 <= k <= 3n/2
<=> k =n
QED
Hence the other meaning of the
conjecture: the sum of two prime numbers except 2 is an even number greater
than 2. (B)
(A) And (B) proves the validity of Goldbach's conjecture
"Every even
number greater than 2 is the sum of two prime numbers."
