COMMENT

Conjecture: k > 0 for all n.
For all primes p < 1000 there exists a k such that p + 2^k is prime. However, for p = prime(321) = 2131, p + 2^k is not prime for all k < 30000. The conjecture may be in question. Similarly, I cannot find k such that p + 2^k is prime for p = 7013, 8543, 10711, 14033 for k < 20000. - Cino Hilliard (hillcino368(AT)gmail.com), Jun 27 2005
prime(80869739673507329) = 3367034409844073483, so a(80869739673507329) = -1 since 2^k + 3367034409844073483 is covered by {3, 5, 17, 257, 641, 65537, 6700417}. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Feb 08 2008
