COMMENTS

Conjecture: There will always be an x such that a(x+1) - a(x) = k for k=1,2.. However, x becomes large when k > 70.

LINKS

Table of n, a(n) for n=1..60.

FORMULA

Prime(x) = the x-th prime. Pi(x) = number of primes <= x

MATHEMATICA

Table[Prime[n]-PrimePi[n], {n, 60}] (* From Harvey P. Dale, Mar 11 2012 *)

PROG

(PARI) primexmpix(n, k) = { local(x, y, z); for(x=1, n, y=prime(x)-primepi(x); z=prime(x+1)-primepi(x+1); if(z-y == k, print1(y", ") ) ) }
