logarithmic density
For any we denote . The values
are called lower and upper logarithmic density of . If we denote this value by and call it the logarithmic density of .
Logarithmic density can be equivalently defined as follows: If the limit
exists, then it is called logarithmic density of .
By the well-known formula defining Euler’s constant, we can see that the denominator in the above definitions can be replaced by .
