2014.04.28 I have solved the twin prime conjecture.

None of that proves or disproves the twin prime conjecture. It just shows that P0,..., Pn does not divide P0*...*Pn*(2*I+-1)/2 +-1+-3 for arbitrarily large n. In the infinite case, none of those expressions are integers , and we're probably looking at {INFINITY, INFINITY, INFINITY, INFINITY} @ . In a finite case, it's not proven that out of {prod -4, prod -2, prod +2, prod +4) there must be 2 consecutive odd integers which are both prime, and not just relatively prime to P0,...,Pn.

@ and i^INFINITY is undefined.



The problem with using a variable b in place of both infinities simultaneously is that there could be primes greater than Pb that are not elements of {[0]prod(Pn)*(2*I+-1)/2 -4, [0]prod(Pn)*(2*I+-1)/2 - 2, [0]prod(Pn)*(2*I+-1)/2+2, [0]prod(Pn)*(2*I+-1)/2+4) } and divide enough of those elements so that there isn't a twin prime within the set@. Again, the limit of the product of b primes as b -> INFINITY does not exist.

@That is to say, you haven't shown that there is a twin prime pair outside of each finite subset, only some of them.


Edit: 39213 = 3*3*4567
39219 = 3*71*193

Edit2: 2*3*5*7*11*13 = 30030
30030 * (2*7 - 1)/2 = 195915
195191 = 47*4153
195199 = 29*53*127


Let me try to clarify.

1) My equation represents the relationship between the INFINITE SET of Primes and the INFINITE SET of Integers at the 1/2period (specifically the residue of +-3+-1).
2) It is a linear equation (y=mx+b).
3) If you resolve it you will find -8,-4,0,+4,+8 ... a sin and cos (even and odd) with period of 8.
4) ALL integers have -I and +I values.
5) ALL P are integers and have -P and +P values.
6) Therefore all Primes exist as even and odd values (sin and cos) with period of 2P.
7) Therefore all Primes exist on one of two lines, -P+(8*I), and +P+(8*I).
7a) ... {P(i^2),P(i^4)} + (8*I)
7b) ... [note] this has center at {-1,+1} which is not divisible by any Prime, whereas its center is 0, which is divisible by every Prime.
8) Therefore all P[x]*P[x+1] leave residue of +-1 at the period and +-3+-1 at the 1/2period.
8a) Even if those residue are not prime they must resolve back to primes of even and odd nature, which themselves leave residue of +-1 and +-3+-1 respectively (period and 1/2period).
8b) ... examine the pairs surrounding -8,-4,0,+4,+8 line at the center of Ref(7a).
8c) ... ie -4 + 8I +-1, you find 2*(2),2*(2*3),2*(2*3*5),2*((2^2)*(3^2)), etc.

My sieve slowly zeroes those two lines, and in zeroing the lines, I discovered there was always residue of +-1 and +-3+-1 being generated.

How so? What are the constants m1,...,mn and b? What do the variables x1,...,xn and y represent?

7) Therefore all Primes exist on one of two lines, -P+(8*I), and +P+(8*I).

Quick reply before I leave for the day:
I mean y=4x+-P.
That is two parallel lines {y=4x-P, y=4x+P}.

Example:
Code:
-1,3,7,11,15,19,23,27,31,35,39,43,47,51,55,59,63,67,71,etc
 0,4,8,12,16,20,24,28,32,36,40,44,48,52,56,60,64,68,72,etc
+1,5,9,13,17,21,25,29,33,37,41,45,49,53,57,61,65,69,73,etc

The pairs I asked you to note were (3,5),(11,13),(59,61), and (71,73).

Spoiler :
I am sorry for my non-standard math, but modern formations mess me up.
I can express all square roots as a function of a single continued fraction but not when continued fractions are defined as it is in my math encyclopedia and I can't even think in math if I say C=2*pi*r ... I know it is true, but for me, it is just broken when trying to understand pi. Once I realized pi IS the circumference, math made a whole lot more sense.
 
Let me try to standardize my formula.

(x-1)!+x and (x-1)!+x+2 are twin primes.

Wrong.

[savantmode] He only gave you a push to see what he wrote. What he wanted you to see was those first examples. But not as twin primes. Just so as to have you notice the pattern between them. [/savantmode]

Well, i don't know. Computer (freeware) programs are very cool for generating this sort of outcome and checking divisibility. I really cannot say much about the proof being there or not, but i think that RD-BH can be happy that if any of his posted work here can tie him to an actual solution, then TPTB will have to kill a number of CFCOT people by now.

So look at the sky for drones ;)

This was a statement regarding the form of x when x and x+2 are both prime.
They would not be divisible by any factor of (x-1)!.

