Prime quadruplet 23620, 152141, 1028789, 7188960, 51672312, 381226246, 2873279651 . The constant representing the sum of the reciprocals of all prime quadruplets, Brun's constant for prime quadruplets, denoted by "B", is the sum of the reciprocals of all prime quadruplets: with value: This constant should not be confused with the Brun's constant for cousin primes, prime pairs of the form ("p", "p" + 4), which is also written as "B". The prime quadruplet {11, 13, 17, 19} is alleged to appear on the Ishango bone although this is disputed. Excluding the first prime quadruplet, the shortest possible distance between two quadruplets {"p",
Prime number theorem Dusart proved: The proof by de la Vallée Poussin implies the following. For every , there is an such that for all , As a consequence of the prime number theorem, one gets an asymptotic expression for the th prime number, denoted by : A better approximation is Again considering the th prime number , this gives an estimate of ; the first 5 digits match and relative error is about 0.00005%. Rosser's theorem states that This can be improved by the following pair of bounds: The table compares exact values of to the two approximations and . The last
