A061576 Smallest prime of irregularity index n. 9

%I #32 Aug 24 2018 01:59:17

%S 2,3,37,157,491,12613,78233,527377,3238481,381348997,1767218027

%N Smallest prime of irregularity index n.

%C By convention 2 has irregularity index -1; regular primes (the first is 3, see A007703) have index 0; an irregular prime of index n >= 1 is an irregular prime p (see A000928) such that p divides exactly n Bernoulli numbers B_{2i} with 2i < p-1.
