&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;A key input to Zhang&#039;s proof that bounded gaps occur infinitely often is a distribution result on primes in smooth moduli, which we have called &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;MPZ[\varpi,\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (and later strengthened to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;MPZ&#039;[\varpi,\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.  These estimates are obtained as a combination of three other estimates, which we will call &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_I[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_{II}[\varpi,\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_{III}[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Definitions ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Asymptotic notation ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;x&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a parameter going off to infinity, and all quantities may depend on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;x&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; unless explicitly declared to be &amp;quot;fixed&amp;quot;. The asymptotic notation &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;O(), o(), \ll&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is then defined relative to this parameter. A quantity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;q&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is said to be &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;of polynomial size&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; if one has &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;q = O(x^{O(1)})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;bounded&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; if &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;q=O(1)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. We also write &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;X \lessapprox Y&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; for &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;X \ll x^{o(1)} Y&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle X \sim Y&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; for &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;X \ll Y \ll X&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Coefficient sequences ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We need a fixed quantity &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;A_0&amp;gt;0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A &amp;lt;B&amp;gt;coefficient sequence&amp;lt;/B&amp;gt; is a finitely supported sequence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\alpha: {\mathbf N} \rightarrow {\mathbf R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; that obeys the bounds &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle  |\alpha(n)| \ll \tau^{O(1)}(n) \log^{O(1)}(x)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\alpha&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a coefficient sequence and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;a\ (q) = a \hbox{ mod } q&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a primitive residue class, the (signed) &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;discrepancy&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Delta(\alpha; a\ (q))&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\alpha&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; in the sequence is defined to be the quantity &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle  \Delta(\alpha; a \ (q)) := \sum_{n: n = a\ (q)} \alpha(n) - \frac{1}{\phi(q)} \sum_{n: (n,q)=1} \alpha(n).&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* A coefficient sequence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\alpha&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is said to be &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;at scale &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; for some &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;N \geq 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; if it is supported on an interval of the form &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;[(1-O(\log^{-A_0} x)) N, (1+O(\log^{-A_0} x)) N]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* A coefficient sequence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\alpha&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; at scale &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is said to &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;obey the Siegel-Walfisz theorem&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; if one has &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \displaystyle  | \Delta(\alpha 1_{(\cdot,q)=1}; a\ (r)) | \ll \tau(qr)^{O(1)} N \log^{-A} x&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
for any &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;q,r \geq 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, any fixed &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and any primitive residue class &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;a\ (r)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* A coefficient sequence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\alpha&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; at scale &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is said to be &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;smooth&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; if it takes the form &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\alpha(n) = \psi(n/N)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; for some smooth function &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\psi: {\mathbf R} \rightarrow {\mathbf C}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; supported on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;[1-O(\log^{-A_0} x), 1+O(\log^{-A_0} x)]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; obeying the derivative bounds &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle  \psi^{(j)}(t) = O( \log^{j A_0} x ) &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
for all fixed &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;j \geq 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (note that the implied constant in the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;O()&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; notation may depend on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;j&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Congruence class systems ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;I \subset {\mathbf R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and let &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;{\mathcal S}_I&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; denote the square-free numbers whose prime factors lie in &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;I&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* A &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;singleton congruence class system&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;I&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a collection &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;{\mathcal C} = (\{a_q\})_{q \in {\mathcal S}_I}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of primitive residue classes &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;a_q \in ({\mathbf Z}/q{\mathbf Z})^\times&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; for each &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;q \in {\mathcal S}_I&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, obeying the Chinese remainder theorem property &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle  a_{qr}\ (qr) = (a_q\ (q)) \cap (a_r\ (r))&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
whenever &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;q,r \in {\mathcal S}_I&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are coprime. We say that such a system &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;{\mathcal C}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; has &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;controlled multiplicity&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; if the quantity&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle  \tau_{\mathcal C}(n) := |\{ q \in {\mathcal S}_I: n = a_q\ (q) \}|&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
obeys the estimate &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle  \sum_{C^{-1} x \leq n \leq Cx: n = a\ (r)} \tau_{\mathcal C}(n)^2 \ll \frac{x}{r} \tau(r)^{O(1)} \log^{O(1)} x + x^{o(1)}. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
