Dear readers!
Wesolowski inequality in A254248
works only for some constant c <= 0.
For c = 0 we get density d < 1/e correctly.
I found a more sensible formula, namely.
The density d(n) of de Polignac numbers <= n
is d(n) < (1 - 2 / log n)^(log n / log 2). It works!
Their asymptotic density d(oo) < 0.055833...
Conjecture: d(n) ~ (1 - 2 / log n)^(log n / log 2).
The asymptotic density d(oo) = exp(-2 / log 2).
This density d = 0.055833... is hypothetical.
Any comments are welcome!
Best regards,
Thomas Ordowski
