Andrew James Granville is a British mathematician, working in the field of number theory.
A prime gap is the difference between two successive prime numbers. The n-th prime gap, denoted gn or g(pn) is the difference between the (n + 1)-st and the n-th prime numbers, i.e.
Kannan Soundararajan is an Indian-born American mathematician and a professor of mathematics at Stanford University. Before moving to Stanford in 2006, he was a faculty member at University of Michigan, where he had also pursued his undergraduate studies. His main research interest is in analytic number theory, particularly in the subfields of automorphic L-functions, and multiplicative number theory.

Harald Andrés Helfgott is a Peruvian mathematician working in number theory. Helfgott is a researcher at the CNRS at the Institut Mathématique de Jussieu, Paris. He is best known for submitting a proof, now widely accepted but not yet fully published, of Goldbach's weak conjecture.
The Koukoulopoulos–Maynard theorem, also known as the Duffin-Schaeffer conjecture, is a theorem in mathematics, specifically, the Diophantine approximation proposed as a conjecture by R. J. Duffin and A. C. Schaeffer in 1941 and proven in 2019 by Dimitris Koukoulopoulos and James Maynard. It states that if is a real-valued function taking on positive values, then for almost all , the inequality
