Is it possible to show that :for $n \geq 1:\sigma(n!-1) $ never be prime and why $\sigma(n!-...
However, proving this statement is either easy, because some factorization or congruence argument works, or almost impossible. …

How much space between these smooth numbers?
The local behaviour of smooth numbers is extremely difficult.
If $p\equiv 3\pmod{4}$ is prime, and $n$ is the least quadratic non-residue modulo $p$, then all integers with prime factors $<n$ are squ …

Is there a "small $\omega$" number theorem?
The integers in the interval $[n, n+D]$ have level of distribution close to $D$, hence you can apply a lower bound sieve (e.g. http://www.math.uiuc.edu/~ford/sieve_notes_intro_brun_hooley.pdf, Theorem …
