Abstract

Fortune’s Conjecture is extended from a relatively short interval after each primorial  to an infinite numbers of similar intervals on both sides of primorials, where  n  is a positive integer. In addition, it is shown that for every prime in the interval ,there is a number in the interval  that is also a prime or 1, such that.  Since n can take infinitely many values, it is highly probable that the reverse of the above theorem is also true. Accordingly, it is conjecture that for every prime  ,  there exist a prime in the interval  that gives a much larger prime when added to or subtracted from the primorial multiplied by an integer  n.

Primes distribution of primes sieves.
