Abstract:

(A) By the circle method of Hardy and Littlewood and his method on the estimation of trigonometrical sum with prime variables, I. M. Vinogradov [l] first proved in 1937 that every large odd number is the sum of three prime numbers which is usually called the Goldbach-Vinogradov theorem or the three primes theorem. Later, Ju. V. Linnik [2] and N. G. Tchudakov [3] gave another two proofs on this theorem based on the estimation of the density of zeros of L-functions. Recently, H. L. Montgomery [4] and M. N. Huxley [5] gave two simplified proofs which are also based on the estimation of the density of zeros of L-functions, and in their proofs, the approximate functional equation of L-function and a mean value theorem on the fourth moment of L-function are used.a) In this paper, a new simplified analytic proof of the three primes theorem will be given which is not based on the Vinogradov’s estimation and the density theorem of zeros of L-function, and only some well-known simple facts on L-function are used…
