The Legendre Conjecture is a conjecture in number theory. It had been presented more than a century ago yet still unsolved. It is one of the famous Landau's Problems.

Statement

The conjecture states that there is a prime between every two pairs of consecutive squares of integers. I.e., for each integer $n$ there exist a prime number $p$ such that

\[n^2 < p < (n+1)^2\]
