| ## Scope | |
| Let $P^+(n)$ be the largest prime factor of $n$. The formalization proves the joint Dickman law in ordinary natural density: for every $0<a,b<1$, the density of integers satisfying $P^+(n)\le n^a$ and $P^+(n+1)\le n^b$ tends to $\rho(1/a)\rho(1/b)$, where $\rho$ is the Dickman function. | |
| It also proves that each of the orderings $P^+(n)<P^+(n+1)$ and $P^+(n+1)<P^+(n)$ has natural density $1/2$. | |
