%N Bounding prime for the first k-Ramanujan prime.

%C The index A277719(n) is h(n), the prime a(n) is p_h(n). If 1 <= n <= 43 and k in [p_{h(n+1)}/p_{h(n+1)-1}, p_{h(n)}/p_{h(n)-1}), then the first k-Ramanujan prime R^{(k)}_1 = p_{h(n)}. Extra terms require improvements of prime numbers in short intervals.

%e With n = 3, we see p_h(3) = 17, p_h(4) = 29, so that 29/23 <= k < 17/13. If k = 1.3 then R^(1.3)_1 = 17 = p_h(3).

%Y Cf. A277719, A164952, A104272, A290394 (first (1 + 1/n)-Ramanujan prime).
