COMMENT

There is always a prime between n^2 and n^3 for n > 1. For n = 2, primes 5 and 7 are between 4 and 8. For n > 2, we have the number of primes between n^2 and n^3 ~ n^3/log(n^3) - n^2/log(n^2) = n^2(2n-3)/(6log(n)) -> infinity as n -> infinity. A corollary to this is the number of primes are infinite.

PROGRAM

(PARI) /* Count primes between x^2 and x^3. */ primex2x3(m, n) = { local(x, y, c); for(x=m, n, c=0; for(y=x^2, x^3, if(ispseudoprime(y), c++) ); print(c) ) }
