A175073 Primes q with result 1 under iterations of {r mod (max prime p < r)} starting at r = q. 3

%N Primes q with result 1 under iterations of {r mod (max prime p < r)} starting at r = q.

%C Subsequence of A175071.

%C Union of a(n) and A175074 is A175071. - _Jaroslav Krizek_, Jan 30 2010

%C The terms in A025584 but not in here are 2, 2999, 3299, 5147, 5981, 8999, 9587, ... , apparently those listed in A175080. - _R. J. Mathar_, Feb 01 2010

%C a(n-1)=A156828(n) in the range n=3..348, but afterwards the sequences differ because numbers like 2999 and 3229 are in A156828 but not in here. - _R. J. Mathar_, Mar 01 2010

%C Conjecture: under this iteration procedure, all primes eventually will yield either a 2 or a 1. If a 2 results, all subsequent terms are zeros; if a 1 results, all subsequent terms are -1s. The conjecture is true for the first 2 million primes. - _Harvey P. Dale_, Jan 17 2014
