Abstract: We show that there exist infinite sets $A=a_1,a_2,dots$ and $B=b_1,b_2,dots$ of natural numbers such that $a_i+b_j$ is prime whenever $1leqi<j$.

Review text

The authors prove two assertions on the Erdős question [\textit{P. Erdős}, Astérisque 24--25, 295--310 (1975; Zbl 0305.10050)] but for prime numbers. The first statement is given with an additional assumption, while the second statement, proved without the additional assumption, is formulated as follows: There exist two infinite sequences \(\{a_1< a_2< \ldots \}\) and \(\{b_1< b_2< \ldots \}\) such that number \(a_i+b_j\) is prime whenever \(1\leqslant i< j\).
