Comments

Conjectures: (a) This sequence is strictly increasing beginning with n=7. (b) If p is the smallest prime with p > A002182(n)+1, then p-A002182(n) is prime. This is a strengthening of a conjecture regarding A117825.

Formula

a(n) = A202472(A002182(n)/2) for n>1.

Example

a(5) = 3, since A002182(5) = 12 = 23-11 = 19-7 = 17-5.

Crossrefs
