%N Least number k such that k*n/(k-n) is prime or 0 if no such number exists.

%C a(n) is nonzero for n in A006093.

%C When a(n) is nonzero, a(n) = n*(n+1).

%F a(A006093(n)) = n*(n+1).

%e 2*k/(k-2) is an integer when k=1,2,3,6. The only prime is when k = 6 (2*6/(6-2) = 3 is prime). Thus a(2) = 6.

%o (PARI) a(n)=for(k=1,n*(n+1),if(k!=n,s=(k*n)/(k-n);if(floor(s)==s,if(ispseudoprime(s),return(k)))))

%o n=1;while(n<100,print1(a(n),", ");n+=1)

%Y Cf. A006093.

%K nonn

%O 1,1
