A118539 Adjacent generalized Fermat primes. 2

%I #29 Nov 17 2019 15:49:22

%S 3,3,3,75,113,2163,63739,13221,54809,3656571,6992033,125441,103859115,

%N Adjacent generalized Fermat primes.

%C a(15)=87888967 but a(14) is unknown. - _Jeppe Stig Nielsen_, Mar 17 2018

%C The prime pair related to a(14) was found four days ago, and today double checking has proved that they are indeed the first occurrence for n=14. - _Jeppe Stig Nielsen_, May 02 2018

%F a(n) is the smallest number such that (a(n)+1)^(2^n)+1 and (a(n)-1)^(2^n)+1 are both prime.

%F a(n) = A217993(n) + 1. - _Jeppe Stig Nielsen_, Feb 27 2016

%e a(11)=6992033 because 6992034^2048+1 is prime, 6992032^2048+1 is prime and no smaller pair of bases differing by 2 gives a pair of primes with the exponent 2^11=2048.

%Y Cf. A217993.
