A090800 r when numerator(Bernoulli(2*n)/(2*n)) and numerator(Bernoulli(2*n)/(2*n*(2*n-r))) are different and n is minimum for some integer r for the first i irregular primes. These include entries when the irregularity index > 1.

Comments

This is a generalization of the concept in A090495 and A090496. One can change the code below from p = iprime[x] to p = prime(x) and see that data for only irregular primes is generated.

Formula

Given a = numerator(Bernoulli(2*n)/(2*n)) and b = numerator(a/(2*n-r)) for integer r positive or negative, then n>0 n = p + r/2. For every irregular prime p there is an r such that n is minimum.

Prog
