I'm curious to know if are in the literature analogous conjectures to the conjecture due to Mandl, I ask about these analogous conjectures for different sequences playing an important role in number theory, I evoke sequences closely related to prime numbers. You can see the conjecture due to Mandl for prime numbers from [1] or from the the first paragraph of [2] in page 1.
[EDIT: an inequality conjectured by Mandl asserts that
$$ \frac{np_n}{2} - \sum_{k \leq n} p_k \geq 0 $$ for every $n \geq 9$.]
Question. Do you know from the literature other similar/analogous conjectures to Mandl's conjecture for the comparison of the $n-th$ term of a number theoretic sequence $a_k$ and the summation $\sum_{1\leq k\leq n}a_k$? I am asking about arithmetic functions with a good mathematical content or playing an important role in theory and distribution of prime numbers, I evoke maybe Ramanujan primes, or maybe the sequence of square-free integers, or the sequence of powers of prime numbers,... I don't know. If you know it add the references for those works and I try to search in read these from the literature. In other case, can you illustrate how to get a conjecture similar to Mandl's conjecture for an interesting number theoretic sequence? Many thanks.
I think that Abel's identity should be an important tool to research candidates for conjectures. I would like to know how to do it in a professional way.
