How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T14339384 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

-
A.
Linnik’s theorem on the least prime in an arithmetic progression
Linnik’s theorem on the least prime in an arithmetic progression is a result in analytic number theory that gives an explicit upper bound, depending only on the modulus, for the size of the smallest prime in any given coprime residue class.
-
B.
Legendre’s conjecture on primes between consecutive squares
Legendre’s conjecture on primes between consecutive squares is an unproven statement in number theory asserting that there is always at least one prime number between any two consecutive perfect squares.
-
C.
Piatetski-Shapiro prime number theorem
The Piatetski-Shapiro prime number theorem is a result in analytic number theory that establishes the existence of infinitely many primes among the values of certain non-integer power sequences, such as ⌊n^c⌋ for suitable real exponents c.
-
D.
Green–Tao theorem
The Green–Tao theorem is a landmark result in number theory proving that the sequence of prime numbers contains arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions.
-
E.
Vinogradov's three-primes theorem
Vinogradov's three-primes theorem is a landmark result in analytic number theory proving that every sufficiently large odd integer can be expressed as the sum of three prime numbers.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
