Normalized version of the number-of-distinct-prime-factors function: $(\nu(x) - \log\log n) / \sqrt{\log\log n}$. This is the standardization that should converge in distribution to a standard normal.
Instances For
Empirical density at level $t$: the fraction of integers in $[1,n]$ whose normalized omega is at least $t$. The Erdős–Kac theorem describes its limit as $n \to \infty$.
Instances For
The standard Gaussian upper-tail probability $\Pr(Z \ge t)$ for $Z \sim \mathcal{N}(0,1)$.
Instances For
The $k$-th empirical moment of normalizedOmega n · averaged uniformly over
$x \in [1,n]$.
Instances For
The $k$-th moment of the standard normal distribution $\mathbb{E}[Z^k]$ for $Z \sim \mathcal{N}(0,1)$.
Instances For
Central limit theorem for sums of independent Bernoulli variables with variances summing to infinity: the standardized partial sums converge in distribution to a standard normal.
Coupling step: for each $k$, the empirical $k$-th moment of normalizedOmega n ·
differs from a moment of an independent-Bernoulli model b n by an error vanishing as
$n \to \infty$, where b n tends to the standard normal $k$-th moment.
Method of moments: if the empirical moments converge to the standard normal moments
in every order, then the empirical tail densities erdosKacDensity n t converge to
$\Pr(Z \ge t)$.
For every $k$, the $k$-th empirical moment of normalizedOmega n · converges to the
$k$-th moment of the standard normal, obtained by combining the Bernoulli-model coupling
with the CLT moment limit.
Theorem 4.5.3 (Erdős–Kac 1940). For every $t \in \mathbb{R}$, $$\frac{\#\{x \le n : (\nu(x) - \log\log n)/\sqrt{\log\log n} \ge t\}}{n} \to \Pr(Z \ge t)$$ as $n \to \infty$, where $Z \sim \mathcal{N}(0,1)$.
