Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Rubinstein and Sarnak have shown, conditional on the Riemann hypothesis (RH) and the linear independence hypothesis (LI) on the nonreal zeros of ζ ( s ) \zeta (s) , that the set of real numbers x ≥ 2 x\ge 2 for which π ( x ) > li ⁡ ( x ) \pi (x)>\operatorname {li}(x) has a logarithmic density, which they computed to be about 2.6 × 10 − 7 2.6\times 10^{-7} . A natural problem is to examine the actual primes in this race. We prove, assuming RH and LI, that the logarithmic density of the set of primes p p for which π ( p ) > li ⁡ ( p ) \pi (p)>\operatorname {li}(p) relative to the prime numbers exists and is the same as the Rubinstein–Sarnak density. We also extend such results to a broad class of prime number races, including the “Mertens race” between ∏ p > x ( 1 − 1 / p ) − 1 \prod _{p> x}(1-1/p)^{-1} and e γ log ⁡ x e^{\gamma }\log x and the “Zhang race” between

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
