On the Density of Prime Imbalances in the Unit Interval

Abstract

We prove that the set of normalized differences between primes, defined as S = \(p-q)/(p+q) : p > q are primes\, is dense in the open unit interval (0,1). Our proof provides an explicit construction algorithm with quantitative bounds, relying on elementary results from prime number theory including Bertrand's postulate and explicit bounds on prime gaps in long intervals.
