A120292 Absolute value of numerator of determinant of n X n matrix with elements M[i,j] = prime(i)/(1+prime(i)) if i=j and 1 otherwise. 5

%N Absolute value of numerator of determinant of n X n matrix with elements M[i,j] = prime(i)/(1+prime(i)) if i=j and 1 otherwise.

%C Some a(n) are equal to 1 (n = 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, 14, 15, 16, 17, 23, 31, 34, 35, 39, 41, 43, 50, 51, 56, ...).

%C a(58) = 3599 = 59*61 is not prime. - _T. D. Noe_, Nov 15 2006

%C Most terms are prime or 1.

%C Numbers n such that a(n)>1 and is not prime are listed in A141779(n) = {58, 282, 367, 743, 808, 1015, 1141, 1299, 1962, 2109, 2179, 2397, 2501, ...}.

%C Composite terms are listed in A141781 = {3599, 118477, 210589, 971573, 1164103, 1901959, 2446681, 3230069, ...}.

%C Note that all listed terms of A141781 are semiprime, for example: 3599 = 59*61, 118477 = 257*461, 210589 = 251*839, 971573 = 643*1511.

%C Conjecture: All composite terms are semiprime.
