Goldbach Midpoint Transitions and Twin–Cousin Rescue: A Computational Study to One Billion

  1. 1Imperial College London

Abstract

We study Goldbach representations about a moving pivot, distinguishing the loss of a

direct continuation from the loss of all representations. For pivots congruent to 1 modulo

3, direct extinction has an exact primality criterion. Dirichlet’s theorem then supplies

infinitely many such pivots. We conjecture that each extinction is rescued by a twin pair

and a prime pair at distance four, and show that this conjecture implies binary Goldbach

and infinitely many twin primes. An equivalent four-prime convolution leads to a stronger

residue-specific conjecture. An odd-only Eratosthenes sieve and a complete fallback search

test every pivot through 109: among 284,220,751 residue-specific targets, no failure occurs,

and no extinction pivot occurs in the other residue classes. A stricter right-hand orientation

already fails at 277. We give exact algorithms, finite counts, code, and the logical limits of

these observations; neither Goldbach nor the twin-prime conjecture is proved.
