| Firoozbakht conjecture
The Firoozbakht conjecture:
Let pk be the k-th prime, then the sequence
(pk)1/k is strictly decreasing.
Alternative formulation:
(pk)k+1 > (pk+1)k,
where pk is the k-th prime.
Here is a check of the
Firoozbakht conjecture
for pk < 1000000:
k p p1/k OK/fail Alternative formulation:
