Comments

The differences a(n+1) - a(n) appear to grow without bound while the difference 2 appears to occur infinitely often.

Formula

a(n) = floor(prime(n)*prime(n+1)/(prime(n)+prime(n+1))) where prime(.)=A000040(.).

a(n) = floor( A006094(n)/A001043(n) ) - R. J. Mathar, May 29 2009.

Example

a(5) = floor(prime(5)*prime(6)/(prime(5)+prime(6))) = 5.
