20.41.14.1  Fermat pseudoprimes

"In number theory, the Fermat pseudoprimes make up the most important class of pseudoprimes that come from Fermat's little theorem ... [which] states that if p is prime and a is coprime to p, then a^(p-1)-1 is divisible by p [see fermltl 16483].

For an integer a > 1, if a composite integer x divides a^(x-1)-1, then x is called a Fermat pseudoprime to base a. In other words, a composite integer is a Fermat pseudoprime to base a if it successfully passes the Fermat primality test for the base a. The false statement [see nfermltl2rev 45164] that all numbers that pass the Fermat primality test for base 2, are prime, is called the Chinese hypothesis.", see Wikipedia "Fermat pseudoprime", https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermat_pseudoprime 45164, 29-May-2023.

20.41.14.2  Goldbach's conjectures

According to Wikipedia ("Goldbach's conjecture", 20-Jul-2020, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goldbach's_conjecture) "Goldbach's conjecture ... states: Every even integer greater than 2 can be expressed as the sum of two primes." "It is also known as strong, even or binary Goldbach conjecture, to distinguish it from a weaker conjecture, known ... as the _Goldbach's weak conjecture_, the _odd Goldbach conjecture_, or the _ternary Goldbach conjecture_. This weak conjecture asserts that all odd numbers greater than 7 are the sum of three odd primes.". In the following, the terms "binary Goldbach conjecture" resp. "ternary Goldbach conjecture" will be used (following the terminology used in [Helfgott] p. 2), because there are a strong and a weak version of the ternary Goldbach conjecture. The term _Goldbach partition_ is used for a sum of two resp. three (odd) primes resulting in an even resp. odd number without further specialization.

Using the definition of a _Goldbach number_, which is "a positive even integer that can be expressed as the sum of two odd primes." (see df-gbe 45169), "another form of the statement of Goldbach's conjecture is that all even integers greater than 4 are Goldbach numbers.". 4 is not a Goldbach number, but it is the sum of two primes (2 and 2) nevertheless. sbgoldbalt 45202 shows that both forms are equivalent.

Hint (see Wikipedia, ("Goldbach's weak conjecture", 26-Jul-2020, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goldbach's_weak_conjecture 45202): "Some state the [weak] conjecture as 'Every odd number greater than 7 can be expressed as the sum of three odd primes.' This version excludes 7 = 2+2+3 because this requires the even prime 2. On odd numbers larger than 7 it is slightly stronger as it also excludes sums like 17 = 2+2+13, which are allowed in the other formulation. Helfgott's proof [see below] covers both versions of the conjecture. Like the other formulation, this one also immediately follows from Goldbach's strong conjecture." The definition of "weak odd Goldbach numbers", see df-gbow 45170, is the basis for "the other formulation", to formulate the weak ternary Goldbach conjecture. Alternately, df-gbo 45171 provides a definition of "(strong) odd Goldbach numbers" allowing for stating the strong ternary Goldbach conjecture. In literature, the term "Goldbach number" is used for "even Goldbach numbers" (according to definition df-gbe 45169), whereas there seems to be no explicit names and definitions for "odd Goldbach numbers". Since there are more theorems for "strong odd Goldbach numbers", "odd Goldbach numbers" refers to "strong odd Goldbach numbers" in the following. Otherwise, the term "weak odd Goldbach numbers" is explicitly used.

In contrast to the two versions of the binary Goldbach conjecture, the two versions of the ternary Goldbach conjecture are different not only for small numbers, but the strong version excludes cases like a=2+2+b in general, e.g., 23=2+2+19. Therefore, it seems to be more difficult to prove the strong ternary Goldbach conjecture than the weak version, because there are fewer possible partitions available.

Although the binary Goldbach conjecture is not proven yet, the ternary Goldbach conjecture was proven by Harald Helfgott in 2014 (the weak as well as the strong version, see Main theorem in [Helfgott] p. 2). It would be great if this proof can be formalized with Metamath (although it is not in the Metamath 100 list). This section should be a starting point for this.

The main problem will be to provide means to express the results from checking "small" numbers (performed with a computer): numbers up to about 4 x 10^18 for the binary Goldbach conjecture (see section 2 in [OeSilva] p. 2042, called "even Goldbach conjecture" here) resp. about 9 x 10^30 for the ternary Goldbach conjecture (see section 1.2.2 in [Helfgott] p. 4) or 8 x 10^26 (see theorem 2.1 in [OeSilva] p. 2057, called "odd Goldbach conjecture" here). Maybe each of the results must be provided as theorem, like 6gbe 45192, which would be quite a lot...

As proposed in the Google group discussion https://groups.google.com/g/metamath/c/DOXS4pg0h8w , this problem could be solved by using a reflective verifier or adding a concept of verification certificates that can be added into the Metamath databases as a reference. To sidestep the computation problem for now, the corresponding theorems are temporarily provided as axioms, see ax-bgbltosilva 45231, ax-hgprmladder 45235 and ax-tgoldbachgt 45232.
