A eeralized arithmetic proressio of cosecutive primes is defied to be the sequece of primes, PP, + ω, P+ ω, L, P+ ω ad P + ω, P + ω, L, P + ω, where P is the first term,. For example, 5,, 7,, ad, 7, 4, is a eeralized arithmetic proressio of primes with P = 5, ω = 6, = ad =. Theorem 9. We defie the eeralized arithmetic proressios: (7) P = P+ iω ad i P i P iω + = + (74) where i =, L,,. We have Jia fuctio [] ( ) J ( ω) =Π P X( p), (75) X ( P ) is the umber of solutios of coruece q=,, L P. Π ( q+ iω )( q + iω ) 0(mod P), (76) i= If X ( P) = P ad J ( P ) = 0, the there exist fiite primes P such that P, P, L, P are primes. If X( P) < P, J ( ) 0 ω, the there exist ifiitely

14 may primes P such that P, P, L, P are all primes. If J ( ) 0 ω, we have the best asymptotic formula of the umber of primes P [] J ( ωω ) (, ) = ( + o()). (77) φ ( ω) (lo ) Example 9. Let ω = 6, =, ad =. From (74) we have P = P+ 6, P = P+, P = P+ 8 ad P = P + 6, P = P +, P = P + 8. (78) We have Jia fuctio [] 6 J( ω) = 67 Π P 7 0 P P P (79) Sice J ( ) ω as ω, there exist ifiitely may primes P such that P, L, P are all primes. 6 From (77) we have 6 J( ωω ) 7 (, ) = ( o()) φ ( ω) lo + (80) Remar. Theorems, ad 5 have the same Jia fuctio J ( ) ω ad theorems, 4 ad 6 the same Jia fuctio J 4 ( ω ) which have the same character. All irreducible prime equatios have the Jia fuctios ad the best asymptotic formulas []. I our theory there are o almost primes, for example P = PP + ad 4

15 = P+ PP are theorems of three euie primes. Usi the sieve method, circle method, erodic theory, harmoic aalysis, discrete eometry, ad combiatories they are ot able to attac twi primes cojecture, Goldbach cojecture, lo arithmetic proressios of primes ad other problems of primes ad to fid the best asymptotic formulas.
