@article{Odlyzko93,
author={A. M. Odlyzko},
title={Iterated Absolute Values of Differences of Consecutive Primes},
abstract={Let $d_{0}(n) = p_n$, the $n$-th prime, for $n \ge 1$, and let $d_{k+1}(n) = | d_{k}(n) - d_{k}(n+1) |$ for $k \ge 0$, $n \ge 1$. A well known conjecture,
usually ascribed to Gilbreath but actually due to Proth in the 19-th century,
says that $d_{k}(1) =1$ for all $k \ge 1$. This paper reports on a computation
that verified this conjecture for $k \le \pi(10^{13}) \approx 3 \times 10^{11}$. It also discusses the evidence and the heuristics about this
conjecture. It is very likely that similar conjectures are also valid for
many other integer sequences.},
