Long Composite Stretches at Consecutive Prime-Gap Products: A Uniform Maynard Argument
Abstract
For consecutive primes p0 and D. A single fixed gap occurs for infinitely many such pairs. The proof controls the growing CRT modulus: a presieve leaves O(L/log L) targets, giving log Q=O(L) for L proportional to log log X. With m=2 and ε=1/100 fixed, the resulting coefficient Q≤(log T)^(1/4) lies within the coefficient range of Maynard’s Theorem 3.4. This result is compatible with K(M)≤ceil((log M)^2); it neither proves nor disproves the universal Sparacino conjecture. This note expands Theorem 2 in the author’s earlier version 13 (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.23638603) and makes no priority claim.
