Abstract

In recent work by Botkin, Dawsey, Hemmer, Just and the present author, a deterministic model of prime number distribution is developed based on properties of integer partitions that gives almost exact estimates for π(n)\pi(n), the number of primes less than or equal to positive integer nn, up to n=10,000n=10{,}000. In this follow-up paper, the author summarizes the ideas behind this partition-theoretic model of primes and formulates a computational model that is practically exact in its estimates of π(n)\pi(n) up to n=100,000n=100,000.
