TLDR
The following conjecture of R. L. Graham is verified: ifn≧n0, wheren0 is an explicitly computable constant, then for anyn distinct positive integersa1,a2, ...,an the authors have ai/(ai,aj) ≧ ≧n, and equality holds only in two trivial cases.
Abstract
The following conjecture of R. L. Graham is verified: Ifn≧n 0, wheren 0 is an explicitly computable constant, then for anyn distinct positive integersa 1,a 2, ...,a n we have\(\mathop {\max }\limits_{i,j} \) a i /(a i ,a j ) ≧ ≧n, and equality holds only in two trivial cases. Here (a i ,a j ) stands for the greatest cnmmon divisor ofa i anda j .

Covering the integers by arithmetic sequences. II

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reveal further connections between the common differences in an (exact) m-cover of Z and Egyptian fractions, and show that m-covers A of Z can be defined as systems where every integer is covered by A at least (exactly) m times.

Some Problems and Results on Combinatorial Number Theory

TL;DR: In this article, the authors try to write this paper in such a way that it will not entirely be contained in the union of the set of my previous papers and that a t least some of the open problems I state will not be entirely hopeless.

On the Difference Between Consecutive Primes.

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that (2) holds with & = 13/23 and (3) is admissible with and = 0 • 5652 and that (4) can be relaxed to # > 5/9 by an elaboration of the argument.
