Then this equivalent statement to the RH by myself is not efficient and accurate enough. I should have said that the RH equivalent is such that n-1, n+1 and 2n-1, 2n+1, all four of those numbers are necessarily prime as n tends to infinity. An example of that is n=30 so that n-1 =29 and n+1=31, and 2n-1=60--1=59 and 2n+1= 60+1=61 are all four prime numbers. So that would be a Maximum density of primes given n goes to infinity. It is where the Infinitude of Primes proof conjoins with the Riemann Hypothesis, and the proof of this RH is simply a Indirect Method with Mathematical Induction that yields four Euclid Numbers, all four of which are necessarily prime numbers. > > Now I am curious since I define with precision the finite-number > versus the infinite-number > as the boundary at 10^500.

And Physics would define the boundary between finite number versus infinite-number and it would be the largest Planck unit which is the Coulomb Interactions in element 100 of about 10^500. But here is where mathematics has a "say at the table". Since the RH of above would have four primes at n, 2n, the question is does 10^500 plus and minus 1 yield twin primes and does 2x10^500 plus and minus 1 yield twin primes? If so, then we assuredly take 10^500 as the boundary between finite-number versus infinite-number. Or if there is another large number in the vicinity of 10^500 that yields those four primes.
