Abstract

We establish the main saturation conjecture connected with executing a Brun sieve in the setting of an orbit of a group of affine linear transformations. This is carried out under the condition that the Zariski closure of the group is Levi-semisimple. It is likely that this condition is also necessary for such saturation to hold.
