What kind of hash do miners create when opening a new block?

Hello, I have a question that I can not answer through Google. What is the mathematical complexity when opening a new blockchain block and why is each subsequent one more difficult than the previous one? If anyone has links, I'd appreciate it.
Thank you.

The block checksum must be less than a certain value ("target"), and this value is constantly decreasing (every 2016 blocks, i.e. about once a day).
