COMMENTS

These primes are candidates for fortunate numbers (A005235).

These are precisely the primes available for the solution of Aguilar's conjecture or Haga's conjecture in Carlos Rivera's The Prime Puzzles and Problems Connection, (conjecture 26). Aguilar's conjecture states that at least one prime will be available for placement on each row and column of a p x p square array. Haga's conjecture states that just p primes are required for such placement in any p x p array. - Enoch Haga (Enokh(AT)comcast.net), Jan 23 2002
