Zusammenfassung:Let and be the set of natural numbers and prime numbers, respectively. For a positive integer n, define the following two representation functions and An old result of Erdős showed that is unbounded. As an elementary application of the Maynard-Tao theorem, we prove that is also unbounded, which confirms a conjecture of Chen in 2010.
