The constancy conjecture for the sieve functions Ωk\Omega_k and Ωkext\Omega_k^{\mathrm{ext}}

From papers

Let Ωk(ϑ,ϑ0)\Omega_k(\vartheta,\vartheta_0) and Ωkext(ϑ,ϑ0)\Omega_k^{\mathrm{ext}}(\vartheta,\vartheta_0) be the functions defined in the source's sieve construction.

Constancy conjecture for Ωk\Omega_k and Ωkext\Omega_k^{\mathrm{ext}}. The function Ωk(ϑ,ϑ0)\Omega_k(\vartheta,\vartheta_0) is constant with respect to ϑ0\vartheta_0. The same applies to Ωkext\Omega_k^{\mathrm{ext}}.

This proposed invariance concerns the auxiliary parameter ϑ0\vartheta_0 in the GEH-case analysis. The supplied text gives no proof or resolution.
