COMMENTS

There are no more such n up to n=150. Computed in collaboration with Ray Chandler.

FORMULA

Numbers n such that (prime(n)-1)! + prime(n)^9 is prime, where prime(n) is the n-th prime.

EXAMPLE

a(1) = 9 because (prime(9)-1)! + prime(9)^9 = (23-1)! + 23^9 = 1124000729578760341463 is the smallest prime of this form.

a(2) = 10 because (prime(10)-1)! + prime(10)^9 = (29-1)! + 29^9 = 304888344611713875008649975869 is the 2nd smallest prime of this form.

a(3) = 17, but prime(17) = 59 yields a number that would take 2 full lines of this page; and a(4) = 137 because prime(137) = 773 yields a prime of this form which is 1975 digits long. Note also that 773 = prime(137) = prime(prime(34)).
