In this paper we give a survey of conjectures and results on this topic and point out the connection between this problem and series for $1/\\pi$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v11", "updated": "2014-02-20T13:16:55.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11E25", "11B65", "11A07", "05A10" ], "keywords": [ "conjectures", "squarefree positive integer", "sufficiently large primes", "rational numbers", "denominators" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011arXiv1103.4325S" } } }
