Elliott–Halberstam conjecture

In number theory, the Elliott–Halberstam conjecture is a conjecture about the distribution of prime numbers in arithmetic progressions. It has many applications in sieve theory. It is named for Peter D. T. A. Elliott and Heini Halberstam, who stated a specific version of the conjecture in 1968.

Original conjecture
The original Elliott-Halberstam conjecture is not clearly stated in their paper, but can be inferred there from (1) page 59 and the comment above the Theorem on page 62. It says that :\sum_{q\le x}\varphi(q)\max_{(h,q)=1} \left(\pi(x,q,h)-\frac{\operatorname{li}x}{\varphi(q)}\right)^2\ll\frac{x^2}{\log^Ax} provided X, where \operatorname{li} x denotes the logarithmic integral and \varphi the Euler function. ==See also==
