Questions where prime numbers play a key-role, such as: questions on the distribution of prime numbers (twin primes, gaps between primes, Hardy–Littlewood conjectures, etc); questions on prime numbers with special properties (Wieferich prime, Wolstenholme prime, etc.). This tag is often used as a specialized tag in combination with the top-level tag nt.number-theory and (if applicable) analytic-number-theory.

Is $P_{2n} \ge 2P_n$ and $\pi(2x) \le 2\pi(x)$ inconsistent to the Prime k-tuple conjecture?
I posed a conjecture as follows that is a special case of Second Hardy–Littlewood conjecture:
For $n, x \ge 2$ be two integers then:
$$P_{2n} \ge 2P_n$$
and
$$\pi(2x) \le 2\pi( …

Is there a constant $\alpha$ such that: $P_{n+1} < P_n.\left(\frac{n+1}{n}\right)^\alpha$?
Is there a constant $\alpha$ such that:
$$P_{n+1} < P_n \cdot \left(\frac{n+1}{n}\right)^\alpha$$
Or
$$\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{\ln\frac{P_{n+1}}{P_n}}{\ln\frac{n+1}{n}} < +\infty$$

Let $X$ be a positive integer. Then $\pi{(X+\ln^2{X})}-\pi{(X-\ln^2{X})}>\ln{X}$?
The prime-counting function is the function counting the number of prime numbers less than or equal to some real number $x$. It is denoted by $\pi{(x)}$. Using my computer I found that for any posit …

Prove: If $P_n$ is $n$-$th$ prime number then $P_{n+m} \ge P_n+P_m$
Let $n > 1$ and $m > 0$ be two integers and $P_n$ be the $n^{th}$ prime.
Prove: $$P_{n+m} \ge P_n + P_m .$$
Can you give a hint, reference, comment, or proof?

Is every odd positive integer of the form $P_{n+m}-P_n-P_m$?
I am looking for a comment, reference, remark, or proof of three conjectures as follows:
Conjecture 1: Let $x$ be an odd positive integer. Then there exist two integers $n, m \ge 2$ so that $$x=P_{ …

$\pi((n+1)^2)-\pi(n^2) \le \pi(n)$ for all $n \ge 370$?
There are some conjectures of the form: There always exist at least $X$ prime numbers between $A$ and $B$. Examples:
Bertrand's postulate: for every $n>1$ there is always at least one prime $p$ such …

The number of continuously increasing primes gaps in the interval $[2,n]$ is less than $\log n$
A prime gap is the difference between two successive prime numbers. The $n$-th prime gap, denoted $g_n$ or $g(p_n)$ is the difference between the $(n+1)$-st and the $n$-th prime numbers. Using my comp …

Probability of finding a prime number between $x-\ln(x)$ and $x+\ln(x)$
Using my computer, I found that in the interval $[1, N]$ the probability of finding a prime number between $x-\ln(x)$ and $x+\ln(x)$ is greater than constant $c$ where $N=10^2, 10^3,...,10^{9}$, $x$ …
