COMMENT

p divides a(p-1) for prime p = {2, 5, 13, 37, 463, ...} which apparently coincides with A064384(n) = {2, 5, 13, 37, 463, ...} Primes p such that p divides 0!-1!+2!-3!+...+(-1)^{p-1}(p-1)!. - Alexander Adamchuk (alex(AT)kolmogorov.com), Jun 14 2007

GCD(a(n), a(n+2)) = A124779(n) is either 1 or a prime 2, 5, 13, 37, 463, ... = A064384. - Jonathan Sondow (jsondow(AT)alumni.princeton.edu), Jun 12 2007
