The set of prime numbers: Multifractals and multiscale analysis

Author

Listed:
  • Iovane, Gerardo

Abstract

In this work we show that the prime numbers can be seen as the sides or angles of a multifractal polygon based on a hexagon. This also means that primes follow a multiscale distribution and can be generated in a beautiful deterministic fashion.
