COMMENT

A109925(a(n)) > 0, complement of A118954;

A118957 is a subsequence.

The lower density is at least 0.09368 (Pintz) and upper density is at most 0.49095 (Habsieger & Roblot). The density, if it exists, is called Romanov's constant. Romani conjectures that it is around 0.434. - Charles R Greathouse IV Mar 12 2008
