Abstract

Let k2k\geq 2 be a fixed natural number. We establish the existence of infinitely many pairs of consecutive primes pnp_n, pn+1p_{n+1} satisfying pn+1pnclogpnlog2pnlog4pnlog3pn, p_{n+1}-p_n\geq c\:\frac{\log p_n\: \log_2 p_n\: \log_4 p_n}{\log_3 p_n}\:, with cc being a fixed positive constant, for which the interval (pn,pn+1)(p_n, p_{n+1}) contains the kk-th power of a prime number.
