Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

COMMENTS
Goldston-Graham-Pintz-Yildirim prove that this sequence is infinite; in particular infinitely often a(k) = A189982(n) = A189982(n+1) - 1. In fact, their proof shows that at least one of the residue classes 355740n + 47480, 889350n + 118700, or 592900n + 79134 contains infinitely many terms of this sequence.
