Abstract
In 1975, Montgomery and Vaughan proved that the number of exceptions to the binary Goldbach problem is power-saving. I will discuss work where we obtain a nearly power-saving exceptional set for numbers that are not the sum of two “almost twin primes”. This is joint work with Lasse Grimmelt.
