Legendre's conjecture on primes between consecutive squares

Let nn be a positive integer.

Legendre's conjecture. There always exist at least two prime numbers between n2n^2 and (n+1)2(n+1)^2.

The paper notes that its main result implies this conjecture for all sufficiently large nn, leaving the assertion for every n1n\geq 1 as the remaining question.
