COMMENTS

Number of primes whose binary order (A029837) is n, i.e. those with ceiling[ Log[ 2,p ] ] = n.

First differences of A007053. This sequence illustrates how far the Bertrand postulate is over satisfied.

Scaled for Ramanujan primes as in A190501, A190502.

This sequence appears complete such that any nonnegative number can be written as a sum of distinct terms of this sequence. The sequence has been checked for completeness up to the gap between 2^46 and 2^47. Assuming that after 2^46 the formula x/log(x) is a good approximation to primepi(x), it can be proved that 2*a(n) > a(n+1) for all n >= 46, which is a sufficient condition for completeness.

FORMULA

a(n)=primepi(2^n)-primepi(2^(n-1))

EXAMPLE

The 7 primes for which A029837(p)=6 are 37,41,43,47,53,59,61.

MATHEMATICA

t = Table[PrimePi[2^n], {n, 0, 20}]; Rest@t - Most@t (* Robert G. Wilson v *)

PROG

(Pari) a(n) = primepi(1<<n)-primepi(1<<(n-1))

CROSSREFS

a(n) = A095005(n)+A095006(n) = A095007(n) + A095008(n) = A095013(n) + A095014(n) = A095015(n) + A095016(n) (for n > 1) = A095021(n)+A095022(n)+A095023(n)+A095024(n) = A095019(n)+A095054(n)

= A095020(n)+A095055(n) = A095060(n)+A095061(n) = A095063(n)+A095064(n) = A095094(n)+A095095(n).
