### The Goldbach problem for primes that are sums of two squares plus one

Abstract:

We study the Goldbach problem for primes represented by the polynomial $x^2+y^2+1$. The set of such primes is sparse in the set of all primes, but the infinitude of such primes was established by Linnik. We prove that almost all even integers $n$ satisfying certain necessary local conditions are representable as the sum of two primes of the form $x^2+y^2+1$. This improves a result of Matomäki, which tells that almost all even $n$ satisfying a local condition are the sum of one prime of the fo...