This makes more sense if stated:
... P +- 2^x is not divisible by P for P>2
... Therefore the product(n_1^x)(P_n) +- (2^I) is not divisible by any element of P for all I != 0 and all x
... Therefore product(n_1^x)(P_n) +- (2^1) and product(n_1^x)(P_n) +- (2^2) are four twin pairs not divisible by any element of P for all I != 0 and all x
... [note] P_0 = 2, therefore (odd products) +- (powers of 2) = (odd results)
... [note] "product(n_1^x)(P_n)" is "product (from n=1 to n=x) of quantity (P sub n)"
... [note] "!=" is read "not equal" in this context
... [note] When I = 0, 2^0 = 1 and product(n_1^x)(P_n) +- 2^0 is divisible by P_0

Trying to move this to a factorial leaves no method of effectively reducing the set to odd numbers, hence why it is useless as a statement.

[???]
if I>2 then I! is even and I!+-1 is odd
For (P-1)!
... is P + 2^x, for x != 0, divisible by divisors of (P-1)!?
... (6!) example
... what about P!?
... This is now a number including all primes lower than itself
... is P! + P + 2^x, for x != 0, divisible by any divisors of P!?
... [???] 7! + 7 + 2^1 is divisible by 3
... [???] P!/(2^x) + 2^I would still be indivisible by any divisor of P! where x is such that P!/(2^x) is odd and I != 0

=== still working on correct wording ===
Let us examine Integers and Indivisibility.

… x/n is an integer when n is a divisor of x
… 1i^(4x/n) equals 1 when n is a divisor of x [1i = (-1)^(1/2)]
… numberOfDivisors(x) = sum_(n=1)^(x){floor(abs(1i^(4x/n)+1)/2)}
… numberOfDivisors(x) = 2 for prime integers [1, P]
… numberOfDivisors(P^x) = x+1 for prime integer P [P^0..P^x]

Integer/Prime leaves a remainder of 0..(Prime-1)
If we form a matrix where the number of columns is indivisible by a prime number of rows, then fill the matrix with sequential integers, we note Integer/Prime (number of rows equal prime) leave uninterrupted vertical series of indivisible integers.

Consider:
… a vertical series of 1s representing the number line
… now zero integers divisible by two and form 2 columns
… column 0: 2*I + 0, column 1: 2*I + 1 (ie vertical column with each row 01)
… now zero integers in column 1 divisible by 3 and form 6 columns
… column 0: 2*3*I + 0, column 1: 2*3*I + 1, … , column 5: 2*3*I + 5 (ie each row 010001)
… we note Integer/Prime leaves uninterrupted vertical (ie linear) series of indivisible integers
… this pattern of indivisibility repeats through infinite periods (ie Period*I + remainder; 6*I+1,6*I+5)

What can we glean from this behavior?

1) Because there are infinite Primes, dividing an infinite series by a prime leaves infinite linear series of indivisible integers.
2) There are infinite indivisible twin pairs
… 2 leaves an infinite series of indivisible twin pairs with remainders (1,1)
… 3 leaves 1 infinite series of indivisible twin pairs with remainders (2,1) [zeroing remainders from 2]
… 5 leaves 3 infinite series of indivisible twin pairs with remainders (1,3),(2,4),(4,1) [zeroing remainders from 2 and 3]
… 7 leaves 5 infinite series of indivisible twin pairs with remainders (1,3),(2,4),(3,5),(4,6),(6,1) [zeroing remainders from 2,3, and 5]
… if we continue you will see the number of infinite series is P-2 for P>2

This is because we make P copies (1 per P rows) of the previous indivisible twin pairs (101) and P can only divide 1 integer in each column per P rows.

We can now show the total number of indivisible twin pairs.
ITP(x) = (product_(n=1)^(x){(P_n) – 2}) / (product_(n=1)^(x){P_n}) * infinity
… note the actual number is > ITP(x) as we are not counting combos where P-2 or P+2 are prime
This is a/b * c where a is infinite, b is infinite, and c is infinite.
If we assume a finite number of twin primes, a/b * c should be finite.
… note: c > product_(n=1)^(P_x){I_n} > b for I_n = nth integer, therefore c/b > 1
Therefore, there must be infinite twin primes.

Consider:
… (2*I + 1) is not divisible by 2
… (2*I + 1) – 2^J is not divisible by 2 for integer J > 0
… (2*I + 1) + 2^J is not divisible by 2 for integer J > 0
… since all primes > 2 are odd integers they all resolve to (2*I + 1)
… since odd integer * odd integer is also odd then all multiplicative combos of primes > 2 also resolve to (2*I + 1)
... since all odd primes are greater than 2, and there exist integers divisible by only odd primes, then none of those odd prime divisors can divide an integer +- 2^J from that integer
Therefore f(x) = (product_(n=1)^(x){P_n}/2) * (2*I + 1) +- 2^J + K*product_(n=1)^(x){P_n} for integers I, J > 0, K has infinite number of infinite series of indivisible twin pairs solutions
If we assume a finite number of twin primes, f(x) should have finite solutions, it has infinite solutions.
Therefore there must be infinite twin primes.
