Title:
Joint Distribution of primes in multiple short intervals
Speaker:
Abstract:
Assuming the Riemann hypothesis (RH) and the linear independence conjecture (LI), we show that the weighted count of primes in multiple disjoint short intervals has a multivariate Gaussian logarithmic limiting distribution with weak negative correlation. As a consequence, we derive short-interval counterparts for many important works in the literature of the Shanks–Rényi prime number race, including a sharp phase transition from all races being asymptotically unbiased to the existence of biased races. Our result remains novel, even for primes in a single moving interval, especially under a quantitative formulation of the linear independence conjecture (QLI).
