Finite-ray prediction accuracy hypothesis for prime numbers
Finite-ray prediction accuracy hypothesis for prime numbers
Let be a ray with . Let denote the number of correct decimal digits available in the floating-point arithmetic, and let be a finite index. For odd , let be the natural number predicted by formulae (34) and (35), and let be a solution of equation (36) whose right-hand side is . The prime number associated with the ray is denoted by . Finite-ray prediction accuracy hypothesis. For every ray with , there exist finite numbers and such that lies closer to than does. This compares the proposed finite-domain approximation with the usual logarithmic-integral inversion; the source provides numerical motivation but no proof or resolution.
