Comments

A geometric-arithmetic progression of primes is a set of k primes (denoted by GAP-k) of the form p r^j + j d for fixed p, r and d and consecutive j. Symbolically, for r = 1, this sequence simplifies to the familiar primes in arithmetic progression (denoted by AP-k). The computations were done without any assumptions on the form of d. Primality requires d to be multiple of 3# = 6 and coprime to 7.

Example

d = 1494 then {7*7^j + j*d}, j = 0 to 5, is {7, 1543, 3331, 6883, 22783, 125119}, which is 6 primes in geometric-arithmetic progression.

Mathematica

p = 7; gapset6d = {}; Do[If[PrimeQ[{p, p*p + d, p*p^2 + 2*d, p*p^3 + 3*d, p*p^4 + 4*d, p*p^5 + 5*d}] == {True, True, True, True, True, True}, AppendTo[gapset6d, d]], {d, 0, 100000, 2}]; gapset6d
