Write the prime gap (g_n:=p_{n+1}-p_n). Then [ u_{n+1}>u_n \iff \frac{p_{n+1}}{n+1}>\frac{p_n}{n} \iff n(p_{n+1}-p_n)>p_n \iff g_n>\frac{p_n}{n}=u_n. ] So the question is asking whether **a positive proportion of prime gaps exceed the “average spacing so far”** (p_n/n) [[nomath]](which, by the prime number theorem, is …
