A274189 Even numbers 2n that satisfy an extended Goldbach conjecture: They have at least one Goldbach partition 2n = p + q (p <= q; p, q prime) that satisfies p <= sqrt(n), at least one with sqrt(n) < p <= sqrt(2n) and at least one with p > sqrt(2n).

Comments

This sequence contains all even numbers that are not in A279040 or in A273457. I have verified numerically for all even numbers 4 < 2n < 4*10^10 that a Goldbach partition with the additional condition p > sqrt(2n) exists. It is conjectured that a(n) = 2*(n+12987) for all n > 7838315. If this conjecture is true, all even numbers 2n > 15702604 have all three types of Goldbach partitions and therefore satisfy the "extended Goldbach conjecture".

Example

a(1) = 34 = 3 + 31 = 5 + 29 = 11 + 23 = 17 + 17. Since 3 < sqrt(17) < 5 < sqrt(34) < 11 < 17, all three types of Goldbach partitions exist for 34.
