Abstract

Let E(X) denote the number of even integers below X which are not a sum of two primes. We prove the bound E(X)=O(X(7)/(10)), where the implicit constant is ineffective. The method applied here also leads to P(q)=O(q5), where P(q) denotes the least prime, if it exists, in any arithmetic progression modulo q.
