Logarithmic growth conjecture for the set T(α)

Let T(α)T(\alpha) be the set defined in the paper, and write Tx(α)T_{\leq x}(\alpha) for its elements up to xx. Logarithmic growth conjecture. For suitable α(0,1)\alpha\in(0,1), there exists λ=λ(α)>0\lambda=\lambda(\alpha)>0 such that

#Tx(α)=λlogx+o(logx)as x.\# T_{\leq x}(\alpha)=\lambda\log x+o(\log x)\quad\text{as }x\to\infty.

This predicts a positive logarithmic asymptotic for the counting function of T(α)T(\alpha), strengthening the preceding result that T(α)T(\alpha) is non-empty for every α(0,1/9)\alpha\in(0,1/9). The meaning of “suitable” and the precise definition of T(α)T(\alpha) should be checked in the paper.
