Shevelev–Moses conjecture on merging prime-preserving sequences
Let be the lexicographically first strictly increasing sequence beginning with such that is prime if and only if is prime. For primes , write and for the sequences with initial terms and , respectively. Shevelev–Moses conjecture. For arbitrary primes , the sequences and merge, meaning that they agree from some position onward. This conjecture concerns the interaction between lexicographically first prime-preserving sequences generated from different initial primes; the source provides no resolution, so the conjecture remains open.
