Conjecture: (i) a(n) > 0 for all n > 5.
(ii) If n > 5 is not equal to 19, then phi(k) + phi(n-k) - 1 and phi(k) + phi(n-k) + 1 are both prime for some 0 < k < n.
(iii) If n > 5, then (phi(k)/2)^2 + (phi(n-k)/2)^2 is prime for some 0 < k < n.
(iv) If n > 8, then (sigma(k) + phi(n-k))/2 is prime for some 0 < k < n, where sigma(k) is the sum of all positive divisors of k.

EXAMPLE
|
a(6) = 1 since (phi(3) + phi(3))/2 = 2 is prime.
a(7) = 1 since (phi(3) + phi(4))/2 = 2 is prime.
a(10) = 1 since (phi(4) + phi (6))/2 = 2 is prime.
a(13) = 1 since (phi(3) + phi(10))/2 = 3 is prime.
a(20) = 1 since (phi(4) + phi(16))/2 = 5 is prime.
