Basic definitions and notation
DefinitionFirst prime gap#
\(P(g)\) is the first prime \(p_n\) for which the prime gap \(p_{n+1}-p_n\) is equal to \(g\), or \(0\) if no such gap exists.
Definitionpi#
\(\pi(x)\) is the number of primes less than or equal to \(x\).

Definitionli and Li#
\(\mathrm{li}(x) = \int_0^x \frac{dt}{\log t}\) (in the principal value sense) and \(\mathrm{Li}(x) = \int_2^x \frac{dt}{\log t}\).

LemmaAdmissible bound decreasing for large x#
If \(A,B,C,R > 0\) then the classical bound is monotone decreasing for \(x \geq \exp( R (2B/C)^2 )\).
Proof
Differentiate the bound and check the sign.

LemmaClassic bound implies numerical bound#
A classical bound for \(x \geq x_0\) implies a numerical bound for \(x \geq \max(x_0, \exp( R (2B/C)^2 ))\).
Proof
Immediate from previous lemma
Lean
Formalized as Eψ.classicalBound.to_numericalBound, Eθ.classicalBound.to_numericalBound, Eπ.classicalBound.to_numericalBound.
