Jonathan Sondow, Feb 27 2005

Referring to his proof of Bertrand's postulate, Ramanujan (1919) states a generalization: "From this we easily deduce that pi(x) - pi(x/2) >= 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ..., if x >= 2, 11, 17, 29, 41, ..., respectively." Since the a(n) are prime (by their minimality), I call them "Ramanujan primes."
See the additional references and links mentioned in A143227.
2n log 2n < a(n) < 4n log 4n for n >= 1, and prime(2n) < a(n) < prime(4n) if n > 1. Also, a(n) ~ prime(2n) as n -> infinity.
Shanta Laishram has proved that a(n) < prime(3n) for all n >= 1.
a(n) - 3n log 3n is sometimes positive, but negative with increasing frequency as n grows since a(n) ~ 2n log 2n. There should be a constant m such that for n >= m we have a(n) < 3n log 3n.
A good approximation to a(n) = R_n for n in [1..1000] is A162996(n) = round(k*n * (log(k*n)+1)), with k = 2.216 determined empirically from the first 1000 Ramanujan primes, which approximates the {k*n}-th prime number which in turn approximates the n-th Ramanujan prime and where abs(A162996(n) - R_n) < 2 * sqrt(A162996(n)) for n in [1..1000]. Since R_n ~ prime(2n) ~ 2n * (log(2n)+1) ~ 2n * log(2n), while A162996(n) ~ prime(k*n) ~ k*n * (log(k*n)+1) ~ k*n * log(k*n), A162996(n) / R_n ~ k/2 = 2.216/2 = 1.108 which implies an asymptotic overestimate of about 10% (a better approximation would need k to depend on n and be asymptotic to 2). - Daniel Forgues, Jul 29 2009
Let p_n be the n-th prime. If p_n >= 3 is in the sequence, then all integers (p_n+1)/2, (p_n+3)/2, ..., (p_(n+1)-1)/2 are composite numbers. - Vladimir Shevelev, Aug 12 2009
Denote by q(n) the prime which is the nearest from the right to a(n)/2. Then there exists a prime between a(n) and 2q(n). Converse, generally speaking, is not true, i.e., there exist primes outside the sequence, but possess such property (e.g., 109). - Vladimir Shevelev, Aug 14 2009
The Mathematica program FasterRamanujanPrimeList uses Laishram's result that a(n) < prime(3n).
See sequence A164952 for a generalization we call a Ramanujan k-prime. - Vladimir Shevelev, Sep 01 2009
From Jonathan Sondow, May 22 2010: (Start)
About 46% of primes < 19000 are Ramanujan primes. About 78% of the lesser of twin primes < 19000 are Ramanujan primes.
About 15% of primes < 19000 are the lesser of twin primes. About 26% of Ramanujan primes < 19000 are the lesser of twin primes.
A reason for the jumps is in Section 7 of "Ramanujan primes and Bertrand's postulate" and in Section 4 of "Ramanujan Primes: Bounds, Runs, Twins, and Gaps". (See the arXiv link for a corrected version of Table 1.)
See Shapiro 2008 for an exposition of Ramanujan's proof of his generalization of Bertrand's postulate. (End)

