Assume Prime Numbers are Three Dimensional

ABST: Prime Number sums reveal a 3D pattern - using the golden ratio log!

Introduction

It is well known that Prime Number attributes are logarithmic and that
they form an upward spiral in some fashion.

This 3D pattern was found by assuming Primes are cubic numbers
and that their sum represents the interior volume of the Prime spiral.

For example, the sum of the first 25 primes is assumed to be 160 cubic units,
and first 168 sums to 76,127 cubic units, etc.

The Golden ratio was chosen because its has all three ratios simultaneously:
length increases by P^1=1.618... , area by P^2=2.618...
and volume by P^3=4.23606... ;
also note that P^2 = P^1 + 1 and P^3 = 4 + P^-3.

Lp is the log to base(sqrt(5) + 1) / 2 = 1.618...;
Lp(X) = Log( X ) / Log(1.618....) .

Here are some common Lp examples/values:
Lp(123) = 10.000137... , and the inverse Px(10) = 122.991... ,
Lp(199) = 10.9999... , Lp(pi) = 2.37885~, Lp(e) = 2.078087~,
Lp(2) = 1.44042~.

Lucas numbers represent the integer steps of Px(n) series; 123 is the 10th.

---------------------------------

Results for the first 200K Primes

A regular pattern was found by summing the primes and noting sums based on
Lp unit increments.
That perspective reveals a regular three step pattern documented in the table
below as a sequence that approaches two.

---------------------------------
The five column table below lists the step count, the Prime at that step,
the sum of all Primes to that step, its log using the golden ratio- Lp,
and the plus 3 Lp volume step ratio which approaches two.

---------------------------------

For example, the last two selected P^3 steps are at 60,454 and 120,664 ;
they sum to 2.175057E10 cubics with a Lp of 49.464507, and to
9.213938E10 cubics with a Lp of 52.464563 and have a 3 step ratio of
120664/60454 = 1.996~.


The reason the Lp's can not increase by exactly one, is that Lp(primesum)
steps from less than one to over one, based on the last prime integer added.


This spiral pattern will obviously go on indefinitely,
so the only question left concerns the 3 step ratio as the sums increase.

Does it continue to increase or will it remain below two?
I believe that it will never exceed two.

---------------------------------

I credit my Computer System Analyses Skills and Tools, along with my
Geometrical insights, in making this discovery possible.


I am working on a "Geometry of the Prime Numbers" paper based on these
insights.
It uses the 12 sided Dodecahedron as the 3D model.

If you really want to set off alarm bells that scream
CRANK POST COMING!!!!!
then the above is a great way to start.

I still can't make hide nor tail of your post,
but I do wonder whether anything you've done
really has anything to do with primes.
What happens if you repeat your calculations using,
say, all odd numbers instead of just the primes?
Or using the numbers [ n log n ], n = 1, 2, ...,
where [x] means the integer part of x
and the log in question is the natural log?
Come to think of it, what if you use natural logs
instead of golden ratio logs? Do you still get "patterns"?

More alarm bells.

Hey Gerry

Did you ever see any pattern in Primes Sums?

If so, pls enlighten me .

Don't you think the fact as the data support, that Prime Sums appear
to be 3D in a numerical sense, warrants some recognition?

I notice you did not find any errors in the data.

The paper states WHY Lp was used;
it has 1D, 2D and 3D aspects simultaneously!!!!

There are lots of patterns in the sum of the first n primes.
Any good text on analytic number theory will show you
how to estimate the sum of p, over all primes p less than x,
as a function of x.

As I've mentioned several times, your presentation is impenetrable,
so it's not the least bit clear what your data is, much less what it may
or may not support.

> I notice you did not find any errors in the data.

It's hard to find errors when the presentation is so obscure.

You're missing the point. If some other log is used,
and if you still get the same patterns,
it will show that there's nothing special about
the golden ratio. That's the way mathematics works;
we try to falsify, not justify, our conclusions.
