Using the first 100,000 values of varphi(n)varphi(n) it seems that the following is true.
Let mathcalAmathcalA be a finite subset of mathbbNmathbbN, forallninmathbbNsetminusmathcalAforallninmathbbNsetminusmathcalA, displaystylefrac1varphi(2n)−frac1varphi(2n+1)geqslantfrac12nln(2n)displaystylefrac1varphi(2n)−frac1varphi(2n+1)geqslantfrac12nln(2n).
Is this true? Is there a stronger lower bound?
P.S.: I looked at Handbook of Number Theory I by Mitrinović and Sándor which has a lot of info about varphi(n)varphi(n) but it doesn't appear there.
