COMMENTS

In the example, 37 is the only number possible for 2k=22. Twinl#(1)= 3 and 3+22 = 25, not prime. Twinl#(n), n>2, is a multiple of 11 so adding 22 will always result in a multiple of 11 and not prime. If k is a multiple of a lesser twin prime, then the number of primes in twinl#(n)+2k is finite.

FORMULA

Define twinl#(n)as the product of the first n lesser twin primes. Then if twinl#+2k k=1,2,3... is prime, list it.

EXAMPLE

Twinl#(2) + 2*11 = 37, the first prime 22 greater than twinl#(2).

PROG

(PARI) twiprimesl(n, a) = { local(pr, x, y, j); for(j=1, n, pr=1; for(x=1, j, pr*=twinl(x); ); y=pr+a; if(ispseudoprime(y), print1(y", ") ) ) } twinl(n) = \The n-th lower twin prime { local(c, x); c=0; x=1; while(c<n, if(isprime(prime(x)+2), c++); x++; ); return(prime(x-1)) }
