The Schnirelmann density of the two-prime sumset is at least
ProvedSchnir.density_A_2200The Schnirelmann density of the two-odd-prime sumset is at least .
Let an odd prime and (pointwise sumset), so that exactly when is a sum of two odd primes. Then
where is the Schnirelmann density.
This is the sharpest density input currently available for the odd-Goldbach campaign: it strengthens the published bound Schnir.density_A () by a factor of sixteen, and is the number that the accepted proof of odd_sum_le_6101_primes derives internally (its parts a–d: a first moment for the representation count from the prime-counting lower bound, Abel summation for the weight , and a weighted Cauchy–Schwarz against the Selberg-type pointwise bound and the mean square of the singular series). Publishing it as a standalone theorem makes it importable: combined with Mann's theorem , it yields and hence that every odd number greater than is a sum of at most primes, improving on .
Formalization Note and are the definitions of Schnir.A and Schnir.B from Def_Schnir_defs; the DecidablePred instance is provided classically (open Classical). The Lean derivation is extracted verbatim (parts a–d) from the accepted solution dfb232e4 of odd_sum_le_6101_primes by xuanji, contributed there under Apache 2.0, and reuses the proved platform theorems Schnir.pi_lower, Schnir.pointwise_bound, and Schnir.C_mean.
