Folklore equality conjecture for the maximal prime gap constant
Let be the th prime, let be the Euler–Mascheroni constant, and let be the function defined in the source. The source establishes the relation
Folklore equality conjecture. The inequality is in fact an equality:
This would identify the maximal-gap constant, whereas the source notes that Siegel zeros would instead imply and hence a divergent limsup; the equality remains unresolved in the source.
