Liu, Jianya; Liu, Ming-Chit; Wang, Tianze On the almost Goldbach problem of Linnik. (English) Zbl 0979.11051 J. Théor. Nombres Bordx. 11, No. 1, 133-147 (1999). In 1953 Yu. V. Linnik [Mat. Sb., Nov. Ser. 32 (74), 3-60 (1953; Zbl 0051.03402)] showed that every large even integer can be written as a sum of two odd primes and a bounded number of powers of 2. Assuming the generalized Riemann hypothesis, the authors show that, for \(k\geq 200\), every even \(N\geq N_k\) can be written as a sum of two odd primes and at most \(k\) powers of 2. They follow the original argument of Linnik, combined with a careful treatment of the numerical constant. Reviewer: Dieter Wolke (Freiburg i.Br.)
