COMMENT

We list the twin primes in staircase fashion as follows.

3

5_5

__7_11

____13_17

_______19_29

__________31_41

_____________.._..

________________tu(n)_tl(n)

______________________tu(n+1)

...

where tl(n) = n-th lower twin prime, tu(n) = n-th upper twin prime. Then a(n) = tl(n) + tu(n) + tl(n+1).

PROGRAM

(PARI) g(n) = for(x=1, n, y=twinu(x)+twinl(x) + twinl(x+1); print1(y", ")) twinl(n) = / *The nth lower twin prime. */ { local(c, x); c=0; x=1; while(c<n, if(ispseudoprime(prime(x)+2), c++); x++; ); return(prime(x-1)) } twinu(n) = /* The nth upper twin prime. */ { local(c, x); c=0; x=1; while(c<n, if(isprime(prime(x)+2), c++); x++; ); return(prime(x)) }
