mentioning that $p$ itself should be small.

Feb 3 at 4:11 | comment | added | Daniel Weber | We have $\Psi(x, \log^2 x) = x^{\frac12 + o(1)}$, which is also the number of values of $p^a + 1 \leq x$ for even $a$, so heuristically by the birthday paradox we should expect to find a collision around this $\log^2 x$. For $10^{62}$ this is around 20500. I don't have any idea how we could locate this collision, though | |
Feb 3 at 4:04 | comment | added | Daniel Weber | If we look at $p^a + 1 = p_1^{a_1} p_2^{a_2} \cdots$ then from the abc conjecture we should have $p^{a-1} \lesssim p_1 p_2 \cdots$, and additionally it can't contain any primes which are $3 \pmod 4$, so you get a lower bound of about 317. | |
