Let b(n), c(n) and d(n) be respectively, smallest number m such that phi(m-n) + sigma(m+n) = 2n, smallest number m such that phi(m+n) + sigma(m-n) = 2n and smallest number m such that phi(m-n) + sigma(m+n) = phi(m+n) + sigma(m-n), we conjecture that for each positive integer n, a(n)=b(n)=c(n)=d(n). Namely we conjecture that for each positive integer n, a(n) < A244446(n), a(n) < A244447(n) and a(n) < A244448(n). - Jahangeer Kholdi and Farideh Firoozbakht, Sep 05 2014

EXAMPLE

n=10: k=13 because 13-10 and 13+10 are both prime and 13 is the smallest k such that k +/- 10 are both prime
4-1=3, prime, 4+1=5, prime; 5-2=3, 5+2=7; 8-3=5, 8+3=11; 9-4=5, 9+4=13, ...
