A160245 a(n) = index of the n-th prime in A051301 (least prime factor of m!+1) 0

%I #5 Mar 14 2023 03:40:02

%S 2,1,1,2,2,1,1,2,2,1,1,1,1,2,2,1,3,2,2,6,1,3,3,1,1,1,1,1,2,1,1,2,3,1,

%T 2,1,1,2,1,1,2,1,2,1,1,2,1,1,4,1,2,1,1,3,3,2,2,3,1,1,1,5,3,2,1,2,1,1,

%N a(n) = index of the n-th prime in A051301 (least prime factor of m!+1)

%C Because of Wilson's theorem A051301(p-1)=p for every prime p. Hence a(n)>0, and since A051301(k)>k, a(n) is actually finite.

%C The first 18 values of the sequence were calculated with Maple. The others were derived from T. D. Noe's b-file for b051301.txt.

%e a(17)=3 because A051301(15)=A051301(43)=A051301(58)=59, and there are no other occurrences of 59=17th prime number in A051301.

%p a:=proc(n) option remember; local k,l,p: p:=ithprime(n): l:=0: for k from 0 to p-2 do if A051301(k)=p then l:=l+1; fi; od; l+1; end;

%t prev={}; Table[p=Prime[n]; s=Select[Complement[Range[0,p-1],prev], Mod[ #!+1,p]==0&]; prev=Union[s,prev]; Length[s], {n,100}] (* _T. D. Noe_, May 12 2009 *)

%Y Cf. A051301, A115092.

%K nonn
