Every greater of twin primes (A006512), beginning with 13, is in the sequence.
A very simple sieve for the generation of the terms is the following: Let p_n be the n-th prime. Consider consecutive intervals of the form (2p_n, 2p_{n+1}), n=1,2,... From every interval containing at least one prime we take the first one and remove it from the set of all primes. Then all remaining primes form the sequence. Let us demonstrate this sieve: For primes 2,3,5,7,11,... consider intervals (4,6), (6,10), (10,14), (14,22), (22,26), (26,34), ... . Removing from the set of all primes the first prime of each interval, i.e., 5,7,11,17,23,29,... ,we obtain 2,3,13,19,31, etc.
This sequence and A164368 are the mutually wrapping up sequences:
a(1) <= A164368(1) <= a(2) <= A164368(2) <= ...
Following the steps to generate T(n,1) in A229608 provides an alternate method of generating this sequence. - Bob Selcoe, Oct 27 2015
