Collatz Conjecture: Analysis of Binary Structure and Trajectory Behavior
A. A. Durmagambetov
,A. A. Durmagambetova
We develop an exact "mantissa" formalism for the binary expansions of natural numbers, in which the gap structure between consecutive ones is encoded by a sequence of fractional parts \(\sigma_j\in(0,1]\). Within this formalism we prove a sharp threshold dichotomy: the next binary gap equals 1 precisely when \(\sigma_j\le \kappa\), where \(\kappa=2-\log_2 3\approx 0.41504\). For \(M=3^n\) we obtain rigorous consequences: an exact characterization of the leading run of ones in terms of \(\{n\log_2 3\}\), whence, by Weyl equidistribution, the asymptotic density of \(n\) whose expansion begins with \(m\) ones equals \(-\log_2(1 - 2^{-m})\), and, by effective bounds for linear forms in logarithms, the leading run has length \(O(\log n)\); and a proof that the trailing run of ones always has length 1 or 2. On the trajectory side, we give an exact decomposition of Collatz iterations, a lemma describing precisely how a block of trailing ones is consumed, and a conditional contraction criterion: if the total 2-adic valuation accumulated along \(M\) odd steps satisfies \(Q_M\ge\beta M\) with \(\beta>\log_2 3\), the trajectory contracts at an explicit exponential rate; conversely, any divergent trajectory must keep \(Q_M\) below \(M\log_2 3+\log_2 X_0\) for every \(M\). The heuristic self-correcting dynamics of the mantissas, together with computations up to \(n=5000\) and valuation statistics over 2000 random trajectories, supports the conjecture that the density of ones in the binary expansion of \(3^n\) tends to \(1/2\); we state this precisely as a conjecture and delimit exactly which steps remain open. We then prove the average-case form of the density statement: for every fixed \(j\ge3\) the \(j\)-th low-order bit of \(3^n\) equals 1 for exactly half of the exponents \(n\) in each period \(2^{j-1}\) (the exceptional positions \(j=0,1,2\) balance to the same mean, so the lowest \(J\) bits carry exactly \(J/2\) ones on average), and the bit at fixed offset \(j\) from the top carries ones with density \(\mu_j\to1/2\) at rate \(2^{-j}\), with \(\mu_1=\kappa\). Thus the outer \(O(\log n)\) digits provably obey the density-\(1/2\) law, and the conjecture is reduced to the middle range of the expansion. We further determine the dispersion and the full asymptotic law of the digit counts in these windows: in the low window the numbers of zeros and of ones each follow an exactly binomial law \(1+\mathrm{Bin}(J-2,\tfrac12)\) over every period—mean \(J/2\), variance \((J-2)/4\), Hoeffding tails, Gaussian local limit—while in the top window the variance equals \(W/4-c_*+O(W2^{-W})\) with \(c_*=0.2399227044\ldots\), and the normalized count of zeros satisfies a central limit theorem. Finally, we identify the natural invariant measure of the gap dynamics itself: in tail coordinates the dynamics is an induced binary shift preserving Lebesgue measure (invariant \(\sigma\)-density \(2^{1-\sigma}\ln2\)), under which the gaps are i.i.d. geometric \(\tfrac12\); for almost every mantissa the density of zeros is \(1/2\) with Gaussian fluctuations of variance \(D/4\), and the density conjecture becomes precisely the assertion that the mantissas of \(3^n\) are typical for this measure—a statement strongly supported by the data (Kolmogorov–Smirnov distance 0.0116 at \(n=2000\)). Moreover, we prove that at every fixed depth \(j\) the interior mantissa \(\sigma_j\) is equidistributed over \(n\), with its law converging to the invariant law at the exponential rate \(2^{-j}/\ln2\); that the gaps decorrelate over \(n\) \((|\operatorname{Cov}(\delta_i,\delta_j)|\le36\cdot2^{-|j-i|})\); and that, consequently, for all \(n\) outside a set of density \(O(1/(\eta^2K))\) the leading segment spanned by the first \(K\) gaps has density of ones within \(\eta\) of \(1/2\). This yields the density conjecture as an asymptotic law on the outer ranges: with windows \(J(n),K(n)\to\infty\) of logarithmic length at both ends of the expansion, the set of \(n\) whose outer segments have ones-density \(\tfrac12+O(\eta)\) has natural density 1. The genuinely open regime is thereby isolated as depths growing linearly with \(n\)—a barrier of the same nature as the classical \(\times2,\times3\) rigidity problems.

Finite-Window Noncovering on Primorial Wheels: Higher-Order CRT Bounds and Shift Correlations
Tien Tuan Khiem Nguyen
Let \(C=ap_k^\#\) and consider symmetric offsets \(\{C-d,C+d\}\) under the sieve of Eratosthenes. Small primes generate a primorial wheel, while each later prime forbids one or two lift residues. The full Chinese remainder theorem (CRT) pattern has positive density, but a fixed center supplies only a translated fragment. We characterize terminal survivors as the disjoint union of a conservative avoiding set and explicit endpoint-prime exceptions, obtaining an exact unequal-prime-pair count and \(R_G(2C)\geq\max\{0,|U(C)|-1\}\). We derive arbitrary-order finite-phase CRT intersection formulas and odd Bonferroni lower bounds. The third-order bound gives \(|U(86)|\geq3\) and \(|U(128)|\geq2\), whereas first-moment, spanning-tree, and complete-block bounds are nonpositive; the latter certificate guarantees a prime-pair representation. We also express the survivor count as a shift-aware cyclic Fourier correlation, factor the pattern transform locally, and obtain computable spectral bounds. For a fixed wheel, \(\log P\sim\sqrt{2ap_k^\#}\), so the complete-block condition is asymptotically too restrictive. Exact-integer computations reproduce all finite cases. The results isolate the finite-window obstruction but prove neither an unconditional Goldbach theorem nor a new infinite prime-pair family.
