Statement

The name Schinzel-Sierpinski conjecture is used for two related conjectures:

  • For any positive rational number r, there exist prime numbers p,q such that r=p+1q+1. A stronger version of the conjecture asserts that there are infinitely many such pairs of prime numbers.
  • For any positive rational number r, there exist prime numbers p,q such that r=p1q1. A stronger version of the conjecture asserts that there are infinitely many such pairs of prime numbers.
