Prime Gaps at Most 186
Assuming three explicit input statements, the project proves DHL[40,2]: every admissible 40-tuple contains at least two primes infinitely often after translation. An explicit admissible 40-tuple of diameter 186 then gives
n→∞liminf(pn+1−pn)≤186.
The Lean proof of the implication from the three inputs to the final theorem is kernel-checked. Two inputs are Kloosterman-type estimates cited to Katz/Deligne and Fouvry--Kowalski--Michel; the third consists of finitely many numerical integral and cap inequalities backed by a Python/FLINT certificate.
