%N Numbers k such that mu(k) = mu(k+2), where mu is the Möbius function (A008683).

%C a(n) seems to be asymptotic to c*n with c near 3.73. Probably c = 1/(3A/2 + 1 - 12/Pi^2) ~ 3.729994018, where A ~ 0.322634099 is the product over all primes p of 1 - 2/p^2.

%e 3 is a term since mu(3) = mu(5) = -1.