a(n) = R_n = R_{0.5,n} in "Generalized Ramanujan Primes."
All Ramanujan primes are in A164368. - Vladimir Shevelev, Aug 30 2011
If n tends to infinity, then limsup(a(n) - A080359(n-1)) = infinity; conjecture: also limsup(a(n) - A080359(n)) = infinity (cf. A182366). - Vladimir Shevelev, Apr 27 2012
Or the largest prime x such that the number of primes in (x/2,x] equals n. This equivalent definition underlines an important analogy between Ramanujan and Labos primes (cf. A080359). - Vladimir Shevelev, Apr 29 2012
Research questions on R_n - prime(2n) are at A233739, and on n-Ramanujan primes at A225907. - Jonathan Sondow, Dec 16 2013
The questions on R_n - prime(2n) in A233739 have been answered by Christian Axler in "On generalized Ramanujan primes". - Jonathan Sondow, Feb 13 2014
Srinivasan's Lemma (2014): prime(k-n) < prime(k)/2 if R_n = prime(k) and n > 1. Proof: By the minimality of R_n, the interval (prime(k)/2,prime(k)] contains exactly n primes and so prime(k-n) < prime(k)/2. - Jonathan Sondow, May 10 2014
For some n and k, we see that A168421(k) = a(n) so as to form a chain of primes similar to a Cunningham chain. For example (and the first example), A168421(2) = 7, links a(2) = 11 = A168421(3), links a(3) = 17 = A168421(4), links a(4) = 29 = A168421(6), links a(6) = 47. Note that the links do not have to be of a form like q = 2*p+1 or q = 2*p-1. - John W. Nicholson, Feb 22 2015
Extending Sondow's 2010 comments: About 48% of primes < 10^9 are Ramanujan primes. About 76% of the lesser of twin primes < 10^9 are Ramanujan primes. - Dana Jacobsen, Sep 06 2015
Sondow, Nicholson, and Noe's 2011 conjecture that pi(R_{m*n}) <= m*pi(R_n) for m >= 1 and n >= N_m (see A190413, A190414) was proved for n > 10^300 by Shichun Yang and Alain Togbé in 2015. - Jonathan Sondow, Dec 01 2015
Berliner, Dean, Hook, Marr, Mbirika, and McBee (2016) prove in Theorem 18 that the graph K_{m,n} is prime for n >= R_{m-1}-m; see A291465. - Jonathan Sondow, May 21 2017
Okhotin (2012) uses Ramanujan primes to prove Lemma 8 in "Unambiguous finite automata over a unary alphabet." - Jonathan Sondow, May 30 2017
Sepulcre and Vidal (2016) apply Ramanujan primes in Remark 9 of "On the non-isolation of the real projections of the zeros of exponential polynomials." - Jonathan Sondow, May 30 2017
Axler and Leßmann (2017) compute the first k-Ramanujan prime for k >= 1 + epsilon; see A277718, A277719, A290394. - Jonathan Sondow, Jul 30 2017

			a(1) = 2 is Bertrand's postulate: pi(x) - pi(x/2) >= 1 for all x >= 2.
a(2) = 11 because a(2) < 8 log 8 < 17 and pi(n) - pi(n/2) > 1 for n = 16, 15, ..., 11 but pi(10) - pi(5) = 1.
Consider a(9)=71. Then the nearest prime > 71/2 is 37, and between a(9) and 2*37, that is, between 71 and 74, there exists a prime (73). - _Vladimir Shevelev_, Aug 14 2009 [corrected by _Jonathan Sondow_, Jun 17 2013]

a(n) is the same as: Smallest integer x > 0 such that the number of unitary-prime-divisors of x! equals n.
Let p_n be the n-th prime. If p_n>3 is in the sequence, then all integers (p_n-1)/2, (p_n-3)/2, ..., (p_(n-1)+1)/2 are composite numbers. - Vladimir Shevelev, Aug 12 2009
For n >= 3, denote by q(n) the prime which is the nearest from the left to a(n)/2. Then there exists a prime between 2q(n) and a(n). The converse, generally speaking, is not true; i.e., there exist primes that are outside the sequence, but possess such property (e.g., 131). - Vladimir Shevelev, Aug 14 2009
See sequence A164958 for a generalization. - Vladimir Shevelev, Sep 02 2009
a(n) is the n-th Labos prime.

			n=5: in 31! five unitary-prime-divisors appear (firstly): {17,19,23,29,31}, while other primes {2,3,5,7,11,13} are at least squared. Thus a(5)=31.
Consider a(9)=71. Then the nearest prime < 71/2 is q(9)=31, and between 2q(9) and a(9), i.e., between 62 and 71 there exists a prime (67). - _Vladimir Shevelev_, Aug 14 2009

Also, the number of unitary prime divisors of n!. A prime divisor of n is unitary iff its exponent is 1 in the prime power factorization of n. In general, gcd(p, n/p) = 1 or p. Here we count the cases when gcd(p, n/p) = 1.
A unitary prime divisor of n! is >= n/2, hence their number is pi(n) - pi(n/2). - Peter Luschny, Mar 13 2011

From Robert G. Wilson v, Mar 20 2017: (Start)
First occurrence of k is at n = A080359(k).
The last occurrence of k is at n = A080360(k).
The number of times k appears is A080362(k). (End)
Lev Schnirelmann proved that for every n, a(n) > (1/log_2(n))*(n/3 - 4*sqrt(n)) - 1 - (3/2)*log_2(n). - Arkadiusz Wesolowski, Nov 03 2017

			10! = 2^8 * 3^2 * 5^2 * 7. The only unitary prime divisor is 7, so a(10) = 1.
