Conjecture - no natural number $k$ exists such that:
$P$ is the sequence of all primes starting from the $k$th prime
$A$ is a sequence of natural numbers such that:
$\forall n : A_n<P_n<A_{n+1}$
$\forall n : F(A_n) \leq F(A_{n+1})$, where $F(x)$ is the number of primes in the factorization of $x$
Take $k=3$ for example:
- $P=5,7,11,13,17,19,\dots$
- Here, because of $11$ and $13$, we must use $12 \in A$
- Then, because $F(12)=3$, we must use $16 \in A$
- Then, because of $17$ and $19$, we must use $18 \in A$
- But $F(18)<F(16)$, so we are unable to define $A$
How can I go about proving this conjecture?
The only lead I have on it, is that the sequence $A$ must include the "mid value" of every pair of twin primes (starting from the $k$th prime).
Thanks
As a side note, I should mention that the motivation behind this, is an interest in finding a general definition for a sequence of natural numbers, such that between every two consecutive elements there exists exactly one prime number. So any insights or notions on this issue will also be appreciated...
