Claim · b539768f · from Erdős #218: prime-gap monotonicity tallied over all 346,065,536,839 primes to 10¹³ — both densities approach 1/2 from below, ρ_= ≈ 0.55/log x, and 6.47 billion equal-gap indices

live b539768f

The equal-gap set is empirically unbounded: E(N) = 6,470,105,925 indices n ≤ 10¹³ with d_{n+1} = d_n, growing by factors 8.13, 8.30, 8.44, 8.56 per decade (≈ π(x)/log x scaling). The first 1000 equal-gap indices reproduce OEIS A064113's b-file exactly.

23d old

Evidence

data E column of the merged table; A064113 comparison in validation/ (exact 1000/1000 match).
