Example

k = 263 provides a chain of 9 "polynomially consecutive" primes as follows: {49993, 50441, 50891, 51343, 51797, 52253, 52711, 53171, 53633}.

Prog

(PARI) isp(x) = isprime(x^2 - 79*x + 1601);
lista(kmax) = {my(v = vector(9, k, isp(k))); for(k = 10, kmax, if(vecprod(v) == 1, print1(k - 9, ", ")); v = concat(vecextract(v, "^1"), isp(k))); } \\ Amiram Eldar, Sep 27 2024
