(Greetings from The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences!)
A087859 a(n) = the number of twin primes x-1,x+1 such that x=j*(p(n)#)/p(k), where 1<=j<p(n+1) and 1<=k<=n and p(k) doesn't divide j. 2
0, 1, 3, 7, 8, 10, 15, 13, 13, 15, 10, 12, 15, 15, 18, 13, 22, 15, 23, 19, 23, 16, 19, 16, 22, 13, 15, 20, 23, 14, 18, 27, 20, 20, 16, 25, 21, 25, 14, 27, 21 (list; graph; refs; listen; history; internal format)

COMMENTS

p(n) is the n-th prime; # denotes primorial (A002110).

a(n) seems to grow like 4 log p(n).

EXAMPLE

a(3)=3 because for j,k=(1,3),(2,3),(3,3), j*(5#)/p(k)+-1 are primes.

CROSSREFS

Cf. A002110, A087941, A088968.
