Is the sum of the reciprocals of Ramanujan primes divergent?

129 Views Asked by At

I have read many a wonderful proof that the sum of the reciprocals of the primes is divergent and I know that the sum of the reciprocals of twin primes does not diverge, but do we know any results concerning the sum of the reciprocals of Ramanujan primes?

The divergence follows from the bounds $2n\ln2n < R_n < 4n\ln4n$ (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramanujan_prime).
