In a thesis submitted to the California University, Henry W. Stager discusses the properties of numbers which contain no factors of the form p (kp + 1), where p is a prime and ^ is a positive integer. He conjectures that the number of sucb numbers, (P's as he calls them) and the number of primes within a given limit differ asymptotically by a constant.
