%C See A273595 for further information and (cross)references.

%C From the initial values, the sequence seems strictly decreasing, with a(n+1) - a(n) = (prime(n+1) - prime(n))/2; however, this property does not persist beyond n = 16.

%C This is the subsequence of A273770 with indices n corresponding to odd primes 2n+1, see formula. - _M. F. Hasler_, Feb 17 2020

%H <a href="/index/Pri">Index to entries related to primes produced by polynomials</a>.

%F a(n) = (81 - prime(n))/2 for 1 < n < 17.

%F a(n) = A273770((prime(n) - 1)/2). - _M. F. Hasler_, Feb 17 2020
