%N Primes p where the prime race 12m+1 versus 12m+7 is tied.

%C Primes p such that pi_{12,1}(p) = pi_{12,7}(p), where pi_{m,a}(x) is the number of primes <= x which are congruent to a (mod m). For the first 5 billion primes, pi_{12,7}(p) >= pi_{12,1}(p). If exists, a(9) > 122430513841.

%t s={};Do[p=Prime[pp];If[Length[Select[Prime[Range[pp]],Mod[#,12]==1&]]==Length[Select[Prime[Range[pp]],Mod[#,12]==7&]],AppendTo[s,p]],{pp,100}];s (* _James C. McMahon_, Mar 03 2025 *)
