A228144 Smallest k > n such that j*10^k + m*10^n - 1 is a prime number for at least a pair {j,m} with 0 < j < 10 and 0 < m < 10. 1

%N Smallest k > n such that j*10^k + m*10^n - 1 is a prime number for at least a pair {j,m} with 0 < j < 10 and 0 < m < 10.

%C The prime numbers are the sum of a near repdigit number starting with the digit j followed by k digits 0 and a nearepdigit number starting with the digit (m-1) followed by n digits 9 for m>1, or for m=1 a repdigit number with n digits 9.

%C The first primes are :

%C 109, 1399, 13999, 139999, 1199999, 16999999, 289999999, 2099999999, 10999999999, 239999999999, 1099999999999, 34999999999999, 349999999999999, 2399999999999999.

%C Conjecture: there is always at least one k for each n.

%e 1*10^1+1*10^2=109 prime so a(1)=2.
