    Abstract:

Denoting by $(r_n)_{nge1}$ the increasing sequence of the numbers $p^alpha$ with $p$ prime and $alphage2$ integer, we prove that $r_{n+1}-2r_n+r_{n-1}$ is positive for infinitely many values of $n$ and negative also for infinitely many values of $n$. We prove similar properties for $%% r_n^2-r_{n-1}r_{n+1}$ and $frac{1}{r_{n-1}}-frac{2}{r_n}+frac{1}{r_{n+1}}$ as well.
