COMMENTS
For p = prime(n), Boyd defines J_p to be the set of numbers k such that p divides A001008(k), the numerator of the harmonic number H(k). For harmonic primes, J_p contains only the three numbers p-1, (p-1)p and (p-1)(p+1). It has been conjectured that there are an infinite number of these primes and that their density in the primes is 1/e.
Prime p=A000040(n) is in this sequence iff neither H(k) == 0 (mod p), nor H(k) == -A177783(n) (mod p) have solutions for 1 <= k <= p-2. - Max Alekseyev, May 13 2010