for any fixed &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;C &amp;gt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and any congruence class &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;a\ (r)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;r \in {\mathcal S}_I&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. Here &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\tau&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the divisor function.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Smooth and densely divisible numbers ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A natural number &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;n&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is said to be &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;y&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;-smooth&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; if all of its prime factors are less than or equal to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;y&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.  We say that &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;n&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;y&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;-densely divisible&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; if, for every &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;1 \leq R \leq n&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, one can find a factor of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;n&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; in the interval &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;[y^{-1} R, R]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.  Note that &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;y&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;-smooth numbers are automatically &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;y&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;-densely divisible, but the converse is not true in general.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== MPZ ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 &amp;lt; \varpi &amp;lt; 1/4&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 &amp;lt; \delta &amp;lt; \varpi + 1/4&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; be fixed.  Let &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\Lambda&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; denote the von Mangoldt function.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* We say that the estimate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;MPZ[\varpi,\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; holds if one has the estimate&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle  \sum_{q \in {\mathcal S}_I: q&amp;lt; x^{1/2+2\varpi}} |\Delta(\Lambda 1_{[x,2x]}; a_q)| \ll x \log^{-A} x&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
for any fixed &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;A &amp;gt; 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, any &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;I \subset [1,x^\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and any congruence class system &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; (\{a_q\})_{q \in {\mathcal S}_I}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of controlled multiplicity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* We say that the estimate &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;MPZ&#039;[\varpi,\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; holds if one has the estimate&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle  \sum_{q \in {\mathcal S}_I \cap {\mathcal D}_{x^\delta}: q&amp;lt; x^{1/2+2\varpi}} |\Delta(\Lambda 1_{[x,2x]}; a_q)| \ll x \log^{-A} x&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
for any fixed &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;A &amp;gt; 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, any &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;I \subset {\mathbf R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and any congruence class system &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; (\{a_q\})_{q \in {\mathcal S}_I}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of controlled multiplicity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Type I, Type II, and Type III ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 &amp;lt; \varpi &amp;lt; 1/4&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 &amp;lt; \delta &amp;lt; 1/4+\varpi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 &amp;lt; \sigma &amp;lt; 1/2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; be fixed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* We say that &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_I[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; holds if, whenever &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; M,N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are quantities with&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle MN \sim x &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
and&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle x^{1/2-\sigma} \ll N \ll x^{1/2-2\varpi-c}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
or equivalently&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle x^{1/2+2\varpi+c} \ll M \ll x^{1/2+\sigma}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
for some fixed &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;c&amp;gt;0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\alpha,\beta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are coefficient sequences at scale &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;M,N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; respectively with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\beta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; obeying a Siegel-Walfisz theorem, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;I \subset [1,x^\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\{a_q\})_{q \in {\mathcal S}_I}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a congruence class system of controlled multiplicity, then one has&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum_{q \in {\mathcal S}_I: q &amp;lt; x^{1/2+2\varpi}} |\Delta( \alpha * \beta; a_q\ (q))| \leq x \log^{-A} x&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
for all fixed &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;A&amp;gt;0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* We say that &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_{II}[\varpi,\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; holds if, whenever &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; M,N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are quantities with&lt;br /&gt;

:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle x^{1/2} \ll M \ll x^{1/2+2\varpi+c}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
for some sufficiently small fixed &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;c&amp;gt;0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\alpha,\beta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are coefficient sequences at scale &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;M,N&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; respectively with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\beta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; obeying a Siegel-Walfisz theorem, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;I \subset [1,x^\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\{a_q\})_{q \in {\mathcal S}_I}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a congruence class system of controlled multiplicity, then one has&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum_{q \in {\mathcal S}_I: q &amp;lt; x^{1/2+2\varpi}} |\Delta( \alpha * \beta; a_q\ (q))| \leq x \log^{-A} x&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
for all fixed &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;A&amp;gt;0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* We say that &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_{III}[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; holds if, whenever &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;M,N_1,N_2,N_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are quantities with&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle MN \sim x &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle N_1N_2, N_2 N_3, N_1 N_3 \gg x^{1/2 + \sigma}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle x^{2\sigma} \ll N_1,N_2,N_3 \ll x^{1/2-\sigma},&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\alpha,\psi_1,\psi_2,\psi_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are coefficient sequences at scale &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;M,N_1,N_2,N_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; respectively with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\psi_1,\psi_2,\psi_3&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; smooth, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;I \subset [1,x^\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(\{a_q\})_{q \in {\mathcal S}_I}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is a congruence class system of controlled multiplicity, then one has&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sum_{q \in {\mathcal S}_I: q &amp;lt; x^{1/2+2\varpi}} |\Delta( \alpha * \psi_1 * \psi_2 * \psi_3; a_q\ (q))| \leq x \log^{-A} x&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
