[seqfan] Re: New seq A284172 from David Sycamore looks interesting

[Vladimir Shevelev]

A fine structure!

In motivation of that, I submitted a simpler 
sequence A284278. If to suppose that there 
are only finite primes p such that 2p-1 is also
primes, then, by your result, there is a place 
where A284172 would be generated by the
same  rule as A284278. 

 It is well known that the problem of the
infinity of such primes is unsolved up to now.

Best regards,
Vladimir

If I'm not mistaken, one has for n > 6,
a(2n+1) = 2n+3 if (n+2 is prime or n+1 is a P-prime), and 2 else,
a(2n)   = 3n+2 if n+1 is a P-prime, and n+2 else,
where I defined a P-prime as a prime p such that 2p-1 is prime (there
is probably a standard term for that property).
