A060324 a(n) is the minimal prime q such that n(q+1)-1 is prime, that is, the smallest prime q so that n = (p+1)/(q+1) with p prime; or a(n) = -1 if no such q exists. +0

COMMENT

A conjecture of Schinzel, if true, would imply that such a q always exists.

EXAMPLE

1 = (2+1)/(2+1), so the first term is 2; 3(2+1)-1=8 which is not prime, yet 3(3+1)-1=11 is prime (3 = (11+1)/(3+1)) so the 3rd term is 3.
