Comments

Related to the even terms of A070897. If a(n)>0 then there is a simple pairing whose sums involve just 1 (if r=1) or 2 primes. For the case n=2, which corresponds to A070897(4), the numbers 1,2,3,4 can be paired with 5,6,7,8 so that the sums are 11 and 7 (the primes obtained when r=3).

Example

a(3)=2 because 12+r and 6+r are both prime for only 2 values of r: 1 and 5.

Mathematica

For[lst={}; n=1, n<=100, n++, cnt=0; For[k=1, k<2n, k=k+2, If[PrimeQ[4n+k]&&PrimeQ[2n+k], cnt++ ]]; AppendTo[lst, cnt]]; lst
