COMMENT

Primes p such that s1=p, s2=6s1+1, s3=6s2+1 and also s4=6s3+1 are primes forming a special chain of four primes. Fifth term in such a chain cannot arise. See A085956, A086361, A086362.

FORMULA

{p, 6p+1, 36p+7, 216p+43} are all primes, where p is prime.

EXAMPLE

First chain is: {61,367,2203,13219}; 319th chain is {1291391,7748347,46490083,278940499}; entries in chains are congruent to {1,7,3,9} mod 10.
