COMMENTS
Subsequence of A006093.
It is unknown whether this sequence is infinite. If S = (n!+k)/(n+k), when k > 1, there are finitely many n-values that make S an integer. When k = 1, there are infinitely many n-values that make S an integer (A006093).
a(8) > 4725.
If it exists, a(8) > 6778. - J.W.L. (Jan) Eerland, Aug 15 2022
If it exists, a(8) > 22500. - Michael S. Branicky, Aug 19 2024
EXAMPLE
(4!+1)/(4+1) = 5 is prime. Thus, 4 is a member of this sequence.
