%N Primes p such that (p+1)/2, (p+2)/3 and (p+3)/4 are also primes.

%C Are all terms == 1 (mod 10)?

%C Subsequence of A005383, of A091180 and of A036570. - _R. J. Mathar_, Aug 01 2009

%C Since (p+2)/3 and (p+3)/4 must be integer, the Chinese remainder theorem shows that all terms are == 1 (mod 12). - _R. J. Mathar_, Aug 01 2009

%C All terms are of the form 120k+1: a(n)=120*A163625(n)+1. - _Zak Seidov_, Aug 01 2009

%C Each term is congruent to 1 mod 120, so the last digits are always '1': For all four values to be integers it must be that p = 1 (mod 12). As p is prime, it must be that p = 1, 13, 37, 49, 61, 73, 97, or 109 (mod 120). In all but the first case either (p+3)/4 is even or one of the three expressions gives a value divisible by 5 (or both, and possibly the same expression). - _Rick L. Shepherd_, Aug 01 2009

%C {6*a(n))_{n >= 1), is a subsequence of A050498. Proof: with p = a(n) the arithmetic progression with four terms of difference 6 and constant value of Euler's phi, namely 2*(p-1), is 6*(p, 2*(p+1)/2, 3*(p + 2)/3, 4*(p+3)/4). Use phi(n, prime) = phi(n)*(prime-1) if gcd(n, prime) = 1. Here n = 6, 12, 18, 24 and prime > 3 for p >= a(1). Thanks to _Hugo Pfoertner_ for a link to the present sequence in connection with A339883. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Jan 11 2021
