Abstract
The analysis of regularities and randomness in the distribution of prime numbers remains at the research frontiers for many generations of mathematicians from different groups and topical fields. In 2019 D. Fridman et al. (Am. Math. Mon. 2019, 126:1, 70-73) have suggested the constant for generation of the complete sequence of primes with using of a recursive relation for such that the floor function , where is the nth prime. Here I present the family of constants such that the ceiling function . The proposed recursive relation generates the sequence of all known prime numbers. I also show that constants are irrational.
