| In mathematics, the '''Hardy–Ramanujan theorem''', proved by {{harvtxt|Hardy|Ramanujan|1917}}, states that the [[Normal order of an arithmetic function|normal order]] of the number ω(''n'') of distinct [[prime factor]]s of a number ''n'' is log(log(''n'')). Roughly speaking, this means that most numbers have about this number of distinct prime factors.

| A more precise version states that for any real-valued function ψ(''n'') that tends to infinity as ''n'' tends to infinity
| |
| :<math>|\omega(n)-\log(\log(n))|<\psi(n)\sqrt{\log(\log(n))}</math>
| |
| or more traditionally
| |
| :<math>|\omega(n)-\log(\log(n))|<{(\log(\log(n)))}^{\frac12 +\varepsilon}</math>
| |
| for ''[[almost all]]'' (all but an infinitesimal proportion of) integers. That is, let ''g''(''x'') be the number of positive integers ''n'' less than ''x'' for which the above inequality fails: then ''g''(''x'')/''x'' converges to zero as ''x'' goes to infinity.
| |
| | |
| A simple proof to the result {{harvtxt|Turán|1934}} was given by [[Pál Turán]], who proved that
| |
| | |
| :<math>\sum_{n \le x} | \omega(n) - \log\log n|^2 \ll x \log\log x \ . </math>
| |
| | |
| The same results are true of Ω(''n''), the number of prime factors of ''n'' counted with [[Multiplicity_(mathematics)#Multiplicity_of_a_prime_factor|multiplicity]].
| |
| This theorem is generalized by the [[Erdős–Kac theorem]], which shows that ω(''n'') is essentially [[Normal distribution|normally distributed]].
