Theoretical corrections: Non-Autonomous Systems, Ergodicity, and the Twin Prime Conjecture.
Non-Autonomous Dynamics
The standard Logistic Map is autonomous—its rules don't change over time. However, prime density decays as 1/ln(N). To model this, we introduced a parameter drift:
This "Quenched Chaos" model better captures the asymptotic behavior of primes, explaining the discrepancies found in Phase 2.
Ergodicity & Twin Primes
If the isomorphism holds, the Twin Prime Conjecture becomes a question of Ergodicity.
Twin Primes (gap=2) correspond to a specific symbol pattern (e.g., "LL") in the dynamical system.
In an ergodic chaotic system, every finite admissible pattern must appear infinitely many times.
Therefore, if the system is ergodic at the band-merging point, Twin Primes must be infinite.
Future Horizons
The generative perspective—viewing primes as trajectories of a dynamical system—opens new pathways to some of the deepest problems in mathematics and physics.
Riemann Hypothesis & Quantum Chaos
The Berry-Keating Conjecture suggests that the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann Zeta function correspond to the energy levels of a quantum chaotic system. Our model provides a concrete candidate for the classical limit of this system.
"If the prime distribution is the trajectory of a low-dimensional chaotic attractor, then the Zeta zeros are its spectral resonances."
Future Work: Investigate the spectral statistics of the "Sieve Operator" defined in our paper. Does the spacing of its eigenvalues follow the GUE (Gaussian Unitary Ensemble) distribution characteristic of quantum chaos?
Goldbach's Conjecture as Mixing
Goldbach's Conjecture (every even integer > 2 is the sum of two primes) can be reframed as a problem of Topological Mixing. If we view the prime sequence as a chaotic orbit O, the conjecture asks about the properties of the convolution O∗O.
Hypothesis: In a strongly mixing chaotic system, the sum of two independent trajectories should cover the entire state space (all even numbers) with a predictable density.
Future Work: Apply the "Circle Method" from analytic number theory directly to the invariant measure of the Logistic attractor.
Active Emergence vs. Passive Sieving
Traditional sieves are "subtractive" (removing composites). Our dynamical model suggests an "additive" or Generative perspective: primes might be the "constructive interference patterns" of a fundamental wave equation.
This parallels Turing's Morphogenesis in biology, where complex patterns (spots, stripes) emerge from simple reaction-diffusion equations.
Future Work: Can we write down a "Reaction-Diffusion Equation for Primes" where the stable solitons correspond to prime numbers?
