On a sequence involving sums of primes (1207.7059v7)
Published 30 Jul 2012 in math.NT and math.CO
Abstract: For $n=1,2,3,\ldots$ let $S_n$ be the sum of the first $n$ primes. We mainly show that the sequence $a_n=\root n\of{S_n/n}\ (n=1,2,3,\ldots)$ is strictly decreasing, and moreover the sequence $a_{n+1}/a_n\ (n=10,11,\ldots)$ is strictly increasing. We also formulate similar conjectures involving twin primes or partitions of integers.
