Density versions of the binary Goldbach problem (Q6994611)

Let \(\delta>\frac{1}{2}\). In the paper under review, the authors prove that if \(A\) is a subset of the primes such that the relative density of \(A\) in every reduced residue class is at least \(\delta\), then almost all even integers can be written as a sum of two primes in \(A\). The constant \(\frac{1}{2}\) in the statement is best possible. Moreover, the authors also give an example to show that for any \(\varepsilon > 0\) there exists a subset of the primes with relative density at least \(1-\varepsilon\) such that \(A + A\) misses a positive proportion of even integers.
