COMMENTS
a(n) = last prime in the first run of n primes such that p+4 is semiprime for each prime p in the run. - Sean A. Irvine, Feb 13 2012
a(n) > 5 * 10^9 for n > 13.
EXAMPLE
a(2)=31 is the largest in a set of 2 consecutive primes {29,31}, and 29 + 4 = 33 = 3*11 and 31 + 4 = 35 = 5*7 are both semiprime. No smaller number has this property.
59 is not in the sequence because although 47 + 4 = 51 = 3*17 and 53 + 4 = 57 = 3*19 are both semiprime, 59 + 4 = 63 = 3*3*7 is not.
