A155557 A proximate-prime polynomial sequence generated by 2n^2 - 2n + 53089. Produces 634 primes in the first 1000 terms. (A proximate-prime polynomial is a finite polynomial equation that is derived from four successive - proximate, or neighboring - primes.) 1

COMMENTS

Quadratic derived from four successive primes: 53089, 53093, 53101, 53113. Produces more primes in the first 1000 terms than any other quadratic derived from 4 successive primes under 1000000. (This includes 41, 43, 47, 53 = n^2 - n + 41, which produces 582.)

FORMULA

a(n) = 2*n^2 - 2*n + 53089.

a(1)=53089, a(2)=53093, a(3)=53101, a(n)=3*a(n-1)-3*a(n-2)+a(n-3) [From Harvey P. Dale, Jul 19 2011]

G.f.: x*(-53089+106174*x-53089*x^2)/(x-1)^3 [From Harvey P. Dale, Jul 19 2011]

EXAMPLE

For n=14, 2*(14^2)-(2*14)+53089 = 53453
