COMMENT

If n+1 is prime then a(n)>A085063(n); if n+1 is not prime then a(n)=A085063(n).

EXAMPLE

a(3)=2 because 3+2=5 and 3*2+1=7 are prime;

a(8)=5 because 8+5=13 and 8*5+1=41 are prime,

MATHEMATICA

Reap[Do[Do[If[PrimeQ[{n+x, n*x+1}]=={True, True}, Sow[x]; Break[]], {x, 2, 100}], {n, 120}]][[2, 1]]
