The x/ln⁡(x)x/\ln (x) approximation yields an estimated count of 3.1 trillion primes below 100 trillion. Compared to the actual count of 3.2 trillion, this is over 99.99% accurate.

Conditions: x=100x = 100,000,000,000,000.; The formula used is #primes(x) ~ x/ln⁡(x)x/\ln (x).

The initial state vector S0S_0 is a column vector that encodes the starting probabilities of the Markov chain. In this specific example, S0=(1,0)TS_0 = (1, 0)^T, meaning the system starts in state A with probability 1 and in state B with probability 0.

Conditions: The system has two states, A and B.; The components are ordered consistently with the states, here A then B.; The entries are probabilities describing the initial distribution.

Understand why

↗

The state prices ψj\psi_j represent the prices of Arrow-Debreu securities, which are monetary values and do not necessarily sum to 1. The transformed vector qjq_j represents risk-neutral probabilities, obtained by multiplying each state price by the gross risk-free factor (1+i)(1+i).

Conditions: The market is a one-period finite-state model.; ψj\psi_j are the solved state prices (Arrow-Debreu security prices).; ii is the per-period risk-free interest rate.; qjq_j is defined as qj=(1+i)ψjq_j = (1+i)\psi_j.

No, S0=(1,0)TS_0 = (1,0)^T is not the only possible initial state. It is an asserted initial condition for this specific example.

Conditions: The system is a Markov chain with states A and B.; The entries of the initial state vector are probabilities.; The sum of the probabilities in the initial state vector must equal 1.
