Is there a necessary and sufficient condition for a sequence of integers b1<b2<⋯b_1<b_2<\cdots that ensures there exists a primitive sequence a1<a2<⋯a_1<a_2<\cdots (i.e. no element divides another) with an≪bna_n \ll b_n for all nn? In particular, is this always possible if there are no non-trivial solutions to (bi,bj)=bk(b_i,b_j)=b_k?
