In this paper, we make some conjectures on prime numbers that are sharper than those found in the current literature. First we describe our studies on Legendre's Conjecture which is still unsolved. Next, we show that Brocard's Conjecture…

Legendre's Conjecture is one of the most elegant open problems in Number Theory, which states that there is a prime between consecutive two perfect squares. In this note, we prove the conjecture holds true and also discuss the related…

Using as the working hypothesis of an evaluation of the difference between primes $p_{n+1} - p_n = O(\sqrt{p_n})$ we represent in detail the proofs of Legendre's and Oppermann's conjectures.

Legendre's conjecture states that there is a prime number between n^2 and (n+1)^2 for every positive integer n. We consider the following question : for all integer n>1 and a fixed integer k<=n does there exist a prime number such that kn <…

An interesting episode in the history of the prime number theorem concerns a formula proposed by Legendre for counting the primes below a given bound. We point out that arithmetic bias likely played an important role in arriving at that…

Legendre's conjecture states that there exists a prime between $n^2$ and $(n+1)^2$, for every positive integer $n$. Here I prove that for sufficiently large $n$, there is a prime number between $n^2$ and $(n+1)^2$. The proof relies on the…

In scientific paper, we will show a proof of Legendre's conjecture based on a scheme for finding elements of "active" set ${\rm H}_{m^{4}}$ and "critical" element $C_{m^{4}}$ for number $m^{4}$ at each $m \ge 3$.

A relationship between partial derivatives of the associated Legendre function of the first kind with respect to its degree, $[\partial P_{\nu}^{m}(z)/\partial\nu]_{\nu=n}$, and to its order, $[\partial P_{n}^{\mu}(z)/\partial\mu]_{\mu=m}$,…

The question posed in the title is answered in terms of a simple pictorial argument that is manifestly symmetric between the two functions that are Legendre transform of each other.

Motivated by two Legendre-type formulas for overpartitions, we derive a variety of their companions as Legendre theorems for overpartition pairs. This leads to equalities of subclasses of overpartitions and overpartition pairs.

Let $1\leq a<q$ be a pair of small integers such that $\gcd(a,q)=1$ and let $x>1$ be a large number. This note discusses the existence of a short sequence of primes $p\equiv a\bmod q$ between two squares $x^2$ and $(x+1)^2$.

Legendre's theorem states that every irreducible fraction $\frac{p}{q}$ which satisfies the inequality $\left |\alpha-\frac{p}{q} \right | < \frac{1}{2q^2}$ is convergent to $\alpha$. Later Barbolosi and Jager improved this theorem. In this…
