On the number of prime numbers between $n^2$ and ${(n+1)}^2$
Abstract
Let , based on a sequence , we compare the density of coprime numbers and establish a correlation between the proportions of coprime numbers in the ranges from 1 to consecutive square numbers. Then, we derive the relationship between the number of coprimes in the interval of and the proportion of coprimes in the interval of , proving that there is at least one prime number between any and . By extending our research to the range of , we establish the relationship between the proportions of backwards coprime numbers in the ranges from to consecutive square numbers; furthermore, we establish a relationship between the proportions of coprimes in small interval and the whole interval. Then, in conclusion, the number of coprimes between and is greater than , thus proving that there are at least 2 prime numbers between and .
