COMMENTS

The Gcc with Gmp program is at the bottom of the link. The link also has a PARI bisection algorithm which gives a very good approximation for the n-th prime number and the n-th twin prime number. For example the 10^10-th lower twin prime approximation is 6100475249386, this has a relative error of 0.000000698... from the actual a(10) above.

The 10^n-th upper twin prime is given as a(n)+2 = (5,109,3823,79561, 1260991,18409201,252427603,...). - M. F. Hasler, Dec 06 2008

FORMULA

a(n) = A001359(10^n) [From M. F. Hasler, Dec 06 2008]

EXAMPLE

The first 10 lower twin primes are 3,5,11,17,29,41,59,71,101,107. So 107 is the 10-th lower twin prime.
