Conjecture: (i) a(n) > 0 for all n > 2.

(ii) If n > 2 is neither 18 nor 30, then n can be written as k + m with k > 0 and m > 0 such that A000009(k)^2 + A047967(m)^2 is prime.

(iii) Any integer n > 4 can be written as k + m with k > 0 and m > 0 such that A000009(k)*A047967(m) - 1 (or A000009(k)*A047967(m) + 1) is prime.

Example

a(15) = 1 since 15 = 13 + 2 with A000009(13) + A047967(13) = 18 + 1 = 19 prime.
a(18) = 1 since 18 = 3 + 15 with A000009(3) + A047967(15) = 2 + 149 = 151 prime.

Mathematica

p[n_, k_]:=PrimeQ[PartitionsQ[k]+(PartitionsP[n-k]-PartitionsQ[n-k])]
a[n_]:=Sum[If[p[n, k], 1, 0], {k, 1, n-1}]
