Additive prime decomposition limitation reference

Family 013: Ostmann’s inverse Goldbach conjecture. First application triage, 9 October 2026 Australia/Brisbane.

Problem and potential new use

Additive-combinatorics researchers can flag a proposed exact sumset representation of a finite modification of the primes.

Applicability and commercial boundary

Infinite set indecomposability does not rule out approximate finite decompositions or create a fast prime generator.

Initial business decision

Research infrastructure or conditional engineering until a computable implementation, effective bounds and a recurring buyer need are demonstrated. No commercial novelty or profitability is established.

Next verification action

Construct a clear finite illustration and preserve the infinite quantifiers.

Evidence scope

The catalog statement was individually reviewed. Manuscript proof and selected formal scope comparison remain queued. No independent Lean verification was run. Source revision fd4aeeb2ee4fc729c18d98444fed42fd0529eeeb. See source metadata.
