Question
Salem–Spencer sets cannot contain any non-trivial examples of these sequences, which are the subject of Szemerédi's theorem. For 10 points each:
[10e] Name these sequences in which the difference between any two consecutive terms is constant, unlike in geometric sequences.
ANSWER: arithmetic sequences [or arithmetic progressions]
[10h] In 2004, Szemerédi's theorem was extended with this result, which states that the sequence of prime numbers contains arbitrarily long arithmetic sequences.
ANSWER: Green–Tao theorem
[10m] The Green–Tao theorem led to improved results concerning the first Hardy–Littlewood conjecture, which generalizes this conjecture. This conjecture has been verified up to 10-to-the-388342, somewhat larger than the 10-to-the-18 upper bound for Goldbach’s conjecture.
ANSWER: twin prime conjecture
