Waring's prime number conjecture
From HandWiki
In number theory, Waring's prime number conjecture is a conjecture related to Vinogradov's theorem, named after the English mathematician Edward Waring. It states that every odd number exceeding 3 is either a prime number or the sum of three prime numbers. It follows from the generalized Riemann hypothesis,[1] and (trivially) from Goldbach's weak conjecture.
