Bertrand's postulate Created 2026-10-07 Updated 2026-10-14
For every integer , there is a prime number strictly between and . This supplies cyclic prime moduli comparable to an integer interval's length in additive combinatorics.
For every , every sufficiently long integer interval has a nonconstant three-term arithmetic progression in each subset of subset density at least . This is a theorem about additive combinatorics, distinct from the Roth theorem on approximation of algebraic irrational numbers. The Roth density-increment step proves it by repeatedly increasing subset density on a shorter arithmetic progression.