for all fixed &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;A&amp;gt;0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* We define &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type&#039;_I[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type&#039;_{II}[\varpi,\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_{III}[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; analogously to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_I[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_{II}[\varpi,\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_{III}[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; but with the hypothesis &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;I \subset [1,x^\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; replaced with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;I \subset \mathbf{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;{\mathcal S}_I&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; replaced with &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;{\mathcal S}_I \cap {\mathcal D}_{x^\delta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.  These estimates are slightly stronger than their unprimed counterparts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There should also be a second &amp;quot;double-primed&amp;quot; variant &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type&#039;&#039;_I[\varpi,\delta,\sigma], Type&#039;&#039;_{II}[\varpi,\delta], Type&#039;&#039;_{III}[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of these estimates, intermediate in strength between the primed and unprimed estimates, in which one assumes a suitable &amp;quot;double dense divisibility&amp;quot; hypothesis, which has not yet been determined precisely.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Note: thus far in the Type III analysis, the controlled multiplicity hypothesis has yet to be used.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== The combinatorial lemma ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;Combinatorial lemma&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;  Let &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 &amp;lt; \varpi &amp;lt; 1/4&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 &amp;lt; \delta &amp;lt; 1/4 + \varpi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;1/10 &amp;lt; \sigma &amp;lt; 1/2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; be fixed.&lt;br /&gt;
* If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_I[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_{II}[\varpi,\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_{III}[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; all hold, then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;MPZ[\varpi,\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; holds.&lt;br /&gt;
* Similarly, if &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type&#039;_I[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type&#039;_{II}[\varpi,\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type&#039;_{III}[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; all hold, then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;MPZ&#039;[\varpi,\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; holds.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This lemma is (somewhat implicitly) proven [http://terrytao.wordpress.com/2013/06/10/a-combinatorial-subset-sum-problem-associated-with-bounded-prime-gaps/ here].  It reduces the verification of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;MPZ[\varpi,\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;MPZ&#039;[\varpi,\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; to a comparison of the best available Type I, Type II, and Type III estimates, as well as the constraint &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sigma &amp;gt; 1/10&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Type I estimates ==&lt;br /&gt;

In all of the estimates below,  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 &amp;lt; \varpi &amp;lt; 1/4&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 &amp;lt; \delta &amp;lt; 1/4 + \varpi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sigma &amp;gt; 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are fixed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Level 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;Type I-1&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;  We have &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type&#039;_I[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (and hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_I[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) whenever&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle 11\varpi +3\delta + 2 \sigma &amp;lt; \frac{1}{4}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This result is implicitly proven [http://terrytao.wordpress.com/2013/06/12/estimation-of-the-type-i-and-type-ii-sums/ here].  (There, only &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_I[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is proven, but the method extends without difficulty to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type&#039;_I[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.)  It uses the method of Zhang, and is ultimately based on exponential sums for incomplete Kloosterman sums on smooth moduli obtained via completion of sums.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Level 2 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;Type I-2&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;  We have &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type&#039;_I[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (and hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_I[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) whenever&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle 14\varpi +4\delta + \sigma &amp;lt; \frac{1}{4}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
and&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle 20\varpi +6\delta + 3\sigma &amp;lt; \frac{1}{2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
and&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle 32\varpi +9\delta + \sigma &amp;lt; \frac{1}{2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This estimate is implicitly proven [http://terrytao.wordpress.com/2013/06/23/the-distribution-of-primes-in-densely-divisible-moduli here].  It improves upon the Level 1 estimate by using the q-van der Corput A-process in the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;d_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; direction.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Level 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;Type I-3&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;  We have &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type&#039;_I[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (and hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_I[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) whenever&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle 54\varpi + 15 \delta + 5 \sigma &amp;lt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
and&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle 32\varpi +9\delta + \sigma &amp;lt; \frac{1}{2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This estimate is tentatively established in [http://terrytao.wordpress.com/2013/06/23/the-distribution-of-primes-in-densely-divisible-moduli/#comment-236025 this comment].  It improves upon the Level 2 estimate by taking advantage of dense divisibility to optimise the direction of averaging.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Level 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By iterating the q-van der Corput A-process, one should be able to obtain &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type&#039;&#039;_I[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; assuming a constraint of the form&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle 40\varpi + C \delta + 4 \sigma &amp;lt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
