We prove that the following inequality holds for .
Let be the largest prime number among the primes smaller than or equal to . We assume that the following inequality holds.
According to Cramér's conjecture holds for , must hold when the above inequality holds. Since holds,
holds. Let . holds for . The primes between and for are as follows.
From the above, it is proved that the inequality (1) holds for . (Q.E.D.)
Second proof
According to Dusart's inequality holds for , the inequality (1) holds if the following inequalities hold.
Let be as follows.
By the inequalities described above, the inequality (1) holds if holds. The divergence rate of the first term of the above function is greater than the second one, for a certain value.
It is confirmed that holds for . The primes between and for are described above.
From the above, it is proved that the inequality (1) holds for . (Q.E.D.)
