A224793 Least prime p which generates exactly n primes of the form p+q-1 where q < p is prime, or 0 if (conjecturally) no such p exists. 0

%I #14 Nov 14 2022 23:05:10

%N Least prime p which generates exactly n primes of the form p+q-1 where q < p is prime, or 0 if (conjecturally) no such p exists.

%C a(n) = 0 for n = 20, 165, 467, ... . Do there exist infinitely many such values of n?

%C These values of 0 are all conjectural. - _Robert Israel_, Apr 28 2021

%e a(1) = 5 since 5 is the least prime that generates exactly one prime 7=5+3-1 of the given form. Again a(3) = 13 since 13 generates exactly 3 primes 17=13+5-1, 19=13+7-1 and 23=13+11-1 of the given form.

%t Cn[n_] := Module[{c}, p = Prime[n]; c = 0; i = 1; While[i < n, If[PrimeQ[p + Prime[i] - 1], c = c + 1] i++]; c]; t = {};

%t Do[p = 0; j = 0; While[++j < 2000 && p != 1, If[Cn[j] == k, AppendTo[t, Prime[j]]; p = 1, p = 0]]; If[p == 0, AppendTo[t, 0]], {k, 0, 200}]; t

%Y Cf. A072669, A224748.

%K nonn

%O 0,1