for some constant C that has not yet been determined (in part because we have not yet decided what &amp;quot;doubly densely divisible&amp;quot; means); see [http://terrytao.wordpress.com/2013/06/22/bounding-short-exponential-sums-on-smooth-moduli-via-weyl-differencing/#comment-236039 this comment].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Level 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Further improvement to the (still sketchy) Level 4 estimate should be obtainable by taking advantage of averaging in auxiliary &amp;quot;h&amp;quot; parameters in order to reduce the contribution of the diagonal terms.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Type II estimates ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In all of the estimates below,  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 &amp;lt; \varpi &amp;lt; 1/4&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 &amp;lt; \delta &amp;lt; 1/4 + \varpi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are fixed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Level 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;Type II-1&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;  We have &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type&#039;_{II}[\varpi,\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (and hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_{II}[\varpi,\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) whenever&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle 58\varpi + 10\delta &amp;lt; \frac{1}{2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This estimate is implicitly proven [http://terrytao.wordpress.com/2013/06/12/estimation-of-the-type-i-and-type-ii-sums/ here]. (There, only &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_I[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is proven, but the method extends without difficulty to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type&#039;_I[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.)  It uses the method of Zhang, and is ultimately based on exponential sums for incomplete Kloosterman sums on smooth moduli obtained via completion of sums.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Level 1a ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;Type II-1a&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;  We have &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type&#039;_{II}[\varpi,\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (and hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_{II}[\varpi,\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) whenever&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle 48\varpi + 7\delta &amp;lt; \frac{1}{2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This estimate is implicitly proven [http://terrytao.wordpress.com/2013/06/23/the-distribution-of-primes-in-densely-divisible-moduli here].  It is a slight refinement of the Level 1 estimate based on a more careful inspection of the error terms in the completion of sums method.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Level 2 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In analogy with the Type I-2 estimates, one should be able to improve the Type II estimates by using the q-van der Corput process in the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;d_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; direction.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Level 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In analogy with the Type I-3 estimates, one should be able to improve the Type II estimates by using the q-van der Corput process in an optimised direction.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Level 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In analogy with the Type I-4 estimates, one should be able to improve the Type II estimates by iterating the q-van der Corput A-process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Level 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In analogy with the Type I-5 estimates, one should be able to improve the Type II estimates by taking advantage of averaging in the h parameters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Type III estimates ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In all of the estimates below,  &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 &amp;lt; \varpi &amp;lt; 1/4&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 &amp;lt; \delta &amp;lt; 1/4 + \varpi&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sigma &amp;gt; 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are fixed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Level 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;Type III-1&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;  We have &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type&#039;_{III}[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (and hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_{III}[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) whenever&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle \frac{13}{2} (\frac{1}{2} + \sigma) &amp;gt; 8 (\frac{1}{2} + 2 \varpi) + \delta &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This estimate is implicitly proven [http://terrytao.wordpress.com/2013/06/14/estimation-of-the-type-iii-sums/ here]. (There, only &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_{III}[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is proven, but the method extends without difficulty to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type&#039;_{III}[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.)  It uses the method of Zhang, using Weyl differencing and not exploiting the averaging in the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\alpha&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; or &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;q&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; parameters.  The constraint can also be written as a lower bound on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sigma&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle \sigma &amp;gt; \frac{3}{26} + \frac{32}{13} \varpi + \frac{2}{13} \delta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Level 2 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;Type III-2&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;  We have &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type&#039;_{III}[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (and hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_{III}[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) whenever&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle 1 + 5 (\frac{1}{2} + \sigma) &amp;gt; 8 (\frac{1}{2} + 2 \varpi) + \delta &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This estimate is implicitly proven [http://terrytao.wordpress.com/2013/06/23/the-distribution-of-primes-in-densely-divisible-moduli here]. It is a refinement of the Level 1 estimate that takes advantage of the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\alpha&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; averaging.  The constraint may also be written as a lower bound on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sigma&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle \sigma &amp;gt; \frac{1}{10} + \frac{16}{5} \varpi + \frac{1}{5} \delta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Level 3 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;Type III-3&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;  We have &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type&#039;_{III}[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; (and hence &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;Type_{III}[\varpi,\delta,\sigma]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) whenever&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle \frac{3}{2} (\frac{1}{2} + \sigma) &amp;gt; \frac{7}{4} (\frac{1}{2} + 2 \varpi) + \frac{3}{8} \delta &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This estimate is proven in [http://terrytao.wordpress.com/2013/06/23/the-distribution-of-primes-in-densely-divisible-moduli/#comment-236237 this comment].  It uses the newer [http://blogs.ethz.ch/kowalski/2013/06/25/a-ternary-divisor-variation method of Fouvry, Kowalski, Michel, and Nelson] that avoids Weyl differencing.  The constraint may also be written as a lower bound on &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\sigma&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\displaystyle \sigma &amp;gt; \frac{1}{12} + \frac{7}{3} \varpi + \frac{1}{4} \delta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Level 4 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It should be possible to improve upon the Level 3 estimate by exploiting averaging in the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\alpha&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; parameter (this was suggested already by Fouvry, Kowalski, Michel, and Nelson).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Level 5 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One may also hope to improve upon Level 4 estimates by exploiting Ramanujan sum cancellation (as Zhang did in his Level 1 argument).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Combinations ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By combining a Type I estimate, a Type II estimate, and a Type III estimate together one can get estimates of the form &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;MPZ[\varpi,\delta]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; or &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;MPZ[\varpi&#039;,\delta&#039;]&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; for &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\varpi,\delta&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; small enough by using the combinatorial lemma.  Here are the combinations that have been arisen so far in the Polymath8 project:&lt;br /&gt;
