FORMULA

If k is a natural number then a(4k+31)=41; a(4k+32)=131; a(4k+33)=37 and a(4k+34)=11.

EXAMPLE

a(1)=433640083 so b(1)=nextprime(433640083)=433640093 and c(1)=nextprime(433640093)=433640101 hence a(2) equals largest prime factor of 433640083+433640093+433640101.

But 433640083+433640093+433640101=1300920277 is prime so a(2)= 1300920277.
