Let pi(7,n,x) be the prime counting function of
primes n mod 7.

Then for all positive integer x and all positive
integer N :

pi(7,3,x^2) >= pi(7,N,x^2) - 7.

Well, it's certainly true for N = 3, indeed, for N =
3 (mod 7),
and for N = 0 (mod 7).
For other N, it's more likely that
pi(7, 3, x^2) - pi(7, N, x^2) is unbounded above and
below.

so you have proof for those 2 ?- Hide quoted text -

Following methods of Littlewood, the proof should not be difficult.
However, it contains elements of sieve methods and the mathematics
involved is beyond Tommy's level.

I can sketch how such a proof will go, but will only do so if
Tommy can provide some evidence that he will be able to understand it.

So Tommy, please explain for us the Brun-Titchmarsh theorem and how it
is relevant to this problem.
