Dirichlet density of a set of prime ideals #

Let K be a number field. Given a set S of nonzero prime ideals of 𝓞 K, its Dirichlet density is $$ \delta(S) = \lim_{s \to 1^+} \frac{\sum_{\mathfrak p \in S} \operatorname{N} \mathfrak p^{-s}} {\sum_{\mathfrak p} \operatorname{N} \mathfrak p^{-s}}, $$ when this limit exists. The sum in the denominator runs over all nonzero prime ideals of 𝓞 K.

This is captured by the predicate HasDirichletDensity S δ, stating that the ratio tends to δ, and by the definition dirichletDensity S, the density as a real number (with junk value 0 when it does not exist).

Main results #

The partial Dirichlet series $\sum_{\mathfrak p \in S} \operatorname{N} \mathfrak p^{-s}$.

Equations
Instances For

    For a finite set S of prime ideals, the partial sum $\sum_{\mathfrak p \in S} \operatorname{N} \mathfrak p^{-s}$ is bounded above by the number of elements of S.

    S has Dirichlet density δ when the ratio of the partial sum over S to the sum over all nonzero prime ideals, $$ \frac{\sum_{\mathfrak p \in S} \operatorname{N} \mathfrak p^{-s}} {\sum_{\mathfrak p} \operatorname{N} \mathfrak p^{-s}}, $$ tends to δ as $s \to 1^+$.

      The Dirichlet density of S as a real number, taking the junk value 0 when S has no density. As with tsum, this value only has content when S has a density; the genuine statement that S has density 0 is HasDirichletDensity S 0.
