Table of n, a(n) for n=1..58.

Example

For n=1, prime(n)=2, and the ratios generated are (3-2)/1=1 (not prime), (5-2)/1=3 (prime, first), (7-2)/1=5 (prime, second), and so a(1) = 5.

Prog

(PARI) r is the occurrence desired 1=first, 2=second etc. diff2sqp2(n, r) = { forprime(q=3, n, c=0; forprime(p=q+1, n, y=(p-q)/(q-1); if(y==floor(y), if(isprime(y), c++; if(c==r, print1(y", "); break)) ) ) ) }
