COMMENT

This is analogous to Sophie Germain semiprimes A111153 and the chains shown are analogous to Cunningham chains of the first kind and Tomaszewski chains of the first kind. Define a 3n+1 semiprime chain of length k. This is a sequence of semiprimes s(1) < s(2) < ... < s(k) such that s(i+1) = 3*s(i) + 1 for i = 1, ..., k-1. Length 3: 111, 334, 1003; 142, 427, 1282. Length 4: 35, 106, 319, 958; 86, 259, 778, 2335; 187, 562, 1687, 5062.

FORMULA

{a(n)} = a(n) is an element of A001358 and 3*a(n)+1 is an element of A001358.

EXAMPLE

n s(n) 3*s + 1

1 15 = 3 * 5 46 = 2 * 23

2 35 = 5 * 7 106 = 2 * 53

3 38 = 2 * 19 115 = 5 * 23

4 39 = 3 * 13 118 = 2 * 59

5 55 = 5 * 11 166 = 2 * 83

6 62 = 2 * 31 187 = 11 * 17
