Vinogradov's Three Primes Theorem with Primes from Special Sets
summary
Shows that the only genuine obstruction to Vinogradov’s three‑prime conclusion for a subset of primes is concentration on small Bohr sets (a Boset obstruction), proves a transference principle reducing the problem to dense models, and uses exponential‑sum bounds plus sieve majorants/minorants and Baker–Harman–Pintz short‑interval estimates to get concrete improvements: recovers Zhao’s sharp 5/8 density barrier example, handles sieve‑controlled sets like the “Zen” primes, and pushes the almost‑equal‑primes exponent to theta = 0.55, with effective arguments and explicit Fourier/control bounds.
