On Prime Numbers Between kn And (k+1)n

Authors: Wing K. Yu

In this paper along with the previous studies on analyzing the binomial coefficients, we will complete the proof of a theorem. The theorem states that for two positive integers n and k, if n ≥ (k −1), then there always exists at least a prime number p such that kn < p ≤ (k+1)n. The Bertrand-Chebyshev’s theorem is a special case of this theorem when k =1.
