%N Odd primes p with (p^2 - 1)/4 - prime((p - 1)/2) and (p^2 - 1)/4 - prime((p + 1)/2) both prime.

%C By the conjecture in A235805, this sequence should have infinitely many terms.

%H Zhi-Wei Sun, <a href="/A235806/b235806.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..10000</a>

%e a(1) = 7 since neither (3^2-1)/4 - prime((3-1)/2) = 0 nor (5^2-1)/4 - prime((5+1)/2) = 1 is prime, but (7^2-1)/4 - prime((7-1)/2) = 12 - 5 = 7 and (7^2-1)/4 - prime((7+1)/2) = 12 - 7 = 5 are both prime.
