COMMENTS
Called "central primes" in A166251, not to be confused with the central polygonal primes A055469.
The primes tabulated in intervals (2*prime(k),2*prime(k+1)) are
5, k=1
7, k=2
11,13, k=3
17,19, k=4
23, k=5
29,31, k=6
37, k=7
41,43, k=8
47,53, k=9
59,61, k=10
67,71,73, k=11
79, k=12
83, k=13
89, k=14
97,101,103, k=15
and only rows with at least 3 primes contribute primes to the current sequence.
For n >= 2, these are numbers of A164368 which are in A194598. - Vladimir Shevelev, Apr 27 2012
EXAMPLE
Since 2*31 < 71 < 2*37 and the interval (62, 74) contains prime 67 < 71 and prime 73 > 71, then 71 is in the sequence.
