Review text

Pour une large classe de parties de \(\mathbb{N}^*\) (à laquelle appartient notamment l'ensemble qui intervient dans le problème du premier chiffre décimal) on démontre que les densités arithmétiques inférieure et supérieure, ainsi que la densité logarithmique, coïncident avec les ``densités conditionnelles correspondantes, obtenues en conditionnant par rapport à l'ensemble \(\mathbb{P}\) des nombres premiers.
