COMMENT

a(9)=0. Proof: Both p-1 and p+1 are even and composite hence 9=1+8 and 9=2+7 are ruled out, the only possibilities that remain are 9 = 3+6, or 9=4+5. 3+6 is ruled out as 4 is the only even number with 3 divisors. 4+5 is ruled out as 16 is the only even number with 5 divisors.

a(15) = a(19) = 0 is also provable. - David Wasserman (wasserma(AT)spawar.navy.mil), Nov 17 2005

EXAMPLE

a(10) = 11, tau(10) = 4 and tau(12) = 6, 4+6=10.

a(16) = 41, a(17) = 101.
