1st Edition. FIRST EDITION IN ORIGINAL WRAPPERS OF THE CELEBRATED GREEN-TAO THEOREM. The theorem states that the prime numbers contain arbitrary long arithmetic progressions. For example, 5, 11, 17, 23, 29 is a sequence of five primes equally spaced, and so in arithmetic progression, the Green-Tao theorem says that you can find…sequences of equally spaced primes which are as long as you like, though the spacing between them might be bigger" (IAS, Green-Tao Theorem). A long-held and almost folkloric conjecture was that primes contain arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions. The problem can be traced back to investigations of Lagrange and Waring from around 1770. Green and Tao prove "there are arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions of primes. There are three major ingredients. The first is Szemeredi's theorem, which asserts that any subset of the integers of positive density contains progressions of arbitrary length. The second, which is the main new ingredient of this paper, is a certain transference principle. This allows us to deduce from Szemeredi's theorem that any subset of a sufficiently pseudorandom set (or measure) of positive relative density contains progressions of arbitrary length. The third ingredient is a recent result of Goldston and Y ld r m, which we reproduce here. Using this, one may place (a large fraction of) the primes inside a pseudorandom set of "almost primes" (or more precisely, a pseudorandom measure concentrated on almost primes) with positive relative density" (Abstract, Green and Tao, The Primes Contain, Ann Math, p. 481, 2008).
