COMMENTS

It is conjectured that primepi(a(n)) <= 7*n for all n. - T. D. Noe, Aug 26 2011

Subsequence of the Ramanujan primes A104272, by the minimality of a(n). - Jonathan Sondow, Aug 21 2012

Paksoy (2012) denotes a(n) by R'_n and calls it "the n-th derived Ramanujan prime." He proves the bounds on R'_n below. - Jonathan Sondow, Oct 29 2012

FORMULA

R(2n) <= a(n) < R(3n), where R(n) = the n-th Ramanujan prime (Paksoy 2012).

p(4n) < a(n) < p(9n), where p(n) = the n-th prime (Paksoy 2012).

a(n) < p(8n) for n >= 5315 (Paksoy 2012).

R(2n) ~ a(n) ~ p(4n) as n -> oo (Paksoy 2012).
