COMMENTS
No other k exists, for k <= 6000. - Dimitris Zygiridis (dmzyg70(AT)gmail.com), Jul 25 2008
The next number in the sequence, if one exists, is greater than 10944. - Robert Price, Mar 16 2010
Borrowing from A139074 another term in this sequence is 26737. There may be others between 10944 and 26737. - Robert Price, Dec 13 2011
There are no other terms for k < 26738. - Robert Price, Feb 10 2012
EXAMPLE
a(11) = 3562 because 3562 is the 11th natural number for which k!/9 + 1 is prime. 3562 is the new term.
