A234475 Number of ways to write n = k + m with 2 < k <= m such that q(phi(k)*phi(m)/4) + 1 is prime, where phi(.) is Euler's totient function and q(.) is the strict partition function (A000009). 14

%N Number of ways to write n = k + m with 2 < k <= m such that q(phi(k)*phi(m)/4) + 1 is prime, where phi(.) is Euler's totient function and q(.) is the strict partition function (A000009).

%C Conjecture: a(n) > 0 for all n > 5.

%C This implies that there are infinitely many primes p with p - 1 a term of A000009.

%e a(6) = 1 since 6 = 3 + 3 with q(phi(3)*phi(3)/4) + 1 = q(1) + 1 = 2 prime.

%e a(76) = 1 since 76 = 18 + 58 with q(phi(18)*phi(58)/4) + 1 = q(42) + 1 = 1427 prime.

%e a(197) = 1 since 197 = 4 + 193 with q(phi(4)*phi(193)/4) + 1 = q(96) + 1 = 317789.

%e a(356) = 1 since 356 = 88 + 268 with q(phi(88)*phi(268)/4) + 1 = q(1320) + 1 = 35940172290335689735986241 prime.
