In this paper we provide a new elementary proof that the inequality ϕ(n) > π(n) holds for all integers n ≥ 91, an old result of L. Moser. Our proof is based on Bonse’s Inequality. This makes it somewhat simpler than Moser’s proof, which in turn relies on Bertrand’s Postulate.

Abstract
In this paper we provide a new elementary proof that the inequality ϕ(n) > π(n) holds for all integers n ≥ 91, an old result of L. Moser. Our proof is based on Bonse’s Inequality. This makes it somewhat simpler than Moser’s proof, which in turn relies on Bertrand’s Postulate.File in questo prodotto:
