Overview

The public revision proves prime-gap bounds of 246 assuming Bombieri–Vinogradov and includes numerical certificates. It does not contain the 212 formalization reported in the later paper.

Public formal source; build and independent mathematical review are separate checks.

Source assessment

Proved

Formal deduction from Bombieri–Vinogradov

The implication to the 246 bound, not a Lean proof of its analytic premise.

Lean: 246 from Bombieri–Vinogradov ↗

Complete formal proof reported externally

Complete as an implication with the stated premise. This is the public 246 artifact, not the later reported 212 certificate.
