In fact the conjecture follows from Andrica's conjecture. Harald Cramér conjectured that the gap is always much smaller, O(log2p); if Cramér's conjecture is true, Legendre's conjecture would follow. Cramér also proved that the Riemann hypothesis implies a weaker bound of (O sqrt p log p) on the size of the largest prime gaps. Legendre's conjecture implies that at least one prime can be found in every revolution of the Ulam spiral. --- end quote --- So I am under quite a pretty turn of events. There is a good possibility that the correct proof of the Infinitude of Primes Indirect Method, not only proves the Twin Primes and Polignac conjectures, but also the Mersenne primes infinity and Legendre primes but also and hopefully the Cramer conjecture and finally the Riemann Hypothesis. Who would have thought that? Noone in their wildest dreams would have thought that a tiny mistake in Euclid's IP proof Indirect was the key to solving the Riemann Hypothesis. It would go to show that some tiny mistake in mathematics can delay the progress of the subject for milleniums because the proof of Infinitude of Twin Primes cannot be obtained, nor the proof of the Riemann Hypothesis cannot be obtained unless we have a full and correct Euclid Infinitude of Primes Indirect method proof. To know that both P-1 and P+1 Euclid Numbers are necessarily prime in Indirect is what proves the Twin Primes and now, I suspect the Cramer conjecture and the Riemann Hypothesis. P.S. I do not think I need the combination of Mathematical Induction inside the Euclid Indirect IP for Cramer conjecture and Riemann Hypothesis. And where both conjectures require a single prime to exist between the smallest of intervals, the Euclid IP Indirect delivers two new primes in that smallest interval. If the interval is sqrt(p) about p, then the Euclid IP Indirect delivers two new primes of sqrt(p)+1 and p-1, provided I am understanding what the Cramer conjecture is.
