Abstract
In this chapter, we first present the Selberg sieve in a fashion similar to what we did up to now. In passing, we shall extend the Selberg sieve to the case of non-squarefree sifting sets, as was already done in (Selberg, 1976), but our setting will also carry through to sieving sequences and not only sets. Furthermore, this setting will enable us to compare the three different approaches: via the large sieve inequality, via local models or via the Selberg sieve.
